Totally Worth It: The Best Tater Tots in Rockford
I don't know what's up, but lately I've been on a serious tater tot kick. The greasy, crispy, salty little bites that hit every single time. So naturally, I had to ask around. Rockford never disappoints when it comes to food recommendations!
Let's start with my top choice: Ernie's Midtown Pub. I'm not exaggerating when I say these tots HIT. THE. SPOT. EVERY. TIME. Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, perfectly golden. You know when you keep saying "okay, last one..." and then the whole basket is empty? Yeah, Ernie's tots are that good.
