Family Restaurants near Arden, NC

“Great atmosphere. Polite, respectful employee at the register. 3 employees that I saw. I was acknowledged before I made it to the register. There was one man in front of me, but the employee took no time to get to me.They ended up with a small rush as I arrived, probably 10 or 12 orders, some people got their food to go, some stayed. Nobody seemed to wait more than about 5 minutes or so. I ordered 2 house special dogs, with slaw, and two onion rings and a sweet tea. I got my drink, sat down, scrolled through my phone for a minute and then my food arrived.The dogs were hot, and tasted great and fulfilling. The bun was a bit toasted and the slaw and chili were great.The onion rings were fresh, tasted great, not too done, not too light, they were scrumptious.Overall, for a TINY yet comfortable little "oddball" restaurant, it was really good, really enjoyable, and I will likely be back.????“

“Best QuesaBirria I have had in my life. A friend of my husband's recommended this new truck to us. Soo glad we stopped, it made my day. My husband got a burrito and I got the QuesaBirria. It was moist, FULL OF FLAVOR, perfect texturally and the broth..omg. Very drinkable, and I did drink it. And chewed it. I loved the fresh onion and cilantro in the broth also. The crew was super sweet especially with our terrible spanish. There is seating inside and outside, you choose. Plenty of drinks in the coolers inside also. 10/10 will go back.“

“We are traveling across NC and wanted some lunch. Randomly found this on Google and gave it a try... Holy moly!!!! Outstanding!!! Great, fresh, legit street tacos! The chorizo was just perfect. As was the pollo, asada and al pastor. The red side sauce was brilliant. If you are hungry stop here and get your taco fix. It will not disappoint and now I know why it has such high reviews. THANK YOU FOR THE GREAT FOOD! I live in Southern California, about 2 hours from Mexico... I'm pretty familiar with amazing Mexican food!And @Joe K who gave one star, complained about no bathroom, limited parking, no seating? ITS A TACO TRUCK... And one of the best I've ever eaten at. Unreal... LOL And the meat was not even close to double grilled... Go back to Taco Bell where they have all the seating you want, tons of parking, lots of toilets... and tacos made with 49% meat that taste like cardboard. Sounds like the place for you!“

“Although this restaurant is on a main road across from a dark lounge (Desoto's) and a muffler shop, the food and drinks we had were delicious! 50+ yo couple from Camden SC in town for the week. First time visit. Ordered cocktails: Smoke Show, special drink The Spice Is Right, Pinapple Mai Tai, and Feta Fries. Yummy! Delicious!!! The cashier let us taste the CBD beer, and it was good too! We sat outside behind the flower boxes, which were a really nice touch and helped set a better atmosphere due to the traffic. The employees were friendly and helpful. Can't wait to come back!!Parking: We parked right on the street right in front of the restaurant . Not sure about other parking.“

“-Cashier was kind and very patient, as she had to manually type in my card details for the payment, as my card’s magnetic strip wasn’t working.-Food was great, as always! Usually get the chili cheese dog and cheese fries.???-Seems like they stay busy, although I’ve never have to wait more than a few minutes, on my food.“

“While trying to find a spot for lunch on New Year's Eve, we decided to eat here since the menu had a lot of variety. Actually eating there was great - the restaurant was cozy and we sat by the wood burning fireplace. The proprietress was so friendly and had a fun conversation about her father and Greece. Food was generously portioned and very tasty. If I'm ever in the area again, I'll definitely come back.“

“During a recent visit to town for ArborFest, a friend and I decided to start our day with breakfast at Kosta's Kitchen. Our timing was impeccable, arriving just after the doors opened to a welcoming atmosphere that promised a good start to the day. The staff greeted us with warm smiles, quickly ushering us to our seats and ensuring our drink orders were promptly taken, setting a tone of attentive and friendly service throughout our visit.I opted for the Ribeye steak breakfast, accompanied by sunny side up eggs. The presentation was appetizing, but the taste truly stood out. The eggs were a perfect sunny side up. As for the steak, it was flavorful and cooked to perfection.Based on this experience, I wholeheartedly recommend Kosta's Kitchen to anyone looking for a satisfying breakfast in a pleasant and inviting setting. The friendly staff, comfortable atmosphere, and great food make it a standout choice for morning dining. Whether you're a local or in town for an event like ours, Kosta's Kitchen is a spot you will want to take advantage of for a great start to your day.“
