Restaurants in Phenix City

“I’m not in the area often but when I am, G&G is a must for me. The staff is all so friendly. The food is good, and comes in portions that barely leave room for for dessert, which might be better than the food! 10 out of 5 stars!!”

“Outstanding food and service. We will return soon!”

“Food is delicious a must try.”

“I went to Culver's for the 1st time today with a friend. I had the Cod with fries and Coleslaw! it was very good! after finishing Seth Thomasson. brought my friend and I a sample of Custard. we were both impressed. we will be back.”

“The staff is always friendly, you are welcomed with a smile, always out in a timely manner, even while dining in, they check on you and ask for refills. I will always love chic-fil-a and will always recommend them to anyone new to the south ☺️”

“If you’re craving an unforgettable culinary adventure, look no further than Doughboy Dumplings—a hidden gem that turns traditional dumpling fare into a festival of exotic flavors. From the moment you step inside, the aroma alone promises a meal that transcends the ordinary. The menu is a playground for the adventurous palate, offering unexpected combinations and globally inspired twists that somehow feel both daring and deeply comforting. Every dumpling is a tiny, handcrafted masterpiece—flaky, tender, and packed with bold, well-balanced fillings that make each bite a discovery. But the true revelation? The Spicy Pork Noodle soup. This dish is nothing short of spectacular. The noodles are silky and springy, perfectly absorbing the rich, fiery broth. The pork is deeply savory with a slow-building heat that lingers in the best way—spiced just enough to wake your senses without overpowering the dish. Each mouthful delivers complexity: umami, a hint of sweetness, and a chili kick that dances rather than scorches. Doughboy Dumplings isn’t just serving food; they’re curating an experience. For anyone seeking bold, exotic tastes and a fresh take on comfort cuisine, this spot is a must-visit. One bowl of those spicy pork noodles, and you’ll be hooked. I can’t wait to go back, I’m already craving for more.”

“Picked up two of their pies at a gas station near me on a whim. One blueberry and one coconut. They were both delicious and perfectly fried. The dough was light and flavorful. Not too sweet, not oily at all, and the filling had a good mouth feel. Not grainy at all. The blueberry pie was really good, but that coconut pie was absolutely fantastic! Totally on another level! I’ll definitely be hitting that station up for some more of those pies this weekend.”

“Food is consistently good, prices are fair and employees are always nice”

“I would recommend the food but the customer service from one of the workers serving the food could be better, a dark skin heavy set older woman, older then me anyway…. I walked out today because I can’t stand terrible customer service. I own my business and would fire any worker who treated my customers poorly family or not. She literally had the lady in front of me scared to ask questions about her own food. I couldn’t deal with the attitude and walked out. The lady asked nicely how much for an extra piece of meat and when we heard the price we were shocked so we made a lil face. She was like it is what it is. OF COURSE it is but your attitude is not where it’s at. These folks got some good A** food don’t get me wrong I was so ready my mouth was watering but that whole thing threw me off. Do better and if you don’t like your job quit. I understand you are only one person. But it was only 2 of us in there ordering. No reason your lip should have been poked out as long as the Nile River. Have a great day”

“Great food and great service treat you like family ?”

“I stopped by Sunday on Father’s Day . The food was great. The young lady Key was so helpful and friendly”

“I liked it very much because it's clean friendly atmosphere and good customer service even during a busy day.

Wheelchair accessibility: It's definitely accessible for handicapped.”

“I have never enjoyed ribs until we discovered Smokems. Now I can’t get enough of them. These are best dry ribs anywhere, and I’m so grateful they’re conveniently located on my way home from work. 🤗 I make a meal of the ribs. Literally, no side dishes, no bread, nothing else.”

“The staff was super nice. The food was excellent, as always. I love Firehouse's sandwiches! They pile on the delicious meat, just like I like it! Honestly, I've never had a meal there that I didn't like. And the fact that they support fire departments across the country really inspires me to go back. Thank you!”

