Restaurants in Lancaster

“Excellent service, especially by Alec. Loved the Chilean Blue Mussels and what a take on the almighty pierogi! Pierogies with a house-made mushroom marsala sauce, PULLED SOUS VIDE DUCK LEG, carmalized onions, and spinach! Yum.”

“This was recommended by a friend,and it did not disappoint! I've never been to Italy but this is the most authentic Italian food I've ever had.we enjoyed salad with fresh mozzarella and tomatoes,homemade dressing and fresh made Italian bread that was so crispy and delicious! Then ravioli and fresh pasta with marinara sauce and mushrooms.and for dessert tiramisu and espresso cappuccino. From start to finish this meal was amazing. Everything tasted so fresh and delicious.now based on location and interior of restaurant I was thinking the prices were a little high,but I'm telling you the food will not disappoint....we were 2 couples and total meal with tip was $200.and they do not accept credit cards so plan ahead for that .(Though I did see an ATM there). The owner is a character full of great information and stories....we were the only ones in the restaurant (in middle of day) so we had his full attention and it was just an overall great experience.”

“We’ve been coming here for a few years now when we visit my parents. Lots of breweries have some decent beer, but everything here is good. Bourbon barrel? Wheat beer? Sour? Literally everything we have ever tried is GOOD. Not okay, not passable, GOOD, or often GREAT! No matter your preference, even if you’re looking for something non-alcoholic, there’s something you can enjoy here. That’s not even touching on the family atmosphere, the BEYOND stellar staff and service, or the amazing rotation of food trucks. Bottom line, this place rocks, and keeps us coming back!”

“Super great experience lady at the front was well mannered and made my sub right when I walked in. The sub was super good the sub was hot and not lacking flavor at all!”

“Love this bar!!! All around wonderful people. Not yet have I cane acrossed anyone too unbearable. I work here Day shift from 11am to 7pm Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Come in and see me anytime during my shift. If you can't make it then we have two other wonderful bar keeps you will love them also. Come in a d see us!!”

“The food is delicious, the cooks are funny and we had a great time. The whole experience was great. I would recommend going here for the food and the experience.”

“They are slowly making an effort to bounce back. Seems it's under new ownership & hopefully it will come back strong. I do hope they start offering things like coffee & hot chocolate for those who don't drink alcohol.”

“Everything from the appetizers (mushrooms and calamari) to the salad to the main course was exceptional. Best walleye ever. Good drinks. Our server Vallee was outstanding. Coming back for sure. Soon!”

“Great service with friendly people. So much better than the scrubby Columbus locations. Everything was hot and tasty and served up fast. Now granted it was Sunday night so they weren't super busy, so I don't know how it is during peak times on Fridays and Saturdays but our expectations were definitely exceeded and we'd go back in a heartbeat.”

“They have a great lunch special 9.99 entree side and drink. Fresh salad,hot fries,pizza is fabulous and boneless tenders are great. Me and my husband get a different one and share for a variety. Lancaster is great.been to one in another City wasn't as good. But Lancaster is always good.”

“Husband had the fajita burrito, I had the chicken fiesta... both were really good. Tons of veggies... great portions. They really do need to check up on you to refill drinks, etc”

“Great service! Great staff! Awesome coffee! Super atmosphere and very relaxing even when very busy. A lot of choices and options. Fun items on surrounding wall shelves for sale. My everyday go to!!”

“One of the best donut shops you will ever go to this is a mom and pop shop the donuts are always fresh and they are perfection if your passing thru please stop in and try a donut or more it's definitely worth it been going here for years you will not be disappointed”

“Stopped in here randomly for lunch on our way to a cabin in hocking hills on my birthday weekend. I am sure glad we did ! Service was great, food came out in a timely manner, the food itself was very good, I recommend getting the egg rolls to start, and they also have a nice collection of irish whiskeys ranging from jamesons to redbreast 21 and a couple different Midletons. This is definitely going to be a regular stop when down that way.Dietary restrictions: Lots of gluten-free options, and they are very knowledgeable on the matter. My wife was not afraid to get what she wanted.”

