Restaurants in Bloomington

“This restaurant has the BEST Korean food! Home style cooking, very reasonable prices and portion sizes. Highly recommend their seafood soup noodles and other soups like the spicy tofu soup and dry cabbage and short rib soup, but it’s all super good. The owners are so kind, grateful to have such a yummy restaurant in town!

Kid-friendliness: The owner is always so sweet to our little girl”

“The often lengthy wait is far overshadowed by the absolutely delightful, yummy aromas of their heavenly treats as soon as you walk in the door. I almost don’t mind the wait as I think I would pay to stand in there just to enjoy the smell lol”

“My time at michael’s uptown Café was wonderful very chill and elegant my food was so delicious and the crème brûlée to die for overall It’s an amazing restaurant to enjoy an amazing meal and chill with friends and family”

“ordered a 10 inch deep dish for lunch to snack on while reading my homework! The coffee was strong but tasty, and the pizza was 🔥 as always!”

“Must try Korean restaurant in Bloomington. Amazing food and service.

The kimchi fries are incredible. They are, without exception, the elevation of the french-fry to its highest form. Bathed in a medley of sauces, the crispy kimchi provides the perfect texture and flavor balance to the crinkle cut fries. These fries have surpassed their humble beginnings as an oft neglected side, and have risen to the highest peaks of the culinary landscape; a meal in their own right.”

“Love the food and the sitting area but only compliant is the atmosphere. It's a silent and awkward and the lightening is too bright. If they had a little more ambience we would definitely be regulars. Please get some music playing and turn the lights down!”

“Staff was friendly and the tea was quite good. Different than what I'd had before, but better somehow. Less juice tasting and more brewed tea flavor. Yummy.

Oh and the popping boba didn't immediately pop when it hit the straw, +1 for that.”

“Fantastic! Food was amazing service was great,best burger I’ve ever had in my life!”

“Amazing music, beer and people! Highly recommend”

“Beautiful, spacious modern decor. Impressed by the esthetic from the moment of entering. Food was excellent. Got the baby beet salad. Very good, but I think the beets (fewer perhaps) should’ve been chopped into smaller pieces with more strawberries and greenery. Very filling. I had the roasted eggplant for my entree. Wonderfully seasoned, served over a bed of white rice. I would definitely get it again. My desert choice was the blueberry cheesecake. Scrumptious! The staff was very friendly and efficient. Will definitely go back. Nice outdoor patio area as well. Thumbs up!”

“Lennie's is still great! I recommend the ruby bloom amber ale. The original Lennie's sandwich was fantastic.”

2. The burger is very delicious and the portion is moderate
3. Onion rings are delicious
4. Milkshake is surprisingly delicious
5. Child seats are provided and there are changing tables in the toilets.
6. Friendly service attitude”

“The food was amazing and the service was top notch. We're from out of town and also haven't had Indian food before, so didn't know what to expect. We brought our two toddlers with us. The kids were a little chaotic and we broke a glass. The staff were so kind about it. We're looking forward to going back once the kids are older!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Judy’s Kitchen has the best Orange Chicken with huge portions! It is so hot and fresh! 10/10 recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Olive Garden offers a fantastic dining experience with excellent service and a friendly staff. The team is attentive, welcoming, and ensures a pleasant meal from start to finish. The food is always fresh, flavorful, and served promptly. Whether dining in or taking out, the service remains top-notch. Highly recommend for a great Italian meal with outstanding hospitality!”

“Good food at a good price. Had shrimp fried rice & a veggie egg roll. The shrimp were huge & there were a lot of them. The rice had a really good flavor. The egg roll had just the right amount of cabbage filling & was cooked just right. Come here a lot & have never been disappointed. Better than some of the more pricey places in town.

Vegetarian options: They have the usual veggie options in fried rice, lo mein, egg foo young, etc. Spring rolls are vegetarian friendly & you can get veggie egg rolls. There's a vegetable section on the menu.”

