Restaurants in Edwardsville

“This little spot is very nice and intimate. They require you to have a reservation but will accommodate any walk-ins if they have the availability. I loved that when you walk in you are greeted by someone immediately and they use your name if you’ve reserved a table. I was in there last week and a couple was celebrating their 1yr anniversary, the team gave them balloon’s for their table and offered them a free dessert. I thought it was really thoughtful. We will most definitely be back. Thanks again for accommodating our walk-in even with you being short handed service was still top tier.”

“I went there with friends to celebrate my birthday. The food is exceptional as was the service. I think it's my new favorite Italian ristorante!”

“Everything was excellent! we will be back”

“We live 2 hours north and were in town for a Band Competition, we stopped in to eat. Our server Jordan was fabulous. With it being our first time there the manager sent us some free deviled eggs to sample! Highly recommend the deviled eggs, so tasty! They were a little busy with several parties and took a little longer to get our food but our server was attentive and apologetic for the wait. We were not mad or upset about the wait, totally understand when it’s busy. The manager gave us a free dessert for the wait. The customer service is top notch and they seem to care about the customers. And a plus that the food is delicious!!!! Highly recommend!! We will def be back!”

“Great place, Amazing Service and the food was excellent.. Highly recommend..”

“We stopped in today for an early dinner and everything was so lovely! The bread, the salad, the pasta, the atmosphere and the service were all perfection. Kayla was our server and I can't express how wonderful she was. We can't wait to go back!”

“Great place for bbq!”

“I was at Peel Wood Fired Pizza in O’Fallon, IL on June 13, 2025. I got a pepperoni pizza, and it was delicious! On top of that, all of the staff that I saw were very professional. I strongly recommend Peel Wood Fired Pizza to anyone who likes pizza.”

“Had dinner there tonight food was great and our waitress gave us excellent service, good experience.”

“Delicious food, great drinks, friendly service, comfortable settings are what come to mind regarding this restaurant. It's definitely one of my FAVORITE restaurants in the area.”

“Not sure how this place gets rated less than 5. One of the best Mexican restaurants I have bern to. I am nit from this area. In my travels I try a lot of them. Sophia was an excellent waitress with a beautiful smile. The food excellent. The service excellent. The margaritas, love them. Must visit.”

“Great service, great for a private event. Loved it! The waiter was very nice and helpful to the guests.”

“Scotty’s is an amazing place with an awesome atmosphere! The food is absolutely delicious especially the wood fired pizza and buffalo chicken dip. They have crazy good specials on game days with .75 cent wings and $20 buckets! It’s a perfect place to hang out with friends and family.”

“Great food and such a fun time! We will definitely be back!”

“Stopped here for dinner and had the steak pasta dish. It was excellent. The salad and breadsticks are very good also. The service was great and the atmosphere is really good. Recommend the steak paata meal.”

“I am new to the area, so I had my first experience with Global Tap recently. I will definitely go back again the food was really good and you can sit outside , but I have to say the service kind of stunk. Server never really checked in, drinks were not refilled etc. I think our food sat in the window for a while because it was a little cold. The food still tasted great to me but that was disappointing. They were not really busy so not sure why such slow service. I will go back, could have just been an off day.”

“I love Just Right Eating! I get 5 meals a week and it helps cut down on meal prepping time as I sometimes get 2 meals from 1 item. All the nutrition is on each package and the food lasts a long time in the fridge. The owners are friendly and are great at answering any questions that I’ve had. It is always quick to pick up and they have delivery options as well.”

“I love this place! Excellent sushi, beautiful and clean restaurant with very friendly employees!”

“This is a wonderful place for steaks and other great food. My wife and I went in right after opening and were seated right away. Fresh rolls and butter were immediately placed before us. Hannah served us and took our order immediately. Drinks arrives within 2 or 3 minutes. We ordered the Cactus Blossom and it was presented hot and delicious within 15 minutes. Steaks came 15 minutes later, all hot and tender. Hannah checked on us several time during dinner. Great food and 5-star service! We'll be back. BTW: our bill was half that of Outback and the service was 10 times better.”

“Fast and delicious! The sweet spicy chicken was my favorite. The Mac salad was also really good. Danny was wonderful to talk to.”

“Our first time to eat here and it was delicious! Even the presentation was great and we were greeted by a very helpful and engaging man who I assume is the owner. Very nice atmosphere. Only suggestion would be more relaxing music and more veggies in the #5 crispy chicken bowl. Plenty of food! We will be back!”

