Restaurants in Vinton

“The customer service could use some improvement. After greeting me, the staff member took a phone order while I waited at the counter. During the 10 minutes I waited for my food, they spent the time playing on their phone. The restaurant is located inside a gas station, which might not appeal to everyone. That said, the food was absolutely fantastic! They are also running a special where you get a free sandwich if you leave a good review with a photo. Next time, I’ll definitely call my order in ahead of time.”

“Great prices and even better food! 10/10 recommend!!”

“Great southern cooking for breakfast and excellent from Gail!”

“Ordered Philly Cheese Steak and it was edible....kind of like a dry roast beef sandwich. Couldn't taste or see green peppers, onions and CHEESE which is what a Philly CHESS steak is supposed to be.”

“Had a delicious meal with family last Friday. The fried chicken and hot veggies were awesome and we had exceptional service. All 5 of us enjoyed our food and even had some leftovers due to the large portions.”

“The best SWVA has to offer”

“Got just a cheese slice which is nice. Nice crisp. Minimal flop. Good under carriage. Service was great very nice server. Franks is the closest to true NY style ive had here. Most places are either a sloppy floppy mess or 2 inches thick like a casserole and still doughy besides the crust. But in Frank's i trust.”

“Good people good food good music”

“This place is a hidden gem! Loved the atmosphere but most importantly the food was sooooooooo good!”

“Great atmosphere and beer”

“Amazing food and service. ⭐️”

“I bought a anti-pasto salad this morning and ordered extra cheese and for the umpteenth time I sure enough got charged for it but of course did not get it on the salad.”

“love this place staff is outstanding and the food is beyond awesome .”

“I've enjoyed Hunt Bros. for over 20 years. The slices are a great after work snack and on a "we just want the whole thing" night, one phone call is all. Our local Marathon ladies make them less than a mile from our house !”

“My group of friends and I had THE best experience at Pollard’s last night!! The ahi tuna and crab dip appetizers were amazing as was the crab cake entree! Both the bar/restaurant manager and our server were friendly and attentive!! Our 1st dining experience was top notch and I look forward to visiting again!!”

“We love this little place! They have excellent ice cream, milkshakes, and sundaes. We love to pop in on summer and fall evenings. The shop is always clean, prices are fair and the staff is incredibly nice. The only minor change I would hope for is less air fresheners. There are too many for a small space. I would rather smell waffle cones baking or something like that.”

“Great coffee and staff. Got my husband a pumpkin spice cold brew and he loved it! He likes strong coffee and this was awesome.”

“omg it's so good and the friendly service... if you haven't tried it lately please give it another shot. I can't get enough of this chicken and slaw”

“Good afternoon. I’m really not trying to be disrespectful in any way but I’ve been a regular at this location since I moved Roanoke in February 2025. I’ve noticed in the last month that the crowd is really falling off. I’ve also noticed that the AC has been out for about the same length of time. Now you guys thrive on older people who are regulars. Old folks just ain’t gonna do that heat. I also noticed that you guys relined parking lot. Problem is most days is not but a dozen cars in the parking lot. Now my thoughts are if you can’t afford to fix the air conditioner, but you can redo the parking lot. You really don’t care about us old folks. Hopefully you guys can get it resolved soon because I really do like that little restaurant.”

“The Starbucks in Vinton Kroger is consistently understaffed. The staff is exceptional however, one person working cannot keep up with the demand. People are walking away after a lengthy wait. One person taking orders AND the making orders is just not enough. There to be two people working almost all the time. If this is supposed to be a cost saving measure it's backfiring on you. You're losing money because you're losing orders. This is why I only give 4 stars instead of 5.”

“Today’s buffet at Smiley’s was absolutely delicious! The food was all seasoned well, hot and just so good. The desserts were amazing!! I wanted to eat more but I just couldn’t eat another bite! If you haven’t tried their Sunday buffet….you should.”

“Great Place!! Food is always great!! Staff is wonderful. Would highly recommend.”

“Excellent buffet - highly recommend.”
