Wow ! Is all I can say . Walked in for the first time. Was no greeted associate said what can I get for you I said am not sure it is my first visit. She said ok never suggested anything walked away . It was one employee serving the restaurant, drive through and counter . I waited for a while never got to order coz she was so busy . I decided to leave never to return . Worst service ever.

A small fast food restaurant manly dealing in Italian food, pasta and sub type sandwiches. The have various pizza options. Large sub sandwiches and pastas. Spaghetti, ravioli. You can get the pasta items al la carte or as a meal. The meal options gives you a salad and your choice of dressing and also a bread option. I choose to get the beef ravioli meal with garlic cheese bread and a salad with blue cheese dressing. The salad was delivered to my table just about at the same time that i set down. My main meal ame before i could finish the salad. So fast service and a polite waiter to deliver the food. Notr that the place has pepsi products for their drink options.

The servers were very nice - the only reason that this isn't 1 star. Everything else was just not good. Food was bland, old and not warm all the way through. Look at the pictures to see the atmosphere. When I pulled in, every red flag went up but I went in anyway. Trust your gut and drive on by.

Walking in here, I thought it would be a fast food restaurant like Fazoli's. How I was wrong. Apparently it used to be an old McDonald's, and although the interior tells you what it used to be the food proves you wrong. Service was amazing, the cashier was friendly and so nice. They were fast to bring the food out too. I ordered their dinner special for the month, which was the baked penne. There are other menu items, but with the pasta dinners it comes with a salad and bread of your choice. It is around $14.50, which seems a bit pricey but totally worth it. Coming back to the baked penne, there was a lot more cheese than I expected and the sauce was creamy tomato. I didn't like it as much as I would, but that was probably due to my lack of appetite. Still good, but also just too much cheese. Last thing: when ordering their salad, I recommend getting the homemade italian because it was amazing. It was more towards the vinegary side, but still flavorful!! Definitely would come back, and yall don't just this restaurant based off the exterior like I did.

This will always be one of our favorite eateries. Many years ago our daughter worked here. We love the quality, quantity and value they share with customers. The garlic and cinnamon bread are among the must haves if you eat here!

5 star all around cause I know Grinders has been producing great food for decades. I wanted spaghetti with meat sauce, garlic bread and an Italian salad (like my Mom used to make) and Grinders delivered. I ate meal over 2 days, everything tastes great as leftovers too. Going back, try something else. The garlic bread and salad are fabulous.

Staying in town for business and I gave this place a try based on reviews. Food was OK. I dined in and had the meatball sandwich with fries and drink. Food came out fast. Bread for sandwich was too big for medium-sized meatballs. Meatballs tasted good, but the sauce was a little cold on the sandwich and I should have said something, but I was hungry and in a pinch for time and did not. The fries were excellent.They have a good looking menu with a lot of good items. I will be back again to maybe try something different. Service was good. Enjoy!

Got a ham and cheese grinder and there was barley any meat or cheese. Never had a sandwich with that little meat before. They said they only use the finest ham and cheese on the menu? No way! I didn't try the pasta.