“Fantastic ramen inside a casual and relaxed environment. 5/5”

“Always a good downtown choice. Great lunch special every day of the week. Huge New York slices. Massive breadsticks. Great pizza selection of both standard and specialty pies. Great location.”

“In from Detroit. We came for dinner in the middle of a Jazz show. Sat at the bar. Max took great care of us. Fabulous Sazerac. I recommend the pork tenderloin sandwich. Schnitzel at its best. The music was incredible. Great service and atmosphere. We’ll be back.”

“Great food and atmosphere.!”

“Great steaks 🥩 Great service”

“I absolutely love the drinks there, boba in general upsets my stomach but i go for the milk teas alone-honeydew and dalgona are top notch. The bobaristas obviously love their jobs and ive never had any issues. The one with the peace sign necklace and the one with the dark hair are usually working when i go in and theyre both so sweet! Highly reccomend. Also the takoyaki is comparable to that in tokyo.”

“Excellent food and great beer”

“Absolutely unique and wonderful. Friendly service.”

“🙂Excellent Door Dash option for our little upstate NY town!”

“My friend and I get food from here during our work break all the time. It is always fast, tastes good, clean. They also made too much food once and rather then throwing it out like many places do, they gave it to us for free. Thank you for your amazing service!”

“This place has quickly became our favorite breakfast spot in Bloomington. With local restaurants unfortunately being so inconsistent, this is a great option. Food is always fresh and extremely good. Nice portions and a huge menu selection. It is always a little busy on the weekends but that’s to be expected.”

“What a wonderful addition to Bloomington!! Welcome back Baskin Robbins. Lauren and all her colleagues are going above and beyond to create a great customer experience. Oh, and the donuts are yummy too.”

“In my opinion this is the best Burger King in town. They seem to take the time to make the food correctly, even when ordering a simple burger or nuggets kids meals, it just seems to taste better. Highly recommend.”

“Dunkin Donuts in Bloomington Indiana sucks! They don't understand English. They will give you the wrong donuts. They sell stale donuts. When you get the wrong donuts through the drive thru and get home to find they screwed up your order they are rude and ill-mannered about fixing THEIR mistake. They actually want you to drive back their mistake so they can resale the donuts to another unsuspecting customer. You don't know where their donuts have been since they break the law by reselling these donuts people return to them. They don't have a sign at the drive thru, saying what kinds of donuts they have, So you have to describe them. Since they don't speak proper English they guess at what you are ordering. I don't know how they got powdered sugar from me saying chocolate icing. When you call them you can expect the run around and rudeness. Trust me when I say there are better gas station and grocery store donuts in Bloomington and from now on that is where I will get my donuts.”

“Better than average McDonald's location. They do however need to tow away that broken down white truck that's been parked in the best spot for the past 9 months”

“I love the staff and atmosphere here! They always go the extra mile to take care of their customers.”

“The quality of the baked goods is superb! The counter service is friendly, helpful, and efficient. There is a great variety of goods and they are always flavorful. This is Baking at the highest level.”

“great staff and great pizza”

“the apricotter was my favorite out of the flights! a very nice interior and good music, was a very nice experience”

“Great food and coffee!!! Would recommend.”

“The food is delicious and you can order as much as you want. The staff are all friendly as well. I’ve been here multiple times and they are always kind and eager to help!”

“We had the best time at Da Vinci last weekend!!! ✨✨✨ 🍷🍝My son and I are Italian and Carter was our waiter. He is an incredible person!!! He’s a great asset for this awesome restaurant and the Carter, special pizza hands-down the most delicious pizza in the whole world and it should be a permanent item on the menu!!! ❤️‍🔥💯❤️‍🔥 Thank you so much for authentic Italian food and thank you so much for Carter. He is amazing. We love you guys, mama Laura, and Enzo.”

“Always enjoy pad puk, whether dining in or carrying out.”