“Our waiter was a bit disgruntled because we lingered over lunch. It’s a good place to meet my brother and we meet there about every 6 months. The waiter obviously wanted us to leave so he could clean up.”

“First thing, as of now, this is a carry out only. The food was excellent. Service excellent. If you're in Lancaster, stop in for togo and head on over to Double Edge.”

“If you think your sh!t don't stink... GO SOMEWHERE ELSE !!!! Have a good day..”

“Not sure what restaurant Qualisqua went to, if here. Floors are different, waiter talked fine, plates are different. And honestly the food was amazing and well priced. Looks clean inside. Will come here often.”

“If I could give the service 10 stars, it still wouldn't be enough! The smothered cornbread was so good! Everything else looked really good, I'll definitely be back to try the wings. The sauce selection looked amazing.”

“Friendly staff, great choice of coffees & flavors (both hot & cold). The perfect ambiance to hang out with a friend & or just have quiet time by myself. Yummy treats, too! Try the drive thru if you’re on the go!”

“This was one of the best restaurants I have ever been to. The food was so fresh. I got the chicken tenders and the spuds and they were delicious! The chicken was crispy and so good. You could tell it was fresh. The spuds were amazing. They were so addicting, I couldn't' t stop eating them. The service was also amazing. The lady who took my order was so sweet. She was such a positive person and I have never had a nicer server. The place felt so cozy. It was a cute little place that made me so happy. I would definitely go there again. 10/10 recommend.”

“The bartender was awesome and she chatted and had complete understanding and a good sense of humor. I wish I had her name, the beer (Yingling) was only about 2 dollars. So I tipped her three dollars every beer. She had about 9 bucks in tips lol.”

“I love their Pizza Subs the best in town. There brownies are slammin too!”

“Best pork egg rolls ever... love the sweet and sour sauce too .. the interior needs some sprucing up but I never see anyone dining in...eat there at least once a week and it's always delicious...Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible... large entryway...no steps”

“The best in town. Thankful they are here. Wonderful, friendly family. Food is always freshly made and hot. They don't have any problems substituting anything, or letting you sample things if you don't know what it is. They're very patient with people that don't know what they want, or what these dishes consist of.”

“This place is superb. I had the Nourish Bowl with Tofu and loved everything about it. Messaged kale, hummus, quinoa, carrots, crispy chick peas and more. It was a very large serving. I definitely didn't need the tofu to fill me up!My wife had the Tuna Nicoise and she loved it. We split the Spreads Sampler, but we definitely didn't need it. Our favorite though was the Cashew Cinnamon Spread with apples.We're definitely coming back!Vegetarian options: Many options for vegans and vegetarians. Salads/bowls have satisfying ingredients like hummus, quinoa and chick peas. Tofu can be added for additional cost.Wheelchair accessibility: The bathroom is unisex and wheelchair accessible. Awesome”

“My wife and I noticed this place while we were visiting Pet Supplies Plus. We decided to grab lunch. The staff were extremely nice. They helped us through the menu, prepared the food quickly and even opened everything up for us to inspect the food. Honestly, this is as good as any Hibachi in Lancaster and it’s a fraction of the price. My wife got the steak hibachi, we couldn’t believe how much steak they gave her lol. I ordered the shrimp hibachi. The food makes you beat yourself up for not visiting sooner ✌?”

“I heard that the Long Branch had new pool sticks and bags. My wife who needed a new stick and bag due to her lost of her olds I took her there on some recommendations and these folks ( Bob) helped her out and took the Time until my wife found the Cue stick that was suited for her. Many thanks to Bob for taking patience with my best half. I said outstanding to the Longbranch! Thanks Bob!”

