“Phenomenal across the board. All servers were friendly and helpful. I was asked multiple times if I was being waited on. It was refreshing to experience such a high level of customer care. Everything was clean and tidy inside and the food was outstanding and made exactly how I ordered it. It’s might be just typical “American comfort food” but, dang, it was delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant and I can’t wait to try their breakfast food!Vegetarian options: There are enough non-meat options to have a meal, especially if you eat cheese and eggs.Wheelchair accessibility: Flat entrance and plenty of room between tables”
“Best place to hangout, chat, eat, and watch live sports. Never a dull moment here everyone has a ton of fun. Plenty of seating, amazing staff, and not to mention the burger can challenge anywhere in bowling green. Prices on drinks and food are unbeatable. If you’re into sports , catch Sunday, Monday and Thursday night football, and NASCAR is on every race. Free pool everyday, live music, and drink & food specials are just a cherry on top. This is the place to go if you’re looking to chill out after a long day and hangout with some great people and have a good time. Highly recommend everyone to give this place a shot, and maybe they’ll give you a shot too?”

“$1 street tacos on Tuesday is a killer deal. Everything I've had there is good. Although the red salsa is pretty bland, they have a couple of other bottles they sit on the table which spice it up. Try the green stuff!”
Restaurants by Cuisine
“This is my happy place in Bowling Green. I eat lunch here at least once a week. The atmosphere is so peaceful and the owner and her staff really live up to their name. I feel good after eating here and just being here.”
“This place came highly recommended by the folks at the Preservation Tasting Room, and it didn't disappoint. The food and drinks were great. I had the Steak and Frites but swapped the fries for brussel sprouts.”
“It was out first time going there since we moved back from out west. We would never had sat down had we known they closed at 2pm till 5pm on Saturday. But they still served us some of the best sushi and teriyaki for my wife, son and I. Our server, Leslie, was beyond great. For our mess up on timing and the super super service she was compensated more then she expected. Mt family highly recommends Yuki Japanese restaurant.Kid-friendliness: Over and beyond great service.”
Restaurants with Delivery
“WOW what an experience!!! That is the only way to describe this restaurant! The restaurant itself is in a beautifully renovated church preserving some of its history. The Chicken with Spinach and Ribeye with garlic sauce was perfectly cooked. What completely made the meal though was Zachariah! He was a phenomenal server who gave great recommendations and shared the story of the building and history of the restaurant. I highly recommend stopping even if just driving through!”
“Just started being Gluten free and found this bakery online. Tried it for the first time today with my 2 year old and husband, and WE LOVED IT! It was so delicious! I’ve struggled finding gluten free things that actually enjoy eating… but you now have a regular my friend!”
“Lunch was delicious, and my banana milkshake....2 thumbs up, best ive had in very long time. Also got a stuffed animal cow and fudge from gift shop. Awesome little stop...”
“Food was FIRE????Look at my friend go to town on these wings…My Honest Review…This planet has been blessed with some absolutely incredible individulas throughout history. From Edison, and his perserverance to bring light to this world, to Newton, advancing physics in ways nobody could have imagined. Those like Gandhii, MLK, Harriet Tubman, Antonio Brown, Mike Tyson, and Jamies Winston have each brought their own spark to society unlike anything we have ever seen. However, none of these people can even begin to rival the immense impact that the service Morgan the Waitress provided to me during my visit to Smokey Bones in Bowling Green Kentucky. Now, although some may say otherwise, the true fact is that the service Morgan the Waitress provided was nothing short of extraordinary. She gave swift service, along with an elite ability and willingness to attend to our every need.For starters, Morgan the Waitress provided me and my team of 26 members with what I would argue was the quickest service on the east side of the mississippi. Fulfilling the wishes of roughly 20 BOGO 8 count wings is no easy task. However, Morgan the Waitress was able to provide our group with our food in more than satisfactory time. I strongly feel as though even the Racehorse Secretariet himself wouldn’t have been able to deliver this food with such swiftness.In addition to the rapid service we were provided, Morgan the Waitress was willing to aid our every request without hesitation. A good comparison would be like Guillermo to Jimmy Kimmel, one of the most elite supporters this world has ever seen that probably doesn’t even amount to the service Morgan the Waitress Provided. She even risked her life by standing in the Parking Lot, despite the risk of oncoming traffic, in order to get a shot of our team in front of this establishment.All in all, I would wholeheartedly recommend you take a visit to Smokey Bones in Bowling Green Kentucky. And if you are as lucky as we were to have Morgan the Waitress be your server for the evening, your experiece will rival the feeling of the Cubs winning the 2016 World Series.”
“Visiting friend in Bowling Green and we must have tried out 4-5 coffee shops. Q was alright, the store is spacious with a community feel to it.The one thing I am not a fan is the loud rotating menu screens. When you have space for multiple screens you really don’t need them to rotate. Either they flash too fast before you can find what you want, or you wait forever for the next screen to find what you want. Either way it’s annoying and not efficient. And the loud graphic doesn’t match the store ambience.I had my go to Breve Latte, the espresso and half&half ratio is a little off to my taste. And being an espresso snob, it always touches a nerve when I see shops using fully aromatic espresso machine. I know I know if you have the machines perfectly tuned up, then you can have your grandma or your 8 yrs old niece to press the button and make good espresso. But that’s just not what I anticipate of a coffee shop.Overall a good place to hang out and the food looks yummy”
“Amazing employees who have always been kind. They helped me get a shirt that they didn't have up front. When I got the shirt they noticed that some of the thread had come undone and went back to get me the best quality shirt they could. Coffee is good, food is great, and it's nice to be able to sit and do my work while there.”