“My friend took me here for my birthday! I got a picture of my favorite hippy cow, and had a fantastic lunch with primo service from Kelsi and Andrew! Fantastic place! HIGHLY recommend!!”

“We had a party of 13 recently come in and had great service! The weather was great, the big window was open and a 2 man band playing! Our group had a great time!”

“Always a favorite to visit! I wish there was a location closer to me in Shiloh but it's worth the drive. Nice staff, great food, fantastic teas.”

“northside can do no wrong. the signs remind me i need to shovel as much money to them as i can”

“Definitely recommend! Pizza was Next Level & the service was Amazing🤍”

“The ice cream is very good, but...don't plan on any "naughty" flavors at the Edwardsville store, probably ever. That aspect is very disappointing. Service is great, atmosphere good. The owners should be up-front and post "no boozy flavors" on the Edwardsville website, not just a sign inside (after you're already inside the store). The ice cream was very tasty, but I was craving something "special".”

“I ordered online and got errors stating problems with website on 12/16. I stopped by as it appeared that everything went through including the charge. I stopped by the store and the manager saw what I was seeing and worked with me to get my order processed (which was not easily resolved). He was very patient and helped get my order processed. Very nice, friendly, and helpful staff.”

“Thanks for my newest obsession…Peach, raspberry iced tea 🤗”

“Jose Silva really took good care of explaining the menu this guy was on point”

“I can’t say better things about BBM! Easily the best meal preps I’ve tried & delivering to STL is so convenient. I do love being able to go into the store because of the coffee bar. Haley (the manager I believe) is SO kind and you can tell she puts passion into the operation at BBM. The cookie dough bites + fajita bowl are my absolute faves!”

“amazing high quality food and specialty margaritas, the steak (carnitas) are top notch and worth every penny of upcharge, the crew is also top notch and ready and willing to get your order out in a timely manner, do yourself a favor and enjoy my absolute favorite steak quesadilla, this place is amazing!!!”

“Love the staff, product and the fact that they allow me to bring my pups!”

“Amazing noodles!! I will be coming back for food!!”

“I get delivery for pizza & salad, when I go to my sisters in Godfrey. Its delicious, can't wait for them to be closer to me👏👏”

“Loved our Turkish eggs and avocado toast so much we came back for an encore before leaving the area. Cafe Birdie is a wonderful cafe with delicious food, great lattes and pastries. Highly recommend!”

“The food is phenomenal!!!!”

“Ummm ok, we could not breathe when we left because of how much we ate. Everything was SO delicious. The staff was incredibly attentive and friendly (shout out to Alex!!!). It was a cozy environment and felt like I was eating at an auntie’s house. This is going to be a spot I crave and will frequent from now on. 10/10 highly recommend!”

“The Teaspoon Sandwich is a perfect blend of fresh mozzarella cheese and perfect pesto on yummy bread!! And a small salad of fresh lettuce! Also the coffee with cocoa & coconut was outstanding!!”

“The SWEETEST staff members EVER! My friend and I took her girls here for Halloween and they were dressed as a CFA worker and cow! The girls were SO excited to show them their costumes and the staff was AMAZING! They made them feel so loved ‼️”

“On my first visit I bought bingsu, bubble tea and taiyaki. Everything was great: taste, texture and customer service. Definitely worth finding something to celebrate each month (or week) with bingsu and bubble tea!”

“Amazing food, brilliant drinks, laidback and friendly staff, awesome service, fun vibes, very chill and inviting atmosphere with cool tunes and fun decor.”

“Yesterday, January 14th 2022, I was a customer at the Scooters in Glen Carbon, IL. When I drove up to cash out I noticed that the young women who was waiting on me had her mandated face mask pulled down under both her nose and mouth. To observe this was bothersome to me. I was a customer at around 2:30 p.m.”

“Very good food for a reasonable price and service was quick. Will be back!”

“We used The Cup to provide cupcakes for our wedding day. Our guests LOVED them. We are so thankful for their professionalism and help in ensuring our cupcakes were ready for our guests. I would highly recommend The Cup for a simple treat or a big event.”

“Tried their Chinese for lunch my first time. The food was great. You get a lot for what you pay for.”

“We love locally-owned Nothing Bundt Cakes in our family, especially this location. They have great service, they're always friendly and patient with our kids, and the store is clean and bright. If you've never been to a Nothing Bundt Cakes, we recommend a box of bundtinis so you can try multiple flavors. The fruit flavors are my favorites. They taste real and not artificial.”

“Their coffee & espresso are the best in town!”

