“The best breakfast sandwiches I’ve ever had!! In the last week I’ve stopped 3x, top tier from beginning to end!! Wonderful group of folks running it, polite and so on top of it!!”

“Food and service is always great! I love that they new features every now and then and look forward to trying them on my next visit!”

“This place has got it all. The wife and I love it. I could sit here for hours. Sam, the owner is great company, the cigar selection is awesome and the coffee and drinks are great too. 10/10 recommend.”

“I love Frankos. Frankos and Ruth Chris are my favorite and I have tried a ton of steak places. At one point me and my friend would go several times a month. Now a few times a month. So good. Highly recommend the ribeye, garlic potatoes, and Brussel sprouts. I’ve never had the pasta.”

“The shrimp taco from this food truck was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned, with juicy shrimp and a great balance of toppings. Every bite had a nice crunch and a little kick.”

“Good place to listen to a band, wish they had more seating. Bands are usually good. I just don't understand how people say the Pizza is great, had it twice and never again. Afraid to try anything else on the menu.”

“Absolutely amazing food I’ve been here multiple times and each time. The service, the food were Great! I highly recommen!”

“Amazing atmosphere! Will be here again.”

“love there pizza and you cant get unlimited toppings”

“I’ve lived in Wichita, Durham, and Franklinton. I've gone to a lot of Mexican food places and this food truck is hands down my favorite place! Their tortillas are homemade, the ladies working are so incredibly nice & polite, the food is ready fast, and most importantly it is DELICIOUS! I ordered tacos and sopes and will continue to order this every time I ago. If you're contemplating this or Toros PLEASE COME HERE! Not only is it affordable but it is authentic and delicious. I highly recommend it! It's our new favorite Mexican food spot!”

“Great food with a smile! Yummy plate and the beans were off the chart. Thanks! We’ll be back.”

“Really good food, both if ordering to go or if you eat there. Indoor and outdoor options. Love they have outside connect four for the kiddos and great place to chill if enjoying a night out on Main St in Franklinton. Outdoor is covered which helps if weather isn't great. The staff is friendly and helpful”

“New to this area about 16 months now my wife found Sugar Grinders in Franklinton and surprised me with a German chocolate cake. Now let me tell how much I like German chocolate. I have always loved that flavor so much that my mom used to make me one as a kid every year for my birthday. Didn’t get one very often because they are so involved to make and not many people in my family like coconut I know go figure? Anyway can’t begin to tell you how great that cake is/was. When she wouldn’t tell me how much it cost I knew this was the real deal probably a dozen eggs involved and can’t imagine what else. When half the cake was gone she put it in the freezer to keep me away from it. On Thanksgiving she pulled it out to go with the other deserts and as I zeroed in on it I could tell it had not lost any of the delicious taste it had before it was frozen. To end this long post let me just say thank you to the Sugar Grinders bakers for letting me enjoy the best German chocolate cake I have ever had can’t wait to go there myself and sample all the other goodies I know they must have. A big “thank you” to the Sugar Grinders Creamery and Bakery!”

“Nick was an awesome service! Wings were crispy and fresh! We enjoyed our visit!”

“Food is Excellent; Staff is Friendly! Food is fresh, if there is an issue the waitress will help and get that taken care of for you! The managers greet you and so does the Owners!”

“Food is pricey but the right combos like chicken and broccoli with lo mein noodles, fried chicken wings or egg foo yung and chicken lo mein are good choices for authentic flavor. I get the same choices every time and I’m never disappointed. She’s nice busy a little testy when very busy 😒 but overall I keep going back.”

“Got the big, hot ham and cheese - adding thinly sliced onion, lettuce and mayo. Such an awesome flavor combination! It was delicious! Had not had one of those in years.

The lady working the drive through was warm, hospitable and super quick and efficient. I have always had great experiences at this Hardees.

Great crew!

Thank you!”

“Ordered takeout from a wonderful menu, easy system, ready early and each of the five items were spectacular - and right spice level! Wake Forest”

“This was our 3rd time here for dinner. The first time , 2 years go was exceptional.the food, atmosphere, and service were amazing. Last year we went and there were flies swarming our table. We ordered the osso bucco which is typically veal shank. This came as 2 tiny little pork ankles not veal, and was disappointing in taste. This year, we decided to go at Christmas to see the decorations. We ordered the burrata, and they brought us the shrimp appetizer. We sent it back and the server came back with it & said that we ordered it. Which we did not, instead of a confrontation, we kept it. It was delicious, but not what we ordered. The primo dish , we ordered the ravioli to share, it was very good. For or entree, we ordered the veal chop. It was chewy as if undercooked, soggy, as if it layed in its breadcrumb coating too long. For a $47.00 vealchop, it was a complete disappointment in taste and texture .as we went there specifically for the veal chop. After 3xs, the meals got worse instead of better. Our waiter was excellent, it’s too bad., but the food has gone downhill. We are Italian and are always looking for a great Italian meal. This was not!”

