Restaurants in Tyler

“Ate inside with my kids today (05/29/25) and the workers were so very nice! Even my 12 y/o mentioned how polite and nice the service was in there.”

“It’s always a sweet experience to open the door and be greeted with a warm hello and the aroma of freshly baked sumptuous goodness. Your expectations grow as you place your order but seldom match the unparalleled richness of your first bite.”

“My husband and I were blown away by their menu, service and quality of the food. This family knows food and even the portions are large. It was amazing. We will be back.”

“First time trying sushi and I am not disappointed! We will be back!!”

“Brennan was our waiter and he was amazing! One of our table mates could not decide what to pick so he left it up to Brennan. The food came out and Brennan had picked the best dish for our guest! Very attentive to our table and great personality!”

“Karla is very nice and takes extra time to make sure your experience is excellent”

“Stanley’s is my “go to” place for the best bbq, hands down! Everything they have is great, including the service.
If I’m being totally honest, I really only go to see Maddie and Tamara. They’re amazing, the food is second to their smiles and personality!!”

“Love the Java moca shake!! We go here about once a week. Staff is always friendly and service is good. I haven't tried a lot of their other drinks because once I find something I really like, I tend to stay with it. Definitely worth a try.”

“You've become a family favorite. The friendly staff and exceptional food can't be beat!”

“Great food and good service! Definitely a favorite!”

“Jumpshot is my favorite coffee shop in town!! I love all the unique house drinks that they offer!! They are always so kind and very quick!! My favorite drink i’ve had from there has to be the carrot cake latte they had for May as one of the drinks of the month!!! It was truly so good, and don’t even get me started on the banana bread latte🤤 DELICIOUS!! I totally recommend if you’re in the mood for a delicious coffee!!!”

“This is my go-to place for an after school treat for the kids and a great place for teacher appreciation gifts!”

“The food is so fresh and tastes soo good every time”

““Great Harvest Club” is perfection. Had it for lunch today.”

“My favorite coffee/drinks in Tyler!”

“I'm really mad at myself for taking so long to come to this restaurant. Everything was great, and I highly recommend the grilled redfish. My new favorite restaurant.”

“As you enter, you are promptly greeted. We had a reservation, which due to traffic we were a little late. That being said we were seated immediately. Indoors every table has a view of the kitchen. The wait staff was extremely knowledgeable, and were able to answer any questions about the menu. I had the Crab cake Hush Puppies to start. Nice large hunks of lump crab in a moist, and fried to perfection batter. Accompanied with a slightly spicy remoulade. For my entree I went with a Blue crab Claw Ravioli. The balance of this dish I cannot even put into words. Talking with Chef Lance after the meal, and observing him at work. You can see and feel his passion for his chosen art. Just when you think your experience can't get any better, a walk to the back of the restaurant. A doorway marked "janitors closet" hides a secret entrance to the Speakeasy. I highly recommend a visit, should you find yourself anywhere near Tyler Texas!!”

“Thank you so much for the delicious food you prepared for my sister's surprise 50th birthday party. I picked it up yesterday and took it to Kilgore. It was a huge hit and tons of people who didn't know about your restaurant know now and hopefully will come enjoy your delicious food again. I appreciate you!”

“Just ate here with my family and it is our new favorite restaurant in Tyler! Amazing food, wonderful service, and great prices. We will be back!”

“Big Chad and the Davis crew had a blast! Hayden was the man! Jenna was the best!”

“We could not have selected a better venue than The Potpourri House for our annual women's health luncheon. The Potpourri team provided excellent assistance, attention to detail, and true support of our mission from start to finish. And, as always, absolutely delicious food. We look forward to planning future events with this treasured Tyler landmark! - Jennifer Selman, Executive Director”

“The food was amazing and the service was fantastic! Big thank you to our server, Asafe, for making our dining experience at 111 Palms extra special!! We will definitely be back!”

“Hosted our Staff Appreciation Dinner here tonight and I would recommend having your event here 1000%. From the start Lisa was very professional and helpful with planning our event. When I got there early before our guests arrived, our two servers (I apologize I don’t remember their names I wish I did because they deserve a shoutout) were already on the ball to make sure our evening was enjoyable. Everyone arrived, we ordered, they brought our food, food was amazing and they did not let anyone’s drinks get low. The servers worked VERY hard and did an exceptional job!! I can not say enough about how wonderful it went from beginning to end. 28 of us with no hiccups..Thank you for making our evening special!”

