“the chef who puts on the show while cooking our food was just awesome. The food was awesome”

“Each half of the building give you different vibes. Front half us for a younger crowd. Back half is wood-grained, more old school. They do not make fancier drinks as the name would suggest. Beer and easily mixed drinks only.”

“Went here for a Sunday lunch. The food was good. The place was clean and pleasant. The only thing was the staff. I understand that ppl have bad days and Sundays are the worst in the food business. I was really disappointed that couldn't even fake being in a good mood and I'm not talking just one it was all of them we had 4 staff that interacted with us and they couldn't even smile let alone muster a your welcome. The plates were slightly slammed on the table like he was carrying a ton and couldn't hold it anymore. I don't see me putting this in my rotation anytime soon.”

“love it friendly staff. Great food.”

“The food is good. The service is great. My chicken was well grilled. The side veggies were tasty if not a bit over boiled. The fries were good. The fried pickle spears were excellent. This place gets the job done, as you might expect. And like their sign our front says, there’s plenty of seating.”

“Glenda B was our waitress and she did amazing! Hadnt been here in a few years due to a decline in food quality and service after covid, but i was definitely pleased with tonights food and service! Will be coming back soon”

“Daily Dose Catered a work event for me today and it was absolutely fantastic. Staff are all very friendly and the drinks and prices are absolutely great!! Would highly recommend!”

“Mi Pueblo Grill catered a rehearsal dinner for me. The food and service were great! Using the guest portal to communicate what we wanted to serve, sign the contract for our dinner, and make the payment for the dinner was such an easy process. Any questions I had were answered very promptly either by email or a phone call. I highly recommend this restaurant if you are wanting to serve a tasty Mexican meal!”

“Tanya the waitress was beyond awesome!! Greatest service we've had in a long time. Well worth the time we spent there!!! Amazing and of all the staff was like her there wouldn't be but standing room only !!”

“We have ate here multiple times. The food is so fresh with wonderful flavors. The service is excellent. The staff is so friendly, curious and gives wonderful recommendations. They have a wonderful restaurant, we will be returning frequently. We had the vermicelli noodle bowl, crispy noodles and we may have devoured the spring rolls before I got a picture.”

“Huge Portions, Great Price, Authentic.”

“Stop bye for lunch. The food was really good. The service was great. Highly recommend.”

“One of my favorite restaurants in Grand Island! They have some of the best alcoholic beverages for very reasonable prices. They were voted Best Desserts in GI and I understand why after eating the Almond Butter cake. It’s literally life changing! Can’t go wrong with any of their food menus either. Favorite appetizer I always recommend to my friends is the Truffle Garlic Toast. When I’m in a hurry, I can always call ahead with my order and just pay at pick up.”

“Wings and burgers were awesome! Owner and waitress were super nice! Great place to eat and hang out!!”

“Very nice staff and good gelato Italian ice and popcorn 👍 will definitely be back!”

“Very Good Food. All From Scratch . . Their Cole Slaw Is Amazing. . I Had The Chicken Fried Steak With Breakfast Potatoes With White Gravy. Mmmmm so Good And Our Server Jacob. . Very Friendly & Knowledgeable. . Awesome Place To Eat !!! Thank You Lee's”

“We were visiting Grand Island for a half marathon and happened to come across this place. I was struck by the fact that they only had four main dishes on the menu, which generally means that those dishes are done perfectly, which was true in this case.

None of my family had ever eaten Vietnamese food before, but the lady who served us helped us figure out how best to eat it. She wasn't judgmental at all about the fact that we obviously weren't familiar with the cuisine.

The food itself was amazing. They kept it very mild for the general Midwest palate, but they had all sorts of sauces on the table for people who preferred more spice. I think anyone with any level of experience with Vietnamese food could find something that they enjoy here. Amazing establishment.”

“What a great place to have coffee, snack and good conversation! I'm from out of town and always wanted to try this lovely place. It did not disappoint AND I will return.”

“Breakfast is the best in town. Generous servings & tasted great.”