“Man oh man. I have been going here for years. I only get pineapple fried rice because it is so delicious. I want to try the pad thai if I can ever break away from the pineapple fried rice. They were closed one day and I was desperate for some pineapple fried rice so I went somewhere else. I was sorely disappointed. Not even close. This restaurant has amazing pineapple fried rice. I wish I could speak for the rest of their food. Hopefully I will soon”

“Nice Asian buffet. Reasonable choices. About $18 per person. Food was good and all you can eat.

Kid-friendliness: High chairs available. Plenty of choices for a child.”

“I give it 4 stars simply because of the customer service, she was a bit timid and seemed as if we were rushed. Overall tho everyone was satisfied with there food and it actually was pretty tasty orders were correct and fresh. I would recommend to try if your in the area looking for a nice bite”

“I love the food here, and the portion is way more than expected, they have a great variety of foods... Only thing ive ever encountered was the wrong sauce on their wings a slice of cheese cake had small area of mold"what do you expect in this southern heat" and the cashiers can be a bit on the rude side... But i have continued to order and will continue to order from this place... Despite the small issues its a top notch place to eat!!”

“What an awesome staff at this location. Thank you everyone for being so kind to Jackie and I the past few days. It was awesome spending our mornings with you and chatting with you all. We will see you all again soon.”

“We DoorDash at least once a month. Food is so good.”

“No gravy for the biscuits and gravy WTF? Disappointed”

“Great service and 😋 waffles are outstanding.”

“Awesome service. Open 24/7 Great service”

“This is my go to for breakfast Mon-Fri. Always a pleasure to stop by. Your store manager is the sweetest and always have such an amazing spirit and friendly conversation. For over 2 months now I have noticed that if she sees my vehicle, notices my voice she calls out my order for me or says good morning love drive on to the window I got you sausage scrambler no eggs, side of sausage and them donut holes. It really makes me feel special and acknowledged and brightens my day every single morning. Even the morning crew knows my order specifically once I mention no eggs
Thank you all for being caring and observant with cheery spirits so early in the morning. It doesn't go unnoticed.”

“Hands down, best chicken around. Finally stopped in yesterday and grabbed a chicken finger meal and had to go back again today for more. Perfectly cooked, MOIST, tender chicken fingers with plenty of flavor. Friendly and polite staff which is rare these days. Don't skip on this little gem.”

“great service, family feel good atmosphere. Great variety of foods to choose from. delicious cakes. I'm hooked got my dad an co-workers liking the restaurant.”

“They are CONSISTENT!! Plenty of food for the cost and the ribs are always tender & tasty! The ladies working there feel like family members…they’re sweet and efficient!!”

“The best atmosphere. The workers are kind and friendly to everyone who walks through the doors! Great bbq as well.”

“Can't explain; other than I've been eating here for over 40 years. My Dad loves hole in the wall hot dog joints. Must've rubbed off. I get 2 whole chili dogs and tots; all the way. Not sure why you can get either whole or half hot dog; I've never asked. I did splurge last visit and got the scramble dog. I think everyone should try the scramble dog at every place that they have them in search of the best scramble dog. Hidden Grill has pretty good scramble dogs. They have great slaw. Do not skip the slaw.”

“I just tried them for the first time in midland commons, and it was amazing 🤩 I was so excited to try the brisket snd they did not disappoint I love their Mac n cheese as well”

“A locally run business that must always be good, because people steadily came in for take out and dine in while we were there. Recommend getting off the main highway to try them out.”

“Food was good but the staff??? Thought I'd walked into a funeral home - everyone so somber. Lady I paid and who got our go order had the personality of the wall behind her. Found the fish to be good BUT PRICER than Rosehill.”

“We stopped to eat after a long road trip, only the drive through was open & we couldn’t fit because of our vehicle. The staff came out on the patio, took our order, and we had a delicious dinner on a beautiful night. The staff was awesome & super friendly! We don’t have a Del Taco in our town but I sure wish we did!”

