“Had early Saturday night dinner there. The atmosphere was quiet and hardly any patrons. Even so, they sat my Mom and I in a booth directly next to the stacked up children's high chairs nook. It was not crowded at all, so wondering why we got what is probably the worst table in the house. The food came very quickly and was undercooked. We are nice ladies, so we didn't complain. 3 stars at best.“
“While I didn't get a chance to take any pictures. I was here January 6th 2024.I ordered green fried tomatoes and I must say they were delicious. Fresh crispy even the breading was crispy not soggy and it actually full of flavor.I ordered something with chicken must have not been very eventful in my mouth for me not to remember. LOL I do remember those delicious green fried tomatoes thoughVery reasonable priced nice service cozy atmosphere. My friend that recommended we eat here and it was a nice choice.I would definitely recommend this little spot“
“Ate there a couple days ago and it was fantastic! The food was made to perfection. Everything looked appetizing. It wasn’t just thrown on the plate. You could really tell that the cook takes pride in the food he puts out. The wait staff was delightful and the place was clean as a whistle. Not to mention the prices! Very affordable. I have to say what I experienced the other day was a far cry from the last time I ate there a couple months ago. It’s like a totally different place. I work out of town a lot but when I’m home this will be my regular spot from now on. Good job Sawmills Cafe. You’ve earned a loyal customer.“
“This was the first time going here, we went for the food and entertainment, and we were not disappointed at all... I meet the owner JP, because of my sis, Christy Reid.... he was very nice and respectful, and the service was great, I would definitely recommend this place to anyone.....“
“We go here weekly. It's always a pleasure. The salads are the best!! They've got daily specials. If you love extra cheese, then you'll love their pizzas. We call ahead & they know who we are when we come!!! Love the rewards cards, too! Order 10 sub or pizza combos & get 1 free. It adds up. Especially when they've got the sub combo special on Wednesday and Thursday is the 2 topping pizza combo. ? ? ? The only thing I'd change is that they'd be open past 8pm, at least 9!!“
“My friends, 3 of them, came in from out of state to celebrate my business opening. There were 5 of us in total that went to have lunch at the brewery. It was a beautiful day out, so we opted to sit out on the patio. We made a great choice because it was perfect out there. It was made even better by the salads and burgers we all ordered. The burgers were cooked to perfection and the salads were huge! I ordered a cider and my other friend ordered an old fashioned, along with out sweet tea's with lemon of course. The service was great, the food was great. I was truly proud to bring in people who aren't from this area, and have such a great experience at GFB. That's their first impression of Granite Falls, NC and GFB did not disappoint!! Thanks y'all, for helping me entertain my friends and giving us a place to kick back, talk about old, memories, make some new ones, and catch up on our live in a fun, peaceful, unhurried, special environment. We'll definitely be back! 100 Stars!!“
“My husband and I ate here and the food was very good and the server was extremely friendly and professional. She filled our glasses three times. Very attentive and very friendly. Great place to eat in Lenoir NC! They have salads and have burgers/sandwiches (pub food). You have to go here!!“
“I like my wings cooked a certain way they took care of it. Exactly the way I wanted it!Dietary restrictions: They accommodated my nut allergy issue for my salad! Also provide me the best wings ever as I had ordered! They also told me my wings to be a certain way and I accepted that, but then they told me they did them a different way and they were completely amazing!!“
“I'm with a lot of the other reviews. Over priced much....... got the Gumbo. If you're going to serve someone Half of the container maybe put it in a smaller container so the customer doesn't feel jipped. The Gumbo was very flavorful with the right amount of spice. But 1 small scoop of rice..... rice is very inexpensive and they put it in a huge container to make it seem even smaller. $17 for a lunch. Nope“
“I'm being honest here...several reasons this place gets 5 stars. For one, the food is fresh and made to order. You can tell! The servings are nice and worth the price. You don't have to break the bank here. I will for SURE be back!! Look at this plating...“
“We went with a group of 17 people. They had 2 waitresses for our group and they were very attentive. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. My only complaint is that I thought dessert was a little expensive, but drinks were cheaper than some places so that made it okay in the long run. “
“You may wait longer in this drive through than anywhere else - because your food hasn't been sitting under warming lights. They don't cook much ahead, so your order is fresh. My favorite is their monster burger and onion rings with a peach shake. This is a local treasure.“
“It was our first visit to the angus steakhouse in hickory, nc. It was the best dine in experience we have EVER encountered. It felt like a true small town steakhouse. The staff were super friendly, they came around frequently talking to each table. You can tell they truly enjoy their job and the customers. The food was quick to come out and so fresh. I highly recommend, and we will return without question. The owner and staff really pour their heart into that restaurant!“