“Good food 🍔🍺end play keno”

“I am in love with Lina’s carnitas and barbacoa burrito! By far the best around!”

“New York Pizza provided food for 70 people for our son’s wedding rehearsal dinner Friday night. HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! Felicia was so great to work with…she helped guide us through their menu options and was very attentive to our needs. She was quick to respond and had everything prepared and delivered on time. We decided on pasta with meat sauce, chicken Alfredo and garlic knots. New York Pizza did not disappoint! We received many comments on how good the food was! There was more than enough in regards to portions and garlic knots were exceptionally awesome!! Thank you for providing an amazing meal for our special event! We will be singing your praises for years to come!”

“I ordered the most basic wheat stuff, chicken tacos and a chicken quesadilla, 10/10 it was fantastic 👌🏻👌🏻”

“The bartender in the morning is OUTSTANDING and is EXTREMELY nice to everyone!”

“Their beans and rice are the best I have EVER tasted! Their tortas remind me of my moms Mexican kitchen! We will be going back!”

“Wow, that was a nice surprise. An unassuming biker bar look from the outside. Walk in, and it's all local family and friends, eating the best home made food in the area. Known for their daily specials and ridiculously great pizza. I can't overstate the pizza qualities. Get off the main drag that is highway 281. Take Old Potash Highway West and find a very relaxed place to feel at home.

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly.”

“Great food our server Octavia was friendly and did an amazing job. We had family in from out of town and had a large party- called ahead to give them a heads up and were rudely informed “we don’t take reservations” - we were not trying to make a reservation, we trying to give them a heads up - whatever. When we checked out the lady at the register hardly spoke to us and when we ask for a muffin to take home she proceeded to sack up a muffin for us - without any conversation whatsoever - then she decided to fill the cinnamon rolls before bringing out muffin to us and ringing up or ticket. Still not a word she gives my 86 year old Mom her change and say “have a good day”. My take on this Perkins -Great wait staff and food - crabby , inpatient, unhappy front of the house.”

“Disregard any bad reviews. This spot happens to be part of the GI nexus and rarely hosts a bad vibe. A lot of the world's problems are solved here on a nightly basis.”

“Man what service here. Also what great beers! Love this kind of place! Look to the top of the pillar you'll see my signature! Stop here if ipa focus is your thing. That's by no means all they have. Tanner is your guy at the wheel!”

“We had the best service. We loved the coney dogs, fries, and chilli. They have been there for 91 years. The food was great! The owner is friendly and welcoming. We drove from Lincoln, it’s so worth it!”

“You can always count on good chicken and sweet tea at Cane's restaurants. The one in Grand Island didn't disappoint. Friendly staff and the food was as expected.”

“The pupusas & horchata were delicious!! We’ll definitely be returning soon!”

“thank you so much for my beautiful wedding cakes! Beverly's Cakes did a cake for my ceremony in December and my reception last weekend. Both were beautiful and exactly what I wanted, each in their own way. thank you for making our days special.”

“So delicious!! Please come to Dallas, Texas!!”

“At La Milagrosa, I enjoy an authentic Cuban experience. The food is delicious and each dish makes me feel at home. It is a place that I recommend for those looking to savor the essence of Cuban cuisine.”

“Always friendly atmosphere!”

“Amazing place. Unlike our local DQ which is 0 stars, this one is 5 stars all around. Fast quality food, that is served correctly, fast service and a smile and thank you and more reason that is amazing!”

“Best beef and shrimp fajitas I have ever ate!!! Best quality and quantity of food with a great price!!! I recommend, I give it 5 out of 5 stars!!!”

The cake was delicious and so so well done! They delivered right to the party so it was one less thing I had to remember to grab! Thank you Jennifer!!”

“Excellent food with amazing service. Great people who work hard for your business.”

“I've been to many bars for bar food. These are the best fries I've ever had at a bar. Fresh cut, well seasoned, crispy outside. I'd go for the fries alone. The onion rings were good and the burgers were great too, lots of good variety options.”

