“We ate at Lima's finest food today. The food was amazing as was the service. 💯 Recommend“

“My husband and I had the pleasure of dining at this establishment today for our 44th anniversary. Our waiter Taylor took exceptional care of us. Everything was excellent and he was so very polite and kept checking to see if we needed anything. He also surprised us with ice cream covered in chocolate and caramel sauce and whipped cream and a strawberry. Thank you so so much Taylor you deserve more than 5 stars. 👍👍👍👍👍“

“Thursday Buffet was perfect. Chicken was cooked to perfectly along with great hearty sides. And nice salad bar as well. Waitress was very friendly and Ontop of my water refills.“

“This is a quaint cute little place where you order at the counter and then find your seat and then call out your name and you can pick it up. We went here for Valentine's Day. Thought it was appropriate. We were on vacation and in town doing some shopping. We wanted an old fashioned burger. Well we found one. The burgers have a good flavor. The toppings were very fresh and the bun was good. They must use decent oil because we had pickles, onion rings and french fries and all three are very crisp and very good tasting. We decided after we ate our meal that we would have some ice cream she had the caramel coffee drink and I had the Oreo ice cream? That's kind of like a blizzard... Everyone was friendly. The place was very clean and it had nice restrooms. Stop by and get an old-fashioned burger if you're in town..“

“Beautiful and delicious menu! Our food was served together, hot, and fresh! Party of 11! Saturday morning at 10am. Servers were friendly and fast! Thank you Lulu’s!“

“I ordered a mushroom and swiss burger with bacon. Adding bacon costs $1.99 extra! I just wanted the sandwich and a drink, but the girl taking my order thought I wanted the meal. I didn't realize that until she handed me my bag and there were fries in it. I didn't want to make a big deal about it, so I didn't say anything.“

“When I walked into the store today, Terrance was taking food to a couple at a table and I was watching while I waited for him to return to the counter. This young man was so pleasant with the guests. He then came to wait on me and while doing so was taking care of customers on his headset as well. He has OUTSTANDING customer service and should be commended for it.“

“Lombardo’s is a Lima Musicians Institution where many many Lima musicians have played & broke bread. I spent my 1 to 9 years living with my grandparents about 200 yards from the parking lot of the bar. I had my first head shots taken sitting at the bar having a drink and smoking a cigarette 😆 phots that were taken by The Indoorfins (another local band) I am a creature of habit & nothing makes me happier than gathering at Lom’s the first Sunday of every month to celebrate “Blues Music” on the radio LIVE with Billy Elvis & 104.9 The Eagle. After the live radio show I play Live Blues Music. Join some true Lima Beans at a awsome Lima show with great Lima food“

“Trish is the best bartender I’ve ever came across, literally only come when she’s working. Always so helpful to other staff members who don’t kno what they’re doing. She’s great, 10/10 service from her, everyone should pay attention to her“

“Most times very good, but tonight our fish tasted like it was overcooked. Very tough. Everything else was okay. Did a pickup and they had us pull over. Said it had about 5 minutes, bought it out 15 to 20 minutes later!“

“Everything about my experience was perfect!!! I had quick seating, quick service by friendly staff. Absolutely perfect ribeye grilled to perfection. Several check backs by wait staff during my meal. There isn’t anything they could have done to improve my dining experience!!!“

“we drove an hour and a half to meet family here.Everything was lovely with the exception that we experienced an issue with a gift card.Ww were told by our cashier that it had to be handled online so tried that after arriving back home with no success.Called back to the store and a lovely lady by the name of Shauna stepped up to help...it was a long story but she took care of it in the nicest way.Found out she is the GM,if every establishment had employees like her....the whole world would run much more smoothly.We WILL return.“

“This is the first time I came home with something I didn't order. I asked for 4 piece chicken, but got home with 4 piece fish. I don't like seafood. But i did taste it in case it was a different shaped chicken. Lol, and i still dont like fish. Haha . But my cats ate some. I can give them another piece tomorrow. And I ate my green beans, broccoli, and hush puppies .“

“we had the Fresh Berry Farmers Choice breakfast not realizing there would be so much food. the food was very good. our waitess was great! very friendly. came to the table several times to check on us. cashier that checked us out also friendly and smiling.“

“Jalen is always super friendly and fun to talk to when I come to grab my food from a mobile order or when I make an order in person! She helps make sure the crew keeps orders straight. I always get happy when I get to visit my local Penn Station Crew!!“

“Quick Amazing food with a smile.“

“I’ll give Lee’s 4 stars. I’ve been eating at Lee’s since I was little but stopped for years due to the chicken tasting gooey rather than crunchy. Decided to give it a chance again and I was pleasantly surprised– hot crunchy chicken with a side of savory mashed potatoes, macaroni and delicious sweet tea. It has improved! This may be an instance where how good the food is on that day depends on who is working and cooking but last time I had it was delicious and I’m excited to go back!“

“Food was good and quickly after ordering. unfortunately table wasn't clean all the way“

“The host who seated us was rude and short-tempered, especially when we had trouble understanding them. It definitely wasn’t a great first impression. Thankfully, our waitress completely turned things around—she was amazing, friendly, and had a great sense of humor that made the whole meal enjoyable.“

“Good food and great service. This was the first time I had been in this particular Lee's and I was having lunch with some friends. My friends have frequented this Lee's a few times and the manager treated them as if they were long time friends. This was not the typical run of the mill service.“

“Shawndeka was great!!! Our service was fast and Shawndeka brought our items to the table for us. Food was delicious!!! Melts in your mouth! Dining room clean and bathrooms super clean. Worker was sweeping parking lot which you don’t see very often anymore! Great service delicious food!“

“Great food, service and atmosphere.“