“I get that Olive Garden might not be your ideal fine dining option, but you really cannot sleep on unlimited soup, salad, and breadsticks. My favorite soup is the chicken gnocchi. It reminds me of chicken and dumplings. Also, the ziti fritta is so good!”

“Food and service was a home run! We got the extra hot potatoes, corn, boiled eggs, snow crab and shrimp. They know how to make great sweet tea too!”

“We had a great experience at the Diner in Tyler. It was our first time there and we will be back. Melissa was amazing and attentive but not too much so. She really did a great job of reading the room and understanding when to approach us. The water was outstanding and with that you know the food will be quality. The coffee was excellent and the portions were great plenty to take home. Prices were lower than expected which was a bonus! Thanks for excellent service and great first experience. We will be back and we will be bringing more people 😊”

“Outstanding. The service was great. The food was outstanding. The steamed and fried shrimp were amazing. The green beans were cooked well. Also, the trio appetizer was very good”

“We decided to have our Family Reunion Lunch at Roma Italian Kitchen & Bar in Tyler, and we could not have made a better choice! By far, Roma, and all of their staff, exceeded our expectations. We had 57 hungry diners and, with 2 servers, we never had to wait for prompt service and attention. Joey and Launa always seemed to be there when we needed them. They were very polite, attentive, and accurate in their execution of our food and drinks. The appetizers, entrees, and, deserts all tasted wonderful and fresh. This is the best Italian restaurant in the Tyler and surrounding area! Huge shout out to Joey and Launa, along with the Restaurant Owner, Zee, who made sure our entire group was well-cared for and satisfied. We 100% recommend Roma Italian Kitchen & Bar as your #1 choice for Italian dining in Tyler! Thank you all for taking such good care of us!”

“We absolutely love everything they offer. The barbacoa tacos, especially, are amazing! One note: the Carne Guisada tacos are really good, but very messy.”

“Above and beyond customer service! Most people only pick up the phone when the service is bad enough to leave a negative review - happy to say the service and timing was GOOD enough I couldn’t help myself from leaving some positive feedback”

“We absolutely love everything they offer. The barbacoa tacos, especially, are amazing! One note: the Carne Guisada tacos are really good, but very messy.”

“Was there during bad weather and the crew did not let it phase them at all. Food was delicious.
Another visit of a decent sized group. They managed to accommodate us as we needed.”

“I loved my service! My server, Marlene was the sweetesttt, I absolutely loved her smile and she continued to check up on me to make sure everything was good. 10/10 experience will be returning!”

“kids just need to pay attention a little but otherwise good”

“Drive thru tonight was perfect. Crystal took my order. She was polite ,kind an overall nice employee. Thank you means a lot and she said it multiple times . Thank You Crystal!!”

“They were fast and the food was actually ok this time of night at this loc.... for fast food that is ...it's still fast food...but it tasted better this time.”

“Web had a blast, great experience, I would recommend Trio Marino, more than enough for two people with a Peruvian refreshment " Chicha Morada" my friend had Causa Limena, must give it a shot. I would strongly recommend this place in Tyler.”

“I never use facebook but i came on here just to say their chocolate chess was the best pie ive ever had.”

“Beat pizza I ever had!! Chicken bacon ranch is where it’s at!”

“Absolutely recommend!!! I do not know which was better, the burgers are the fries. We got the 5150 and mushroom burger and soooo delicious 😋”

“Village Bakery made their Chantilly Cake for my dad's 92nd Birthday and it was absolutely beautiful and delicious!! This will become a new family standard for Birthday cakes in our family!! Thank you Village Bakery!”

“Great food and service. Everything was good! Worth the drive from Gilmer!”

“Young man serving beans and ice cream had his bare hands in trash can, running hands through his hair and cut his finger on ice cream bucket. Never once did I see him wash his hands. He went from pushing trash down to serving food. Combing his hair with hands then scooping ice cream. Come on, man!”

“EVERYTIME, I come back in town from Arizona. I make sure I get me 2 plates of whatever on the menu.”

“Visited for my first time on Saturday with daughter & granddaughter. We were treated to complimentary beignets which were melt in your mouth delicious. Their GF menu is extensive & impressive as well. I had shrimp and grits…so tasty! Granddaughter enjoyed chicken and waffles. Our drinks were perfect! Mimosas & Bloody Mary with the perfect amount of spice. Our waiter, “Lurch” was knowledgeable & insisted on “carding” me which automatically bumped up his tip. Overall, great experience and we’ve already made plans to return. Recommend 10/10.”

