Restaurants near Edwardsville

“First time today. Got the Chicken Hibachi. It was excellent and price was very fair. Will be back!”

“As a newbie to the area this place was very welcoming and friendly the atmosphere just made you feel like home. Jordan was very attentive and friendly. And the price of drinks is absolutely unbeatable and they don’t skimp on them either. Will definitely be my new Saturday night go to. A big plus for me personally is they also allowing smoking. My old area stopped that years before I could even go into a bar however I was never a big bar fan anyway but this place is just different (in a good way).also looking forward to attending dirty bingo June 6.”

“Fresh meal but the cheesecake came in a container that resembled a black coffin...my friend had to throw it in the garbage due to the connotations! Not a good choice of a container !!”

“This place is fantastic! The people who work here do a wonderful job and care about their customers!! I will definitely be coming back ! 🤩”

“I def didn’t give swizzles a chance at first; but with the great bartenders Bella & Mehgan plus thy amazing quick kev wings & music, that’s the place to be all summer”

“The worst customer service ever!!! It’s the second time I come here and the same Arabic or Hindi guy (I’m not sure) is SO RUDE and I ask for the bathroom key and he throw me the key!!!!!”

“Mallory(Cashier) is excellent! I walk into Grotto & she remembers exactly how I order my pizza…just a delight! Izzy is also good as Cashier. Sharon is an amazing waitress who takes care of me when I eat in. She’s one of the hardest workers that I’ve ever known. Hoping that Grotto CEO appreciates these employees.”

“Very tasty food. Definitely a bit different (in a good way) in comparison to other regional Chinese restaurants. They bring an authentic recipe to their food, and you need to give it a try. Convenient off street parking to run in for your take-out, and the food is always fresh and made timely without long waits. Extensive menu selection, so it won't be hard to find something you'll like. I give them five stars. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“Absolutely amazing the portions were Huge. They didn’t skimp even a little I couldn’t believe the amount of cheese of the buffalo fries (certainly not a complaint) the service was fast the waiter was friendly. I asked for xxx lemons in my water which I do everywhere and get one if lucky he gave me at least 6 also a huge plus I will say though the corned beef wasn’t all that great but the salad the pb stuffed French toast the ribs and steak the sweet potato fries Amazing!! Definitely have tons of let overs 😊 wish I could have gotten more I would have loved a slice of carrot and cheesecake but my god there was no way we were getting anymore food.”

“The food is delicious! Everything is fresh. The garlic knots are crazy good and the staff is awesome, down to earth, and have good hearts. Warm welcome 🤗 they make you feel like family 😌”

“One of the servers was exceptionally friendly and kind. She kept the dining area clean and served food with a smile and easily corrected a mistake in our order with grace. She also handled a group of rowdy teenagers and asked them to leave so others could enjoy their experience. I would absolutely go back to this location because of the atmosphere.”

“Delicious boneless wings. And the fries as well as sauces are good as well. The service can be improved a bit. The cashiers can be a bit clueless and not understand your order. Otherwise it's a good place.”

“Came here a few times for coffee to go. Ordered through the app for faster pickup/less wait times. Staff was friendly and coffee turned out well. They forgot the cold foam on the one coffee and fixed that without any hesitation and were apologetic.”

“I came to wendys yesterday and the bathrooms were extremely spotless. when I came out I seen a gentlemen cleaning them. I asked him his name and he said his name is Zach. he was very polite. he not only made sure the restrooms were clean and smelling good but he also provided not only me but a couple of other customers with the best satisfaction. when an employee messed up on our meal he was there to resolve the issue and greatly apologized for the inconvenience. I recommend wendys in edwardsville because of employees like Zach.. zach can not only enlighten our days by being cheery on the drive through mic but also when we approach the window he is very polite and has respectful manners but stands his ground at the same time provide the appropriate satisfaction for not only me but all the customers that were behind me.”

“Samantha had great service and was very friendly”

“We had the Kinya experience. The brown boba tea was delicious! The golden kinya roll was amazing! The ramen bowl was the best I’ve ever had! Definitely recommend this restaurant! We also had the kimchi and pork buns which were also really good! Our waitress was also so nice!! We will definitely be back!”

“A beautiful place to rest and relax with your friends and neighbors in Wilkes-Barre.”

“Delicious food and extremely friendly staff. Definitely the best food cart in Wilkes-Barre area. Healthy, protein packed, and many vegan options. It keeps you full but energizes you instead of feeling heavy.”