“These girls have done an awesome job! The food service and atmosphere is amazing!! We will be back”

“Has THEE best wings on Thursday nights! Hands down the best wings I've ever had!!! The mushroom melt is one of my favorites as well. Cheesesticks, fried mushrooms and potatoes skins are also really good. Beer is always good and cold! I highly recommend the Berne Station for a good, reasonably priced lunch or dinner. Breakfast on Sunday morning was also good!Bar Bingo on Fridays and Sundays is really fun and I love the touchtunes jukebox!!!Parking: Gravel parking lot. Plenty of available parking but can fill up quick Thursday-Saturday nights, especially when the weather is nice.Kid-friendliness: Kids welcome! I believe until 10:00 p.m.”

“Have visited this establishment on many occasions. Owners are amazing and run a friendly and professional establishment. Drink selection is great and pours are solid. Recommend Stu's Special Rum Bucket. My lady loves it! Highly recommend this establishment for your evening adventures.”

“Our server was a bit confused and we had to repeat the order three times, but this place is very nice overall. She was sweet, but confused. The pizza is always awesome!”

“For not being busy, our waitress was not up to par. I did not get her name. She was preoccupied with something somewhere in the back. I wish I would have gotten her name.”

“I've been coming here for many years, on trips to Hocking Hills, clear creek, or other points south. Always good food, but today I tried a new menu item, and it blew my mind. The barbacoa tacos are some of the best tacos I've ever had, period. They're authentic, Mexican street taco style. While everything here is good, these tacos are seriously next level. Stop in and give them a try!!”

“We had a beautiful kind lady as our server. She was probably the best server we have ever had! I believe her name was Bridget. She checked on us every time she had a chance to, I never ran out of my drink, she also boxed up our food for us! She was so kind and she joked around with us, amazing service from her! Everyone there was great!”

“Went for an after hours event, drink where delicious and painting ceramics while chatting with friends was really fun experience. Can't wait to pick up my pieces!”

“Huge selection of food. Kid, toddler friendly and very affordable options across the board. Service was prompt even with how busy they were. Can’t recommend it enough.”

“Just the cutest little " Mom + Pop " Shop as many have called it.They have GIANT MILKSHAKES ( Ig that doesn't make you happy then I don't know what would ) ?A HUGE variety of Food an Dessert options for everyone ?”

“Roosters has an all friendly staff quickly getting you service. Mondays are best getting boneless wings for only 79 cents each. Highly recommend them.During peak hours expect a wait but well worth the time you wait for the service and quality!”

“This mom and pop shop right on the outskirts of Amanda and Lancaster is top-notch! We have been fortunate enough to try many menu items and have never been disappointed. I personally could eat the brisket daily! They offer weekly specials and always have excellent pricing with generous portion sizes.”

“Reminds me of the bars from my hometown. I've been here twice and the wings are great. They fry then grill them. Makes a huge difference and the sauces I've tried have been fantastic too.”

“The food is good and ordering online for carryout is easy. They are good about special substitutions. The price is average. The last time we ordered though we noticed the portions got noticeably smaller. Otherwise this would have been a 5-star review.”

“The service was good and the atmosphere was great with football and sports memorabilia and the service was fast but need to work cleaness and add a parking spaceVegetarian options: You can get vegetarian style food I guess?”

“Probably one of the best waffle house I've been too. It's clean friendly and no violence with your meal. There's no motels all around so no drug dealers and there customers just people eating”

“Used an online deal Ordered and when I went to pick up the order it got changed but they were SO nice to help me get it fixed bc of course it was just before they were to close for Christmas Eve. So Thank you VERY much for helping fix it so we had dinner!!! ??”

“INCREDIBLE pizza. The smell alone does you in, but the food is just such a cut above. From the biggest pizza connoisseur I know who grew up with Mom at her own pizza place, my husband says it's one of the top 5 pizza places in Ohio. I must agree.”

“Absolutely delicious! Took the fam to see chef Chris on his birthday and it did not disappoint. Food is definitely awesome and massive especially for the cost. I got the Philly and was fantastic, my 7yr old stole the other half and smashed it. Good selection for everyone. Support local business.”