“On 7/6/2024 Saturday at approximately 11:15 p.m. I took my guest to dinner at Carolina Ale House located at 11685 Northpark Drive, Wake Forest, North Carolina 27587. I went to the restroom and saw the restroom was filthy with water all over the floor and sinks, along with toilet tissue on the floor in the stalls. When I finished using the restroom I reported the filth issue and requested to speak to the manager. The manager was a female of dark color, standing about 5 ft. 5 in. tall, came while I sat with my guest. I told the manager the restroom was atrocious with water all over the floor, which splashed on the back of my leg walking to the stall, and that it was a lawsuit waiting to happen. (Slip and fall hazard) The manager responded saying " I went in the restroom, it was fine, and no water got on me", making the issue about herself instead of the public safety. I said "no establishment would ever consider those conditions acceptable, especially with that amount of water on the floor". The manager rolled her eyes and said "well it's fine, it's been cleaned up". My guest then went to use the restroom and returned asking the manager "how is it that you consider that restroom okay, especially when there is a lady in there using a squeegee for all of that water on the floor?". Displaying annoyance, the manager stated "we don't have time to serve people and clean". My guest and I then asked the manager to understand that due to the stereotypes about African Americans in management, she should have a higher standard for herself and her establishment. But as an excuse to dismiss the complaint, the manager began yelling at my guest stating that the race card was being used, and then she walked away. I asked the manager her name and she said "you don't need to know my name". I stated to the female bartender that I'd stop coming to this restaurant because twice I had an issue with my salmon, a bug in my food, and that I'd only came tonight to get my guest something to eat, since it was the only place open after 11:00 p.m. close to where I lived. And as I spoke to the female bartender, I saw that manager at the far right of the bar angrily looking at my guest and I as she spoke to several of her coworkers. Then as me and my guest discussed our menu options, the male bartender came and told us the manager told him to refuse our meal and tell us to leave. After my guest and I left, I'd returned to retrieve my phone charger plugged up at the bar and to use the restroom, and saw that the restroom was still in the deplorable condition that I'd reported earlier. I decided to take pictures and a video recording of the restroom. Then shortly after, that female manager came into the restroom, two large security men with her, and told me that I had to leave. Good customer service practices generally encourage transparency and accountability, which includes providing the manager's name if asked. Refusing to give a name might reflect poorly on the establishment's commitment to customer service and might be seen as unprofessional. This manager's lack of concern, low standard and dismissive attitude toward myself, my guest, and public safety in the Carolina Ale House restaurant, completely shows that she is not management material. Unfortunately, it also reflects poorly on the establishments' commitment to customer service and taints the Moshakos family name, owner of the LM Restaurants, Inc. Furthermore, due to that ordeal, I will not recommend any person to Carolina Ale House.”

“Bodega is the best restaurant anywhere Chef Serge is a gift to our area. His food is equal to Michelin starred chefs food I have enjoyed Great casual and fun atmosphere. Great value Fun!!!”

“We went to Flying Biscuit for the first time today. The food was Great and our server (Janna) was Amazing! She was very attentive (but not overly..thank goodness)- we never had to ask for refills, or anything for that matter. We will definitely return.”

“We live right down the road and have never stopped here. We gave it a try and man- the hot honey pizza is soooooo good! Atmosphere was awesome as well. Pizza was ready at the time they said it would be. I got there early and they had a comfy little area with games!! I will be back.”

“wasn't expecting much, but the pasta is very good with very fresh toppings. the meatball marinara pocket was delicious. definitely recommend it if craving italian.”

“My wife and I drove 30 minutes this morning for a treat at Plant Cakes Bake Shop. The donuts and service were excellent as usual. When we returned to my truck, it wouldn't start so we called AAA for assistance. The tow came, identified the issue as a dead battery, but they didn't have jumper cables or a charge to get us started. I returned to the shop to ask if anyone had jumper cables, and the entire staff eagerly jumped into action. One staff member hurried to her vehicle for a charge and cables, and that got us back on the road. These are the types of high-initiative, family-owned, family-staffed businesses we should all go out of our way to support!”

“I’ve been going to WFCC for 10 years now. They are a favorite of mine. I’ve taken dates here, family and friends, anybody from out of town; it is a must-visit ! The baristas are very kind, friendly, and helpful. So much so, I’ve come to grow acquainted with some employees over the years. They do a loyalty program, and all they need is your # or email address. They offer many different flavors, so you’ll never grow tired of their options. Also the most affordable iced latte I can find, all while being the best! If you want a recommendation of different coffees to try, I do a white chocolate macadamia nut cold brew with a splash of almond milk. Or! A honey vanilla iced latte with oat milk. The options are endless (:”

“Highly recommend this ice cream shop! Friendly staff good ice cream and fantastic prices!”

“My son and daughter in law get my favorite cake for my birthday every year from here, not on their regular menu but they make it happen.❤️ Chocolate with coconut icing 🎂”

“The Best!! People and Coffee”

“First time dropping in, very nice atmosphere, enjoyed the outside area thought the craft beer selection was very good and had a nice live band outside!!”
