★★★★☆ 4.0 David Williams · Feb 2026

Nice place, Good food, good service. Wanted a burger, so decided to go here. Slaw was a little bland, added some Texas pete to liven it up. Nothing spectacular, but good solid sandwichs.

★★★★★ 5.0 Alex W · Feb 2025

Me and a friend tried this location for dinner for the first time. For the appetizer we had the Grilled Chicken fingers. For the entrée I had the Ribeye Sandwich with fries. My friend had the Salmon with baked potato. Both entrées were delicious! My biggest surprise was how amazing the String Beans tasted! Man were they delicious! The service, and atmosphere at the bar was exceptional.

I have been going to this restaurant for years. Just noticed that the amount they charge you (sub total) is not correct. My bill today should have been 16.33 (food 12.99+ drink 1.99 +1.35 tax, which included (state 6%, Cayce 1%, and 2% CC fee). Instead my bill was 16.90 (15.50 food/drink+1.40 tax). Only a difference of .57 but, still not correct. My friend's bill was also incorrect due to the sub total being higher than it should be. We did ask the waitress she said it had something to do with the tax. I don't think she really knew why. I guess this is a good way to make money. Vella's has been a staple in Cayce for years, if this is an honest mistake they need to get it corrected.

We've been coming here for years. We would come more often but for the drive from Lexington. Tasty fresh food. Sandwiches and wings are great. Also, consistantly fresh draft Yuengling, which we seem to have a problem getting at Lexington bars, including Wings n Ale and Goodfellows.

★★★★★ 5.0 Colene Belli · Aug 2024

Atmosphere received 5 because of my personal preference. It’s dark, dated but clean. Are there some light bulbs out? Yes. Does that matter to me? In this case no. I looked around and see hard working people cleaning tables, a very friendly welcome upon arrival and received excellent service from Lexis. I hear people laughing and see a fairly full bar for a Wednesday at 8pm making the atmosphere lively and up beat. I ordered the prime rib sandwich that did not disappoint, was cooked as I asked and promptly served. A highlight for me was the “raw potatoes” and home made ranch Lexis brought because she thought I’d like it. Very happy overall - great to find a place away from home with a warm welcome. Lexis