“Nice place with friendly service, a couple of pool tables, 1 shuffleboard table, and a Touch Tunes. They do serve food, the catfish is only on Fridays fyi, and they only accept cash. That being said, they do have an ATM machine, as well as those games of chance if that interests you.”

“Probé los taquitos de carne con nopales y rajas con pollo. Los dos son muy ricos pero regresaré por más de rajas con pollo 😋! Fueron mis favoritos 🧡”

“Absolutely delicious food. Hot and fresh! Customer service is fast and friendly! Love the butter burgers, onion rings, cheese curds, and malts. 😋”

“It’s either a hit or a miss at this location. But I will keep come by for my fix.”

“Amazing food n employees very friendly, very upbeat atmosphere n decor for Halloween was amazing. Food was on point.....only down fall was kids high chair wrapped in plastic during Covid...hard to seat 2 littles 🤷‍♀️”

“Cool place to hang. One of the oldest bars in Grand Island. Crowded in the evenings. Classic bar on one side, booths on the other. Still remember, Dad took me in there 55 years ago. Was owned by Ed and Netty Ruff for years. Hasn't changed much.”

“We had Eileen's Colossal Cookies do a private cookie decorating event for our Kansas Ladies Freemasons Group at Hilton Garden Inn in Manhattan KS. The whole experience was amazing! Jared and his cookie decorators are so talented. We learned a lot and had a ton of fun! Thank you Eileen's Colossal Cookies for a exceptional evening! By the way the cookies are exceptional too!”

“Top notch! I love Pizza Ranch wherever I go. Grand Island is the 116th different location the Legendary Pizza Ranch Guest ever visited.”

I started trading with Ralph Carico and watched my profits grows on a daily basis with his amazing skills And good brokerage, I made a withdrawal without being charged a fee. I'm really indebted and Grateful for your good work and service”

“I was in a pinch. Had a medium size meeting and my catering order did not get placed. Suzanne and her team at Qdoba literally rescued us-making enough food for our group and delivering it to us within 30 minutes! Thank you for your stellar service and great food! 5 out of 5 stars in my book!”

“I moved to Omaha almost a year ago and unfortunately they don’t have pretzel maker here, only auntie Anne’s. I really deeply miss pretzel maker. Auntie Anne’s just doesn’t compare with the Quality and taste that pretzel maker does. Please come to Omaha!”

“Tabares bar is open. Friday, Saturday and Sunday!!”

“Excellent food at a great value!! 100% recommend.”

“OMG! If you have never eaten here you HAVE to try it! I'm addicted to little hole in he wall, mom and pop shops of all kinds! This place is super adorable. They make AMAZING cookies🤤🤤🤤 and other delicious foods as well and their sandwiches have some super fun names! I don't get to eat here as often as I would like but I definitely want them to stay open for as many generations as possible!! 🥰🥰🥰 I've only lived in Grand Island for 4 years but this is so far the best family restaurant I've been to here so far. I can't wait to explore and find more!!”

“I absolutely love Cold Stone ice cream! This location was maintained well and looked pretty good for only one employee working. Mixture of ice cream and toppings was done well”

“We stopped for breakfast while travelling. Wanted to find a local spot, and really enjoyed our food and service. We both got the Palace omelet with hash browns. The omelet ingredients were perfectly cooked and the hashbrowns were crispy. Our waitress was super friendly. Would definitely return!”

“First, this restaurant has a great dining room area. Loved the beach theme. There is one pizza option—a meat-haters pizza. It is all veggies with a vegan cheese option. We took this pizza to go, and when we ate it at our hotel, we wondered if any vegan cheese was left at the restaurant. It was overkill, but edible. The crust was great; it was not too thin or too thick. I won't dock the restaurant because the 16-year-old cook overused the vegan cheese, but it was a bit much—LOL. Our waitress clearly understood the vegan cheese stick request while we waited for our order. She offered that they rub the crust with garlic butter, but would substitute olive oil. They were good breadsticks.”