“From the moment that I walked in it felt like home. A very clean, and excellently staffed place to get AMAZING Thai food!! The Summer Roll is my favorite in town!! Great Thai Tea as well. The staff was so hospitality and friendly. Quick to answer if asked for suggestions. I absolutely adore this place and am so thankful to handed food my go-to Thai Restaurant in Blowing Green! Thank you for being so friendly to this girl from Carolina!”

Toro
“I took my wife to Toro for Valentine’s Day and we both loved the variety of delicious food. Each of the Tapas we tried were incredible as well as the $5 tacos. Lively Latin and hip-hop music set a great atmosphere. We will be back for sure.”
“Zoey was my bartender and every recommendation was spot on! Fast and friendly service and delicious food. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in town.”
“High-end restaurant without the stuffy pretentiousness, great place for adult birthdays or anniversaries. Knowledgeable front-end staff that cover each other. Good variety of steaks, pastas, and seafood. This review written after third visit: all orders were cooked perfectly. Recommend the bourbon-smoked sweet potatoes (also can be a dessert) and the two spinach sides; steak toppings are Oscar or the Asiago butter; appetizers would be the tuna tartar, calamari, or the crab cake. Lauren was a perfect waitstaff, Vanessa was my recommended bartender.”
Online Reservation Available
“My husband and I went here tonight for our 11 year wedding anniversary and had a blast! We met our coach/bartender and he made us feel so welcome. He even let us throw spade shovels and machetes. After we threw axes for an hour, we did the rage room and that was the most unique experience ever! Bonus, beers are cheap. We will be back again! If you want an awesome time, come here!!”

