Restaurants in Garner

“Reviewers often disappoint me. I often wonder about their motives. I am a huge fan of Thai cooking, as well as other Asian dishes. The food here is authentic and absolutely delicious. No, it is not cheap, but it is "fair" considering the quality and service you are receiving. (In life, you usually get what you pay for.) Nice quiet bar if you like. The overall atmosphere is awesome. Great location at White Oak shopping center in Garner. Give it a try! It can be spicy. I usually get the 4-star wherever I go. Here I dropped down 2-star. And it is still amazing. I really like the Korean BBQ spring rolls over the regular spring rolls. The Green and Panang Curry dishes are delicious. Two friends bragged about the Pad Kee Moo (Drunken Noodle)”

“We dined in. Outlet waitress was great but the food was horrible. My family and I came on 2/5/23.”

“I'm a local resident and you can't buy my reviews. Good or bad they come from multiple visits.Over the past 5 years, Mi Peru has consistently been one of our favorite restaurants for authentic food. You can tell it's made with care.They recently updated their technology and menus so if that was something that put you off, it's time to revisit. Their takeout/delivery containers are also good quality.You'll see people from peru or around eating there and chatting up the place. Students from duke who are studying abroad come here for the homemade food. The staff and owners are always friendly and even when busy they seem to be able to keep up with drinks etc.The food is just like your grandma used to make, just Peruvian style. Good portions, freshly made, seasoned well.Take a chance and try them for dine in, takeout or delivery.”

“Sadly, for the prices, we won't be back again. The food is good, servers are wonderful, just can't constitute paying these prices for what I get anymore.We have been coming here since it opened.I hate it too, as Garner has few restaurants.”

“Quaco was not only entertaining but also very engaged with our party. His culinary skills were unmatched and his persona was full of energy and highly enthusiastic. If you find yourself dinning here, Guaco would be the choice!”

“Honestly, I stopped going to WingStop because the food and customer service (I.e. attitude) here is much better in comparison. A little pricier but still pretty good and cooked exactly how I specify each time. I only take off a star because they introduced a new garlic Parm flavor for wings and tenders and now it's seemingly gone out of nowhere.”

“My server was Lori she was awesome great service food was amazing if Lori isn’t working I don’t come in I only come in if she’s there because it’s guaranteed I will have a pleasant meal without any issues ask for Lori when you come in”

“Neat little spot in Historic Downtown Garner that is the oldest bar in the quaint and historic downtown. Great spot, nice patrons and staff — a fun place to go. They do lots of special events that can be enjoyed by folks with varying tastes and preferences. I live within walking distance and enjoy walking over to see everyone! Come and check it out!”

“Down home country folk with the occasional northerner and thats just fine. This place is a family all their own and they love the new ones who come to join the private party. Beware its a hell of a go but atleast here you are going!”

“I was working in the area and decided to have some lunch. Hibachi 88 was right around the corner, so I placed an order using the Yelp app. I usually order Hunan Chicken, steamed rice and an egg roll when I go somewhere for the first time. I picked my order and got to work. I had a bowl with the entree, rice separated in a small box, and egg rolls in the wax pouch. The Hunan chicken had lots of chicken with just the right amount of zucchini, snap peas, mushrooms, and broccoli. Everything was quite tasty and the vegetables were cooked nicely. The rice was soft and not too sticky. The egg rolls were flaky on the outside with lots of flavorful cabbage and shrimp on the inside. All in all, it was exactly what I was hoping for. I'll be back when I'm in the area.”

“Absolutely top notch in every way”

“Not since dining on Terrania's shores have I tasted a pizza as remarkable as this. I can't recommend Amore Mio any higher, would gladly give more stars, but we're limited to 5.”

“I’ve never been to a brewery before where I could drink each and every beer. Usually it’s one or two that I will drink. This place is amazing! Each beer is actually great and the owners are even better! Wonderful, welcoming atmosphere that has quickly become our regular haunt. You won’t be disappointed!”

“Very delicious burgers and fries the Mac and cheese yummy and what can I say about the moonshine!!”

