50 Best American Restaurants near Advance

“Went here on a recommendation and thought that the pizza and food selection was varied and reasonably priced. Pizza came out nice and the drink menu had some good options. Would like to go back on another, nicer evening and eat outside and potentially see some of the events and entertainment that they have.
Seems like a good amount of daily/weekly special pricing and offerings too!“

“Great Scott they did it….they have specials!!! A gorgeous outdoor dining area….thankfully non smoking.. And they have the option of really good local seasonal vegetables sautéed!! Thank you thank you!! Now if they would just bring back the Carolina burger!!! LOL….really pleased my salmon cooked perfectly the cheese grits out of this world. Keep those seasonal vege’s coming and the specials.“

“The hostess was excellent last night. Greeted and seated on time! Our waiter Tom was excellent! Very attentive; presented options immediately, got our orders right, and came back often to see if we needed anything. Tom had great balance: not pushy, but also coming back often to check on us.

The food was great: hot, and the steak was tender and flavorful!“

“The food is mouth watering fat and full bellies wonderful!!! Waitress on Saturday morning are great and feel like our family We are returning Saturday morning customers for 9 months not missed one Saturday It’s home away from home Thanks Daisy Mae , bs, lulu, punkie See ya Saturday Have a great merry Christmas“

“We love Dairi-O! We have never, in the years they’ve been open, had a bad meal or a bad experience. The food always tastes fresh and gets out quickly. They have the best hot dogs around. While most of the folks working there are young, they’re always polite (not quite to ChickFila standards but close).“

“I want to take a minute and thank the waitress at the Rusty Gate Cafe for her singing and her beautiful soul she is the sweetest little thing, she was very welcoming as soon as we walked in the door all smiles and made us all feel so welcome like we were family. Felt like we had known her our entire life. The food was excellent, but that little blonde hair waitress just made our experience amazing. We didn't catch her name so please if and when someone sees this please let her know what an amazing waitress and caring soul she has and to never stop singing and letting her light shine“

“The Feed Bag is the best!! Good food, friendly staff, and affordable prices. I’d rather support small town charm than chain restaurants any day of the week - and they don’t disappoint!“

“We came to the restaurant today, Saturday November 8th. We aren’t from Winston, we are actually from Hickory NC and was in town for a party. I will be honest, we were first going to Texas Roadhouse and a last minute look online I found this place. Upon arrival, I was hesitant because there wasn’t many cars in the parking but I am so glad we went in. We got out of the car and they were playing 94.1 which is what we are listening to in the car. The waitress we had was awesome! She had only been there 6-7 weeks she said but she was amazing. The food was very good, especially the Spinach artichoke dip! 10/10 recommend this place! I am a firm believer in tipping and we made sure to give this waitress the tip she deserved. I wish I knew her name….“

“The server was so nice and personable! food was fantastic and the beer selection is immaculate. 10/10 would recommend“

“Great Customer Service. Great food. The fries were awesome. I had the Yellowstone slider and the OG slider. both were great. I'll definietly go back“

“Thanks you so much #psychiczabaza“

“Delicious food! Excellent service“

“1st time using the kiosk to place an order here. It worked great. Food was very good and plentiful. Priced right. Got the Rise&Shine Breakfast, which had scrambled eggs, patty and link sausage, nice size biscuit and home fries. They have grape and strawberry jellies.Always seem to miss the 1st floor elevator that goes down to the ground floor, also known as the basement where Silas Creek Kitchen is located. I'm not the only one to ask "where's the cafeteria?"“

“It may be loud for intimate quiet dining but otherwise the atmosphere is overtly noisy
I could carry on a conversation without problem with friends across the table.
Great selection from menu.
Awesome baby back ribs“

“We absolutely love Cracker Barrel for the atmosphere and celebrating things of the old! Food is amazing and the service has always been good! We love having a chance to look at the gift shop before during an after we eat. They always carry the best of items!“

“Not sure why this place doesn’t have 5 stars. Is close to tons of restaurants, is SUPER clean and appears to be either new or recently updated. The outdoor pool area is clean and has nice furniture and a fire pit. The gym has all of the normal machines and weights. The air co sit-up we was nice and cold. The bed is super comfy. Check in was quick and easy. Super great stay!“

“Had a great oyster feast tonight listening to The Rockers 😎 they sounded awesome!“

“The hostess on Friday around noon was a rude person. This is the third time she’s been unpleasant, she seems to really dislike her job. I would think the host who seats customers would want to start the interaction on a good note. She consistently has a bad attitude and I looks bothered by customers. This trip she didn’t say two words to us while seating or greeting us. I noticed she did the same with most guests.“