“The Bistro is a well-known gem to locals. The food just seems to get better and better.I always make sure to have a reservation, but you are able to walk-in. I just prefer to secure our table ahead of time.The menu has a wide price range, and I love that you can dress casual or fancy and still feel comfortable. Keep in mind that the menu is seasonal and changes regularly.This is one of the best restaurants for a proffessional dinner as far as atmosphere and variety of foods.”
“The Cabrera's team is still putting out some of the best Mexican food in town. Thank you Miguel for your perseverance through this difficult time post tornado!!”
“440 Main / Micki's on Main combine elegancy at the restaurant with great atmosphere at the bar. The BEST place to celebrate our anniversary last night with Chef Lee Hunt and his staff going the extra mile to make it even more special.”
“The food was good. Clean bathroom but the floor was slippery I almost fell. Friendly staff. But a very busy restaurant 15 minute wait. For 2 people it was$52.”
“Always good food and wonderful service. I love all you can eat soup and salad. I suggest the broccoli Alfredo, it's my all-time favorite. Highly recommend visiting. You won't regret it.”
“I got the spicy edamame, which was pretty good! The pork peppercorn ramen was okay. The noodles are on the thicker side and the broth is not as flavorful. I had boba as well which was really good. I'd come back to try something different.”
“Always is great every time we order Togo and we do probably once a week. I always get the egg rolls, pork fried rice and chicken with broccoli. Their egg rolls are the best around!”
“I sometimes eat here at the cafe in the morning for breakfast. It is an awesome buffet in the morning and always great food. Staff is always warm and friendly. I would recommend this to anyone either staying at the hotel, or just wanting to enjoy a great breakfast buffet. Just remember when the hotel is full to realize there will be a wait, but most other times you can get set pretty easily. So, for sure check this place out!”
“We were seated fairly quickly and the server, while seemed new, did great. We were seated at a booth for two and it felt very cramped. I got the chicken fried chicken and the breading wouldn't stay on the chicken, was frustrating trying to eat it. It kept sliding off. The side of green beans it came with were very good, seasoned just right and a tiny bit of sweetness. Other than that, a fairly good experience.Parking: Large free lot”
“Imagine an authentic Asian hole-in-the-wall.... this is exactly that. TONS of dishes to choose from, all excellent, but expect it to go. Plastic forks and clamshell Styrofoam containers. If you are after good Asian food, to go, this is your place!”
“I just want to say the Manager and staff here are amazing. I am a truck driver and was out of state when my Mom went into this location to eat for her birthday as a gift from me and I called and spoke to the Manager on duty March 13th 2024 asking if they would go over and sing Happy Birthday to my Mom. This Manager was so kind and told me he would make it happen.They DID! They took her icecream too!! My Mom was so excited and happy. This made her day.Thank you so much Red Lobster Team. Sometimes it's the small things that can mean BIG things.. you will have my business always.”
“I love their wings. I placed an order online and needed to make a modification to it but couldn't do it online. The manager let me make the change in store and was very accommodating. Good management!”
“White Castle cheeseburgers and fries are among my favorite foods ever. Been eating them since I was a kid and have many fond memories of doing so. This location is clean, the staff is efficient, and the food has been great in several visits. The Crave Case of burgers is great for meals with several people and is a really good value. Keep up the great work!”

Pub by Novo
“Excellent food and drinks a little pricey but it’s so worth it. Love it? Been there several times. Also has outdoor seating which is very nice and comfortable.”
“We’re still pretty new to town, but we have ordered takeout from here twice now. We absolutely love it! My favorite so far is the pad see ew. We haven’t eaten at the actual location yet, but it looks like it’d be a very nice atmosphere. This is definitely our favorite Thai place in town!!! The service is quick and ”

“This Waffle House location was spot on with the food and service that you would expect to find in Waffle House . I have 0 complaints. The place was clean the service was quick and the food was good. It’s a good place to stop in .”
“I cannot remember our server's name but she was the absolute best! This was the best breakfast we have had in a while! This Waffle House will definitely get our business again, the cook was just as good as the server! The bacon, eggs and hash browns were absolutely perfect!”
“Stopped here in the wee morning hours on Feb 2nd. We were halfway to our destination in Florida. All the staff greeted us upon entering. The food was great and the service outstanding. Would definitely stop here again.”
“Excellent authentic Mexican food !!! The best in Kentucky !!! I'm an over the road truck driver that drive's all 48 states and I love authentic cuisine restaurant's when you have old people from that country cooking in the back , that's when you know your getting the real deal !!! The people are friendly and the restaurant is clean !!! Best Mexican food in Bowling Green ky !!!”
“Me and my friend came at 3:30 AM, and it was the only McDonald's open, and that time, it's open 24/7, and it didn't even take long to get our food. I appreciate that!”
“So quick and the food was amazing! We had Chorizo Queso, chorizo pollo, cheese poblano, and guacamole salad! Everything was so fast and fabulous! And the drinks were strong!”
“The Cabrera's team is still putting out some of the best Mexican food in town. Thank you Miguel for your perseverance through this difficult time post tornado!!”
“Neat place, we enjoyed our visit very much. I had no idea they had a full bar too, and their drink specials were amazing. They don't have a restaurant but do post about the upcoming food trucks on their Facebook page. They also allow you to bring food in from elsewhere, so we picked up some tasty grub from Burger & Bowl before we got our beer on.The only thing that made me sad is they do sell their beer in cans, but they only had 2 of them. There was a particularly wonderful Belgian on tap that we hoped to take some cans of and bring to our bottle share group, but it wasn't one of the available varieties. Maybe next time we're visiting that area we'll get lucky! And if not, we'll just stop in for some tasty pints.”
Takeout Restaurants
“Just ate here for the first time and I'm kind of blown away. Best BBQ in town and it wasn't just great service it was genuine hospitality. Fantastic BBQ place. I'll be back.”

