“I set out on an adventure to find the best holiday coffee. With the new coffee places popping up, I figured I’d give them a try.. I’m a frequent customer of honeymoon on a normal day.. I tried parlor, Starbucks, donut bank, Dutch Bro’s.. scooters was on the list.. but I’m done wasting my money.. honeymoon is by far the best place to get coffee! Support your local businesses people!! Honeymoon coffee, keep taking my money 🙌🏼”

“Food is yummy yummy! Service was great!!!! I’m a longtime customer and a restaurant owner. And I love this place. The only thing I’d recommend is to stop letting the staff kick garbage under the shelves in the kitchen. As a customer watching that, it makes me think the restaurant is dirty and I’ve seen it done many times here over the years, because many bar seats have a clear view into the kitchen. I can’t tell you how many loud conversations we have overheard from the kitchen and how much trash I’ve seen kicked under the shelves. It takes two seconds to pick up the trash and disposed of it properly, so that your customers will think you are a clean, sanitary restaurant if we see that. I’m sure you are clean, but that’s a bad look.”
“If you love horses and cattle you have come to the right place. Stunning paintings on the walls to give you good feels! The bread was warm and welcoming. The roasted Brusselsprouts for a side was amazing!”
“My mom and I visited for the first time today. I have recently been diagnosed with alpha gal and was nervous eating out, but the waitress and kitchen were extremely accommodating. they took time to listen and write down my allergies as well as deliver exceptionally good food. Will definitely be back!”

“Wow! What a great experience. Mrs.Carol, what a gem! 27 years of not just experience but a true inspiration of true love of her job of “Taking care of her people” as she says it, and truly went out of her way to get what we wanted. The food was excellent but awesome service makes everything taste better! Will go back for sure.”
“Leora T. Did an amazing job! Came in with a little pop of people in the afternoon. She was alone on the floor. Was very prompt, poliet, and quick with service. Never left either out drinks and our food was put in within about 10 mins of arriving! She did amazing juggling the tables and keeping every one full and satisfied!”

“Pizza side is great. we found this gem a few weekends back.
Unfortunately, the "adult swim" portion was lacking in knowledge and communication skills when we tried to take a dive and check out that section. (3/21/26)
Yes, I was greeted. When I said oh only a few minutes left (literally 2 minutes.) I said "we would like to sit over on this side."

“Fazoli's has upped it's game since the last time I was here, which was many years ago. Back then it was black Styrofoam plates and plastic ware. Today it's real plates and real silverware, although you have to get your forks and such at the drink station. I'm not a fan of the self order kiosks either, but you don't have to clear your own table which is a bonus.
If you're feeling hungry for good Italian food but quicker and at a better price than a full-on sit down restaurant Fazoli's is the place to go.”
“Domo is always good. I love the ramen and the sushi! Whether you sit down, order to-go or even a delivery service the food is always hot, accurate and delicious”
Drive-Thru Restaurants
“Their Stromboli is great. I have been a Pizza King Stromboli guy for years. Lately, the new building on the west side Stroms have tasted like heartbreak and disappointment. That is NOT the case here. This former Pizza King guy now has a new place to get Strombolis. You should try them too.”
“Chavas Mexican Grill is one of the best places you can go if you want flavorful, authentic Mexican food. From the moment you walk in, you can smell fresh ingredients and warm spices that make you instantly hungry. The atmosphere is welcoming and lively, making it a great spot for friends and families. Everything feels fresh, colorful, and full of energy.
One of the best things about Chavas is the quality of the food. The meats are seasoned perfectly and cooked just right, whether you order steak, chicken, carnitas, or barbacoa. Their tacos, burritos, and enchiladas are packed with flavor in every bite. The rice is fluffy, the beans are rich and creamy, and the salsas add the perfect kick of spice. You can tell they care about making each dish taste authentic and homemade.
Another reason Chavas stands out is the variety on the menu. There is something for everyone, whether you like mild flavors or extra heat. They offer classic favorites along with specialty dishes that make the restaurant unique. The portions are generous, so you definitely get your money’s worth. Plus, the drinks and sides pair perfectly with the main dishes.
Overall, Chavas Mexican Grill is a place that delivers both quality and experience. The delicious food, friendly environment, and great service make it a restaurant people want to return to again and again. If you are looking for a place that serves satisfying, flavorful Mexican cuisine, Chavas is an excellent choice. It’s not just a meal — it’s an experience that leaves you full and happy.”

The manager was a very nice young lady as well, thank you and keep up the great work.”

“I’ve been dying to try the Cherry Cola Cold Brew all summer, but since I’m pregnant, I’ve been trying to limit my caffeine. I wasn’t sure if I’d be able to enjoy it but the baristas were so kind and thoughtful. They worked through options with me without making it a hassle at all. I legit teared up at how accommodating and supportive they were. And the drink? Absolutely amazing. Thank you for not only making a delicious treat, but for making me feel seen and cared for. It meant more than you know.”
“Our lunch today at Sunrise was amazing !!! I was lucky enough to get the last piece of Mira’s own Shepherds Pie & it was delicious & such a generous piece ; I was able to take home enough for a repeat . Hubby was in-gastronomic heaven with his sausages, scramble eggs & REAL HOME-FRIES , grilled to perfection with onions & followed by raisin toast . It is ALWAYS a treat here at Sunrise Cafe & the service , staff & Mira’s home baked tarts , apple fritters & pies make this a MUST EXPERIENCE. PS: Their Fresh homemade soup is to die for .”
“Gracie is amazing!! 😊 She has delicious food and always makes us feel so welcome. She made a wonderful takeout dinner for me right before Christmas, for 10 people. We had Salt & Pepper Chicken, General Tso chicken, noodles, rice, egg rolls, crab Rangoon, green beans, AND even cakes! Our family LOVED all of it! Delicious, hot and amazing as always. Thanks Gracie! 🥰”