“Absolutely thebest breakfast in Caldwel County. I only wish they were open longer as I'd eat there just about every meal if so :)People are wonderful, it's aways busy and you never wait is the best part! Wonderful restraint and please never change!!!“
“The service is wonderful & everyone is so friendly. Most of the food is what you'd expect of a pub, some a little more creative, all absolutely delicious, & portions are very large. The mixed drinks are very well made. Everything is reasonably priced. The ambiance is cool both in & outside. The location is completely unexpected. I lived right up the street from this place for a good while without even knowing it, and the game nights are super fun so we will definitely be making lots of return trips!!“
“Enjoyed our lunch there so much. The servers were extremely nice.The food was delicious, and there were great choices for both vegans and non vegans alike. Best homemade potato salad I've had at a restaurant.Although we did not have beer this time, they had an amazing selection, including local Brews.It's a little dark when you first come in from the outside, but other than that, I have nothing negative to say at all. The“
“Thus place was so unique the kids and adults loved it! The waitress came back 4 times to check on us we alwayse had refills and the food came out fast and hot. For four of us to eat three of which were regular adult meals and one kids meal was 60.00 very reasonable for the quality of food and portions you get. If you get a chance to go get the potatoe salad it's homemade and delicious. Thank you for the wonderful experience.“
“One of my favorites in the Valdese area. Generous portions, uniquely delicious sides. Really love the steak soup (I think that's what it's called). shrimp and grits, Philly steak and cheese, lots of delicious choices of americana's best. Friendly service.4 starts on service cuz they can be a little slow and on atmosphere cuz it's a little noisy but I still love it!“
“This place is the best I've ever been food is amazing the prices match what you get!! The people are so nice and have this beautiful compassion for what they do. This is the best food I've ever eaten, you can feel the honesty in the room the moment you open the door that your about to be appreciated and fed well hats off to the server and the chef you are fantastic ?“
“If you need lots of choices for your picky eaters in the family, this is a good place to go. Menu is full of varieties to choose. It was not a four or five star on food taste, but you can't beat having the options to satisfy them all at one location. The servers are polite and make sure your glass stays full. You sit in an open dining room. The price is reasonable. The special cookies they sell at register are delicious and will be what makes me go back again.“
“You have a host there by the name of Patrick he is extremely rude and mouthy and very disrespectful he should be fired he works at the cracker barrel in hickory nc and if I was the manager there I would not tolerate it and fire him immediately“
“Love this Longhorn. They are very accurate in their wait times. The food always comes out hot and delicious. The service is amazing as most of the servers have worked there for a long time. Everyone is very kind and professional. The manager Katie goes above and beyond to making my child feel special. We go here at least two weekends out of the month and prefer this restaurant over any other steak house near by.“
“I haven't been to a captain d's in many years. I had an unpleasant experience at one and couldn't go back. I was so wonderfully surprised at t this place. The did was fresh tasting and hot. We had the senior plate, and that was enough for us and a good bargain. The crew was very nice and the dining room was clean and comfortable.“
“The hostesses were lacking. Came at lunch time on Thursday and there were two of them. It was difficult to get an answer out of them other than a 20-minute wait. We finally said okay and we waited. My questions were about outside or were there enough tables in the back that we would be seated in a timely manner. They could not comprehend our questions. They were very young.“
“The food was very good, not 20 bucks good. The salad bar was bare to begin with, got better after I was finished though. Service was great. Jace done a very good job keeping check on us. They were slow, but he seemed friendly enough. I didn't once run out of drink.“
“My partner and I were promptly seated in a spacious booth. The atmosphere pleasant to the senses, wasnt crowded or noisy, with a comfortable temperature. The cosmopolitan and IPA arrived quickly with a tall glass of iced water. The potato skins appetizer, which followed shortly thereafter, was average. Our meals..my meal consisted of a crunchy fresh wedge salad with a deliciously chunky blue cheese dressing and chunks of blue cheese, and a perfectly cooked baked potato. My partner had a chicken sandwich with broccoli, which didn't last long. He said the chicken was cooked perfectly tender and tasty with toppings he requested, the broccoli was steamed. Our waitress, was friendly and knowledgeable, but not bothersome. Excellent service.“
“Excellent spot in downtown Hickory. I really enjoy eating lunch here when I am in the Hickory area. Excellent salads and sandwiches. The beer selection is good too. I live in Charlotte. So, I pass on the beer, but it is great lunch spot with or without an adult beverage.“
“This is hands down my favorite restaurant in Hickory. Not only is the food delicious, but the owner has gone out of her way to offer an entire menu to people like myself who cannot have gluten. Going to a restaurant nowadays and looking to see if anything is gluten free is always a toss up. Charlie Granger's is the only place where I can come and feel like I can order as a normal person. Getting a burger and fries may not seem like a big deal, but for someone like me who usually can't do it, eating at Charlie Grangers's is a dream come true. All the food is delicious regardless if it's gluten free or not. My wife loves the shrimp burger, and my in laws love the hot dogs. So give this place a try. It's an absolute 10/10Dietary restrictions: Gluten free“