“Cool vibes and good energy. Can be a bit tricky as you order on a touch screen panel. Always double check with the person at the counter to make sure your order is correct if it's your first time. Unique menu, great food quality and is ready quickly.”
“Zoey was my bartender and every recommendation was spot on! Fast and friendly service and delicious food. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in town.”
“This chikfila had a different setup than I’m used to seeing. Fairly clean, bathrooms weren’t disgusting but someone was waiting for the bathrooms to be empty for cleaning, so they were certainly on top of things. The parking lot and drive through were odd setup as well. Might make more sense when it’s busy.”
“Every time I come to bowling green, I have to stop at Rita's. The best custard around, and the ice is so refreshing. Great team working here, too!Vegetarian options: Vegetarian, but not vegan”
“Eric called my gutter company for some gutter repair on his house. After we got him taken care of he treated us to some BBQ brisket and turkey. By far the best brisket and turkey I've ever had and I drove a truck before and ate BBQ in most of the US. Nobody in town comes even close to his food. I am a brisket fanatic and that's all I eat but the turkey was out of this world. I highly recommend him and not just because he is our customer but because he truly has some great BBQ. We my crew and I just found our new lunch spot.”
“Teresa’s is the perfect town eatery that has grown to meet the size of its customer base. I dare say it started in a small shop size area and is now in something the size of a four car garage. They have done well for themselves. The food is not assuming. It is exactly as described and is quite good. At our table we enjoyed every single bite of bacon strips, sausage patties, scrambled eggs, home fries, biscuits & gravy, bacon & cheese omelette and toast. We enjoyed fresh water, decaf that was actually quite good and a Diet Coke. In a big city this would have run us $35 + tax & tip, easily … and been half cold. This food all but ran to the table hot and came to a grand total of $20 + tax & tip. The waitstaff cannot be nicer. So all together = Sold!Try to keep us away next time we are in the area. It won’t work.”
“Excellent food and drinks a little pricey but it’s so worth it. Love it? Been there several times. Also has outdoor seating which is very nice and comfortable.”
“The food is reliably great! Sam's never disappoints. In-house gyro meat and their rice pilaf is the perfect thing when I want fast, friendly service and something that's not a burger.Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access to the front door”
“Absolutely delicious food and a wonderful little market there also! I got the gyros sandwich and a potato burek. Both were delicious and huge portions! The service was very friendly and willing to teach me anything I wanted to know! 10 out of 10 will go here all the time now!”
“We’re still pretty new to town, but we have ordered takeout from here twice now. We absolutely love it! My favorite so far is the pad see ew.

“Came here for coffee and internet ?? since we are traveling.The store is very cute, stocked with local products and cozy decor. I was surprised to find the “barista” is a little girl aged no more than 14. And while we were there I saw her handling business like a real deal, she was answering calls, checking inventories and all other stuff like this is her show, kudos to her!I got my go to Breve Latte, it’s not bad, but I am torn when I see coffee shop using automatic espresso machines. I understand that why you get consistent results, so easy even a cave man can do, but for me it takes away the need of craftsmanship of a barista, that’s what make people like me appreciate a good cup of espresso drink.”

“place was empty when i went with my family. we got a variety of things and it took awhile (seemed like there was only one guy working - taking orders and making them) but everything we got was good and so i didn't mind the wait”
“Very pricey... The food was great.. the service was great also. But..I asked for extra dressing and they charged for it... pitiful.. I'm not at McDonald's... Also handicap people have to walk a mile if they don't want to go up and down steps and the bathroom was hard to get to for the same reason.Wheelchair accessibility: Hard to get around if you want to avoid the steps.?”
Drive-Thru Restaurants
“I eat here fairly regularly. Usually it’s great! But I’ve had a couple times where the food wasn’t fresh and that’s what makes Rasing Cane’s stand out above the competition.”
“I'm just here to let management know that Chris just set the bar extremely high if not tip-top of his peers. If there were ever a job to train every single customer service drive thru coordinator - he'd be the one!”
“Fast delivery of yummy smoothies and seems to make the only cherry milk shake to be had in Bowling Green! Watch your sizes as little different cost for larger drinks, all pricey.”
“We are up here for our anniversary weekend and Was driving around then we was going to Starbucks so we had our GPS and found this little gem in our travels so we turned around and went here and I'm going to tell you this little place was absolutely awesome and the coffee was so good I actually wanted to turn around and order me another one .. this place is the place to stop for your coffee needs and I also grabbed a bag of the whole bean espresso coffee ☕️ will be going back for sure when we come back up this way......”

