“Got a "to go" meal here on 4 March, 2025. Very friendly folks, assume the owners. Their kids were running the register - seemed like good kids. Food was great. Very nice selection. Took a lot of different things - all very good. I would definitely go here often if I was a local!! By far the best Chinese in town. Thanks Tonny's - best of luck to you and your family!!”

“Wow. I’m celiac, we were traveling and I stopped to get arby meat without bun and Arby’s sauce! I got my order and went out to the car. As we were backing up, another employee - Brennan - flagged us down. He said he overheard I was gluten free. He said the guy fixing my meat didn’t change gloves and would I like to get a new order. I was flabbergasted with joy! And said yes of course. He took the gluten free so serious which doesn’t always happen. People don’t understand for a celiac person, even a tiny bit of gluten from contamination can minimally make me sick and at most over time can cause cancer or other problems.
Thank you Brennan!!”

“Excellent food. Excellent prices. Excellent redneck hippy atmosphere. And the bartenders know how to pour a drink...”

“I recently visited the Subway in Vandalia and had a pleasant experience. The restaurant was clean, the staff were friendly, and my sandwich was prepared exactly as requested. The ingredients tasted fresh, and the service was quick . The dining area was well maintained, making it comfortable to enjoy my meal. Overall, it’s a reliable spot for a fresh, customizable sandwich and friendly customer service. I would definitely return again.”

“Shimoji Coffee is 5*. That’s all I can really say. Who needs overrated Starbucks when you’ve got a local, small business that deserves the support? It’s a no-brainer.”

“We went to Dennys in Vandalia, Il. today . 2/12/26. it was a great noon meal and very reasonably prices . We both had a meal on the (meals under 10 dollars) menu. I would recommend this Dennys as it was fast and friendly service, good food and reasonably priced unlike the Dennys at Effingham Illinois that is slower than snails.”