“This place is so nice, cozy, & quaint. The perfect coffee shop and also grab a bite to eat. They have tables and picnic benches where you can dine outside or you can eat inside where they have an upstairs area that is really nice and cozy! The coffee selection is great as well as the lunch menu. Would definitely recommend.”

“Listen.... don't hesitate. I moved here from Raleigh and nooooooo Starbucks. I decided to pop in to try a Caramel Machiatto. Well.... mom and pop cafes usually beat the big guys, and this little spot did NOT disappoint! Go! The menu is amazing. Customer service amazing. Like.... just go”

“Their quesabirria tacos are LIFE CHANGING! We come up from Charleston just for these tacos. I also had the asada and pollo tacos and they were delicious as well.”

“Great experience! Wings were the perfect size and done to perfection. The Philly steak sub was on point and their homemade sauce only made it even better. Definitely on our list of Go TOS.”

“My cousin & I came to Lorraine's for the first time. She got a regular Cookie Dough & Vanilla iced latte (left) and I got a Caramel Pecan & Gingerbread frozen. This was the BEST frozen drink I've EVER had!!! So smooth & perfect for somebody with a sweet tooth like me. We both got size regular.”

“My husband worked with Nana’s to make my birthday cake, and it is just what I wanted! It turned out so beautiful and the colors are so vibrant and the cake itself is so yummy. Thank you guys so much! (It cracked on the drive home- it was picked up in perfect condition, but it fits the aesthetic!)”

“I love the food the customer service depends on who’s working and the music is so loud to me you can’t hear to tell the workers your order and I would like to know has any one else has a problem with the workers taking your receipts back from you ?”

“My practice is right across Aversboro coffee and I couldn’t be happier. Their coffee is absolutely amazing! The service is wonderful and caring. Their coffee is truly delicious!”

“I came up to the counter for my first try! Israel *forgive me if I spell it wrong* even offered to let me sample the protein I might be interested in! The atmosphere is really nice with great music. For what you're getting it's WELL worth the price. They've got plenty of options for if you might be vegetarian *not sure about vegan though*. All the workers were really nice! Stop on by!Ask for Israel if he's there. He's a very kind person who knows his stuff ?For reference I got the Seoul box!”

“I had been going to this shopping center for a few months before finally dropping into this shop. First off it was a clean and very welcoming atmosphere. It was quiet and just set the vibe to enjoy a smoothie or juice. I went with the dragonfruit smoothie and a super shot. What I liked most was that they made a delicious smoothie without loading it up with sugar. Even without looking at the menu I could tell it was just the fruits that were listed, no hidden sweeteners or anything like that. It was like drinking a fruit cocktail through a straw. All the flavors came through. The price was only $7!!!! Maybe those additives and preservatives at chains are really expensive because this was a better smoothie at 70 percent of the cost. It will become a staple after I finish working out at the planet fitness next to it. They also have food. I didn't try it, but it smelled delicious.”

“I'm visiting a friend from out of town and was in the mood for some wings. I stumbled upon this fantastic place just seven minutes away from where I was staying, so I decided to call and place an order. The lady who answered the phone was very friendly and answered all of my questions. When I arrived at the restaurant, the young lady at the front welcomed me warmly and guessed my order. She informed me that my food would be ready soon. I decided to dine inside, enjoying the good vibes, great food, and oldies music playing in the background. I also loved the classic car decorations on the walls. This place brings back memories of my childhood and has a nostalgic feel of the 80s and 90s. I wish there was a place like this back home! The food was delicious, and the prices were affordable. I will definitely come back here again”

“The brisket sandwich was absolutely delicious! I had 3 cheese macaroni and baked beans on the side, and all was really good, not to mention the array of sauces. I will definitely be going back!”

“There burritos are killer. Love them. I get steak and chorizo from the ladies suggestion and she wasn't wrong. Will be visiting regularly. Staff is very friendly as well.”

“Love this place, the food was definitely a southern feel of homemade yumminess and the service was amazing. It speaks volumes when majority customers are elderly folks since most of them know how to eat and enjoy the taste and flavors of life. We highly recommend stopping in if your ever in NC. Great southern feel atmosphere with a lot of history on the walls.”

