“Love love their food has always been good, used to go every year for family reunions and now I continue to go with me and my husband.“

“First time eating here and it was delicious! I had the ham steak, side salad, and cottage cheese. Husband had the patty melt with fresh-cut fries and brown gravy. Fresh made burger on the patty melt, fries dipped in the gravy were spectacular. Dinner was great! We then ordered dessert, I got a slice of lemon pie and my husband got the Ho-Ho cake. Not disappointed at all. Great service and great food.“

“I went to breakfast here today for my daughter's birthday. She is turning 9 and when Rachel heard that, they put a candle in her French toast, started singing happy birthday, and the entire diner joined in! Courtney was our server and she is an absolute gem! She kept a positive attitude, a smile on her face, and each and every table was taken care of. I highly recommend checking this place out! The food was fantastic and the overall experience was wonderful!“

“The server was so friendly, they were like family. The food is good Home cooking. The mashed potatoes and gravy were made from scratch and the Salisbury steak was made with top quality meat. We had the blackberry cobbler. The crust was flaky, buttery, and delicious. I going back tomorrow for more.“

The food made me and my husband happy. I really wanted seafood and the potato lobster bake was delicious 🤤.“

“It’s hard to find a place in Wheeling to prepare food by 11am for someone to pick up and bring it to Cameron for lunch. Tito’s never lets us down!“

“Stopped in for lunch with my daughter, I ordered the grilled chicken salad and my daughter had the steak salad, both were delicious, our waitress was very nice“

“I’ve ate here a lot of times. Today I got slim Jim and onion rings. The ham on my slim Jim was 2 slices of paper thin ham and the Swiss cheese the same. I know these are trying times, but come on.“

“Visited , Thursday 8/7/25. Never complain, but the 2 salads ordered were Oh so , disappointing. Salads were not presented as advertised, with missing ingredients , and quality of ingredients were lacking. Our server did ask if we needed more salad dressing for both salads. The portion size was smaller than we anticipated. Hopefully, just an off night !“

“I ordered the Deck Salad with grilled chicken. Don't expect to eat the whole thing, it is huge. Loved it! It had blackberries as big as my thumb, strawberries and blue berries. And, of course, it had dried cranberries, pecans and feta cheese. I would order it again. I wish they would bring back the Reuben dog. It also was delicious.“

“Good food and good prices!“

“Our waitress did an amazing job, especially because she seemed like the only person on staff while we were there. She was greeting people at the door, waiting on them, and doing everything in the front of the restaurant. The only suggestion I would have for Perkins is to have more staff on in an appropriate way..“

“Awesome food and staff! Never had a poor meal or experience.“

“Food was good, service was excellent. After church groups where there so a little noisy lol.“

“Great food, service and a cool atmosphere. I like how the bar area is separate from the dining area. The patio was nice too. With many TVs, it's a good place to watch sports. The menu had a plethora of choices from pizza, pub grub, seafood, many salad choices (I recommend the basil vinaigrette) and great steaks! Definitely my new go to spot when visiting Wheeling.“

“Pickles is a great local bar with really good food. Thursday wing night is the best deal around. Fulton Philly & other options a really tasty. Staff is always friendly and quick even when very crowded. Great beer prices and a fun atmosphere.“

“Such a fabulous place to spend time with family and friends and to make new friends each time we go there. Food is perfect and Joey, Abbey, and all of the staff make you feel like they’ve known you their whole life. Such a perfect go to any day of the week I always highly recommend the Mediterranean salad. Just makes your mouth water!“

“Very clean, food was delicious, and the atmosphere was nice. Our waitress Katrina was an amazing worker, running the tables, helping at the bar, & cleaning tables. She was very sweet the entire time too! Great employee to have!“

“Food is great, super quick always say 25-30mins for pick up i show up in 10-15mins its ready. We've been ordering about twice a week 👍 love the prices. Just wish you guys did zucchini planks/slices instead of zucchini fries (give it a thought 😁😁😁)“

“I’m traveling for work and am eating alone. I chose the hotel I chose because the options within walking distance ( why risk giving up a parking spot at the hotel when you can walk?)

I decided days ago I was going to eat here. Now, my husband is a meat cutter from way back lol , I didn’t even care for steak until he showed me what GOOD steak was.

I’ve ate at many steak houses, all are fine usually. But tonight, this was perfect. Imma bit .. particular.. seen it comes to my food because we cook at home so I KNOW what I like.

Well, tonight, the New York strip, the Brussels, the bread that tastes home made ( we have a bread maker and make our own frequently) , are delicious. And not just that. But it come out HOT still. I had to blow it so in didn’t burn burn the baby ( me, I’m the baby lmao)

My wait staff , Jasmine, was amazing, she didn’t interrupt, but she checked in. I honestly don’t care to be interrupted. Just notice me if I raise a hand and check in once or twice!

This was truly needed. Wish I lived closer instead of hours away lol“

“We celebrated my 80th birthday on Saturday. The food was awesome, service even better. The accommodation were perfect. Thank you Jeremiah! We will be back..“

“As a Chef im so grateful to visit VanDynes! Very clean fresh, great atmosphere. Amanda our Server has a great kind and excellent personality. My meal was prepared perfectly, nice and hot fresh vegetables and cooked to perfection. Rebecca sure has the skills and compassion for preparing and cooking meals. My Family definitely will be returning. Thank you Amanda and Rebecca you've won over new customers sweetys your AWESOME & AMAZING! ?“

“Food seemed a little off from the usual quality standards. My choice was served below the usual temperature, and another member of our party's steak was tough and under cooked. Portions seemed smaller, but then that's the norm sometimes. Visit was not up to the usual standards.“

“Everything I've had has been pretty good. Had the Parmesan crested chicken once and it was so salty that I couldn't hardly eat it. I now ask not to add any salt to anything I order. All other things I've ordered have been good.“

“My family of 6 was in today. These subs were delicious! One of my kids even said best sub ever! Great food and friendly service! Highly recommend!“

“Burgers had no flavor. Fries were limp and greasy. pickles had a rind so hard you couldn't eat them. What happened??? You were so good before. Disappointed. Waitress was nice..so there's that.DO NOT RECOMMEND.“

“Went for valentines day, steak was made perfect. It was busy but service was fantastic. Our waitress was kind and did everything to keep our experience great. I was not disappointed. Applebee's made our valentine's day day a very memorable one.“

“Lunch outside on the patio was great. A lot of pick up is done here. Wait staff was great. We had a bacon burger, steak salad and stir fry. Everything was GREAT!
The Google locator on mapping is skewed. It places the restaurant in North Wheeling when it’s located near the Civic Center.“

“I love this restaurant and come here often. Stopped in yesterday for my birthday and the waiter brought our drinks and then didn’t come back to our table for 25 mins. Tried to get his attention a couple times. When he finally did I asked for the check to pay for the drinks. As I was leaving (as he had no other tables) he was on his phone . So I guess that’s why we didn’t get waited on. Still a great place to eat with great food“

“We had an awesome experience here! The atmosphere was very relaxing. The drinks were incredible, and the cheese fries were honestly the best I’ve ever had. The staff was amazing, and very on top of things. The live music was absolutely outstanding! 10/10 recommend visiting this place!“

“We have never had a bad meal at The Shady Spot. The burgers, fries, wings, ribs, fajitas and chicken fingers are all excellent!“

“Love love their food has always been good, used to go every year for family reunions and now I continue to go with me and my husband.“