“If i could give zeros stars for service and Atmosphere i would. I was absolutely ignored when i walked up the the front. It took for me to ask when my coffee would be done for anyone to look at me and then i received attitude in return. She seemed annoyed to be there. With a good 6 people waiting as well. Not to mention my coffee tastes like garbage, coincidentally the woman with the attitude made it. I’m not coming here anymore. It’s been multiple times of me being ignored so I’ll go somewhere where they atleast treat people nice.”

“I was hesitant to try this restaurant because they are fairly new in the area and I'm reluctant to try new foods because normally they're disappointing and I leave having buyers remorse ? but this place did not disappoint. They are open late and the food is amazing. We ordered the #24 (chicken fajitas) and two chicken enchiladas ??? both dishes were delicious. (The enchiladas were very good) The service was quick and great. Very kind young man working the drive thru. Glad it was so late and everywhere was closed giving us the opportunity to try a place we probably normally wouldn't have went to if our favorite places had been open. Definitely adding this restaurant to our favorite places in Grand Island ?”

“Good fresh veggies. They chargeyou aNother dollar justT to get a sandwich with half theMeat one Choice and half another a different meat. They allow to choose veggies. It's a disappointment”

“This is a review of the small restaurant inside the airport at Grand Island NE. The airport is small with not a great number of flights. So they open to cater mainly to departing passengers. Arriving passengers may not be able to have a meal after arrival. Just be aware. The staff and service were great. Some of the best airport food I have eaten from a sandwich type place. The price was more like a normal restaurant than airport overpriced food.”

“✨ ✨ ☕️ we had the nicest lady that worked here she has glasses short hair says she's been working here for six years. Very kind. Let us try a sample of the original coffee first coffee is great for a little treat and we hope to see her again. She's very kind! ?”

“De los mejores tacos que eh probado en GI y la tortilla handmade 👌🏽”

“Small but pleasant place. The buffet is not very extensive but it has good options and above all good flavor. The letter is extensive. The service is pleasant and friendly, affordable prices and many options around the place for shopping. You also have the option of picking up your order from the car. Recommendable.

Parking: Enough parking space.”

“Horrible service, horrible food, soggy bread. Don’t recommend this place”

“had pizza from here this past weekend. 2 thumbs up!”

“We stopped into used to get a ice cream cake for a birthday. They ask if we would like anything written on it and which we did and they were so busy. It did take them a while for it to get it done but it was perfect and the ice cream cake was excellent.”

“Very clean, cool place great food and very nice people. Will definitely go back”

“Good clean environment, prompt service and hot food. I love Runza food, especially the onion rings.

Parking: North Webb Rd location, plenty of clean spacious parking.”

“Horrible service, horrible food, soggy bread. Don’t recommend this place”

“staff is always friendly food is top notch not sure how long they've been open it never disappoints”

“Their manager/co-owner is the kindest employee ever and they make amazing smoothies at lightning speed! ⚡️”

“My favorite JJ restaurant to go to! These guys are sandwich MASTERS! I order through the app every time I go here and they make my sandwich exactly as ordered! Keep up the GREAT work!”

“We love the selection available on the buffet. The seafood is always good! Great salads and desserts too!”

“The food and service were good, but not great; however, in spite of the fact that the temperature outside was in the 90s, the restaurant was FREEZING! The consensus was that it was somewhere between 60° and 64°. We couldn't wait to finish eating so that we could get back out into the heat!”

“I ordered a ban taco salad and saw on my receipt I was charged for beef. Sounds close when ordering so I get it. I mentioned it to the cashier and he offered to change it since it wasn't made yet. I just wish they would have added extra beans since I paid for a beef since it cost more for beef vs bean but other than that, all was good 👍”

“I was really excited about going for lunch. I wanted to eat inside, lobby was closed. I went thru drive thru and got back to work and my chips were soggy and stale. So disappointed”

“I REALLY LOVE GOING TO THEIR THE FOOD WAS GREAT. THE WAITRESS WAS NOT VERY good. I had to ask three times for a wedge of lime but never git it, so I'm not happy with her .”

“Best margaritas and food around! great staff as well!”
