“My friend and I went to O'Charley's in Marion, Il, and had a great time from the minute we walked in until we left. The food was very good, and the service was, too. Our waiter, Ayden, made it a very entertaining time for us, and made us feel special. If they have an employee of the month there, we nominate him for sure! Thanks for a wonderful time!“

“Excellent food and service.“

“When we walked into Gabby & Granny's restaurant this evening we saw some old friends so we sat at their table. The food was awesome and the conversation was lively. What a great place to eat amazing food while catching up with our friends. Thank you for making this possible.“

“Don't come here if you are in a hurry. Because they are not. The parking lot was practically empty and only two tables were occupied when we arrived. We were there 25 minutes before they even dropped the country fried steak into the fryer. $5 for 3 small pieces of paper thin bacon. The gravy was cold. The group that came in much later than us had their food at the same time as us. Toilet paper in the back womens bathroom stall was not accessible. It seemed the latch that allowed that second roll to to be accessible when the first roll was gone was broken. The other toilet looked like it hadn't been flushed in some time. The eating area did appear cleanly. They did keep your coffee cup full.“

“I try to make it to Rileys at least once a week. The food there is definitely 5 stars. Never had a bad meal there, always hot and fresh and the service has always been great.“

“Love this restaurant! The food is always excellent, the service is 5 Star, and the drinks are always good! Annie is so sweet, our meal isn’t complete without her checking on us and stopping by the table to see us!“

“I recently visited the Applebee's in Marion, Illinois, and wanted to recognize an employee named Tom, who I believe works in the back of the restaurant. When I asked our waitress about him, she mentioned that he was the manager.

Tom went above and beyond during our visit. Not only did he personally bring our food out to our table both times when our waitress was busy, but he also took the time to greet us, check on how our meals were, and make sure we were having a good experience.

His friendly attitude, genuine kindness, and willingness to help did not go unnoticed. It's always refreshing to see someone who clearly cares about both the customers and the team around him. Tom helped make our visit enjoyable, and I wanted to make sure his excellent customer service was recognized.

Thank you, Tom, for making us feel welcome. We'll definitely be back!“

“Definitely recommend Walt’s pizza 🍕 great service and great food and drinks definitely will come back for some great food“

“First time at this Texas Road House. Great experience! Great food! Our server, Mandi was terrific!“

“Went with my family for supper tonight, was seated right away food was great. The reason for the 4 star review was the service. I ordered the country fried steak, it came with eggs hash browns and my choice of bread. I told my waitress I wanted biscuits and ask for butter. Then I added a order of biscuits and gravy also. when our food arrived I noticed the waitress had forgotten my biscuits that came with my country fried steak dinner. I was told they gave me biscuits with my gravy, when I asked about my biscuits n butter that came with my meal, I was told they put the biscuits with my gravy and only charged me for a bowl of gravy. When I ask why when I ask for biscuits and butter because it came with my meal (I wanted it for my eggs) I was told again She had giving me 2 biscuits. the waitress then held up 4 fingers and said you want 4 biscuits?? I said I want what came with my meal. Then again she held up 4 fingers and said if you want 4 biscuits I can bring you 4 biscuits at that point I was just fed up with the conversation and asked if I could please get some butter. The butter was cold and was not spreadable lol The entire time we were there we were not offered a refill on our drinks, two of our party of 4 finished half of there meal with no drinks. The food was really good just was really disappointed in the service.“

“My date and I thought the food was really good very fresh. My grilled chicken wrap was plenty for lunch the next day. Good size portions and good waitstaff. We had fun. We both recommend the Marion location.“

“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.“