“Drove all the way from Lagrange for some good food and beer! We had oysters, wings, Philly cheesesteak and a burger. Fantastic food and service!”

“Wanna thank Burgers and More ! Great food and great customer service !”

“Wings was on point crispy and fries salted just right hot. The beef nacho’s were good too. That Hennessy Rodeo was lit 🔥 ( Inbox me the recipe) 1st time and the vibe was everything. Definitely will be back got to try y’all brunch!”

“There food was bland no taste at all....didn't get the chalupa that was suppose to come on my order...”

“We usually stop here for a bite and drink once a week bc it’s convenient and the best place within a couple of miles. Not usually too crowded on Friday night around 6:30. Has Friendly bartenders, rest of the bunch not usually happy. My appetizers are good, drinks good but they’re often out of appetizers I want. And out of steak on steak night. When I’ve had a full meal here, it’s ok for the price. It’s a drive to anywhere better.”

“Smokie Pig Phenix,city is always good! Today… it was beyond the best ever!!!!!”

“Staff was super friendly! I got the Pumpkin Patch Cold Brew and it was so good! The perfect balance of sweet and coffee. Red Bull drinks are a great option too for those who don’t like coffee!”

“I love this place! The atmosphere is very welcoming. All drinks/food are "pay what you want". Everything I've tried is so tasty. They have books to read, a play area for little ones, and free wi-fi. This place is a true treasure!”

“An awesome place. I go everyday sometimes twice. The girls are always on it and pleasant. love my teas.”

“We got the Kickin Kay Lynne and a grape salad! Delicious! Staff was so incredibly friendly and the food was absolutely fresh and scrumptious!”

“Great food great employees they’re funny to cut up with and they play good music while you sit and wait for your order don’t take long tor them to fix it”

“Grape Ape's Cakes flavor is always amazing and she will. asically make any flair you want! Her designs are incredilbe and she is so talented!! Her pricing is fair and her customer service is top tier!!”

“Food is really good best around here. All the other Mexican restaurants in Phenix city including Columbus all feel the same when it comes to food. This place stands out as authentic and delicious everytime.
Only complaint is their menu can be more simplistic and an English copy could help be understood more for non Spanish speakers”

“The staff seemed to be working hard. Theyalso seemed to be working hardened not smarter. They were very busy. I got my pizza 45 min after it was scheduled to be ready and I called my order in.”

“Great 🍕 as always...would never thought this location just opened pizza was great and how we always get it from other locations! So happy we have one that delivers to our subdivision now! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“great customer service on delivery loved shaq a roni”

“We went to Arby’s on 280 tonight and had the best experience ever. Cornelius took my order which was a bit complicated- everything was delivered fast and correct. This is an experience you don’t normally get at a fast food restaurant. Thanks for the amazing service!!! The store was exceptionally clean and well maintained as well”

“A walked in and was seated right away I had to wait about 15 minutes on my food which is just fine since we was cooking chicken and it was fresh and it was good and it's got a big huge window you can just sit and watch all the traffic though up to 85 pass

Parking: Is located right on the corner so you can get out of the parking lot multiple ways go right or left on 80 or cut through and come by the old k mart”

“OMGoodness!! Y’all, we just had some homemade corndogs (yard-dogs) @ Yardbirds. They are SO good! Yum!! 😋 Had to have them after seeing Julie Smith Dunbar’s post. They did not disappoint!”

“Does this location have WiFi? According to a recent advertisement by Subway their locations have WiFi. Is that true of all of them or just the company owned locations? I’m asking because this location is inside of a convenience store with gas pumps.”

“My daughter loves coming to DQ for a treat and I love taking her every now and then. The family that runs the restaurant does a fabulous job. They are always so kind to us and are so quick getting out our food dine-in and drive thru. Thanks for being so great DQ team!!”