“My partner and I wanted to go to Marco and Polo restaurant yesterday but Google map didn’t show they were booked. Since we did the long drive to Bloomington, we decided to go to a Korean Restaurant nearby. The name is Korea Restaurant and food is authentic and price is quite right for current economy and if you order fried dumpling 6 piece, you get to have all these other cool things with it. We ordered chicken teriyaki and beef bulgogi. The server is a Korean guy and he is extremely down to earth, approachable, and nice. I am glad we ended up with such an elevated experience despite the unfortunate incident.

It was my first time in an authentic Korean restaurant and I had watched lots of Korean TV series in my early twenties and I love how people make kimchi in their house. This kimchi was super delicious compared to what I used to buy at international markets.

Besides the kimchi, the most delicious pieces were cucumber in the vinegar sauce and then the fried vegetables dumplings.

Highly suggest their outdoor sitting.”

“Great food and coffee!!! Would recommend.”

“The sweet & sour pork chops is my favorite meal on the entire planet. The other dishes there are the most authentic dishes I have found at a Chinese restaurant. I go out of my way from Indianapolis to get this food. The mapo tofu is my second favorite and is so amazing. Please visit this restaurant multiple times so you can try a great many high quality Chinese food that is affordable.”

“It's the best! would recommend their ice cream to anyone”

“Oliver Winery is truly a gem nestled in the heart of Indiana. From the moment you arrive, the picturesque setting captures your attention with its beautiful vineyards and charming architecture. The staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, always ready to guide you through their extensive selection of wines.

The tasting experience is enjoyable, featuring a diverse range of wines that cater to every palate, from sweet to dry. Their fruit wines are particularly delightful, offering unique and refreshing flavors. The ambiance is relaxed and inviting, making it the perfect spot to unwind with friends or family.

Overall, Oliver Winery is a must-visit destination for wine lovers and anyone looking to enjoy a wonderful day out. The combination of exceptional wines, stunning scenery, and warm hospitality makes it an experience you won’t soon forget!”

“I feel safe trying anything here. I’m trying things here that are totally new to me and the worst thing I’ve had was wonderful. I recommend going and try something new to you!”

“Open mic is sweet, staff is killer.”

“One of the best coffee shops I have visited, and I include the ones I visited in the East and West coasts. Coffee is quality stuff, the pastries available are to die for (if you have the chance, get the tomato galette) and the staff is just the most awesome people. They will take time to talk to you and be really friendly (I think that's a plus, some other reviewers don't). I could literally talk for days with them. Good place to work, sturdy tables and good light.”

“I ordered the salted Carmel cold brew and OMG!! it's the best iced coffee I've had. the girl at the window was really sweet. will be back. Buy local it's worth it.”

“My own version of Cheers. Come alone, leave with a few friends in your pocket! 😁”

“Finally able to check this place out, and boy am I sorry I didn't get there sooner! What a beautiful coffee shop! The service was top notch, and the employees are so friendly. The Ginger Chai Latte was AMAZING. The baked goodies looked so yummy that I had to buy one, and I was not disappointed! If you haven't tried them yet, you're missing out.”

“This cozy King Gyros restaurant exceeded my expectations with its authentic flavors and warm service. The portion size is very big for the price. Highly recommended.”

“crab Rangoon was so good. portions was really big”

“The new owners rock! 100% improvement from last owners. Buffet is awesome!! They keep the pizza coming and the salad bar is great. I have been there more in the last 2 months than I had ever been there. The people who work there are so friendly! I always tell people how great it is! Keep up the good work.”

“Nice quick style Mediterranean place, lots of options on the menu for different dietary needs, but the food was just alright. A place to try if it’s your speed, but nothing great with a loungie atmosphere”

“The service was great and my food wasn't just thrown together and to messy to eat. I would recommend eating there.”

“I order the peach cobbler with extra crust … omg. It was amazing.”

