We love having 2520 as our local Tavern. It has great 'Tavern Food' and entrees. Service is always friendly and attentive. Sea Bass is the Star of the menu for me.

Amazing atmosphere, this was my first time going. They were out of prime rib, but the ribeye steak was phenomenal! I'll be going back, for sure.

Anticipating a visit to Old Nick’s afterward, our group of four sought a dinner option in the Clemmons/Lewisville area. 2520 moved toward the front of the line by virtue of not being a chain though the intriguing menu certainly bolstered its case as well. On food alone, 2520 offers the makings of an excellent meal, but the overall experience is mixed.
Though 2520 is spacious, the restaurant was full when we arrived on a Saturday night. No worries: the wait was hardly unbearable. 2520 slots in somewhere between sit-down casual and fine dining, and the atmosphere – low-key classy – reflects that.
As a seafood fan, I was pleased to see how many fish and seafood options 2520 had available. The appetizers alone boast calamari, muscles, Thai shrimp, and lobster nachos, and the entrees throw several fish dishes into the mix. For those less aquatically inclined, there are steaks, sandwiches, pastas, risottos, burgers, and salads. The menu is appealingly well-rounded though, oddly enough, cranberries feature in an inordinate number of dishes.
Our group started with a fried calamari, my wife opted for the peppery goat burger, and I tried the stuffed flounder. The calamari came not with the classic marinara but rather with roasted red pepper, cranberries (removable upon request), candied pecans, parmesan, and a citrus herb vinaigrette. This version was lighter than others yet still flavorful, and the calamari were cooked well. The flounder was preceded by a generously sized salad (I opted for Caesar) and was very good. It came with a rich scampi cream sauce, to which tomatoes added a bright and tangy note. Asparagus proved to be a welcome complement. The burger, though messy, featured a very tasty pepper jelly.
That said, 2520’s pricing and service are both up-and-down. The appetizer ($12) and the burger ($12.50 with a side included) were definitely reasonable though at close to $30, the stuffed flounder was a bit of a reach. Our server was polite, but we ended up waiting for close to a half hour just to get our checks. From what I’ve gathered, “slow” is the default speed rather than the product of heavy volume.
Were it not for these issues, I would gladly return to 2520. The food was good, and the menu holds plenty of promise. However, if I do come back, it would have to be on a day when I have time to spare.

Just another average restaurant trying to be fancy, portions were small, drunks were overpriced, and service was below par.

Took the family to dinner. 2520 is a "go-to" place for us. We were seated very quickly. I had the ribeye with mashed potatoes. Steak was cooked perfectly, and mashed potatoes were nice and hot. My son had the steak and shrimp with corn. The steak was little small but cooked very well and the shrimp was really good. My daughter had the grilled chicken Cesear salad. The chicken was cooked and seasoned well and was plentiful for a salad. My wife had the chicken risotto. The feta was overbearing, and the chicken was not lean. She said the risotto was very light in flavor. The chicken risotto was underwhelming, but the overall experience was great (as usual). Service was fantastic.

This is hands down the best place for a ceasar salad. There something about the crisp, fresh romaine lettuce coated in a creamy, tangy dressing that balanced everything perfectly. Topped with crunchy croutons and shaved Parmesan, each bite was a blend of textures and tastes. It was refreshing yet satisfying and a simple dish done exceptionally well. I haven’t stopped thinking about it ever since I tried it. I had the Greek pasta and the tomato’s and feta cheese would just melt in your mouth and the portion size was amazing and so filling. 10/10 Food. I will be coming back for that salad

Had not been here in a while and decided to give it a second chance. Smallest Martini glasses I've ever seen in my life. Drinks were not good. Also, both entrees were covered in cheese. If you're a person that enjoys cooking you won't enjoy the food here because it doesn't really have any flavor other than cheese. Service was slow but they had several large parties. So to be expected. I will just stick to going to town.