“Great local barbecue place, family friendly atmosphere, everything that I have tried was delicious. One of my go to joints!Parking: Parking lot fills up at peak times, can be backed up because of the drive through line.Kid-friendliness: Kid's menu available.”

“I randomly came up on this coffee spot and decided to try it. I'm so glad I did. Their coffee was crazy good and reasonably priced. You get a lot of bang for your buck. I'm definitely going to go back for a sit down meal at some point.”

“I've never had a bad experience at this location. They're always busy when I go inside. Today, wasn't as busy, but I noticed how professional and polite everyone was. They were all working together for my food as well as making pick up orders. They were happy. It seems like they're a great team and as always, my sub was ”

“This Biscuitville is wonderful. Not only is the food good, the costumer service is great. They are always so pleasant, unlike the Bojangles down the road.”

“The food was great, nice and fresh. Wish the okra was a larger portion and cooked more consistently but other than that, really good food. The customer service was great, the young lady at the window was very patient with me while I took my time to order and was able to answer all questions quickly and efficiently. The fish was bussss and the side items were really fresh. Loved the hush puppies. Definitely will return!”

“The ladies are so sweet! Every single meal I order from here is filled with flavor, and my favs so far are the torta de asada/carnitas and the quesadilla de pollo ☺️”

“My mother and I headed out for dinner on a bustling Monday evening. Despite the dinner rush, we were promptly seated and treated to complimentary chips and salsa. The menu offered a diverse range of options, and I opted for the chicken chimichangas while my mother chose chicken with rice and salad. Although the meals were delightful, there was a slight hiccup as my mom's dish arrived with onions despite her request otherwise. Nevertheless, the service was impeccable, with attentive staff ensuring our glasses were always full and checking in on us throughout the meal.The portions were generous enough to share, and I ended up taking half of my meal home. Admittedly, I couldn't resist indulging in the chips and salsa before my main course arrived—a true test of willpower! Each batch of chips was served warm and crispy, adding to the overall enjoyment of the meal. We spent a satisfying 30 minutes at the restaurant, especially considering it was a Monday.The following day, I enjoyed the leftovers for dinner. After reheating them on the skillet for five minutes, they retained their delicious flavor and didn't disappoint. Given the limited dining options in the area, the experience was decent overall.Parking: Parking lot but minimum parking spots. This area will get full when it starts to get warmer to sit outside.”

“Very helpful hostess/ take out help. Delicious Philly cheese steak! The seasoning on the fries...yum! Will definitely order again when I'm back in the area.”

“Super cute ice cream shop. Kids love it for after Karate. Lots of great ice cream options. They also have edible cookie dough which was super good (first time I’ve had it). The wife got an Italian ice scoop. We’ve been a few time since they opened.”

“Definitely will recommend!! Merendero Jireh ensures the authenticity of the Honduran culture delicacy, and to my astonishment I found myself enjoying these exquisite menu options.”

“Amazing food and awesome service 10/10 would recommend to anyone. Food takes a little bit longer to come out but 100% worth the wait. My family and I will definitely be returning.”

“Bellamy is awesome, he’s literally been working here forever-always visibly seen working hard and always very nice to everyone. hope he is manager by now. also miss the prior manager, a short, balding guy.”

“Choice of Snoopy's regular or Bright Leaf. Good fries. We were going to Cleveland and needed some lunch "wow Snoopy's that'll work!" Hot Dog chili and ”

“Great food and service. Everyone was friendly. I got a beef hot dog. It was delicious! I ordered 2 because I was expecting them to be small but they were not. They split it so it lays on the bun.”

“Fun times! Went to see a local band called Southern Misfits Band there. Great band ! Check them out if Facebook to see where tgere playing next. Lots of good entertainment and bar food and drinks.”

“Next to last day of closing. They lost their lease after all these yrs. Lines of people continually in & out today the 23 rd. Food was great. Service was great. Atmosphere great. Hope you're able to find a new site !!! Love your food ! You will be missed. Best cheese logs in the country ?”

“Honestly I couldn’t get back to my job fast enough these were amazing ??. I ordered the quesabrirrias << spelt wrong lol ?. But they were amazing !! ?Dietary restrictions: I’m allergic to red meat and they were able to make it with chicken!! Absolutely in love .”