“Went to Sixty-Six tonight with some friends. Had a blast the whole night! Staff was extraordinary! Management came over multiple times to check up on us and if everything was good. Place was a little busier at the time when we went but we still got seated and our food was perfect.“

“We had an amazing experience there. Food was delicious. Ribs fell right off the bone and the service was on point. Definitely recommend“

“I've been there twice. incredible food and wonderful service.“

“Love the food. Always good. People are very kind. My chief complaint is I do take out a lot here and they always ask when I pick up about leaving a tip. Okay, yes I will, etc. I always do. The issue I have is when I get home, I am always missing something. One time, no hot chips, next time no dressing, then no bread with dinner meal a few times and today, no drink which came with the meal. Yeah, I got the drop a tip stuff, but drop what I paid for in the bag please.“

“I stopped in to pick up a Baja Turkey Burger for my Mom. She Loves their Turkey Burgers. Her appetite is poor, since, her Stage 4 Cancer could, no, longer be treated. The treatment caused adverse, effects. My Daughters paid her a visit, during, Christmas of 22 and discovered it on the menu. They purchased it. My Mom Loved it and has desired another, since. Today is a great day for her! Thanks for offering and preparing fresh, farm to table options.“

“Love places like this when we are going thru small towns. Kearney did not disappoint. Fun talk with the staff and it was fun when we told them we were rookies. If you are in the area of Lexington you are missing out if you don’t look it up. The pimento cheese burger is the best I’ve had. The 1/2 pound option was my choice however you can have the 1lb option.“

“I've had occasion to eat at Johnny B's since it first opened. All in all it's a great restaurant, the seating is comfortable, the staff is pleasant and efficient, the food is great, and it's very clean. My only negative comments would concern the volume of the music in the background. When you go in for breakfast, or any time really, you don't need the music turned up as loud as it always is. My other negative comment concerns the fact that they are out of tea bags for hot tea quite often. If tea bags don't come when ordered there is a Food Lion right across the parking lot where a box could be purchased. These are minor items overall, and they won't stop us from dining there, but it would be nice to have these issues addressed.“

“Five star! I love the salads & pizza. Staff & service is great!“

“Food was amazing and our server Theresa was awesome!!! ?“

“My wife’s first visit. We tried the fried deviled eggs and they are delicious. Our waitress was fantastic and the rest of our meal was great. More money than you would normally spend on a burger, but worth the extra bucks. Highly recommend.“

“Server was slow and and didn’t bring us not everything we wanted.“

“Ordered a club sandwich and chunky hashbrowns for carryout. A large portion of food and it was delicious!“

“We hosted our wedding dinner in this fabulous place. Maria was wonderful helping us all the way with the menu. Drinks, appetizers and more. Our servers were polite, attentive, friendly and professional, the food was amazing and the drinks were to die for! We recommend this place for your next event or just a nice night out with family and friends 😊“

“Everything is wonderful here at Golden Corral“

“I come to this location pretty often and I've noticed lately that their drive thru line takes a little longer than normal, but today I found out why... I wasn't planning to dine in today, but my 2 year old decided she needed to use the restroom while in the drive thru line. So in I come with my 2 year old and my very heavy 4 month old in his carseat. I had my hands full. After making it to the restroom I place my order, and the woman at the register begins to hand me cups for drinks, but then says "You know what? Why don't don't go find a seat and we will bring your drinks out to you, and anything else you'll need." (If you've never had to hold on to a toddler, carry a 30 lbs carseat, and 2 drinks at one time just know it's a nightmare! So this was such a sweet offer) And they did just that. They brought my drinks and my food out to my table in the middle of breakfast rush, and they didn't have to do that. Then on our way out the same sweet woman at the register came over and held the door open for me so I didn't have to struggle to get it open with the carseat in my hands. All these things might sound small but they were huge blessings to me! They noticed my need and went out of their way to help me with out me even asking. And they were extremely kind! So next time you have to wait a little longer for your biscuit, just know they're probably inside being really kind people, and we need more of that in this world. Thank you Biscuitville! ❤“

“We came in and checked in with hostess..recieved a beeper to be notified when our table would be ready. 4 couples came in behind us...40 min wait...ok no problem. Next thing I see is 4 people come in and see someone they know. They grab chairs from other tables and cram around a 2 top. 6 people on a 2 top. Then a table opens next to them so they take that table over. I asked hostess to handle it. She couldn't so I asked for a manager...BOB...what a joke. He says their friends came in so they were going to do whatever they wanted because I was apparently rude to his hostes. He's not much of a manager if he allows anyone to come in and TAKE A TABLE while 4 other couples that have been waiting 35 min for a table. I'll be in touch with Stephen...aka..the managing partner about BOB and his lack of everything. Hes pathetic. Will never return.“

“I have been to several breakfastimes but this one really does go over the top. they have the best bananas Foster I have had here and I have been to every breakfastime between here and Salisbury! oh yeah and I've been to the one in Concord and probably several around the states...lol“

“5 stars far falafel. 3 Stars for average fries.

