A honest & lengthy-detailed account of a recent local gem I discovered š ā„ļø :
***If youāre able to access my review-history (truly unsure), you will see that I RARELY leave reviews good, or bad***ā
however, this small local business deserves their flowers š¹ š š¹
Iāll start by saying, we eat out a TON; honestly an embarrassing amount due to my work schedule.
The first time we ate @ Cinder Bistro, I was so impressed that I immediately began telling friend & family of how amazing their food, service & homey, cozy environment was.
I have became so āburnt outā on eating out.
I actually began to despise my job, just because I blamed it for having to pay for & eat āwilkes county foodā on almost a daily basis. Weāve been ālong term regularsā at darn-near every restaurant in town at some point, or another, and they have all turned us off via cheaper-quality ingredients ā, careless management/serviceš āāļø, over-priced & under-portioned platesš¤, etc.
I guess thatās why it was ālove at first sightā with my Cinder Bistro experience.
From the moment you walk in, youāre greeted as family. When an employee (or owner) approaches you, they actually listen, and genuinely put forth effort to ensure you have a pleasant experience. The staff is attentive, personable, knowledgeable and more than capable of explaining their menu options.
When I recieved my first plate of genuine āCinder Bistro gold ā (smoked-pulled-chickenš) I initially felt the portions looked slightly-smaller than Iād like. But soon after digging in, I realized it was an optical illusion most likely due to the dinnerware/etc used because I rarely leave a restaraunt with a full bellyābut it was all I could do to clean my plate. And the food was FAR too good to waste š¤Ŗ
My next visit I tried the SMOKED BRISKET QUESADILLA and HOLY-š© that is a product of LOVEā¤ļø and pure culinary genius š§ !
After 2 DIFFERENT amazing dishes, I couldnāt contain myself; I had to try a 3rdā¦. The deep FRIED FISH š£ and it was probably the best piece of friend fish Iāve ever eaten⦠and I grew up with the old-southern style family that ate at fish camps every weekend my entire childhood š¤£
š° Plates will cost around $12-$17 per adult, with a reasonably priced kids menu.
šŗ GREAT SELECTION of local North Carolina craft craft beers, wide selection of bottles and mixed-drinks made to perfection š„
āļø We visited during the snow storm(s) & they broke their backs coming together, to give people a place to eat because most were closed. It was chaotic and understaffed, but the food was still amazing š¤©
Iāve spent far too long writing this review, but I want this community to SWARM this place & EMBRACE them as a staple-restaurant, the way they have embraced my family upon each of our visits. These folks are building a business through love, dedication and knowledge and deserve to thrive & survive.
THANK YOU š Cinder Bistro š„ ā
For being genuine folks that take pride in what they are doing and deserve my hard earned money. Thereās no worse feeling than spending $50-$100 on a family meal, but leaving hungry/angry/disappointed ⦠a feeling I had became far too familiar with in this town, until I discovered YOU ALL!!!! š«”

Always great food with the brisket and the wings being my favorite at the moment. People are nice and Lyn was great on our last visit. There are a number of items that I want to try that look delicious, but I always seem to order the above mentioned items because they are so good. Local beer selection is good, although they seem to be out of things pretty regularly. Other than that minor item, it's one of our favorite local places.

Cinder Bistro was a fantastic experience! The food was absolutely superb. The Triple Dipper Appetizer was an amazing start, and the collard dip was fabulous, with perfectly seasoned tortilla chips. The Cattlemanās Wedge was unforgettable, with the brisket adding the perfect touch to the classic wedge. Brisket and pulled pork would satisfy any craving for smoked perfection. The hush puppies were so delicious, and I even used the leftover beer cheese from the Triple Dipper to dip them, which was a chefās kiss! I finished off this memorable meal with one of the best banana pudding Iāve ever had. Iām not sure what kind of wafers they use, but theyāre so much better than traditional. Our server, Jeff, provided the best service weāve had in a restaurant since I canāt remember when. His suggestions and hospitality made our experience at Cinder Bistro exceptional. This establishment has definitely gained repeat customers.

Food was great , great atmosphere , friendly staff!!
Great BBQ, burgers, and sides. For a group of pretty discerning, self described āfoodiesā from the south, we were all impressed. Service and atmosphere were great as well and the local beer and cider were delicious!