“Best onion rings in the area! Great fish too”

“I had a great breakfast at American Kolache and I still think about it a few days later. Whoever made the sweet treats friday morningz they were crisp, hot and full of sweet and love. They made me feel, full at heart and like a hug from Jesus above. I've recommended Americab Kolache to all of my friends. I think they should be in the top 5 for Edwardsville Illinois and it's Czech republican sweats. I highly recommend them for any and all catering as they bring the love of the Midwest to your business. 10/10 would recommend their creme cheese kolaches.”

“We have eaten a lot of Indian and I don't know why we have put this place off for so long! Pickup only currently but everything is packed so well and thoughtfully. Super friendly. Food is incredible. Ordered several different curries and sides. So much food. Everything we had was exceptional. Get a mango lassie if you haven't had one; probably the best I've ever had.”

“The staff was very welcoming and the food was good.”

“I picked up 2 pizzas (crispy cup pepperoni and cowboy) last weekend after a long, unintentional break from PM and wow!! Edwardsville has gotten it right! They looked like they could be in the commercials and tasted amazing! Thank you for the excellent product and a reminder of one of our regular stops! Great work!”

“Great sandwich place. Lots of variety (hot and cold), quick service, meat and cheese sliced when you order. Not a lot of seating, but many get their orders to go.”

“My favorite place!! The lotus drinks are amazing!”

“great food and reasonable prices”

“Thank you to the Manager in Dierbergs today that helped my Mother and I with our food order. It was very kind of her to have assisted my Mother the way she did. Service that we def NEVER get in Wal Mart.”

“The food is absolutely amazing. The place was clean and the service was good!”

“I came here to grab lunch for my family and the OWNER was working the register . He was absolutely delightful and our food was phenomenal. Ownership like this is what America is made of. We will definitely be back and recommend 10/10!”

“My family had came today and they have been multiple times but I wanted to try it so we went. They are amazing, once you order they are quick with food even when it’s really busy, I got a drink, it was a little watered down when getting but I didn’t mind at all I still enjoyed it. They play really good music, Paramore, Deftone, and such. everyone is so nice and the food is great!”

“The food is pretty good. The salsa isn't industrial made like the other places. I have a problem with them automatically charging everyone with the 3% credit card fee even when paying with CASH.”

“I have been here 4 times in the last 2 weeks always amazing food, fast service, and a warm greeting from the amazing staff. My favorites are the meatball sub, sub on a club no mayo or mustard add ranch, and the hook and ladder. Definitely stop in and get an amazing lunch or dinner and don’t forget to sign up for their points program who doesn’t like free stuff!!”

“love there pizza and you cant get unlimited toppings”

“love there pizza and you cant get unlimited toppings”

“The food is always good, the menu has a wide variety to choose from, and the staff is friendly. This is one of the only American Legions that has a golf course and is open to the public. They are also able to host fairly large meetings in their meeting room. This American Legion also has an adult gaming room. We enjoy our American Legion Post 199 very much, and recommend it for dining, golfing, having a meeting, or just enjoying a cocktail at the bar.”

“I loved coming in here. It was a bit quiet but my husband and I went really early. I liked how the staff member asked if we needed help. I ordered a mini pizza with a salad. My husband got the Calexico and he ate the whole thing. Overall, would like to come here again.”

“Love the food!!!!!! I would go more often but parking is a real problem!!!!!”

“What a wonderful experience today at Lions Choice in Edwardsville. Pam and I had a great lunch with wonderful service. Thank you manager Crystal!”

“Just doordashed from them and it was AMAZING. Absolutely the best breakfast I’ve ever had!!!”

“A shout out to the person handling the dining room and fountain soda. She was amazing and her customer service was outstanding. Date 6/15 Time 12:30 I hope you are able to let her know. Her name tag was hidden behind her apron or we would have had her name. Wow! Dawn Mushill, CEO Customer Service and Beyond”

“Fantastic food and service! Drove 2 hours to try them out and they exceeded my expectations! Highly recommend! Will definitely be back!”

“Staff is always polite and competent, even during the everyday lunchtime rush. Very few times have I been disappointed by this location. Only complaint is that they don't have knives. The grilled cheese is very big, so I ask for it to be cut in half. But that's just me. I just find it amusing that a chain restaurant does not provide its employees knives. Unless the staff does have knives, and they are simply playing a practical joke on me. So be it: 4 stars.”

“An absolutely insane experience in a good way. the family that runs it is very nice, a small and cozy restaurant with food that blows my mind. its cheap enough for anyone to afford and is incredibly delicious. It is affordable, fast, and delicious. The portions are enormous and no matter what you will have leftovers.”