I know a restaurant can be financially tough, but just to note... For $25 for two falafel pitas and fries, I will avoid food while out. It's not this place. It's everywhere. Takes some time for the economy and our minds to rebalance.“

“Located in the heart of Tyro, NC.

Their Greek Salad with grilled chicken and their Chicken Caesar Salad are great. The chicken is marinated, seasoned, and grilled, making it savory and juicy.

Their traditional bone-in Buffalo Wings are excellent. The largest wings I've had so far.

Their Strombolis and Calzones are great. Stuffed with your choice of options and baked golden brown. And a large is large. I can eat two to three meals from each.

Update 23Jun2024: If I get a stromboli from here, it is usually the Steak Special Stromboli. But today, I tried the New York Stromboli with ham, pepperoni, cheese, and other stuff with oregano and other spices on the crust. I can mumble, "WOW!" and "YUM!" But I can't say anymore because my mouth is full.“

“Wings are very well made, the medium tastes like a mild for anyone looking for spice. The mozzarella sticks were the star of the show and tasted amazing. You should probably skip the pizzas, my wife said the taco one was good but the cheese was pretty awful and the rule is always judge on the standard not the toppings.“

“I was shocked when I was able to place my order and receive within 30 minutes on a crowded day. That's what stop me from going before because I didn't want to get stuck waiting while on break. I was definitely wrong and the staff was welcoming even on my way out the door“

“We tried the scallops and the crab dip they where amazing , Peel and eat shrimp where also yummy!. Staff was great too. We Highly recommend !!“

“Enjoying a cozy, comfy, relaxed, delicious dinner date with my hubby at Red Lobster tonight! 🦞❤️✨ We absolutely devoured the Seafood Boil with Cajun Butter, stuffed mushrooms, popcorn shrimp, and of course those warm, melt-in-your-mouth Cheddar Bay Biscuits! 😍🔥 I beat the dinner crowd and arrived at the perfect time-great atmosphere, amazing service, and food that truly hit the spot. A special thank you to Julius Reese, Manager, and my good friend Kim Reese for the invitation. Your hospitality made the evening even sweeter. 💙💛 If you’re looking for a place to unwind, laugh, reconnect, and enjoy a plate full of happiness… Red Lobster is calling your name! Treat yourself -you deserve it. 🦀🍤✨ #DinnerDate #RedLobster #SeafoodLovers #DateNightDoneRight #ValerieBentonSmith #QueenOfAmericanLifestyle #MTHS 💙💛 #CHS #CozyEvening #DeliciousMoments @Valerie_Benton_Smith“

“This establishment recently went under new management and it is very good. The staff know us and they are always friendly. Give them another try. Their wings are so good!“

“Parking: Parking lot is small and hard to get in and out of. Has a two-way direction but only one lane.

Kid-friendliness: Yes, but keep in mind small and close quarters!!!!

Wheelchair accessibility: Looks like it might be fairly easy to maneuver in a wheel chair.“

“the first time the team had played a match was against xo“

“1st time eating here and the food was great. Clean restaurant wonderful atmosphere and the staff was kind friendly and welcoming. If I'm in the area again I will definitely stop by again. Highly recommended“

“#62 sandwich ;steak&cheese with teriyaki sauce is addictive with pasta salad on the side in an Italian dressing is my meal of choice. Great atmosphere & the best homemade ice cream connected to it. The lemon cheesecake ice cream makes anyone cheat on their diet. Treat yourself & visit these eateries.“

“Super big shout out to our server Gabe. They were so kind with our autistic neice and the service was outstanding! we will be back!“

“Food was good. Way better than the chicken wings we got a Buffalo Wild Wings a couple weeks ago. Our server was friendly, but slow. Many times I seen the workers standing around chatting while we were waiting on them to help our table. The place didn’t look too bad, but it wasn’t very clean.“

“Great food. I always get their chicken parmesan. Soup and cedar salad. Take the chicken home for a second meal. Loaded potato soup is delicious. Staff is friendly and attentive. Even the manager brought us our food and got me another beer. Don't come here often but when I do it's always excellent.“

“Never had a bad meal at the Waffle house“