“Best little dive bar in Ladonia!! Everyone is welcome. 19 to enter and 21 to drink, MUST have ID!! Great food options. Sunshine & Donna behind the bar serving drinks!!”

“You had definitely better be ready for an establishment or they smoke heavily. Other than that, this place was great. The food was really good, and I guarantee you there. Cooking later than anybody else in town. Beer was cold bartender was cool!

And I have to say, these were the best buffalo wings I've had in a while. I got the medium. Because let me tell you people, Buffalo wings have two ingredients. It's hot sauce and butter. I don't know why all these places, put sugar and all sorts of other junk in there, it's butter and hot sauce.

Hideaway is doing it right, their wings were perfect!”

“The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, providing excellent recommendations. Overall, a fantastic experience!! County Nutrition keeps us teachers going thank so much for your great service!!!”

“My 50th Birthday Cake was made done by Asisha. I was so beautiful I had never seen anything like it. The taste was beyond delicious and melt in your mouth. I saved the top piece put in Freezer. We took it out 3 weeks later and it taste just like it did when I cut it on my Birthday. I have stopped by and visit the bakery. Had several different flavors of her moist delicious cakes. Wished she was open today so I could get some. looking forward to her making my cousin cake in November”

“Great food!! Reasonable prices and they load your plate up! Will definitely be going back!”

“This is the most underrated bbq spot in Phenix City Al. I was able to get a graduation catered less then 350 last min and the family thought I cooked all that food because it taste like home cooking from my grandmother”

“we are not closed ,we open and thriving come see us”

“Customer service is sorry very rude and not friendly stayed on there cell phone the hold time. Nor did they speak or say welcome as we came in.

Parking: Parking lot”

“i had it earlier today. it was amazing. i live 5 minutes away and had never been. so glad i tried it! the girls at the counter were very nice and one of them matched me 😂. definitely will be coming back. the seasoning was not skimped on.”

“We were looking for somewhere to sing karaoke one night and found this little diamond in the rough. It sits on an old putt putt course, which in itself is fabulous, with every kind of seating you could want! I chose the swing, my friend opted for the Adirondack. I also noticed a stage in the distance which (hopefully) means they have bands! Inside, we found enthusiastic greetings from regulars sitting with their beer and conversations and a bartender ready to serve us. The first thing I noticed was the bar stools with cushions made from vintage concert t-shirts. (STOP IT) Brightly colored painted walls and such with witty retro sayings written on them. Being a product of the sixties, It felt like home. Although I live in Auburn, there is no doubt that I will be back to visit this place... Sissy's Place!”

“It is not one of my favorite places, its natural waters are very delicious but their dishes have a lot to like, for everything they want to put beans, rice and guacamole ? and in zason it is not very appetizing to be honest.”

“Best wings in town. Great service. Relaxing place to eat with good music”

“I'm not in phenix city much, but i was coming from auburn and wanted some bbq so i stopped by. Got chipped sandwiches and stew. Both were really good. The chipped meat was good quality, not paste like you'll get from other places. Good atmosphere too. Give it a try.”

“I partnered with Little Caesars for a recent community event where they sponsored some of their free crazy bread tokens for the attendees of the event, and almost a whole month later attendees are still telling me how useful the tokens are, how surprised they were at the serving size, and how good the bread sticks are! Hopefully I can find a leftover token or two for myself because the word of mouth hype has definitely piqued my interest!”

“10/10 highly recommended 🙃 hot wings fries and cheese curds are all delicious 🤤 Everything was made to order and the owner even took the time out to ask us our opinions on their menu items💕(felt special☺️) Would load pictures but there’s nothing left to show🤤🫣”

“Great Service, great food and a great crew”

“Great laid back atmosphere. After a hard day of work I enjoyed relaxing with my book eating amazing food. My favorite is the Cuban sandwich with German potatoes. I even went back to try a new item on the menu a stuffed pizza. Both were delicious. The staff working was very friendly.”

