8.10.25: Finally had a chance to check out this place. It was a Sunday afternoon and it wasn't very…read morebusy when we walked in. Nice, big clean space and not cluttered. My friend is into Philly Cheesesteaks and I wanted to try the veggie rice bowl. So at the ordering counter, there's a bell to ring for help or to ask questions. With that said, it's a DIY kiosk tablet that was pretty simple and user friendly. My friend got a traditional Philly Ribeye Cheesesteak with extra cheese and an order of cheese fries. I got the veggie rice bowl with all the veggies offered except for jalapenos. I choose 2 sauce options: soy aioli and gochujang. I also got a side order of fries. My veggie bowl arrived hot and steamy and had a pretty good flavor profile considering I chose 2 sauces. Rice to veggies was proportionate and the portion itself was worth the value too. If there's any suggestion, it would be to use a different rice or add a little water to it throughout the day as it's on the warmer so it doesn't dry out as fast. I'm a bit weird and like my veggies slightly undercooked and will ask for that next time. Overall, I enjoyed the veggie rice bowl. Now, the fries were amazing! Great crisp, tender inside, and best of all it had this texture I only come across sometimes. I tried to take a pic to capture what I mean. But ikyk! My friend, at first glance of his Philly, wondered where all the cheese was since he ordered extra cheese. Well, it's safe to say it was nicely folded into the meat because after taking a few bites, he said it really liked it and that it was definitely cheesy. He got 2 different cheeses and said next time he will order extra peppers. He also made mention of the bread used and how he liked it and that the bread used could make or break the sandwich. In the end, he wished he ordered another sandwich to-go for later lol. The cheese fries were SUPER CHEESY so if you're into that, definitely order it. There was only 1 gentleman working, cooking, and cleaning. I want to guess he was the owner. He was really friendly and helpful and cooked us up a great lunch. On a sidenote, bathrooms need a code and the women's was really clean.

Thank you for that. Employees here are all really friendly and upbeat. Sometimes getting your food can be a little slow, but it is good stuff, and anyone who knows cheese steaks is they sometimes take a little longer than a mass fried burger. Just remember what you learned in kindergarten and wait your turn. The place is a little old inside but I actually like that vibe. It is comfortable and familiar. Please ignore the AI hit job fake reviews and the Karens and the weird time that was Covid. This is a hidden gem.

I wouldn't classify this as a "chain" per se, as it is locally owned and has three distinct food offerings. The interior is quaint, clean, and reminds me of the 80's & 90's. Stop in and you won't be disappointed!

In addition to a cool fun vibe, this place is always very clean. Obviously important in any restaurant, but let's be honest, BBQ can be messy. But they keep it very squared away here. Since I have mentioned it already, just want to say they do really good BBQ, especially for Spokane. I do want to note they are a bit spendy, but the great food, atmosphere, and employees make it worth it.

It's wall to wall policemen, firemen, and construction workers. That should be recommendation enough-- you know you're in for big, filling portions featuring protein and fresh bread.

It's noisy, the decor is fun, and the staff and servicemen we see in there are always friendly. This place is a gem.

The veggies are crisp and the grilled panini bread it's served on is so delicious. My roommate ordered the French Dip and he said my pic doesn't do justice compared to its awesome tastiness...he was so impressed and enamored with the quality of meat that he didn't really need the au ju--which is unheard for my roommate lol. On another note, they offer a ton of hot sauces and I tried, Melinda's Ghost Pepper, and it was so fiery good that I'm gonna find myself some. If you like heat, try it! Service was great and ambiance was calm since we came after the lunch rush. Definitely looking forward to our next Smacky's visit!

They also give you a small cookie treat. The sandwich was okay... nothing particularly special, a bit on the thick side which is nice and but was a little heavy on the sprouts for my taste. Overall, it was decent but I'd probably try something different next time. The homemade potato salad, on the other hand, was delicious! My only complaint is the portion size.. you pay $4 for a small serving and I wish they filled the container a bit more. The highlight of my visit was definitely the customer service. The staff were super friendly, charismatic, and really made the experience enjoyable.

Oh boy!! Before considering this establishment for breakfast I looked at the reviews. One review…read moresaid it was "hearty breakfast and lunch fare in a vintage diner with nostalgic decor". Said review could not be further from reality! Terry's is old and rundown, furniture is even older and on its last leg of life. Our food took quite some time to get to us after ordering but oddly enough this place was packed. Despite the old building and furniture we were very surprised to see how busy it was. It was a good mix of young and old but mostly senior age patrons. It felt like I had walked into my widowed 80 year old "Aunt Mary's" house. I don't know if I would recommend this place. The food was mediocre. Menu options were good and I rarely see meatloaf as a breakfast option so that's what I ordered. I kept an open mind when ordering. Waffle was over cooked and hard to eat so we left most of it. Polish sausage was over cooked and hard to chew so hubby didn't eat it all. Meat loaf was ok. Hashbrowns were pleasantly cooked to order. And my eggs were cooked to order. I will say that our waitress was nice, pleasant and friendly enough. It appeared they had local regulars which gave this place an even more humble quaint feel. The coffee cup was small but they topped you off frequently so I did not mind the size of the cup! And bonus, they had french vanilla creamer. Price of menu items was great and the senior and kids menu was very affordable.
