⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Terry’s Place is hands down one of the best dining experiences we’ve had in the area. If you’re looking for a local restaurant with amazing food, top-notch service, and a welcoming atmosphere, this is it. Everything from the moment we walked in was 100% on point. The food was absolutely incredible—fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Every dish came out perfectly prepared, and you can tell they take pride in both quality and consistency. It’s not easy to find a place where everything hits, but Terry’s Place delivers. What really made the experience stand out, though, was our server, Sarah. She was genuinely one of the best servers we’ve ever had—friendly, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. She made us feel taken care of without ever being overbearing, and her recommendations were spot on. You can tell she truly cares about the guests and the experience she provides. If you’re searching for the best restaurant in the area with great service, delicious food, and a staff that goes above and beyond, Terry’s Place should be at the top of your list. We’ll absolutely be back—and we’ll be asking for Sarah every time.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We went to Terry's on a weeknight, and the place was full and busy, as usual. The parking lot always has lots of vehicles, but plenty of space. We were seated quickly by the hostess. Our server, Janet, was friendly and attentive. Our order arrived quickly. They have a lot of menu options, and the plates have big servings! My parents ordered the Jalapeño Burger and the Fried Fish with Onion Rings. They eat here often, because they like the casual environment, large servings, and tasty food. They have trivia nights on Monday evenings. There are a couple of pool tables next to a juke box. They have a bar and surrounding tables, plus a separate dining area. There is a nice, outdoor patio with several picnic tables, and a large screen television. There are many televisions throughout the establishment. Terry's Bar and Grill has been a well-loved, casual restaurant with large servings, and an upbeat bar, visited by regular patrons for decades!

Normally love it here but it has dropped quality. Everytime come for liquor there’s an issue but we try if different bartender and rum runner got rum and pineapple no topper no grenadine no liquor in taste so had to add shot to it then food takes forever and appetizer after food and had hair in it so sent back and told if want remake hour wait yet we ordered well before got packed and so our steaks were cooked wrong but hungry by time we waited and didn’t want to wait for remakes on that either and then receipt is higher because prices on menu do not match with the computer just as such they don’t offer some things on menu we tried to order and went for music but couldn’t hear a thing as placed near but so loud yet not in same area because reserved tables yet when we have called before for reservations we have been told they don’t do that so odd they did tonight for some so just sad to see a beloved place go down in quality

Stephanie was absolutely amazing! From the moment we sat down, she made us feel welcomed and taken care of. She was friendly, attentive, and had such a positive energy the entire time. You can tell she genuinely cares about her customers and takes pride in what she does. Our drinks stayed full, the food came out perfectly, and she made the whole experience enjoyable. If you get Stephanie as your server, you’re definitely in good hands. Highly recommend asking for her

Food was excellent, other than we weren't able to get steak sauce because they were out. One of the employees came to our table, addressed an "issue" loud enough for others around us to hear and stare at us, we almost walked out. Our waitress was nice enough, but we weren't told anything about any specials. Other diners coming in afterwards were, however. Even though it was really delicious and hearty, the food took forever to come out. We ordered Jalapeno Cheese Poppers (no photo) for our appetizer, which were served with marinara, although we would have rather been asked for an option, such as ranch to dip it in. My MiL ordered grilled pork chops with steak fries. We assume the garlic bread the waitress delivered just before our food came out was to go with this meal. My husband had The Belly Buster. I ordered a large philly cheese steak with added mushrooms. The sandwiches didn't come with sides, but I ordered a side of curly fries to round it out. Since I had never dined here, I didn't know how LARGE the portions were, so we had plenty to take home and utilize for several future meals. I'm not saying I wouldn't go back and hope for a better experience; I'm just not going to go out of my way to eat there again.

My wife heard about Terry’s Place on TikTok and we decided to try it after work. When we got there, the parking lot was packed! We ordered from her phone while sitting outside and the woman that took our order was extremely pleasant, taking time to make suggestions and ensuring our order was correct. The music was playing and everyone seemed to be having a great time. There were families with children of all ages, young and old adults as well. Our wait time for our dinner was about 30 minutes. We drove home with our food and when we opened the containers, we were amazed!! My wife got a Swiss mushroom room burger with onion rings and that could have fed both of us! I had ordered the Monday fish special which included 2 fish fillets that were each too large to fit in the container, 10-12 large shrimp, fries, and coleslaw. I can honestly say that this is the best fish dinner for the price I ever remember eating. The portions, price, and taste were all outstanding. We highly recommend Terry’s Place and bet you will be as amazed!!!