“I absolutely love rallies and their fries. I love that I can buy at the grocery store. I don’t so much like the new way they do the computer system taking my order but it’s OK. I’ll get used to it and I absolutely love the fact that they are open till 3 am every night of the week because who doesn’t wanna burger at 3 o’clockin the morningParking: Not much to say about parkingKid-friendliness: Staff is always friendly, never matters the time of the day.”
“Visited this store on my drive through town and was met with excellent friendly service staff. The manager Mr. Hastings was very knowledgeable about his store and cared about the quality of their product. Store was clean and food was amazing! Highly recommended this Hardee's if you are in bowling Green ky!!”
“Update: 2nd visit & we just got shakes but I have to say they have a huge selection of flavors & we got peach cobbler ?& orange push-up which were both absolutely amazing & the orange was exactly the same taste as the push-ups I remember eating as a kid!???Burger was awesome just wish sides were lil bigger but can't really complain for price. Will def go back again.”
“Spent 800.00 there for our graduation celebration. Will likely chose them again next year. Food was wonderful. Manager triple checked each box for accuracy. Simply amazing.”
“Cleanest fast food restaurant I have been to in years! Food was fantastic, wait was about the cook time! Lobby music was not so loud I could actually eat in the lobby without a headache! Great job everyone working there!”
“We went here during the day after the lunch rush. The employees were super nice and everything was cooked right. Not greasy or under cooked. The food was priced well. Better than most fast food. And the sweet tea was like someone from NC made it! We will be going back.”
“The staff here were incredibly friendly and engaging, the young woman that took our order was polite and the gyro and fries I ordered were fresh and tasty. This was a quality example of a good Arby's.”
“Good. It's like a sub you would get at a bar. Crinkle fries. You can get a milk shake. Different. You go in and pick a bag depending on what kind of meat/protein you want and then you mark your toppings/preferences and hand it in at the register.”
“The answerimg of the call button was almost immediately upon the ring. The preparation/wait for my food was a little bit longer then just 10-15 minutes. But it was very very good.”
“What a great way to end a visit to the museum. I had the chicken sandwich and it was great but my friend got the signature burger and loved it. We look forward to doing this again on our next trip back.”
“Longhorn is one of my favorite places to eat because of their specific cuts of meat. Last week they had actually run out of my strip when I had ordered and then came back to tell me they did not have any left, but then graciously upgraded me to a filet at no additional cost going the extra mile.”
“The food here is absolutely amazing, and you can always count on your food to come out extremely fast! I've never been so impressed with how quickly they prepare the food and deliver it to the table. The staff is also extremely nice, timely, and helpful. I definitely recommend stopping in, if you're ever looking for some great Mexican food!”
Cheap Eats
“We come here once a week... even in the dead of winter! That's how good the ice cream is. The flavors change every week so you're always able to find something new if you're adventurous. I also love how they've honored the historic building and how it ties into downtown Bowling Green. Come once and give it a try. You won't be disappointed!”
“This is the best sandwich spot in Bowling Green! Tons of delicatessen style options, seasonal menus, best cheese selection in town, wine, desserts, soups, and much more!”
“The atmosphere had happy vibes, a tasty variety of drinks, and loud party music with karaoke at the time I went. ?? I had drinks and some bar food wasn't very expensive but it's bar food quality. Service was great just couldn't hear through the karaoke but that's pup life ?Parking: Right on the square so park with walking distance and time due to 2 hour parking. Other than that not too badWheelchair accessibility: Street level no stairs or ramps. Easy access.”

Amazing food, kind employees who are eager to assist and absolutely beautiful scenery. I'll definitely be returning for my next craving.”
“Great selection of tacos. From local flair to international. Nice selection of beer too.The only problem was the parking. But, find you a spot. It's worth the effort.”