“What a pleasant surprise! I was getting tires across the street and just happen upon this place. No joke, the chicken burrito I got was really great. Easily in the top 3 Mexican food trucks I visit in the entire Raleigh area. It could easily be the best, just depends on the taste you’re after at this point. Definitely try it out. Only downside now js I’ll have to fight the steering wheel every time I drive by. Thanks!”

“I love the food. My favorite is the grilled salmon salad. I also Love the 100 grade rating. I didn’t rate it 5 stars because the lighting is always so dim that it’s hard to read the menu. Also, the bathroom is extremely old so always looks dirty. I only saw one bathroom and that was for both men and women. That is unusual for a restaurant.”

“This is literally the best Chinese food I’ve ever had in my life!! The plate was filled all the way up and the food was delicious and hot? the website was super easy to navigate and the staff was super nice 10/10 all ”

“Come here multiple times over the years. Friendly and fun staff. Great food selection. Clean. Reasonable wait time for food. No withing for seating. Food is tasty.Vegetarian options: Wife us vegan and had no problem with menu selection. She often initiates going there.”

“Had dinner with my family here. Everyone's food was excellent. Our waitress was fantastic. She kept checking to see if we needed anything even though she was busy.”

“I have dined here twice and have had good experiences! I love the layout of the restaurant and they have axe throwing and arcade games. The first time I stopped in was for a beer and warm pretzel sticks with cheese and mustard. They have Hell Yes Ma'am on tap and it's one of my favorites. The second time I had lunch with my boyfriend. He had the Reuben and I had the chicken Philly. My sandwich was just ok, but the Reuben was delicious. I will definitely order that the next time I dine here. All of the waitstaff are very friendly and on top of their game. I'm looking forward to returning and trying out axe throwing.”

“Vegetarian options: They offer a vegetable plate for which you can choose 3 sides. There are not a lot of options but it is available even if not listed on the menu.”

“Plenty of pool tables,great hospitality,drinks were good,only thing all the food we order was VERY undercooked.Cheesesticks cheese was not melted and the fries were barley cooked.Everything was nice and okay but the food”

“This is a sports bar from top to bottom, which is a good thing if that's what you a looking for. Two pool tables and large TV's all around the restaurant. Large outdoor seating area. Unbeknownst to us it was trivia night. There were lots of teams but the place did not seem packed. They have a very good selection of beer and a full bar. We started with FRIED BACON! OMG it was as good as it sounds if that's what you are into. I got the burger which came with homemade chips. It was cooked just right. The chips and ranch dressing were nothing short of awesome. My wife got the club and chips. It was full of fresh turkey, ham, bacon, tomato, and lettuce. Big thumbs up from her.”

“I eat at this place alot. If you want quality Indian food, this is the place. I've never been disappointed. Everything I've ordered has been the very best.”

“Come in and take in the history. Talk to the people. This area was once something besides neighborhoods and shops. It was once a community where people knew each other.”

“We use to eat here at least once a week but have noticed changes the past few months. The staff is not as friendly as they use to be. The garlic knots are not nearly as good, they have been cold in the middle as if they are warming them up in a microwave. Pizza is still good but after today's visit we will have to say goodbye for a while.”

“Very nice, fast food. Eat in is on plates with silverware, but the food came in just a couple minutes. We ordered the lunch special of the day - Hibachi Shrimp x 2. That came with a large serve yourself soft drink -- $17 total. I'd definitely eat here again.”

“I come here nearly 4 days a week around noon Monday and Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. I wish I knew her name, but she is great at customer service and the only reason I keep coming back. She has memorized my order, and I don't even need to say anything when I come in. If I forget something, she reminds me. I can't say enough about her. There's another young lady who usually works with her and she is just as kind and typically knows what I'm looking for. See you Monday!”

“i absolutely ADORE this starbucks and it's the only one i ever want to go to. every single person in there works so hard and is always so so nice to me. my drink is always delicious and they've always been super accommodating.”

“Very friendly staff!! Can’t go wrong with anything on the menu, especially the protein waffle. Highly recommend attending a Zumba class very energetic and environment is great!”