“Very cozy little restaurant with really good food. Very friendly staff and our server was excellent. Very attentive without being overbearing. Food was hot and delicious and our drinks never ran dry. Worth the visit if you've never been!”

“Our entire family LOVES Happy Goat! Every time we go, we have the best service and the goodies are better than most non-gluten free confections we’ve had. The owner is happy to answer any questions and always has a freezer stocked with extras (oh my…try the Buckeyes!) and a nice pantry selection too. Our Christmas order is divine!”

“When we first pulled up, we were quite skeptical. The parking lot was packed (and it's on the end of a strip mall) and the line inside was long! But we decided to give it a try anyways, and we were not disappointed. The service was excellent. The food came out SO fast. Everything we had was delicious! 5 stars!!”

“I got fried shrimp..fried oysters s and coleslaw..everything was awesome..”

“No matter what you would want to eat they have a wonderful menu that can make you anything and everything just about I suggest everybody go there at least once to try their food it is great”

“Stopped here for lunch. Matt was super nice and friendly and my pulled pork sandwich was amazing!! They had vinegar for my fries and the salad I ordered was more than expected. Overall, a great place to go!”

“Food was good. Service and atmosphere were great. Also my daughter mistakenly left her purse in the front window. I called the next day and spoke with Emily. She was fantastic. Knew exactly what we were missing and had it. Since we stopped on our way home from Spring Break it was a 4 hour drive one way to get back there. Emily offered to ship it to us. I offered to pay for it and she said she has a daughter and understands and I didn’t need to worry about it. We’re legitimately tempted to drive back from Michigan just for lunch some day to support such and wonderful establishment with fantastic people!”

“I ate the shrimp fried rice from here and it was kind of good. Got a lot of rice for what I paid for. Was definitely filling but the rice lacked in flavor just a tad so I would suggest some sauce!”

“Gotta stop here. If your hungry, I highly recommend getting something to eat here. Made to order food that is fantastic. I had the Italian Sub that is without a doubt one of the best Italian subs I've ever had and definitely the best sub I've had in a long long. And for how much? $12.95 for a 20" sub. YES, A 20" SUB MADE TO ORDER FOR $12.95. it was hot, it was delicious and a MUST STOP if you happen to be driving by . 5⭐s ALL DAY....DONT PASS IT UP. A HIDDEN GEM. THE STAFF WAS FRIENDLY THE PLACE IS CLEAN A LITTLE CROWDED BUT IT'S A COUNTRY STORE CONVENIENCE STORE I EXPECT NOTHING LESS. THE PLACE IT'S PERFECT AND A LOST LITTLE PIECE THAT'S DISAPPEARING NOT TO BE MISSED..”

“If you want the best and biggest fish sandwich, this is the place to be. They have other sandwiches as well. They have fries, cole slaw, mushrooms and the list goes on. They also have the friendliest workers that makes you feel right at home. So keep in mind Madison famous fish. They also have their trailer business that travels to various fairs and other festivals.”

“This place is totally a cute, divey corner bar. Definitely not the place that has the hottest new IPA on tap, but the regulars know your name. Very endearing, and super cheap. Also worth a visit just for the super hot smokeshow bartender Nate.”

“Had a great time there with my sister Tessie, my brother in law Kenny, and my brother monkey... The bartender Frank Spires was a very awesome, and great person... Sincerely Cindy Waits ?”

“No new tale to tell. It's usually a nice joint to grab a beer and spend time with friends and family. Historically, the food has been good, at the price point. No food on my last visit.”

“Came here for a birthday party. Drink prices were ridiculously cheap. Bartender, Krysta (sp?), was absolutely fantastic. She kept her bar in order and the drinks flowing. Parking was a bit tight & location is a bit shady, but otherwise a fun, local place to have a drink.”