Our breakfast came out pretty quickly and was very good. I wish I had thought to take pictures. I would definitely recommend this place. Thanks for a great experience.”
“Me and the grandchildren visited Griffs Deli recently. We all loved our sandwiches, but I was pleasantly surprised at how good the chocolate cake was. The grandchildren insisted and so I got some and it was yummy. All in all a wonderful place.Because of a shortage of workers, Griffs is closed on Sundays. But the food is still excellent.”
“We stopped here on our way back home from vacation. It was 100% worth the stop. The service was great, and the food was delicious. We were seated right away, and our server was there right away to take our order. My husband and I ordered a large Havana pizza, and it was enough for us to take home 2 slices. We look forward to taking our kids with us the next time we stop!”

Every meal tastes so good and shows exactly how many macros it has! 10/10 recommended if you try to eat healthy or not!! The food is just too good!”

“Delicious! Our first time here. Hubby had the Bo burger with fries. I had the breakfast burger with green beans. Burgers were hot, well seasoned. Definitely will return.”
“My first time eating here.Chicken strips were FRESH. YUM.Fries were good enough, not as fresh as chicken.3 pepper sauce is awesome!Place wasn't packed like most places, so quick service!”
“Staff was at end of shift and it really showed. They were not very attentive. Food wasn't bad but not great like my other times visiting. I can't say how much I love the restaurant decor. It's nice. One suggestion is don't put couples at the bar area if they don't ask to be. I couldn't hear my husband over the tvs. Wasn't the romantic dinner we wanted. Also fix the lights out front.”
“Food was excellent and even though I got take out I must say their dining room was one of the most beautifully designed I have ever seen in a restaurant. With the colors and the intricate designs on the booths and seats the floor everything you looked at belonged there very beautiful renovations guys can't wait to dine in very fancy appearance could make for a ro.antic setting as well just a thoughtThank you for the exceptional food and serviceWheelchair accessibility: Handicap parking”

“Went through the drive through tonight. The gentleman working the drive through let me know immediately they were short staffed but would help me as soon as he could. I appreciated the warning but he still took our order pretty quick. He was very polite and all of our order was correct and fresh. It’s nice to have good service! Your employees that worked tonight need some recognition and reward in my opinion.”

“I just want to say the Manager and staff here are amazing. I am a truck driver and was out of state when my Mom went into this location to eat for her birthday as a gift from me and I called and spoke to the Manager on duty March 13th 2024 asking if they would go over and sing Happy Birthday to my Mom. This Manager was so kind and told me he would make it happen.They DID! They took her icecream too!! My Mom was so excited and happy. This made her day.Thank you so much Red Lobster Team. Sometimes it's the small things that can mean BIG things.. you will have my business always.”
“Excellent buffet with Asian and American cuisine. Love the hibachi and sushi sections. Very clean. Pay as you enter. Plenty of free parking.Kid-friendliness: A huge variety; children need to be supervised when getting all food items.”
“The waitress was very polite and courteous. Plus very helpful. The food came to the table really fast. My sister and I were very surprised at the speed in which the food arrived to the table. The food was delicious. I have been to restaurants when the food got to the table, it wasn't even warm. My sister ordered the coconut shrimp. She sat there with her eyes closed and told me this is the best I have ever eaten. I had the chicken on the barbie... I left the waitress a really good tip. I will definitely be going back again.Outback, your whole crew rocked it. Thank you so much.”
“My favorite place to eat mostly because the staff always welcomes my family with big smiles and enjoys talking to my overly talkative kiddos?❤️Kid-friendliness: My kids love the staff!”
“The Bistro is a well-known gem to locals. The food just seems to get better and better.I always make sure to have a reservation, but you are able to walk-in. I just prefer to secure our table ahead of time.The menu has a wide price range, and I love that you can dress casual or fancy and still feel comfortable. Keep in mind that the menu is seasonal and changes regularly.This is one of the best restaurants for a proffessional dinner as far as atmosphere and variety of foods.”
“I sometimes eat here at the cafe in the morning for breakfast. It is an awesome buffet in the morning and always great food. Staff is always warm and friendly. I would recommend this to anyone either staying at the hotel, or just wanting to enjoy a great breakfast buffet. Just remember when the hotel is full to realize there will be a wait, but most other times you can get set pretty easily. So, for sure check this place out!”