“The coffee is decent for a chain. There are a lot of different options. Price point is fair for what you get. Definitely better than Starbucks! The staff is very friendly and helpful.”

“Food was absolutely amazing! Best chips and salsa I have had n a long time!! My husband and I can’t wait to go back! Food was fire!!! 🙌🏻”

“Wonderful service , food and environment! Highly recommend”

“Edwardsville location is great! They always get my somewhat difficult order correct. Always greet me when I walk in and keep me updated with my order. Great, friendly staff. Please put the Chicken Philly On the online ordering so I can remember to get my reward points! :)”

“It must have been a bad day. The food was great, the service was good but the restaurant smelled like they were having sewage issues. I would have left immediately but we were part of a bigger group that decided to stay.”

“the lady with the cool colored hair & a leg sleeve aswell as the younger gentleman with longer hair was 10/10!! they were amazing to talk to and super nice!! the food was amazing as well! super nice workers!”

“We were greeted by the general manager and the other workers chimed in as well with a hello. Even with being busy they made sure to be friendly and checked in to make sure everyone had what they needed. The general manager made sure to share with the other employees how wonderful of a job they did. The food was very good but it's the employees that made it a wonderful place to eat.”

“Mariela took such good care of my parents and I! We love coming here. It never disappoints and is one our go to’s. The food is great, the service is quick and so friendly, and their drink selection is amazing. Thank you always and we will see you again soon!”

“Place is like a time capsule stuck in the 80s, which is a good thing, been going here since I was a child and now it is my son's favorite pizza as well.. I drive out of my way to go here at least once a year, the atmosphere and pizza are the best.”

“I tried one of their chocolate chip cookies it was very good! I definitely recommend trying it. I’ll be back again!”

“The Thai bowl with quinoa and tofu, steam veggies was delish so was the blackbean egg roll, and lobster Rangoon. This establishment was very clean and organized than the Belleville location I visited”

“awesome waitress and very friendly”

“Our family just had an amazing restaurant experience at Red Robin in Edwardsville! Our son has Down syndrome and being in public places causes him a lot of anxiety. We haven’t been to a restaurant as a family in many years because the stress for him and everyone around him was just too much. On arrival the hostess was so accommodating! She let my husband look at the table options to see what would work best for our son. She worried about skipping over us on the wait list even though we were clear that we were totally fine with waiting for the table that worked best. The manager asked a server to take on an extra table so that we wouldn’t have to wait longer. Our server, Mason, was so kind to take on an extra table for us. Mason is an excellent server. He was very friendly with our boys, kept our drinks full, and brought our food and drinks very quickly. Our meals were delivered quick and delicious. Thank you Red Robin for giving us an awesome experience!”

“Love the drive thru convenience! Haven't found a Smoothie flavor I don't like yet!”

“Today i ordered a full order of beef fried low mein, full order if chicken fried rice and an irder of chicken (6). Every bit of my order was hot and ready on arrival at the time theyvsaid it would be done. I've Doordashed and delivered food from here and said i come back and order and i don't regret it! Great customer service everytime i visit the store and very professional! I will be back! Thank you!”

“We went tonight for ice cream and Kathryn was beyond amazing. She noticed my son’s shirt and took interest in him and his interests. She was praising him and made his special night even better. It was nice having such a friendly, genuine face to walk into and chat with. She’s a great asset and hope to see her next time we’re in!”

“You guys did an amazing job with our cake! Thanks so much!!!! ❤”

“I came here for lunch during the week and the staff were quick and polite. Restaurant was clean and the food was superb. Definitely stop by if you're in the area.”

“My first time going to Freddy's. The service was great, food was ready quickly and it was very clean.
I loved the different fry dippers to choose from. My favorite was the jalapeño. The food was delicious. Wish we had one back home.”

“I don't know what is going on orders.are often wrong lately. since the new hires I order for a client simple vanilla latte. they dont come.e with whip cream and they put it on. Mostly milk not sure where we the coffee is. we also add cinnamon docle sprinkles cost extra. sometimes it's there or they put something else that reads CF. usually they are on game but sad because we may have to change locations.”

“Good and prompt service.”

“The BEST one in Glen/Ed area! The service is always on point. They know their customers damn near by order! I will go out of my way to come to this one because of the staff and the way they know how to execute my drink to perfection. They even take your orders like they want to be at work!! I enjoy them so much. Thanks to this staff for being great!”

“Had the best experience with a great bartender Chelsey!!”
