Downtown Grill

We tried to visit on Saturday, January 2, 2016 and the restaurant was no longer in business.

Went thrre today and thry have closed for good. Don’t know why, good was good, always people there. Disappointed.

Food as very good but staff seemed stretched on tables… service was pleasant but slow. We have been coming there for years. Many of the original staff left last year seemingly en masse and the service suffered. It isn’t what it used to be… just lacks the personality it once had. We miss the former crew (Jesse, Jason, Scott, etc).
Hopefully the restaurant can recover…

We’ve had a few parties at the Downtown Grill. They have a perfect and beautiful room especially for parties of about 25 guests. The food is always delicious and the staff is excellent. The manager was very helpful in planning the parties and always followed up to be sure everything was in order. Definitely can’t say enough good things about this restaurant and staff. Super helpful and courteous. Food is great too!

I really liked this place. Clean, friendly, and great food. I will definitely be back again when I come through town.

Had another great meal with a great new waiter from Hawaii! Asian salad was so yummy and all of us enjoyed our meals!

My favorite spot to eat breakfast!!! Friendly service & people with fantastic food. It is great family atmosphere! I highly recommend it, you won’t be disappointed!!!

Great place! Was up here for my nephew’s baptism and this place was recommended to us for a great dinner. The shrimp and grits were the best outside of Charleston. Servive was lacking at the table but the bartender made up for it. All on all a fin great night out.

Cockroach scurried across bar top right in front of me. Loud, cussing employees hanging out and carrying on at bar. I won’t be back.

The food here is soooo good you won’t be disappointed whatsoever, the sir a cha shrimp is filled with heat and the slaw is very well paired with it, the Blue chips are a must have, I had the blue plate special chicken and the cornbread is so freshly homemade taste, my wife’s steak and onions was very good and her sweet potato casserole was so good, We soo coming back here again, the food is good and the service is excellent.

Service was great. Firecracker shrimp and bleu cheese chips were great and large. Asian chicken salad was fresh and excellent. Apple molasses pork tenderloin was picture perfect. I was on travel and stumbled upon this gem. Don’t be deterred by the strip mall appearance. Very classy décor are very surprising. Every bite of food was delicious and inexpensive. I will definitely visit this establishment the next time I am in Tyrone.

The food here has always been really good but when you ask the girl behind the bar which beers they have in a bottle and she replies «oh we have everything» as she reads of a list Mich Ultra, Bud Light, Coors Light, there is a problem.
That would be a great list if this was 1989. Come on management get a clue. You didn’t have a single beer worth drinking. We are in the midst of a craft beer craze and your most exotic name is Stella? There was about ten beers available on tap and all were bland, weak beers your dad might have drank. We were there at 6pm on a Friday and the only other person in the bar was J the town Drunk. We left, I wanted a beer that had some flavor with my meal.

My Husband and I stopped here for a quick bite to eat and a few drinks. We currently live in Alabama, and have been enjoying a lot of southern style cooking. I expected the same from this place upon ordering a blue plate special with pot roast, mashed potatoes, collard greens, and cornbread. I very much enjoyed the pot roast and mashed potatoes. The gravy was thick, but full of flavor. The potatoes had that «homemade» texture to them. Not whipped, with small chunks of potato and skins. The collard greens were very plain, they were cooked perfectly, but they lacked the flavor of vinegar that I love so much, and the pieces of ham tasted a bit like chewing on a rubber band. Also, the cornbread was ridiculously dry. I took a bite, and after chewing a few times it felt like the corn meal had expanded and gotten thicker. A sip of Water was not much of a help to me.
The waitress was very delightful, and checked up on us enough but not too much to impede on our experience. I must also say that our meals were served quickly.

I really enjoy coming here when I’m visiting the area for work. I feel totally comfortable eating alone here, there’s a small happy hour crowd at the bar. I had the lamb lollipops and they weren’t 5 stars, a bit tough maybe overdone, but I finished my plate. The bed of risotto it was served on was excellent! I very much enjoyed it and the squash. The wine is also good for the price. I will come again.

This is a hidden gem! Every time I go here, there’s never a crowd & never a wait to get seated. Or could be that I go at the perfect time when everyone is either at work & in school. The food is great and the service is okay. The fried green tomatoes are awesome! Today we tried the gator bites and they were okay. They even brought us a couple more cause they were on the small side. The smaller ones were a little tough but still good. The cajun turkey club sandwich was delicious. My hubby and I split it along with fries & we both were full. So for a little under $ 35 it wasn’t bad. (Gator bites, fried green tomatoes, 1 cajun turkey club sandwich with fries, 2 sweet teas, & 1 miller lite)

I’ll have to add a «pleasantly surprised». It’s on the upscale end for Tyrone, relatively speaking.
The food was fresh and good, and our server was professional and attentive, and we never felt forgotten. Looked like a nice place to take your mom out, or for larger parties, with a private room.
It seemed like it took a little while for the food to get to the table, but not horrifically so. Staff was friendly. Will have to try something from the bar next time. Would be great to highlight some cocktails they did really well in a separate cocktail menu. There were drinks listed in the menu, but the list started with Irish coffee, which makes me think it’s an after-​dinner drink list. I liked that the bar and its large screen TVs were set off from the main dining area. Good spot for a beer, with a couple of booths as well.

Not much for ambiance but the food is really good. They offer a great variety for whatever you are hungry for. Big salads, all very fresh. Friendly service.
Perfect place for a bite to eat before the show at The Legacy Theatre.

This place is average and typical of a restaurant in tyrone. Nothing to write home about but also nothing to really complain about.
If you don’t feel like cooking or need to meet someone for lunch and want to play it «safe» this is the spot.
Nothing will blow you away (at least nothing that I’ve tried to date and I’ve tried much of the menu).
They do have a Nestle tollhouse pie that’s pretty good

Great little restaurant with all the nice treats you need for lunch. The chips are to die for. The chicken salad sandwich is excellent! Try anything and you will love it. Potato soup is the bomb too.
