“Ordered online for a pick up order. Got home and found the chicken sandwiches were buffalo not plain as ordered. No time to make trip back for a new order as manager offered us. Jackie went above and beyond to make it right. Turned a negative into a positive. Thank you jackie.“

“Excellent food and great atmosphere! 😋“

“Great customer service, yummy food! Can't wait to eat here again. :)“

“I loveee this location!!

The salad bar is always so fresh and the food always comes out fresh and FAST! I absolutely love my girl Erin, she always takes care of me, my sister and mom! She keeps the vibes high and it’s always so nice to be taken care of by her!“

“Very nice clean environment for a family. Our family enjoys lunch with free pool. We travel an hour once a week for lunch. We forgot our debit card and the staff and Mgr. were so helpful in helping us get it back. You must try the brisket tacos! Please, do yourself a favor go give it a try!“

“I’ve always had a rule: only trust a real “rib and barbecue” place to make great baby back ribs. But Buffalo Brothers of White Oak is the exception! They were meaty, sauced just right with an excellent proportion of spicy to sweet and were “fall off the bone tender.”
The service was excellent and there was a wonderful selection of different sports and HappyTV to watch and a music background that provided just the right vibe!“

“Went last night with some friends and had a great time. The bartender was excellent. Service was great. Food was great too. Will definitely be back but it is 30 mins away from me. Nice little arcade area in the back, a little something for everyone. Very reasonable prices on food.“

“Good food, drinks, bands, and staff“

“I love the food. My favorite is the grilled salmon salad. I also Love the 100 grade rating. I didn’t rate it 5 stars because the lighting is always so dim that it’s hard to read the menu. Also, the bathroom is extremely old so always looks dirty. I only saw one bathroom and that was for both men and women. That is unusual for a restaurant.“

“Service was great and the food was excellent .“

“We dined in. Outlet waitress was great but the food was horrible. My family and I came on 2/5/23.“

“Great food and service....they always answer their phone with a smile“

“I live in a town situated along US 70, waaay out on the other side of the country(Arizona). Out here for work, and setting foot in North Carolina for the first time ever. I noticed this place while passing by, saw how full the parking lot was, and decided to pop in for dinner. Had a bbq plate with pork ribs, a piece of fried chicken, collard greens, green beans, Cole slaw, hush puppies and a corn stick. For dessert I had the peach cobbler. Everything was amazing. Friendly service. Food was tasty with a “home cooked” quality about it. It’s one of those things that I just don’t experience at chain restaurants with all of the traveling I do. The bbq is eastern NC style which I’ve read uses vinegar and mustard as a base. Everything was tasty, and slightly different than what I’m used to. In a good way! I couldn’t think of a better way to bring a long travel day to a close, and if I’m ever out this way again, I’ll definitely come back!“

“They have pool tables that only cost a dollar to play They have four game machines that do give out money not like the other places, nice bar large area inside good for birthday partys meetings, etc staff is very friendly, Cindy, Sue or Susan, and the boss. They did have karaoke the night I came and wow they got some good singers.“

“Staff is very helpful and friendly . Wyatt , our waiter , was very courteous and attentive . Food was hot and delicious .“

“tailgaters meals are great“

“The location is terrific and so is everything else about this bar and restaurant at White Oak Crossing in Garner. Excellent service and food. Nice outside patio and good entertainment most evenings. Lots of laughs and good music.“

“HUGE SHOUT OUT TO ASHLEY! 🙌🏼 Her personality, professionalism and outstanding service made this one of THE BEST experiences I have ever had at ANY Red Robin (and most other restaurants of the same caliber). Our food came out fast, fresh and TASTY, so much so that we are already planning our next visit. GREAT JOB ASHLEY 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Thank you again!“

“My waiter was awesome 😎 Great customer service 🤎“

“Good people! Great food.“

“I recommend the waitress Monica Barrera at the IHOP in Panorama City Calif as she gives such great and wonderful service. She asks if everything is ok and always comes back to give refills. This is much appreciated. Best wishes from the original Johnny Blaze, and "may the Blaze be with you."“

“When we first got here after plugging it into Google maps we first thought oh it's at a gas station it's not going to be that great but actually it was very clean (they have a 100 health rating posted on the wall and it really didn't surprise me) the staff was extremely helpful and nice and the food was great.

Vegetarian options: Since you can make your own sandwich and pick the ingredients you can omit any meat from your sandwich.

Wheelchair accessibility: There's a ramp to get in“

“The steaks are really amazing!!! yummy 🤤🤤“

“I’m writing this review to mainly shout out our waiter that we had at this location. He was upfront about being new and he was personable and sweet. Unfortunately another unprofessional lady who worked there came over and literally interrupted us ordering, and pulled him away in the middle of him taking our order, to help someone at the register. He tried to say ok and go back to our order but she persisted and practically forced him to go help the other person. We were shocked to say the least, that he was pulled away in the middle of us ordering. He came back as soon as he could and apologized and my husband asked if that was his manager and he said no. So my husband let him know that she was wrong to do that and if it came down to getting the manager involved that the manager would be on his side but to not let her walk all over him like that because she was only making him look bad, and also if this is his training, he needs to know that that’s not ok to do.. he took the friendly advice like a champ and said that it made him uncomfortable too that she did that. The young man’s name was Abdullah I believe and I hope I spelled it right.. he also took down our order correctly, kept our coffee coming fresh and hot (which made our experience much better lol) and even made sure that we had everything we needed and wanted. So thank you to that young man, he did a great job and I hope he continues to care about his job and have pride in himself! I hope that rude older lady eventually learns better customer service.
As for the food, it was ok, the hashbrowns were a pretty cold and soggy not crispy at all, the mushrooms were cold and tasted straight from a can to the plate and we didn’t get cheese or toast with our all star.. all things that were no fault of Abdullah’s and he communicated that to the kitchen staff and they did nothing to rectify it so again, no fault of our server. I don’t usually leave reviews but felt this young man’s should be commended and the other lady called out.“