“My children and I ate here today. Upon coming in, in which I'm Very observing. The young lady whom was supposed to serve us loudly said that she didn't want us. Therefore, another lady chose to serve us, she told me upon check out that her daughter went to Carrowinds today. God Bless her and everything that she touches. We're all people made by Father God, we All bleed red and couldn't do Anything without Him, our Creator! God Bless her, and I was obedient to Him, and I tipped her 20 dollars!!!! She derived it....????“
“This place makes you feel like you’re eating at your Southern grandmother’s house. And they charge old school prices too. So reasonable! Chicken is perfectly crispy, juicy, and gently seasoned. Sides are simple, homey, and authentic. If you can’t go to your granny’s house for dinner, go here. You’ll be glad you did.“
“My wife and I stopped in here yesterday for an unplanned early lunch. We've been in here before a number of times and it was always good, but yesterday was fantastic. We both had the salt and pepper catfish and it was the best I've ever eaten anywhere. The staff are always extremely friendly and helpful and the atmosphere is great!“
“Food was amazing, the BLT, Chicken parm sandwich, and a grilled (pimento) cheese were all excellent. This restaurant has great service, great food, and a great location. The parking is parallel street parking but overall not hard to find. The crinkle fries were AMAZING, would 10/10 come back to this place, great job guys!Parking: Free parking on weekends“
“My family member invited me to join them for lunch at Backstreets. Despite growing up here, I never knew this restaurant existed until now! I was hesitant at first to try it out because they didn’t have many vegan options. Actually, the only Vegan item I really found was the Asian Kale Salad. Needless to say, I’m happy I did decide to go because that salad was fabulous! It was very large and the flavors in the salad played a tune on my taste buds! Bouncing back and forth between sweet, savory, crunchy, and a hint of spice from the sriracha on the sides… It was the perfect balance for a perfect salad! My husband got the chicken fajita wrap, and he really really enjoyed it. He said it was one of the best wraps he’s had in a long time. My son who is a picky eater REALLY liked his burger, but wasn’t a big fan of the Macaroni and cheese. My husband was though, so take his word for it tasting fresh and made from scratch! My family chimed in and said the grilled chicken is perfection, that’s why they enjoy it as the protein on their salads. We came around lunch time on a week day, and there WAS a wait, but we waited around 10 minutes before we were seated, so that’s not too bad. Once seated and we placed our orders, our food didn’t take very long at all to arrive at the table. The waitresses were very accommodating! If it came to a chain restaurant or Backstreets, I’d definitely choose this place any time. I hope to see that they add more vegetarian and vegan options to their menu soon! If so, I’d become a regular myself! Dishes are around $10-$15 per person depending on what you order. It isn’t exactly a one cash sign establishment, but in this case, it’s a good price to pay if you’re looking for a flavorful dish. On top of that, you’re supporting a small business with a ton of culinary talent! I’d hate for anyone to miss out on that!“
“Our cousin brought us here for lunch after a morning of shopping. There were 9 of us with 4 of those being kids. I wasn't sure how this would go. We were seated outside downstairs, and there were plenty of things to keep the kids occupied while waiting on the food. The best part was that the kids' food came out first!!! That is a huge thing for parents of young children. After they finished eating, they again played while the adults finished and could easily see the kids playing. Our server was fabulous as well as the food! As an out of towner, I would definitely recommend stopping by.“
“The food was still hot when we got back home in morganton. The flounder I got, the pieces were meatie and so good. I love their flounder. Salt and pepper catfish my husband got was good too. Looked so good when I opened the box I could not wait to get to eating! lol check them out!“
“I had always wanted to try out the WL so I asked a co-worker to meet me there. It was a very Comfortable & Enjoyable Environment and I look forward to going back when I need a little bit of calming down from the workday - I would be comfortable going alone and visiting with the nice people at the bar.“
“This was at the end of a dead end road, but had fantastic reviews. We decided to give it a try as we were passing through the area and we loved the atmosphere and the friendly staff. We will definitely be returning!!! Parking can be a bit tricky but well worth it!!!“
“Windy City Grill (aka Homers) is a cozy little restaurant that sits on highway 127 in the Viewmont neighborhood of Hickory, NC. This is a must go to place when you are in town. They offer a variety of options or you can go for breakfast and get a livermush, egg, and cheese ? or you can go for lunch and get one of their famous cheeseburgers. You can go through the drive thru or you can go inside and sit at a booth or sit at the counter and be waited on. Personally, I prefer to go inside and sit at the counter. It's a more personal experience. The employees here are top notch. They are super friendly and very polite. I guess you can say that this is a good ole hometown diner. Please, if you're in town visiting Hickory, stop by and grab a burger at Windy City Grill. You won't be disappointed. ?Parking: There's about 6-8 spots in the front, but there are a few more in the rear of the building.“