“I love the schnitzel and spaetzela. I like the fact that you can gravy without mushrooms! I hate those. Everything I have eaten was excellent and I really recommend it!”

“Outstanding food and service. We will return soon!”

“Great food and great service treat you like family ?”

“we are not closed ,we open and thriving come see us”

“I stopped by Sunday on Father’s Day . The food was great. The young lady Key was so helpful and friendly”

“We visited Crawford Deli for the first time today. We had the lunch special. It was Meatloaf and 2 sides or 3 sides. We chose 2 sides. My husband had fried okra and Mac and cheese. I had cabbage and green beans. It was all fresh and. Very tasty. Destiny. The owner and cook. Wasn't happy with the Meatloaf because it fell apart. It was very moist and tasty. She had a sauce on it I have never had on Meatloaf. It was delicious. The service was good. I highly recommend the Deli! We will be returning!”

“I went to Popeye's on Hwy 80 on Monday. I ordered a leg, wing, and wanted some macaroni. I was told very sternly that I can't just order that and that it would need to be a meal which would have a biscuit. I asked could we leave the biscuit off and was told that it was free, but that it would could with my food. No problem! I got to the window and I slipped up and asked for a cup of water, offering to pay if there was a charge, and you would have thought that I cursed or something. The young lady rolled her eyes so hard that they could have fallen out of her head. She proceeded to give me the water, but with no receipt after I paid for my order. Rude doesn't really sum up the attitudes of some of these people. I truly believe that when it starts coming down to customer service alone, as to whether businesses get customers... this Popeyes will be out of business. This young lady REALLY needs to get it together. Despite this, my food hot, order correct, and the young lady did give me napkins and needed condiments, so it wasn't all bad!”

“Great food great employees they’re funny to cut up with and they play good music while you sit and wait for your order don’t take long tor them to fix it”

“This is our new go to place for BBQ. The ribs were amazing the flavor was great, they were big and full of meat. The potato salad was so good, it is home made and you sure could tell. :) The service perfect! Thank you we will be returning.”

“Nick the bartender was ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!! Drinks were perfect and his service was out of this world. I would come back just for him and our waitress Candis. Best service I’ve ever had hands down!! Food was pretty good too!”

“we visited the McDonald's this morning at 9.30 am. went inside for breakfast.. no one had cleaned the restaurant since last night. there was not one clean table and there was food, French fries and nuggets, all over the floor especially under the tables. the floor was so dirty and greasy you had to watch your step when walking. I will never go back. if your employee can walk around talking on her personal phone some one could at least cleaned. no I did not go in the bathroom .... no telling what that look like. this is the McDonald's on 280 next to the wiggly wiggly phenix city al”

“today was good but some time those worker act crazy 😂”

“The level of customer service and accountability is shot. This used to be a respected restaurant but its poor management and quality is questionable as to how they stay open with little staff and employees playing multiple roles and the customer is neglected. I want waste my time putting my money into this restaurant again. I’m just beyond disappointed and frustrated with this raggedy food. Don’t Go There just pass bye it..you’ll be better off!!”

“Just stopped at this location on our way home to Tennessee. Never had Jack's before so thought we'd give it a try. Glad we did! Burgers and chicken were great and fries were too. Food was hot and fresh. Service was fantastic. Cashier was efficient and friendly. We have a family of 8 and it was one of the easiest ordering experiences I've ever had. Food was ready super fast as well. Overall, fantastic experience!”

“Edited June 22nd (1:30am) - So finally got to try out this Sonic 'after hours' lol.

While the greeting we received when ordering wasn't nice or 'customer service friendly' the food was still good.

I ordered the chicken tenders, fries and another coffee this time without sweet cream and my husband got the double smasher. All delicious. My hubby says the fries needed seasoning but I thought they were great.

