Restaurants in Independence

“Great food generous portions super nice staff. Try it you wont be disappointed!”

“The music was amazing last night. The environment was clean. Service above par. Taylor did an wonderful job with the pizza. We ordered the one with everything on it. Every level of flavor was distinguishable, balanced and tasty with the most amazing sauce and crunchy crust. I would recommend this establishment.”

“Great Atmosphere Great Beer Great Food Trucks around”

“Savannah is so knowledgeable and friendly. She makes understanding and enjoying wine fun and approachable. We absolutely love her and this little gem!!”

“Everything about this place is amazing except for the fact that they usually sit you directly next to someone even if you are the only two customers in the whole restaurant. They get nasty about it if you ask to move. Then they'll sit a table directly next to where you moved. Annoying, wish they would stop.”

“Silk Thai has amazing food! My whole family can find something they like when we go and the service is always fantastic! I would highly recommend!”

“I love the vampire repellent. I would gladly kill or be killed in their name.”

“Absolutely wonderful Mexican food . always fresh and delicious . Try it..”

“Excellent food, great folks and amazing service.”

“The place has a lovely western feel to it. Almost feels like you’re in Montana or Wyoming. The staff was lovely and the food was great. 10/10 experience.”

“I searched “restaurants nearby” without any photos but just the name of this adorable cafe-bistro, just made me curious! My oh my! What a pleasant surprise!!! Classy, quaint, cute, and tasty breakfast! I look forward to my next trip to try something new!!! Goonie Girl ✌🏼💗”

“Don't waste your money! Great, attentive & friendly to the regulars, short, inattentive to the point of needing a flag for us. Menu said $10.5 for 6 poppers, got 4, showed them 1 wing was bloody & pink & got a shug 🤯 considering they want to be the BWW of Indy. First time back with high hopes after a couple years but unfortunately the new bar top hasn't changed much at Arena on a slow Wed night🤷‍♀️ Plus Chases'drinks are twice the size for the same price🤦‍♀️”

“Really great location for a tap station!! 26 different beers and ciders on tap, wow!! Very open and airy, dog friendly, giant chessboard out back, and lots of games to choose from! Overlooks the river and park with easy access!!”

“Just had a couple drinks, didn't try their food but I'm excited to. Pasta night on Wednesday I guess... I'll be trying that soon, otherwise the place is clean, staff is friendly, large outdoor area...seems to be enough parking, but maybe not so much when it gets busy...”

“Amazing food and wonderful service. Every course was beautifully plated and delicious. You could taste the love in every bite. I look forward to June for the next pop-up dinner.”

“Amazing staff and great danishes!”

“Best place to get coffee, desserts, pizza, and even a brew on tap. The owners are the sweetest people and we love our collaboration there! You can pick up any of our multi award-winning desserts right inside Brew! You will be welcomed by Cathy and Mitch and they’re amazing team, you can’t get a better experience in such a beautiful little town.”

“We were looking for a frozen yogurt place close to South Salem and this place rocks. It's super clean, they have great options for yogurt and toppings, and the staff are very friendly.”

“Wow, just Wow! Just attended an event where Jodi blessed us with her amazing cupcakes! Not only were they delicious but also beautiful. She is so creative with her design and setup. Jodi you can come to Oklahoma any time, we welcome your talents.”

“I really don’t understand the negative reviews here. I thought the customer service was wonderful, both people working were very welcoming and friendly. The food and drink options were unique and that’s what drew me in and were very yummy as well. The environment was so cozy and it felt like visiting a friends house. I think the people working are doing a great job and put in love and effort into what they do. I would love to visit again to try more of their drinks. The only thing is I wish they didn’t use the AI picture on the side of the building. It will get a much more authentic feel if real art is used. Even something simple. But other than that, 100/10!!”

“Love this place! Top notch 👍🏼🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”

“I have always been more than happy with the special #2. The portion sizes are huge and I love it. Id prefer less sweet and sour sauce in the box when you order it to go, but it seems like theres always a relatively equal mix of fully sauced chicken pieces and some only about half. So you can elect to drown your chicken in more of the delicious sauce or eat a half doused ones as is. The chow mein is perfect. Pork fried rice is a great addition that lets you enjoy rice with some appreciated flavor. I originally didnt like the crab puffs but they grew on me quickly.

Ive seen some complain that the outside needs more cleaning or that the environment needs some adjustment. I think the concerns of the outside are fair enough, but Ive never felt the place was unclean. If anything, I take small town restaurants with dated exteriors but fine interiors as a sign of the truly good stuff. And my experience with Jade terrace has basically just been that: the good stuff.

I am currently full to the brim with a special #2 after thinking about it all day and not eating much. You know what Im not full of? Regret. The special #2 filled me up so much, I have no room for it. Great place for Chinese food.”

“I have been ordering from this company for a little while. Out of all pizza businesses in the area including Salem Oregon, this store really openly tries their best to put out good customer service. Their food is the best in the area and their commitment to a satisfied customer is a whole lot better than Salem or Monmouth pizza shops by a long shot. They are willing and respectful to compensate for their errors with great attitudes. Thank you very much.”

“Great food and good wine! Plus it’s beautiful!”