“Went to the Fairfield County fair to watch the combine derby but ended up standing in line for Jimmy's! Well worth the wait and was able to get a good seat for the final round of the derby! Best burgers and well worth the wait!”

“Great local bar that sits in the prime part of downtown. The owners are awesome and present most nights, and the beer selection is solid. The "Cheers" of Lancaster.”

“We were looking for something we don't have at home for lunch while in Lancaster, and Rax popped up on maps. My wife said that's where we should go. I haven't had a Rax roast beef since the late 80's, and was very happy with my meal. The staff was very friendly, and we talked about how they're down to 4 Rax's left. We got our food and were completely satisfied! I am not a fan of Arby's (overpriced). We both had lunch and it was $20. I got the big sandwich even! Great horseradish sauce and BBQ sauce. Twisty fries were fresh hot and crispy yet soft on the inside. If we're in town again, we'll eat here again.”

“Food was great. Best Crab Rangoon we have had in quite awhile. The steamed dumplings were delicious too. Recommend the Sesame chicken and Ginger chicken. If you haven't been here definitely worth the trip.”

“Glad to see a pizza shop in river valley's food court! Decided to stop in and support local business. Got the works and a CBR (chicken, bacon, ranch) good old school pizza with a well done crust. Gotta love it!”

“My boyfriend and I went up over the weekend and they were packed! We had to wait for them to clean a table but we didn’t mind. Food came out so fast we couldn’t believe it since they were so busy. We will definitely be back! Sad it took us so long to find this hidden gem.”

“Ordered her cakes for my wedding last weekend and I loved the flavors! They were a hit! Only thing leftover was our cake for cutting but even that was slim pickings lol For reference I got the snickerdoodle, cookie dough, red velvet, vanilla, and lemon blueberry flavors.Also main cake was absolutely beautiful! I can't recommend enough!”

“Penn Station was surprisingly really good! I got the chicken parm and it tasted like they made the marinara just minutes before we got there. The service was quick as well. The sweet tea left a little bit to be desired but some people might find it just right. To God be the glory.Kid-friendliness: They are very kid friendly, but I don’t think they have entertainment for them such as coloring books.Parking: The restaurant is a strip mall you could say, so there is not much room in front of the it, but plenty of spots around it.”

“My wife’s family has been eating from mark pie for years. The food never disappoints and is always full of flavor. I highly recommend the chicken pai tai. The best I have had in my life. Their food tends to be spicier. The portions are large and fairly priced. Service at this location has always been great!”

“The place was clean and quiet. Whitney W is a great server, couldn't ask for better service! We had a great little meal stopping in here. 3 course combo and the club were awesome! Thanks”

“This is a buffet but the ladies working the dining room brought our drinks and refills and took our used plates. Lots of choices on the buffet including desserts.”

“Took my family to the e Restaurant and all the staff was very friendly. They made sure the food was out as soon as it was ready and our drinks were always filled. Love love love Cristy's East!!!”

“You don't see a lot of Managers out on the floor cleaning the tables. Especially when there is 5 to 8 workers on staff too. I just watched a lady named Haley (spelling could be off) jn Lancaster Ohio, clean this whole lobby and trash cans too. A+ Girlie....A+ Leading by example is one trait not taught. It takes a leader. Keep it up!!”

“I ordered the supreme cauliflower crust pizza and it was so good!! Such a crispy crust and loaded with toppings. Was even still very warm when they delivered it!! Will definitely order this again.”

“I took my dad out for his birthday and the bar staff went above and beyond to make sure he had a good time.. The atmosphere was uplifting..Kid-friendliness: It's a bar ??”

“This is the BEST Subway I’ve ever been to. If it wasn’t for this location I wouldn’t eat Subway at all. The food here is always fresh and the employees are always so nice! I’ve never had a bad experience here at this location. I feel like it’s family owned because the service is always amazing here and that usually means the employees are treated well!! Keep it up!”