My daughter and her man orders separately and one item she order, the pizza bites?, was not in stock and they were told AFTER they ordered but Sonic replaced it with her second choice and adjusted the price before they paid. Their food came out good as well and cooked properly.

My daughter did have some confusion with the person taking the order and her man, they forget a drink due to the rudeness of the worker and her 'asking' them to repeat their order a few times, but the one who served them brought the drink to my daughter no worries. Think that nice woman knew the one who took the orders had an attitude on her.

Could have been her off night, could have been tired, whatever is was it's her job and should be done with a bit more kindness especially to people who haven't been rude to them. But I digress, the main focus is food and payment for nighttime which passed with flying colors for a Saturday night trip at 1am!

Edited June 1st - Once again an amazing place. My daughter ordered with the online app at 215pm and when we got there about 230 her food was ready, correct, and hot!

I ordered a cold brew coffee here and they got the flavoring right and even added the sweet cream I asked for.

Most of my interactions have been with them between 12-3 and they are 5Stars... haven't been here after 5pm in years, might be where all those bad reviews are coming from, might check it out for dinner one night and let you know.

For now though, still 10/10 will always recommend!

(Original review) Been here countless times and they are always super helpful and nice and the food/drinks are always on point.

First place we got a proper unicorn slush and straw.
Going to be my go to spot from now on.”

“The food is usually good, but is inconsistent and it's getting more expensive. Sometimes the burgers are dry, the fried chicken in the breakfast sandwiches are rubbery and gross with somethingslimey in the middle (that happens so often I no longer order it). I do like some of the meal deals or specials they run. The coffee options are good.”

“This is my go to for breakfast Mon-Fri. Always a pleasure to stop by. Your store manager is the sweetest and always have such an amazing spirit and friendly conversation. For over 2 months now I have noticed that if she sees my vehicle, notices my voice she calls out my order for me or says good morning love drive on to the window I got you sausage scrambler no eggs, side of sausage and them donut holes. It really makes me feel special and acknowledged and brightens my day every single morning. Even the morning crew knows my order specifically once I mention no eggs
Thank you all for being caring and observant with cheery spirits so early in the morning. It doesn't go unnoticed.”

“It is not one of my favorite places, its natural waters are very delicious but their dishes have a lot to like, for everything they want to put beans, rice and guacamole ? and in zason it is not very appetizing to be honest.”

“delicious grilled chicken BLT salad, fingers and fries for 3 picky eaters plus great ice cream. HELP! I lost my 5 diamond wedding band I think in the parking and the phone numbers posted are not answered! I can tell you exactly where we parked. we are in Atlanta so not easy for to drive and search. we were there 3-3:30. Susan and Bob. 678-231-1454 cell”

“Great Service, great food and a great crew”

“Although I only got the cheesy potatoes made fresco they were the best I've ever had from a Taco Bell. I went fairly late around 9 something pm and they still tasted fresh like they were just made.”

“GOOD FOOD GREAT PRICES REEALLY GREAT SERVICE”

“Great laid back atmosphere. After a hard day of work I enjoyed relaxing with my book eating amazing food. My favorite is the Cuban sandwich with German potatoes. I even went back to try a new item on the menu a stuffed pizza. Both were delicious. The staff working was very friendly.”

“We have been 3 times since they opened. The first time I had the cayenne chicken sandwich. It was a great sandwich, that I will order again. The last couple times I had the chicken bites. They are great. The breading is really good to me, crispy, but light and not too greasy. Fried okra has been perfect. The quality of the chicken on the sandwich and the bites impressed me, and imo the quality to price ratio is better than the other local chicken places to me. They have so many good sauce options as well! This spot will be in our rotation for sure! Employees are also helpful and kind! Have had a couple go out of their way to be of assistance.”

“It was clean and neat. They had plenty staff working or moving around the kitchen despite that it took awhile for someone to greet me. There was only a customer completing their purchase when I walked up. Yet the worker walked away after servicing that person and I stood there waiting for several minutes.”