Highly recommend testing these fantastic vegetables rolls.🌹🌹”

“Great food and atmosphere at BL! Iconic Bloomington establishment with great food 🤘”

“We visited today and it was amazing. By far the best gluten free bread and biscuits we’ve had. It was amazing to be able to go in and get anything off the menu without having to ask if it’s gluten free. Can’t wait to go back!”

“Love Sleepers Bar. The owner and bartender are very friendly and personable, they make you feel at home as soon as you walk in the door. The drinks are spot on and the atmosphere is great. The omelette and bloody mary the next morning is the best ever. Left there meeting new friends. Will definitely return”

“I was in a rush on my lunch break and decided to place an online order at the Westplex location. When I arrived, my meal was made right then so it was fresh off the press. It was still warm when I arrived at work and was literally end to end flavor. I made many co-workers jealous when they walked through and saw my lunch! Definitely would love to grab a few platters for our teachers in the future-they would be a HIT!”

“This is a small, friendly bakery with some seats and tables that offers a host of desserts--cookies, cupcakes, muffins, donuts, etc.--as well as some savory items like sandwiches and patties. I got a bunch of things here, all delicious. It is the only all-vegan place within 25 miles--and so good!”

“My first time visiting this place yesterday. I enjoyed the whatever bowl. I will be returning tomorrow. 😊 The ladies at Virginia Beach store was very welcoming and friendly.”

“Love love love ami and their yummy sushi and miso soup ?”

“Toto's Uncle Cafe is our go-to "we want a quick dinner without much fuss and we want it to be good" place after work. They're always consistently good food, well-managed at their counter, and reasonably priced for a small business serving international cuisine. Their sauces are really good for their bibimbap, and their proteins are tasty.”

“I always have a great experience stopping in Poindexter. The atmosphere is cozy and comforting, and their breakfast burrito is the best in town! The espresso-based beverages are always well made and delicious, and the rotating themed drink menus are so creative to see and try! (Past favorites include the Team Edward & the Mimikyu Mocha) 10/10 will always recommend!”

“The Cozy Table is my favorite place to eat. Everyone is down to earth and respectful! I love the food and the great employees!!!”

“I've been there for lunch once or twice a week since they opened. They've earned that place on the rotation. They're delicious, consistent, but moreover KIND. They look out for their patrons, chasing you down the street to return an item or spotting for you as you try to evade a car pinning you in. Try them!”

“Enjoyed my house ramen (must add chili sauce) with extra veggies. The house made noodles are ?. And the super fruit green tea is delicious and refreshing- it’s served with melon, lemon, lime. My husband has enjoyed the pineapple and strawberry smoothies as well.”

“This place is nice, the counter is pretty colors and the guy working there was very friendly, he explained a special deal to me including exactly how much it would be with tax. Prices are reasonable, food is good. Will definitely be back.”

“seriously the best pizza place in town.”

“Outstanding service and really nice customer service. Order was fast.”

“I go to breakfast at least 4 times a week and I watch these ladies run their butts off to try and manage the entire for every customer and every issue in between. I've seen the nastiness they deal with from the customers who chose to come eat in a very understaffed unappreciated under paid and over worked restaurant ran by at most 3 young woman. Cut them some slack, it's apparent the store and the people who park and go in and eat need them probably closer to more than they need us or Denny's. The world ugly don't punish the ones who wake up every day and still work a job”

“The service was great and my food wasn't just thrown together and to messy to eat. I would recommend eating there.”

“Excellent food and great beer”

“They don’t serve you like they did before Covid but we’ve been a few times recently and the food is always fresh, the workers are polite when you do interact with them, and it’s as clean as a place like that can be. We stopped going during covid cause the food was never fresh, the workers were rude and didn’t want any interaction with a customer, and the place was dirty. I’m glad whatever changed, changed. We will keep going back.”

“Usually a weekly visit for us. Excellent food and outstanding service! The staff are awesome; much love to Elle, Kevin, Sierra, Dylan, Chris, Lacey, Sam, Josh, and many more...
"See y'all soon!" ❤️🤗🙏👏🫡”