“Me and the ole lady went their on sat night and had an amazing time. I’ve been to a lot of Irish pubs and most them should remove the name Irish pub and just be called sports bar. Patsy not only has amazing soda bread but play Irish music which I love and listen to daily myself. From the dubliners , the Pogues to few others. I love it. The pints were amazing and that Jameson bread pudding shocked us both how good that was. Gonna need a bucket of that next time and 5 gallon jug of Guinness to go. Def be back the lady who serverd us was super nice and freindly. Def a must if you love the Irish theme or heritage. 10/10 all day can’t wait to come back maybe after training sat swing by.”
“The staff are the best 🤩 Everyone is welcoming to any newbies. Great selection of craft and domestic beers as well as liquor. You can't beat a nice sunny day sitting on the porch of Horstketter's watching the world go by....”
“You will taste amazing food at Juicy Seafood. If you haven’t tried it you have to go!”

“My wife and I have celebrated birthdays and wedding anniversaries at Cavanaughs for the past six+ years. It's always a wonderful experience. The salads, shrimp cocktail and prime rib are outstanding. Yes, it's more pricey than your average chain steakhouse, but you are paying for the atmosphere, incredible view of the river and top shelf wait staff.”
“Tried Cookie Plug today & wow. the cookies are wonderful & Marcie (I think that was her name) was so friendly & helpful. Forget the other cookie places because this is the BEST”

“Avery was a great bartender and server. Always asked how I and if I needed anything..”
“Aubrey was an awesome server. She was professional casual with a great smile. The menu was explained in just the right amount of detail so that I could choose the best options. There are tons of choices and options. Everything was delivered to the table as quickly as I needed it... Not to late... Not to early... so I could enjoy the unending soup. ;)
Id definitely return again and again”
“First time at this place and it was amazing! Food and service were top tier. Our waitress was very helpful and made our dinner very special. Would come back again!”
“I thoroughly enjoyed everything about this place - when you first entered, you are met with a bubble wall but there aren't any fish inside.
After being served, I was delighted at how delicious everything tasted!
Now comes the best part - the women's room is definitely haunted. No words cam describe the unspeakable terrors, pleas still echo the corridors. The mannequin watches over you while you do your business to ensure your safe return upstairs.”

“For some reason, I can never use my rewards if I get an email offering say five dollars off 20. I can't use that and no one at the restaurant. Seems to know what to do. It's very disappointing. The food is delicious. The service is just poor. But I have rewards if I can never use them.”

“It’s a great place to eat .. I will say I was unhappy with service.. I booked the event room .. explain Arrival time was 815-830.. so when guest started to arrive at exactly 815 the room was not ready at all .. every table was filled with dishes. I had approx 20 people five or take I told them on the phone that morning.. they finally got 2 sets of 2 tables that comfortably was set up in the main dining room as 4 to table they crammed 10 chairs to these tables.. when I asked for another set of tables to be cleaned our server wouldn’t speak to me but rolled her eyes so I went to talk to someone else.. when they approached her with me she told me that she was my server. And she still has not started cleaning tables instead she told me there were 20 chairs total at those tables.. I had to get upset and told her we were crammed and everyone unhappy and told her I wanted 2 more tables cleaned.. PLEASE!!! Finally she did with an attitude and goin so slow like it killed her.. she was prob 25yr old .. then she sat out on her phone and I had to get up and get her if we needed drinks or anything. It would been a great night if had a good server.”
“We live in Columbus Indiana and go to the local Culvers a few times a month but we were in Evansville Saturday night and as we were heading back to Columbus we hadn't eaten so we drove through this Culvers. Everything was pretty decent except there was an abundance of salt on my onion rings. Who puts salt on onion rings??? I had to scrape it off just to eat them. Is it just me or has fast food service gone in the toilet the last few years?”
“Wow! What a great experience. Mrs.Carol, what a gem! 27 years of not just experience but a true inspiration of true love of her job of “Taking care of her people” as she says it, and truly went out of her way to get what we wanted. The food was excellent but awesome service makes everything taste better! Will go back for sure.”

“The location is nice. You have the river walk and the Shriner’s history to view. They have an outside patio, it was being worked on. The staff seemed friendly, expedient but new. The ambience needed something…. It was quiet. It was lunch time. I had the chicken potpie. It took a minute but it was fresh, hot, and had a good flavor.”
“I eat at Diamonds once a week, sometimes for breakfast and sometimes for dinner. No matter what I get, it’s always amazingly delicious and well above what you’d expect from a “diner”. Don’t let the word “diner” fool you with this place, because it is high quality food that always presents very well, not to mention… the portions are large as well with most things coming with 2 sides and priced very affordably. The menu is very extensive and has options for any type of craving you might have! Highly recommend!!!”
“Had Kenny’s for the first time yesterday for breakfast. Service was spot on, drinks were refilled promptly and they operated as a team taking care of each other’s tables. Food and drink prices were great, I loved Libby and Moms and the owners are doing the former business proud in my opinion. Look forward to seeing this restaurant thrive!”
