"Overall, my experience at the restaurant was satisfactory. The breakfast menu was fairly standard, and I chose the Southwestern omelet. However, I was disappointed that it had ground beef instead of chorizo, which made me wish I had some hot sauce to add more flavor. The loaded hash browns were a highlight and the toast was a bit burnt with no jelly. The coffee was decent, but my friends mentioned that the creamer tasted strange. Two people at my table ordered the steak and eggs, and I was impressed with the generous portion of meat they received. I will definitely be getting that dish next time."

"We had placed a reservation for 20. Somehow it got placed on the wrong night but the management was quick to accommodate. Never actually addressed the group or visited the table but Jeff, our server, did an amazing job. For 20 people, from the time we were seated till we got our check was under 75 minutes. We never wanted for anything. He never auctioned off food or drinks. Refills were placed on the table without question. Outstanding! Food, I had the bacon Jam burger. No seasoning and bacon jam was non existent. It was a good burger but nothing I'd drive for. My girlfriend had the shrimp. Good meal but again. Nothing exciting. I give it a 4 star for the amazing service Jeff provided us!!! Great job!"

"I specifically come to this restaurant for their forest chicken salad, but for the past year, it hasn't been made correctly. First, they told us they were out of chard. Then, they forgot to include the cranberries. The pecans are no longer the plump and juicy ones they used to serve. The salad itself has become confusing and unsatisfactory—if they don't have the ingredients, they should consider not offering the dish. On a positive note, my partner had the pollo chicken, and it was wonderful. Overall, they really need a good manager and a focus on staff training to enhance the dining experience."

"Had to work up in Kokomo and decided to try some Thai food for the first time. Asked for recommendations and she helped me pick out 2 orders. The food was better than I thought it was going to be. Very filling. I also tried the Thai tea and it was delicious as well. Nothing special on the looks of the place but it serves its purpose. I would definitely come back if I was in town to try something new. Worth a visit!"

"We absolutely love Dan's! Whenever we're visiting family, we make it a point to stop by since we live out of town. During my last visit, I got so caught up admiring and choosing donuts in line that I missed the Cash Only sign. Oops! Luckily, a very friendly and efficient young gentleman set my fresh selections aside while I quickly went to get cash from a nearby ATM. I was really grateful for that because they sell out so fast. It's rare for them to have day-old donuts since they’re usually gone by 9 or 10 in the morning. They’re just so delicious! We devoured them too quickly to take any photos. Lol!"

"I visited this restaurant for the first time today, and I will definitely be coming back! The food was incredible. I’m already planning to return every day just for the one-pound baked goods! The service was friendly and welcoming as well. Leslie was a fantastic bartender. This won’t be our last visit. Thank you for having us!"

"I’ve been wanting to check out Louie’s Coney Island for a long time. How me and this restaurant could be in the same town for so many years and never cross paths until today is beyond me. Anyway, I stopped in for lunch with a friend who had also never been there. The restaurant was very busy and it took several minutes before anyone took our order, but once our order was placed the food came out surprisingly quickly. We both got a Baked Hamburger and a Coney Island hotdog. My friend is perhaps a little pickier than me. He said he thought everything was so-so, and that he was glad he checked it out but would probably not eat there again. He felt that he could get a comparable coney dog elsewhere for less money, and he wasn’t a fan of the baked hamburger. I thought that the coney dog was fine, but nothing special. I really enjoyed the baked hamburger though. I would like to get it again and check out some of their other menu items; maybe the Feta Fries. For me it was a good first visit. I’ll be back."

"Did you know that you can order a crab rangoon pizza here? It definitely matches the name and tastes just as good the next day, though it may be a bit cold! Be sure to get a side of broth sticks or garlic knots with cheese – they’re definitely worth it. The cheese dip is our favorite part! We opted for takeout to enjoy at home, but the dining experience is delightful to watch while waiting for your food. In the warmer months, there’s patio seating available, complete with a beautiful backdrop for photos."

"Our group of five had a short wait to be seated on a very busy Sunday morning (10am). Our server was great, very attentive to our needs without asking. Breakfast food was great! Frittata's is our go-to place whenever I am in town. My family (locals) introduced me to Frittata's many years ago."

"I had an amazing experience today! I've been eager to try Cone Palace for some time, but I kept passing by during peak hours and seeing long lines. The food I received was hot and tasted fantastic. They were generous with the napkins and condiments, which was a nice detail. The fries were outstanding, and the grilled tenderloin was tender and packed with flavor. I also noticed that their ice cream flavors looked absolutely delicious!"

"The experience was disappointing. Given the prices, I found the quality—particularly the use of Velveeta and jarred gravy—quite lacking, especially for a $12 meal. We ordered the Manhattan sandwich and a brisket platter, which had a lot of fatty meat. On the positive side, the service and staff were good. However, I wouldn't return or recommend this place."