“I went there today with my granddaughter, this was her second time and she recommended it to me. My food was delicious, I will definitely be going back. The service was very very good, and we couldn’t have asked for a better waitress. I highly recommend….”

“The absolute BEST footlong hot dogs!!!! The people there are so nice, too...”

“Always great!!”

“Great coffee, staff and of course CATS”

“Just home from a Wednesday evening dinner at The Refinery. I strongly recommend the kale salad and pumpkin agnolotti. A delicious combination of flavors..... fresh greens with tangy dressing, and the most tender agnolotti with fresh pumpkin sweetness. Good food for the soul, cozy atmosphere, and welcoming staff. Thank you, Kathy”

“We're on board with, and on record as saying to all our friends that, MVD is our favorite spot. But since we like trying new places too, we had to come back for the first time in over a year. It's not just the variety of tapas options, or the incredible wine selection, or the impeccable hospitality that will keep you coming back; it's the culinary journey rarely taken where the food transports you and you just sit back speechless thinking, “that was IT, where has this been?” You'll leave completely stuffed, and they'll be drinks… lots of drinks; but the concoctions are adventurous and more than worth trying a few of, and that's before you get to the wine list. They know their stuff; they travel the world to find inspiration for their own curated menu, but bring lesser-known varietals to the forefront that really challenge your palate and leave you needing to speak directly to the associate at the wine and spirits store, in the best way possible. If you have an unoaked chardonnay available, I immediately like you! You don't have to wait long once you order for those tasty shareable plates to come firing out; they're quick, efficient but also know how to help you pace your meal. Funny thing about this meal (that we shared with another couple we go touring with) is that it turned into a Catholic-guided, Lent-abiding seafood extravaganza, which was not necessarily our goal on approach. I love when a place really surprises you with things you wouldn't typically think to pair together or even order, and they become some of your favorite things altogether. Case in point, the escargot; most escargot I've ever had was rubbery, soaked in butter and masked with garlic. None of that was going on here, and they even did the work for you with the shells. Anything fried (empanadas, yuca fries, oysters, seabass tacos) had a very even, full but thin breading. Not a trace of residual oil, nothing heavy about it and still the right temp inside to not blast the filling. I really enjoyed the oysters, and the pickled radish and shallot would be good as an accompaniment for ANYTHING. The chimichurri is spot on, and anytime it appears on the menu, which it does several times, you should get those items. The butter sauce with a camarones was drinkable, the empanadas never disappoint, and the almond tart with wine-poached pears for dessert was literal perfection. Overall, our favorite drink was the Holy Smokes and they have a team-oriented approach to presenting dishes table side. Fun and friendly, the staff is knowledgeable, patient and has great personal recommendations, all with legit culinary knowledge. Go…like, now!”

“Excellent service, Richard was so nice! Food is always great!! Best kept secret! Mongolian beef was excellent! Ditto for the sushi!”

“Nicely decorated and comfortable. Some of the best pizza and baked goods I’ve ever had. 👍💯”

“Good People, Good Tea, Good Place !!!”

“Paradise/Asia is the best! We’ve asked her to cater our family’s birthday parties and the food is always a hit. Asia is responsive, on time, and offers great recommendations for portion sizing so we have enough food but don’t overspend. Highly recommend!”

“Friendliest staff, food is yummy and consistent, old school and relaxed environment.”

“Chewy, light and locally sourced, the bagel sandwich, with a perfect crunch from the gold-standard fried egg and crisp bacon, isn’t greasy or heavy but still packs incredible flavor. I got it on the everything bagel, and I might add some more cheese if I want it extra gooey next time, but it’s probably the proper amount. The iced coffee was lightly iced and I didn’t even have to specify (that’s my Dunkin’ hack, less ice since they love that bartender trick). It wasn’t too sweet and the unique house flavors pose some tough counter decisions; the praline was nutty and caramelly, with just the right amount of cinnamon. There’s table service when possible, but it can get busy so keeping your head up helps everyone. Jess and Kiersten keep a cozy and easy-to-do-work vibe inside, as the cafe doubled as my office last week. The sensibly relevant wifi password, easily explained, is also a huge flex these days. Whether you wanna settle in, or just stop by for a quick bite, this spot is versatile, open till 2 and offers one of the best breakfast sandwiches around. Well done!”