“This is now the laundromat that I go to! There is one that is literally 2 blocks away but I drive all the way across town to go to this one because the old lady at the one up the road from me was extremely rude to me one night and I needed to get my wife's work clothes done so that she had fresh ones for work that night, to my knowledge this is the ONLY LAUNDROMAT THAT IS OPEN LATE, AND THIS ONE IS OPEN 24 HOURS! It is attached to a convenience store and this is HANDS DOWN THE CLEANEST OF ANY OF THE CONVENIENCE STORES AROUND HERE! The staff is excellent and helpful and friendly! They keep the laundromat area just as clean as they do the rest of it and that is much appreciated because some of the laundromats around here are just nasty as can be! I really appreciate the fact that I feel safe here as well (I usually am alone) with it being open 24 hours, it is well lit and everything appears to be kept in good working order! Thank you for realizing that not everyone can go do laundry during the day and making sure that those of us on night shift have somewhere they can go and somewhere that they feel safe to go so late at night! ALSO, THEY HAVE AN 8 LOAD AND A 10 LOAD WASHER AS WELL AND FOR FAMILIES LIKE NY DAUGHTER AND SON IN LAW THAT IS SO AMAZING! (They have 4 children)”
“We were seated fairly quickly and the server, while seemed new, did great. We were seated at a booth for two and it felt very cramped. I got the chicken fried chicken and the breading wouldn't stay on the chicken, was frustrating trying to eat it. It kept sliding off. The side of green beans it came with were very good, seasoned just right and a tiny bit of sweetness. Other than that, a fairly good experience.Parking: Large free lot”
“Oh my goodness! For a place that just started out as a taco truck , they have the BEST authentic Mexican food! Highly recommend the quesadilla and the supreme tacos! ?”
“Consistently delicious food and absolutely wonderful people. I try to stop in if I'm passing by and haven't had lunch. Decent selection of vegetarian options with good portions.”
“Amazing how no one in Bowling Green seems to be able to make a great fried rice...it's all white rice with nothing in it...and yet, when you pick up their menus it show fried rice the way it should be made? Anyway, this is a very nice clean restaurant...the buffet is small but very good with a lot of choices...that are all fresh and delicious. A big change for Bowling Green....”
“I usually get the salmon which is wonderful. This time I did get teriyaki steak which was a little fatty for my personal tastes, but still good. Veggies are cooked well always and their egg rolls are good! Great prices, portions. I have only ever gotten to go and it’s always yummy and hot!”

“Cool vibes and good energy. Can be a bit tricky as you order on a touch screen panel. Always double check with the person at the counter to make sure your order is correct if it's your first time. Unique menu, great food quality and is ready quickly.”
“Food was FIRE????Look at my friend go to town on these wings…My Honest Review…This planet has been blessed with some absolutely incredible individulas throughout history. From Edison, and his perserverance to bring light to this world, to Newton, advancing physics in ways nobody could have imagined. Those like Gandhii, MLK, Harriet Tubman, Antonio Brown, Mike Tyson, and Jamies Winston have each brought their own spark to society unlike anything we have ever seen. However, none of these people can even begin to rival the immense impact that the service Morgan the Waitress provided to me during my visit to Smokey Bones in Bowling Green Kentucky. Now, although some may say otherwise, the true fact is that the service Morgan the Waitress provided was nothing short of extraordinary. She gave swift service, along with an elite ability and willingness to attend to our every need.For starters, Morgan the Waitress provided me and my team of 26 members with what I would argue was the quickest service on the east side of the mississippi. Fulfilling the wishes of roughly 20 BOGO 8 count wings is no easy task. However, Morgan the Waitress was able to provide our group with our food in more than satisfactory time. I strongly feel as though even the Racehorse Secretariet himself wouldn’t have been able to deliver this food with such swiftness.In addition to the rapid service we were provided, Morgan the Waitress was willing to aid our every request without hesitation. A good comparison would be like Guillermo to Jimmy Kimmel, one of the most elite supporters this world has ever seen that probably doesn’t even amount to the service Morgan the Waitress Provided. She even risked her life by standing in the Parking Lot, despite the risk of oncoming traffic, in order to get a shot of our team in front of this establishment.All in all, I would wholeheartedly recommend you take a visit to Smokey Bones in Bowling Green Kentucky. And if you are as lucky as we were to have Morgan the Waitress be your server for the evening, your experiece will rival the feeling of the Cubs winning the 2016 World Series.”
“Visiting friend in Bowling Green and we must have tried out 4-5 coffee shops. Q was alright, the store is spacious with a community feel to it.The one thing I am not a fan is the loud rotating menu screens. When you have space for multiple screens you really don’t need them to rotate. Either they flash too fast before you can find what you want, or you wait forever for the next screen to find what you want. Either way it’s annoying and not efficient. And the loud graphic doesn’t match the store ambience.I had my go to Breve Latte, the espresso and half&half ratio is a little off to my taste. And being an espresso snob, it always touches a nerve when I see shops using fully aromatic espresso machine. I know I know if you have the machines perfectly tuned up, then you can have your grandma or your 8 yrs old niece to press the button and make good espresso. But that’s just not what I anticipate of a coffee shop.Overall a good place to hang out and the food looks yummy”
“From the moment that I walked in it felt like home. A very clean, and excellently staffed place to get AMAZING Thai food!! The Summer Roll is my favorite in town!! Great Thai Tea as well. The staff was so hospitality and friendly. Quick to answer if asked for suggestions. I absolutely adore this place and am so thankful to handed food my go-to Thai Restaurant in Blowing Green! Thank you for being so friendly to this girl from Carolina!”
“There was a group of 10 of us. The waitress was attentive but not overly friendly. The food was great. Tried tye new carolina bbq chicken tenders and they were really good!!!!”
“The food is reliably great! Sam's never disappoints. In-house gyro meat and their rice pilaf is the perfect thing when I want fast, friendly service and something that's not a burger.Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access to the front door”
“We traveled from White House TN to another place that I found under Hibachi Cooking in front of you. Seems their website was wrong and we left and came here to our great surprise. Great food with very friendly and attentive service. If in the area we will come back. Great prices for the food.”

