Restaurants near Baxter

“I moved here to Baxter about two months ago and I’ve heard so many good things about Benolas. With that being said my boyfriend and I decided to bring our kids here since we haven’t tried it and our kids really wanted pizza. (I honestly was exhausted from unpacking and moving being 6 months pregnant me cooking was NOT happening lol ) All of the staff was so welcoming and was so understanding with us having a 5,4 and two year old we had a spill I felt so terrible! The lady was so sweet and helped us practically immediately! Our kids are now OBSESSED with going there for the pizza that’s “cut in squares” and I keep coming back because with this pregnancy no other ranch even tastes good. I called up and literally bought some ranch because no matter what I do no other ranch is as good as Benolas ranch! I eat the ranch practically everyday. And order from here probably twice a week minimum once I’d say 😅😂 I even ordered today, the pulled pork is AMAZING and so is the cheese balls as always ❤️😍 Every single experience I’ve had here has been nothing but amazing! I absolutely LOVE Benolas!”

“If you haven't been to Giovanni's lately, you have to go! Their salad bar is legit. Tonight they were five different kinds of micro greens, FIVE, which is the way to my heart. Everything was super fresh, and delicious. And not to mention the delicious onion rings and taco pizza. 🤤”

“Cash only. Don't go there for a decadent experience. Peoples Working environment. Interior well lighted, seating is solid clean, not boards. We always get the "bean curd" dishes. Soft fried hot squishy with vegetables what a treat.

Vegetarian options: Most. No meat eaters insist on separate cooking surfaces, I can't speak to that.”

Vegetarian options: High quality veggie burger”

I visit this location multiple times a week. Can't say enough good things about Scooter's in general, but this is my fave location! (My dog is a big fan of their pup cups and Dogust promos, too...as you can see. ?)”

“Updated review: new manager I believe and they are very pleasant. Ice cream orders have been fine. The wait is long but I don't go there expecting super fast service.”

“Check your order via Doordash for pick up or delivery; they tried to say I did not order pop today when I picked up my order when I indeed did. Otherwise, their chicken sandwich is delish! Will be back again for quick lunches.”
