“Never have I ever had anything but absolute delicious food (and service) here… and again today. My friend suggested 1/2 order of the Spinach Artichoke Dip (a plenty!) and Scallops appetizer (big, cooked perfectly and ab FAB!) and we added shaved ribeye egg rolls too. Perfect trio for sharing and leftovers too (except the scallops). Those who already enjoy Mannings know what I’m talking about but if you’ve never been, put on your to do list! Wish I could share pics but that button doesn’t work.”

Sak's Deli 876 Gulley Dr, Clayton Sandwich Shop • $

Matt and his team provided turkey & provolone pinwheels, chocolate-covered strawberries, and cream puffs — everything was delicious and such a hit with our guests! As always, Matt handled the order professionally and on time, making the whole process easy and stress-free. I highly recommend Saks Deli not only for catering special occasions but also anytime you’re looking for a great meal in Clayton off Hwy 70.”

3.9 Good292 Reviews

“One piece of advice, don't get delivery. Pick up only and show up 5 minutes before your projected "order ready" time.
There are dishes that they do up right and then some that could use some R&D.
1. Sesame Chicken = great!
2. Egg Foo Yung = great!
3. Sweet & Sour chicken = as expected
4. Moo shu pork or chicken = the moo shu is good, but the pancakes are shit! I use tortillas from LA Bonita
5. Beef with garlic sauce = awesome!
6. Fried rice = don't waste your money
7. Dragon & Phoenix = good
8. Shrimp with cashew = great!
9. Wonton soup = don't even
10. Hot & sour soup = good
11. Shrimp & scallop in pepper sauce = very few scallops, and it would be sooooooo much better with sautéed shrimp. The breaded and fried shrimp in the dish are just mushy and gross.

Lastly...could we get an option to NOT put a bazillion packets of sauce in the bag?!?!”

Romeo's Pizza 1130 W Main St, Clayton Pizza • $$

“Took them up on their generous offer of a free pizza and we love it! I added a house salad to the order and it was packed with fresh vegetables and the tomatoes tasted homegrown akin to an heirloom. Delicious. My kids are usually super picky eaters. Even when it comes to pizza and they powered the pizza asking for more. We will definitely be back for more. Friendly customer service and super welcoming. Thank you for the pizza. Additionally, the sauce is semi sweet. But they do use California sweet tomatoes… coming from being a native of California (I grew up there), I can say that I truly appreciate a good tomato when I find one. I think we have all gotten so used to under ripe tomatoes used on pizzas these days that some cannot appreciate when a ripe and juicy sweet tomato is used. I’d consider Romeo’s to be extremely authentic when it comes to the sauce used. Quality at its finest truly.”

Hwy 55 of Clayton, NC 2451 NC-42, Clayton Fast Food • $

“My first visit to the Clayton location was a great experience! We were greeted at the door and everyone we came in contact was very pleasant and smiling. Our waitress Piper was kind and came to the table with a smile and recommendation which I gladly accepted. The food came out on a robot which I think small kids would love. The food was hot, correct and good. The dining area was nice and clean. Overall a cute little joint.”

Taco Bell 25 S Merchant Ave, Clayton Fast Food • $

“5+ employees behind the counter and it took 25 minutes to get my order. I ordered 2 Yellow Bird fries and a chalupa supreme and a beverage. The people who came in 5 minutes later me got their food 5 minutes before me. When I asked what was taking so long they just mumbled something about doing their best. If you’re in a hurry I wouldn’t bother going here.”

McDonald's 11351 US-70 BUS, Clayton Fast Food • $

“The Huebner Family runs a good McDonald's and I can appreciate that. Some of the workers could be a bit more courteous and personable and I do feel quality customer service is a very important factor that many McDonald's is losing.

With that said, the food is always consistent and our order is almost never wrong. The drive through runs quickly compared to many other stores.”

“Not much in the way of privacy here, because the tables are pretty much thrown together in the middle of the room but with that being said, the food is pretty tasty and plentiful. The prices do reflect that though.”