“I skipped coming home 321 for a few reasons. 1 being I had to stop by for some cheese bread with pepperoni! Amd Cherry Lemon Sundrop! A friend that moved up there took me here while I was up visiting and I had to have some more!!! Soooo cheeeesy! Love the friendly staff and patrons.. Also love the positive messages on the board as you go to the bathroom. Both sayings is EXACTLY the message I needed to read! Thanks yall!!!“
“I believe you can only get better with honest feedback. My wife and I celebrated her birthday there tonite. The waitress, Brittany couldn’t have done a better job!! We both had the trout with blue crab. The dish itself was delicious but it was BURIED in a creamy sauce. The sauce was good but it takes away from the trout & crab flavors. A lot less sauce would severely improve the dish. The spinach/goat cheese side salad was perfectly proportioned and awesome. We chose the calamari appetizer. Not the best choice. It was heavily breaded, greasy, and over cooked to the point of being inedible…tough, tough, tough! Wed night wine was 50% off…nice surprise! Dinner was good but not close to the caliber we had come to expect from this establishment. I hope this helps them improve…“
“I've been going to Golden Corral for many years now they also have an app where every time you eat there you get 20 points after 5 meals you get $10 offParking: It's got a big open parking lot also plenty of handicap parking spacesKid-friendliness: It's a kid friendly place where the kids themselves can go and serve themselvesWheelchair accessibility: Usually all golden corrals are welfare accessible at least all the ones I have been to“
“This is our favorite local burger place we always get the stretch burger done all the way and it is always to much food .. in a very good way. This place does get a little busy on the weekends so plan ahead and call in if you don't plan on sitting in a great part of our big small area keep doing great!“
“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Granny's Country Kitchen, and I must say it was an exceptional experience. The warm and welcoming atmosphere, coupled with the delicious homestyle dishes, left me thoroughly impressed. The staff's hospitality and attention to detail added to the overall charm. Granny's Country Kitchen truly offers a taste of Southern comfort, making it a must-visit spot. I wholeheartedly give it a 5-star rating and highly recommend it to anyone seeking a delightful culinary experience.“
“Clarence's Friendly Lunch is the place to go for good southern cooking. ?So many of our hometown restaurants are closing and it is a shame.Each day has a daily special, prepared with you in mind.They also take credit cards for your convenience.“
“Great place! We went for breakfast. Biscuits were a little dry and pancakes were a little tough, but everything else was outstanding. I particularly liked the hand made sausage patties and great flavor on the French toast. Outstanding service and great atmosphere. Highly recommend ?“
“This is the most amazing restaurant, the most friendly staff with excellent food options, everything we have tried so far has been outstanding- Evan and Will have both been our server on multiple occasions and are always very attentive and treat us like family. I cannot forget to mention Tara the bar manager who remembers our drinks each visit , and Lidia who takes care front of the house and Jamie is a fantastic manager. Me and my wife have both worked in restaurants for years, good staff is hard to find and they have it!!!! THIS PLACE IS FAMILY !!!“
“Fourk is a staple in our restaurant rotation in Hickory. However, it had been quite a while since we visited. The service was a little slow to start. We were given water and menus, and then we waited for 15-20 minutes before our appetizer order was taken. We ordered the Buffalo meatballs and the mussels. They arrived at our table quickly, and both were tasty. Our table ordered the Mahi, orzo chicken, and the seafood melange. All three dishes were really good. For dessert, we had the blackberry wine cake (a MUST for anyone visiting Fourk), and the cheesecake of the day. The blackberry wine cake was fantastic. The cheesecake was very good, too. We will visit Fourk again soon if for nothing other than that blackberry wine cake.“
“Open early, which is great for me (6am), and service is fast with a smile. Sweet tea is about perfect, and even though the food comes out really fast, it's really fresh and hot. This omelet and hashbrowns could feed 2 people, half came home with me and was just as good a couple hours later.“
“I was lucky to get a tee time on 04/13/2023 after a mess up at GolfNow and found a tee time at Player's Ridge. i really enjoyed the layout. the course is set up well and very enjoyable. Some of the greens did not fair to well after the winter. I hope they come back soon. I will be back to play it later this summer once the grass comes in. The staff was very pleasant and quite friendly. I wish I lived closer to play it more often. it has a potential for a great course if a little more money was invested in the course it would be outstanding.“
“Went as a company dinner. Food was a little lacking on taste and flavor but the staff and atmosphere were excellent, if you like this sort of venue. My 4 year old had a great time and absolutely loved the music and dancing.Parking: Plenty of parking space available.Kid-friendliness: Very kid and family friendly.“