“The BEST cinnamon roll you will find �”

“This was our first time going here. We had heard good things about it. We had the boudin burger and I have to say it was yummy! Slightly spicy , great taste. Also had sweet potatoes fries. The y were good a bit over cooked but still good! A nice change from the average burger places. We will definitely go back. Price wise, not bad, 3 burgers and 2 fries about $44 dollar's. I guess waits can be long if they are busy, but I believe you can call in order and pick up if you don't want to sit in your car and wait. Definitely worth a try!!”

“very good service. the food was delicious”

“The food always taste so good and is affordable! Fast service and the people here are so nice! Definitely my go to Asian spot !”

“Just tried some of the macarons this morning- picked it up at nobilitea since I work during store hours 😭 OMG I’m sad I’ve went this long without trying them. So delicious and beautifully made! Love that I was able to buy them through nobilitea, but will eventually take a day off work just to visit the bakery.”

“I was blown away by their coffee, it is unquestionably the best coffee i have ever had in my life. I tried them for the first time 10/26 and i will be a customer for life”

“Aspen Creek in Tyler has always delivered excellent quality food. The selections are full range and always delicious. My servers have always been very attentive and courteous. Thank you for a wonderful dining experience.”

“If you love cheesecake, you have to try Bryan’s! I love the variety and it tastes amazing! I just tried the 24 karat cheesecake and omfg, I’m in heaven!”

“The presentation was stellar. The food and service were perfect. Scallops are the hardest to get right but they did an amazing job. The olive tapenade before the meal is worth the price of the meal! Subdued atmosphere is great for date!”

“Always a wonderful experience when we eat here. Today our sever, Nevia did a fantastic job. Despite being busy on a Sunday she was personable and easy to talk to. Thank you!”

“Excellent food and great service their horchata is delicious! I would try multiple different foods on their menu!”

“My wife and I dropped in to The Catch for a little dinner, and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. We found the food to be quite good...delicious, in fact, and not over-priced, and a most relaxed atmosphere. It was refreshing to be "laid back" and not at all "stuffy". They had an employee named Megan that was delightful...very personable and made our visit to The Catch so enjoyable that it will not be "one and done"; we will be back!”

“Very good food and service! I ordered the "lunch special" with pork chops, mashed potatoes, and green beans. The chops were nice and juicy, with brown gravy. If I would have known how big they were, I would have ordered the "senior"pork chop, which came with only 1 chop. I couldnt finish it all. The potatoes were instant, but very well seasoned. The only thing that kept me from giving the food 5 stars, was the green beans were still a little crunchy. My wife ordered the senior CFS; It was large enough that she could only eat half. It was a frozen, pretty breaded patty, but very tasty. The cream gravy was from a mix, but tasted like Pioneer mix, which I think is the best mix out there. We will return next time we are in Tyler, as I want to sample the Mexican menu.”

“Servings size was great, brisket and turkey leg is the go to….”

“Great service. Will be back!”

“Amazing food and great service!!!”

“Best of the best! Great food and bakery items! Make a trip and take home a sack full of pan (Mexican sweets)! Stop in for a breakfast taco on fresh tortillas! Yummy 😋 Sorry I ate the taco before the pic! Lol 😂 Make sure to say hi to the owner Nacho too! He is awesome!”

“Passing through Tyler Texas, 3 of us ate here and rate this a 12! Service great, staff professional, warm, friendly, food was absolutely wonderful. We were sang to by a very sweet man! This was the best experience, relaxing, good food, good service, peaceful atmosphere. Would absolutely stop by again!”

“The most amazing Cajun seafood type restaurant I've ever been to. Reminded me a lot of Pappadeaux but honestly the food was better at half the price. Highly recommend”

“spotted them at a pop up at the old Shoguns. they had an amazing deal for their cute pouch energy drinks . friendly and great customer service!”

“This BBQ is so good. I was really blown away by the Godfather burger. The hospitality and music were really special. We will definitely be back for more. And the Moonshine Lemonade, how do I say this…….whoo 😁😎 very good.”

