13 Best Fast Food Restaurants in Ithaca

“I love this place! The chicken is amazing!“

“Amazing Italian Food and People. Highly recommend. Staff here all rock.“

“Holy MOLY these are AMAZING. We had the al pastor, carne asada, and lengua tacos. Not only is the flavor good but they also double tortilla and give you so much meat. I got 3 thinking they would be tiny but nope, great portions. Wish I lived closer so that I could go back weekly! Outside seating great for dog owners :)
Authentic as it gets.
Thank you!“

“If you know then you know … If you don’t then you should find out. Awesome burgers !!!“

“the food was ok.... but the prices are high not to mention the atmosphere was crazy to say the least. my first and last visit I felt very unsafe“

“More importantly: The food was great and all, but the service was next level! Our server was Maddi (I hope I got the spelling right) and she was bomb! She made great recommendations, was extremely polite, always answered my questions with a smile, and worked with the kind of pride you'd expect from the business owners themselves. The food was 5 star but I'd give the service 6! *I'm not crazy about cash only or mask requirements, but that's their choice and the staff was polite about it and I have no complaints!“

“Great service, exactly as ordered. Very friendly“

“My name is Joe Slade. I came in on 6/8/2025 around 5pm. A young lady with a very professional yet inviting smile took my order. Her name was Marisa Traver and she was absolutely amazing! She was patient with me and my very limited knowledge of the menu. I wish more places took care of their customers the way she treated me. Whoever’s managing that place should give her a raise!“

“To be clear, this 5 star review is based upon the service of an employee named Skyler. The food is good (quite expensive) but good. This employee made everyone feel welcome from the moment they walked in the door, until the moment they walked out. In between orders, he was checking on the diners to see how they were enjoying their food. Great positive attitude and demeanor. I would hire them at my business.“

“Their food is sooo good. The biscuits are to die for and the prices are great. Staff is so friendly/wonderful.“

“This is A smaller Sub Sandwich Shop on North Aurora and just around the corner from the Ithaca Commons.. The Sub's are made to Order right in front of You.. This is the one-way part of Aurora Street , so You will Have to get there on foot , after You park somewhere. Jimmy John's Does Deliver.“

“My daughter and I entered around 4:50pm to order a footlong baja chicken sub. Sierra was the only employee working. She immediately greeted us and let us know that she has 3 subs to make ahead of us. We patiently waited and the cashout was around 5:40pm. Her level of patience, and accuracy of my sub was nothing short of amazing. She maintained a positive attitude as more customers walked in and to-go orders were printing non-stop. Give this girl a raise. Sierra, the sub was delicious, thank you.“

“Only a handkerchief of a park, with no amenities, this is still a gem. From here you can see all of downtown Ithaca, Cass Park, Stewart Park, the high school and middle school, and the southern end of Cayuga Lake. What more could you want? It's called Sunset Park because it is an unparalleled location from which to view said sunsets, but even without a sunset it is a great View.“
