“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.”
“I enjoy going here every Saturday before working out. I started going to this place last year. I always get the loaded potato bowl. It’s always worth the wait. They are quick, efficient, and all around kind.”
“We were here last night with my family for my birthday. They were the absolute sweetest. They accommodated our large party, our food was out in a timely manner, it was absolutely delicious, and they made sure to wish me a happy birthday in the sweetest way! The pan fried dumplings are my favorite!”

“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.”
“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.”

“My husband & I recently came in & picked up a couple pies each of all the 9 available flavors. We’re pretty new to the fried pie thing & we have definitely been missing out. I especially liked the Coconut & Chess so far. The pastry/crust was so light & flaky. Sharing 1 pie is even enough to be sweetly satisfying and these pies, in my opinion are pretty stuffed. It was so nice to talk to the owner & hear about her business & story as well. Would definitely recommend!”
“Had lunch today with my aunt- and everything we had was great, but the highlight was the service! Our server was Chloe, she was great! Her service was ON TIME! Her greeting, her timing, recommendations and salesmanship was definitely next level! You can imagine our surprise when we found out that this was her 3rd day out of training!!! She was amazing!”
“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.”
“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.”

“The food was good, the chicken was small like I like it (I hate bionic wings), I wish I would have gotten the extra hot bc my hot wings were mild to me. Also the fries were overcooked. But, I didn't come here to say that, I came to rate the customer service, which was a 10 out of 10. The young lady greeted every person that walked through the door, even when she was busy. There was a rude dasher that came in and thought he could jump to the front of the line, nope! She didn't miss a beat and took everyone in the order they came in. She also replace my flat soda, which most places are apprehensive of replacing after you have drunk out of it. Lastly, that off putting smell as you walk in needs to be handled, all I want to smell when I walk in to a wing place are wings!”
“Sippin Nutrition is a Family Oriented place to enjoy many form of healthy snacks, meal replacements, drinks, and much more. They go way out to satisfy their customers. Highly Recommended”
“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!!”

“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.”

“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!”

“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 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.”
“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”
“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!”
“Very delicious food, the curry's, golden chicken, spring rolls, garlic and black pepper chicken LOL, you get it food is cooked made to order and I enjoy it every time. A hidden gem for sure!”
“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.”

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

“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 get Dixie wing often. And I must say they are the best wing place in the area. American deli and wing city don’t have nothing on this place. American deli nasty in general..
But, I never have any problems ordering my food the blonde kid and the girls that work there give good customer service..
But yall should try 10pc combo with 5 lemon pepper and 5 teriyaki! Thank me later 🤣”
“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.”
“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”
“An awesome place. I go everyday sometimes twice. The girls are always on it and pleasant. love my teas.”

“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”

“We had our Club Meeting there on Wednesday, Feb 16.2022. The climate upon entering very inviting. So peaceful and the aroma met our hungry senses at the door. Our hostess was very professional, on point every moment. Our Food was plentiful , pretty and delicious. Will tell others about this wonderful eating place. Thank you!”
“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!”

“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”

“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.”
“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”
“Ordered avocado turkey sandwich and it was saturated in butter to the point I could not eat the bread. Bacon was extra salty. Waitress just disappeared - restaurant was not busy. Had to wait for waitresses to get refills on drinks then she was gone again until it was time to pay.”

“This location routinely provides the best quality food, the most incredible customer service and team that genuinely gives positive energy throughout the entire dining experience.
I would like to recognize the two individuals today that made the experience great yet again. Eddie at the window and Narvechia who had impeccable customer service and a wonderful attitude. Great job guys. Best location in the Columbus/Phenix City area hand down”

“I have been to Jersey Mike’s in Phenix City, AL several times and each time has been a pleasant experience. The food is fresh and tasty, and the place is very clean and shiny. They have great drink options and also offer chips and cookies. I can’t say enough about the excellent staff. They truly take pride in their work. They are also super friendly! Overall it is a pleasant experience every time. Thx!!”
“I have been wanting to go here for a while and when I tell you it was so good! From the time you walk in to the time you leave, you wouldn’t think it was a fast food place. I had the chicken sandwich combo with fries and my husband had the 6 wing combo with fried mushrooms. The fries were super good chicken sandwich was even better. My husband’s wings were definitely not the average run of the mill kind of wings. Good size for only 6 wings. Mushrooms were crispy golden brown in the outside and super moist in the middle! We had their in house made ranch and was even told by the cashier that all sauces are made in house and they even have a separate station for the sauces! I definitely liked the multiple drink choices from the regular sodas to the different flavored teas. The desserts are very creative and you get to keep the mason jar as a souvenir!!”
“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.”
“Outstanding food and service. We will return soon!”