"I absolutely love the quality, authenticity, and value I experience every time I visit! Evangelina, the owner, is a wonderful person, and she truly runs the place beautifully. The menu upgrades, including drinks and appetizers, are fantastic! The guacamole machacado is an outstanding choice—it's authentically delicious and an incredible value at just $5.99! You typically won't find such high quality for that price. It's served in a large stone molcajete filled with perfectly ripe diced avocado, tomato, onion, jalapeño, cilantro, and lime juice, just as it should be."

"The service at this restaurant was fantastic. My daughter absolutely loved the 'Little Harvey' cheese pizza that was made just for her. I ordered the deluxe pizza, which was delicious. The breadsticks were airy and soft, and the cheese was just right. We tried both the hot and mild pizzas and they were both excellent. I would highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a delicious pizza."

"As a self-proclaimed foodie, I've dined at many exceptional restaurants, but this place truly stands out. Don’t be deceived by the vintage decor; it actually adds to the charm and drew us in. I had the best burger of my life here. The tomato was fresh from the garden, deep red, and generously covered the entire bun. The bacon was bursting with flavor and remained crisp until the very last bite. The burger itself was pressed thin, with delightful crispy edges, yet it was tender and incredibly tasty. We also tried the Strawberry Shortcake, a special on the menu, which took me back to my grandmother’s cooking. It featured a sweet biscuit that melted in your mouth, adorned with strawberries, ice cream, and whipped cream—it was absolutely out of this world! The service was exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable, making the experience even better. This has definitely found a spot on our travel map for a return visit!"

"Air conditioning was very poor or not even functioning. I formerly ate there 3 4 times, sometimes more, per week. Sadly, each subsequent visit now is worse than the prior. Grindstone seemingly constantly is rising prices, cancelation of mug club, has degrading food quality and portions, and a failing ambiance. You don 't even have the company of regulars anymore. Yet, other restraunts seem to flourish with consistent prices and menu offerings. Other restraunt price increases in the area seem very minor compared to Grindstone, while still providing a far better quality and experience. I hate leaving this review. But, my former favorite restraunt has been on constant run of rising prices with already above market pirces that contradict quality, options, and ambiance. My occasional visit only occurs now because of meeting a friend or due to staff (bartenders) who maintain outstanding service, professionalism, and personality."

"Don’t order take out. My order was no complete. My mistake is that I didn’t check the order before I left the restaurant. I called and Sandy answered the phone and was placed on hold for 5min. Not acceptable- I hang-up. Second time placed for two min on hold. I requested to speak to the man that’s behind the bar with glasses because he took my order. I explained to him the situation- and he suggested to speak to the manager- more time on hold. I gave up. I want my tip back after all the man just punched the order in the machine. Don’t waste your money!"

"from Westfield to eat my 83-year-old mother for his birthday. Was immediately set and was given plenty of time to look over the menu. Raymond sits a family with a special needs child, and child asked if he could give Raymond a hug, and he was so special. I praised him and mentioned that we were there to celebrate my mothers and my birthday, and he added a free desert at the end of our meal. Food was great, service was far beyond standard, and I am sure we will return."

"The food at Chilies was excellent; they really know how to prepare a burger and ribs. Our server, Jess, did a fantastic job. However, the cleanliness of the restaurant left much to be desired. Although they wiped down our table just before we sat down, there were still remnants of food from the previous guests. When I pointed this out to the gentleman who seated us, he simply wiped it onto the floor with a napkin. This made me look down, and it was evident that this was the norm—there was food scattered across the floor, and many areas were visibly wet, as if someone had spilled a drink without cleaning it up. On my way to the restroom, I noticed a spilled drink in the walkway with a wet floor sign placed over it, suggesting that someone had intended to clean it up soon. However, when we left 40 minutes later, it was still there. The state of the bathroom was frankly appalling. Honestly, if I hadn't absolutely needed to use it, I would have opted for a gas station instead. It’s unfortunate because the quality of the service and the food was truly lovely."

"Not sure how to start this review..... Positive first; the food and drinks were great. Hot, tasty, and satisfying. Our service on the other hand was something I may have a hard time trying to describe. Nikki was our server. I am not sure what was wrong with her. This restaurant was moderately busy but not on a wait. Nikki was distressed and out of breath our entire visit. Every table she visited she was out of breath, explained how chaotic it was, and was in tears almost with every table food drop off. She seemed as if she was acting and trying to get sympathy from each table because of her level of pain or stress. She made my husband and I uncomfortable from start to finish. My advice to this Hacienda: The management needs to be more aware of the service given by their employees. A simple table touch would be beneficial from time to time to talk to the guest. Also, observe your emoloyees while they are working. Then, maybe, you won't get reviews such as these on google."

"First time customer! We don't have this chain in GA. Loved the Butter burger. I had pretzel bites because I'm not a huge fries fan, but I did try my husband's and they were very good! Our custard creations were heavenly! I would loosely compare them to Freddie's if you're familiar with that franchise. The service was great, the staff was friendly and efficient and the entire place was very clean. Great lunch experience!"
