“Passing through from Grand Rapids, MI. Great food and Weezy was a delight to chat with. Ashleigh our server was on point. The guys at the end of the bar that own a local farm and go there every Friday for the cod, well that was just a bonus to chat with them. Until our next pass through, Thanks!!“

“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!“

“The Boneless wings were awesome & the mild Buffalo was amazing....LOVE the homade ranch. If u get the horseshoe, get the Buffalo fries instead of crinklecut. I ate Stuffed Pork Chops here Sooo many years ago. I would Love to see them make a comeback or get the recipe.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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!!“

“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“

“The food and staff at 54th St in Glen Carbon are great but I REALLY HATE how after the remodel they can’t open the patio doors. What is the point of even saying you have a patio when it is all closed up.“

“Raegan was the best! Food was incredible! Best home cooked meal I’ve had in months!“

“Great place for bbq!“

“I won’t say I don’t recommend as we’ve been there a couple times before and had a great experience! Last night neither of us enjoyed what we ordered, our fault, we both went against what we were going to originally order….we ate it, it’s fine, you live and learn. Our waitress is what left a bad taste. It’s like she instantly had something in her head about us or we weren’t one of her regulars that she had to cater to as she was sitting, laughing and chatting with those around us. Not friendly, short answers and would set our drinks down after being told thank you and just walk away. The only time there was even a hint of friendliness is when it came time to pay.“

“Visited Vitale’s for the first time today. Food was great, service was great, will be returning!“

“Nice old style dinner. Great Philly cheesesteak.“

“great food and reasonable prices“

“We had breakfast last Saturday, and Katie M. was an amazing server. Very attentive, and we didn't have to ask for anything, she was ways at the ready. We were taken care of without feeling like she was bugging us constantly. Will definitely be back!“

“love this place, great place to enjoy great drinks and good company!!“

“If you like local dive bars and pizza this is the place to go. Their pizza is the bomb ? The staff is friendly and most of the regulars are too. Lol. They also have an AMI jukebox, an ATM machine, several TV screens to watch sports games, and video gambling machines. They have a back patio with seating for smokers and they usually have heat out back when they remember to refill the propane tanks. It’s usually just one bartender waiting on everyone and making the pizzas in their pizza oven. Drink a cold one and enjoy the atmosphere while you wait. ??“

“Friendly staff and great food!“

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

“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! :)“

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

“Very good service the are very nice people and kindly“

“Very welcoming, extremely helpful and pleasant staff, totally a dinner experience I would want to have again. Our server was cheerful and attentive the entire time, making sure we had everything we could possibly need. And considering Colleen seemed to be the only one on duty at the time, that made her even more impressive!
My steak was cooked to a perfect medium, the mashed potatoes were some of the best I've had in some time, and all in all if you can't tell I really enjoyed this.

Can totally recommend for a clean, pleasing, stomach-filling experience.“

“very friendly gentleman working at the drive thru window. Got my order quickly, order was accurate and good was nice and warm“

“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!“

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

“The quality of our local steak and shakes have significantly improved along with the staff. Much cleaner, tastes better, and even seems more filling than it used to. On top of that the new company policies like banning microwaves, beef tallow for their fried goods, and grass fed beef for the burgers. It went downhill a while ago but I can definitely say it has done a complete 360 and has honestly been one of our families favorite quick fast food locations now. Definitely better than McDonald's.“