“I've had the food truck at a few events and it's phenomenal but going into the store left a bad taste in my mouth (pun intended).I got the teriyaki shrimp and scallops and the shrimp was ok (maybe a little overcooked) but the scallops were way overcooked and almost mushy.. Just not a good experience.The service was friendly and helpful but the food just wasn't as good as I'd had from their truck in years past.”
“eaten here a few times - quality was markedly better yesterday. Really not the same place from a few months ago - keep it up. My only recommendation would be the tables need deep clean.”
“We ate here for our anniversary, we wanted a nice, low key dinner. It was a Saturday night on a holiday weekend (St. Patrick's Day) so we anticipated a wait. We were told 30-45 minutes but we're seated within 20. While there we took advantage of the provided free EV charging station for customers, a surprise and welcome perk.The decor and atmosphere was really warm and friendly but low key. It reminded me of a ski lodge type setting, western, rugged, and warm. My husband had the prime rib sandwich and said it was very good. It was a very large portion. I had the tomato basil pasta and it was a very large dinner portion as well. Service was excellent and prices were about what we expected.My only complaint is that we were sat at a booth for two and the table was so small we had trouble fitting our dinner plates when they came with the provided jalapeno cornbread. It was a little crowded. But still overall an enjoyable dinner. Would absolutely eat here again.Parking: Free large parking lot. Also a dual EV charger provided for guests free of charge.”

“I am very pleased with the experience. It's nice to have an authentic Italian option in Bowling Green and a good one to boot. I tried Nonna's lasagne, and it exceeded my expectations. The sunshine fiz cocktail was refreshing and delicious, and the glass merlot was celvety smooth and mellow.”
“The best restaurant in all of BG! Friendliest service, fast go orders, great experience dining in. So many flavors of Jarritos! All their drinks are great. Yummy horchatas. The tastiest pupusas, most flavorful curtido & all the best hot sauces. Perfect, huge burritos with the most flavorful & well seasoned steak. Never gets our orders wrong! (even though I have a very limited grasp of Spanish!) & they have 99 cent Taco Tuesday as well!!”
“WOW what an experience!!! That is the only way to describe this restaurant! The restaurant itself is in a beautifully renovated church preserving some of its history. The Chicken with Spinach and Ribeye with garlic sauce was perfectly cooked. What completely made the meal though was Zachariah! He was a phenomenal server who gave great recommendations and shared the story of the building and history of the restaurant. I highly recommend stopping even if just driving through!”