“I took a group of 33 students and adults on a field trip to this restaurant. Ms. Patrick and her staff were amazing! I called to place the order ahead of time. When we arrived, our food was hot and fresh, ready for students to enjoy. The restaurant was clean and the staff was very friendly and helpful. This was the first stop on our field trip, and it was an amazing way to start our week! I highly recommend this amazing restaurant, thanks to Ms. Patrick and her staff!”

“Love the grill option. Fixed a vegetarian plate made spicy. Excellent. Came after lunch and the buffet was just as full as the beginning of the day. Excellent service.”

“We absolutely love Chanellos! From the amazing pizza and the desserts hit the spot! This is our go to friday night pizza place! The owner is above and beyond friendly! Don’t wait TRY THIS PIZZA PLACE!”

“Delicious food. I ordered the beef with garlic sauce dinner combo and the Pork Lo Mein. Everything tasted and looked freshly prepared and the flavors really popped. The egg roll is also delicious. Money well spent and I will definitely order from here again!”

“Nice young peeps welcoming us in . Young white guy and girl with pretty eyes .Delicious pizza but 12 wings for almost $20 ! You crazy ! Change prices on wings .Keep up the great work otherswise .❤️”

“Second time this week this mama got a break to get a coffee in target and I was super pleased with the service! The barista was very kind and helpful with my order today as she was Monday! They were great for being so busy for the holidays and there being only two of them. I would say the only unpleasant part of my experience was the impatient holiday shoppers that I was surrounded by, but that is to be expected this time of year.”

“As you approach this facility, you’ll find the adjacent streets may have trucks parked along the curb awaiting their delivery appointments because the onsite staging/parking is limited to 9 spaces on the right, across from the 11 dock doors on the left. Check-in is in the far corner of the building, near dock door 1. For early deliveries, they will take your bills and write your phone number on them and call you once they have a door for you. This doesn’t take very long as they seem to work deliveries in and out at a good pace. There currently is no driver lounge but there is one port-o-john near the office ramp for your personal needs.”

“Friendly. I know Covid is over but I just do not like people not wearing a face guard of some type while making my food. Sub's are usually cold. I cannot heat up the lettuce and mayo to burn away bacteria just because you're too lazy to put on a mask. Wear a mask.”

“Everyone is so kind and work incredibly hard to make your drinks the way you ordered. Very helpful and understanding to whatever you need, I was having the worst day and All of the beautiful baristas made it brighter thank you thank you thank you they deserve everything”

“It's alright place to go, wish the people working were a little more personable. The flavors, were ok, however some of the flavors have been there for a long time, need to change up a little more. Good times with the family ”

“I had a great experience here this morning. The ladies were so friendly and helpful. If there’s any vegans in the area, definitely try the Caribbean jerk wrap with plant chickn protein!! Super good and plus you can get a smoothie too since there’s limited options in this area.Vegetarian options: Carribean Jerk Wrap with Plant Chick’n Protein”

“Excellent food, service, and atmosphere! Highly recommend having dinner here and make a reservation if planning to go Friday or Saturday as it gets very busy after 5 ”

“The location is terrific and so is everything else about this bar and restaurant at White Oak Crossing in Garner. Excellent service and food. Nice outside patio and good entertainment most evenings. Lots of laughs and good music.”

“I’ve been going to La Roma for years and I’ve never been disappointed. Food is always superb and service exceeds expectations. Please take my word for it, this is hands down one of the top pizzerias in the city. Count on your food to be freshly made by fantastic individuals. Don’t forget to add wings to your order ?”

“Jerica was absolutely amazing it was her first time alone. We were her 3rd customers ever and we couldn’t believe it. She acted like she had been doing this job for years. Knew the menu like the back of her hand and constantly checked in on us to make sure we were properly accommodated and taken care of. Chilis has a star in the making thank you so much for the great service Jerica!”

“I have been going to Cracker Barrel for many years all over the East Coast and have always been treated like a friend but the one on Hwy 42 in Garner N.C. is almost in my back yard and go there all the time and have many good friends there and some that are like FamilyDietary restrictions: They use lite seasoning for seniors who can't have a lot of salt or other seasoning”