“Fantastic Pineapple Chicken Curry! @highlight”

“I’ve honestly been nervous to try this place considering my tall country ass ain’t accustomed to this style, especially compared to my usual taco or burger places, but I’m so glad I tried it. Been meaning to eat “healthier “ but it’s hard to pass up a good taco. Then my friend that works here” gently nudged” me to try it. I have now been coming here bout once every other week and I haven’t found anything I really disliked. The pitas are like the ultimate fluffy tacos, veggies always looked and tasted fresh and probably cleaned, and I’ll be dadgumed if I ain’t addicted to their lame here. Atmosphere is still little iffy for me but I just put on my headphones and jam out while I pig out. Eating here is definitely worth the trip despite the second hand embarrassment of me trying to pronounce some of their items.”

“One of my absolute favorite places to eat! Always good everytime!”

“We really love Andy’s. We like the fact they launched an app to track rewards. We can also upload cash to the app and pay with the app. This comes in handy if we have been walking the trails and want a quick treat and we don’t have our wallets. However, not all employees are trained on how to take payment from the app. On numerous occasions we have been told “I don’t know how to do that”. Tonight we were actually told “you can’t use the app to pay”. When I questioned further she said “I don’t know how to do it, so you can’t use it”. Why couldn’t she go ask someone how to do it?”

“Love the shop! Brady is a fantastic man to meet and talk to. Dublin Fog was great!”

“How convenient is it to be able to quickly drive through and get A COOKIE when you need it??? Love this new location for them. The cookies are amazing and the employees are always helpful & cheerful. And since there's a new Cookie of the Month every month, how can you not do a quick drive-by to get it?”

“Perfect place to study or work. Always the best service and coffee!”

“For many years while living in Washington state; Papa Murphy’s was our go-to pizza for family and with the Boy Scout troop. Now we live in Texas and we are very Happy to have found this Papa Murphy’s in Tyler,
with the same great quality and service.”

“One of my absolute favorite places to eat! Always good everytime!”

“I was first introduced to this lovely bakery by one of my mom’s dear friends. After Mom spent two months in the hospital, her friend brought us dinner to celebrate her homecoming. When she learned I was gluten-free, she returned the next day with a pumpkin spice cupcake and a blueberry muffin from Joyfull Bites. I devoured the cupcake in minutes and the muffin didn’t last much longer the next day! Today (Saturday), I finally visited the bakery myself and came home with lunch for Mom and me, plus a few extra treats. Everything was absolutely wonderful, and the owner is such a kind and beautiful soul. I even picked up two extra goodies to share with fellow gluten-free friends…got to spread the love! I’m not a local, as I’m here caring for my elderly parents, but Joyfull Bites will definitely be a regular stop whenever I’m in town. Thank you for bringing such a wonderful bakery to Tyler!”

“First time eating there. Good food! Friendly staff.”

“Merry Christmas everyone. Thanks for the great pizzas!”

“Review of server Emma. Excellent service!!!!”

“I was just passing through and thought I’d stop by for a genuine margarita and large appetizer. It was great! I sat there really impressed and read a few reviews as I rarely post reviews because everyone’s opinion is different. If you’re going to venture off the beaten path don’t be so picky; enjoy the experience. If the oysters are bad simply bring it to their attention and I promise they’ll come make it right. PEOPLE, y’all don’t have to review only the ones less than perfect. Are YOU anywhere near perfect? Gods listening.”

“Just completed our first visit to China King Chinese Buffet in Tyler, Texas. We found nothing worthy of lowering the rating except we arrived on a Sunday afternoon along with many others. The atmosphere was like a carnival with so many families and children running around. Had we chosen a different time, I'm certain the atmosphere would have been more to our liking. Food was delicious and service was impeccable. We plan to make this our #1 choice for Chinese food.”

“Absolutely the best pizza I’ve had in years. Buttered garlic crust, fresh veggies and the meats look and taste as if they are cooked onsite and not frozen. Greatness 👍 Staff was friendly and the decor was a throwback with a Speakeasy vibe.”

“I went here over the summer when I was on vacation. Crystal was by far my favorite entertainer. I loved the way she teased me into getting a dance from her, and she was so hilarious too. She came all the way from dallas to work and is a very rare kind of entertainer to find in this industry, especially nowadays. She's definitely an entertainer worth keeping and I hope to see her again the next time I visit”

“Merry Christmas everyone. Thanks for the great pizzas!”

“I'm really mad at myself for taking so long to come to this restaurant. Everything was great, and I highly recommend the grilled redfish. My new favorite restaurant.”