“Blake delivered a pizza and was very professional. Pizza was done quickly and he delivered it quickly. Almsot as if he took a wraith portal from crenos to my house. Crazy.”

“I went to the Starbucks inside the Target store on Memorial Drive in Lancaster. They have a wide assortment of holiday drinks this time of year. Today was certainly a hot drink kind of day.”

“Absolutely delicious. Super healthy options. Very nice portions. Great service. I believe they will need to expand.Dietary restrictions: My sister cannot eat dairy due to bariatric surgery. She truly enjoyed the acai fruit bowl with toppings.Kid-friendliness: Extremely friendly. Enjoyed serving us.”

“To manage expectations, I am from Texas. I didn’t expect Tex-Mex from a local Taqueria. What I found was a friendly wait staff and a tasty grilled chicken covered with a surprisingly tasty queso sauce. The salsa was pretty mild for my taste, but, again, manage expectations. All and all pretty good for Mexican food in Central Ohio.”

“Friendly service excellent food. The pizza was excellent. The group had All Meat and Pepperoni with Onions Pizzas. Prices are comparable to other locations.This is one of the city's long favorite restaurants.”

“Ordered a split crave clutch via door dash (15 reg / 15 cheese) no option on door dash to make changes so I called in and they were happy to accommodate my request to modify the order.”

“I always order a BLT pizza when I eat here. It is a little pricey but never disappoints! I highly recommend getting the cheesy garlic bread as well. The staff were friendly and our waitress did a fantastic job handling our table of 7.”

“This is a great little place in Lancaster Ohio. The food is great service is amazing and the people are friendly proud. I personally don't consume alcohol and the Bloody Mary they served looked amazing and it was given a five-star rating hope you enjoy the picture of it.”

“The fish and crinkle cut fries were great..hot and fresh. Our waitress was fantastic. She was the only waitress in sight and definitely earned her money tonight....and I certainly hope she made a lot considering how busy your restaurant was.. I wish I could recall her name, because she deserves to be recognized for her hard work!”

“I've been coming to this subway for years. I wont go to my local ones. I go out of my way to come to e. Main. The employees are always on point. Ask and offer extra things like cutting or wrapping separate. Never give a side eye if you ask for more condiments or veggies. You can give them your whole order and they remember it. And they're never out of my favorite bread. Really this location should get more attention than it does. Thank you guys for being so great!Kid-friendliness: My sweet boy who is really well behaved...claimed on top of the table while I was ordering ?. I got him down but the employees never judged me. Hes 2 lol so I appreciated that”

“Expensive for families. Decided to stop here again, as we have in the past. Wife and I with two kids, meals totaled $75. While food was good, can’t afford these prices as a family dinner. Will choose other local Mexican eateries.”

“Some of the best wings around. Very underrated! Little muscular dude named Travis is always smiling. Makes my visit cool to see an employee smiling the whole time. Let's me know that they are having a good time. I'll go back.”

“One of the better Tim Hortons experiences I have had.This store is well sized with friendly and quick staff.Very friendly and helpful with any suggestions and selections, even during a rush.Vegetarian options: Plenty of baked goods or drinks that fit the vegetarian diet.”

“My husband and I NEVER agree on anything. BUT We agree that “Mediterranean on 33” is one of the best hidden gems in Lancaster.I got the calamari, and it was OK. But the “Seafood Island Pasta” was delicious. Alittle expense for me, but they are worth the money. I also got a martini for the first time. It was disgusting. But the server warned me.My husband got the “Baby Lamb Chops “ (our daughter, would have been so mad at him). He felt guilty to love them, (But he did). He had Dark beer (of some sort). But He really liked it.The only complaint that we had was, My husband left still kinda hungry. The portions wasn’t enough for him. But he got baby Lamb chops. Duh they are small. So I don’t think that’s on the restaurant fault.One more thing. The owner is smart and doesn’t give the olives out without asking. So if you are an olive lover like me. Ask for them. Those olives are SOOOO expensive and people will waste them.”
