Nice touch with the malt vinegar on the tables for fries. If you are passing through it is a must-try and you may become a regular as we have.”

“We visited Wilson recently for a wedding and ate at La Rancherita three times that week! Absolutely fantastic food and service.”

“I went to Something Different with 2 friends today, my first time coming here. If I could give this place 10 stars, I would. If you like a restaurant with loud, blaring music and too much noise and crowded with loud people, this is not the place for you. The food was outstanding. The pricing is on par with other places, unless you are wanting to pay McDonald’s prices. The tables had white table cloths, the people were so nice, and it was QUIET!!!! The music was soft, not loud, etc. I had the chicken salad sandwich, and it was perfect. Needless to say, I will definitely be back!!”

“The people (employees) were pleasant, patient with my first time there, and just overall happy to be there. The portions were on point, especially protein (double meat is really double meat), and the toppings were fresh and high quality. The price while similar to other establishments felt like a deal with said portions.”

“Great visit!!! Kathrine was great. Wonderful service.”

“Excelente ambiente buena comida y buen servicio”

“They are only offering drive they pick up by mobile order but don’t advertise this on their website. I ordered a California roll and tuna roll and would not get either from here again.”

“All Waffle House locations are down to earth, people-friendly.”

“We have to give credit where credit is due! I left a very bad review for the location on Ward Blvd yesterday. That was after numerous bad visits and yesterday’s disrespect won’t allow me to return there! However, this location on Tarboro Street has always been top-notch. Just today we received our food Fast, Hot, and the cashier was extremely nice. Thank you, Tarboro Street!! We will continue to return to this location!!”

“All I read is bad reviews here but you do not see none of the good reviews. The workers do the best they can. There are so many customers that come with an attitude and they wonder why the workers get upset. There is this one girl who is GREAT!!! She has daily customers foods memorized. She always has a great attitude. She is always patient and multi-tasks great! This is the best Mcdonald's in Wilson”

“I love Parker’s but I have one suggestion, when you order take out, they put the slaw, potatoes and stew in the plate loose, and it runs together…and the slaw is warm, Greenville Parker’s put the sides in individual containers to keep it from running together..”

“We are pretty much weekly customers. Food is fantastic no matter what is ordered. Taco Tuesday is outstanding. Finally, someone knows how to cook sea scallops. Angie has made this a must stop for all the foodies in the area. Definite 5 of 5 for me.”

“The lady at register was not a people person an seem to have a attitude because I asked her a question. She was not very friendly at all. I still told her thank u an was just asking question to know something. She still had attitude. she doesn't need be at a counter. The young man who wiped my table off was extremely nice an asked if I needed anything an told me thank you have a nice lunch. He should be at the counter. My 14 old grandson was with me when we sat down he said Nana she has bad attitude about me asking question. The hamburger bun on top was hot but the bottom part was cold. It had not been warmed at all.The fries were great. Cheese burger was good except the cold bun at the bottom . But I wasn't bout go back an tell her with her attitude. I had heard so much how good Culver's was from my son an His family who go some. I am Very dissapointed with the service today an part of food. Hopefully they improve service at counter. I don't usually say lot about service are food unless it isn't good . I may Try it again an see if next time is better. Maybe lady had bad hair day lol .”

“One of the reasons I miss wilson is Italian Pizza and Subs. Their Stromboli was formative to my youth and helped me become the person I am today. They have been there for me through troubled times and I have a great respect for the folks who work there. When I was a child, it was always a treat to be able to get a family sized Stromboli from here and watch a movie we could pick up from the blockbuster over by Vinson Bynum. It's a living memory to me now. I love not only the food, but what thus restaurant represents to me.”

“Update: i made it back to the area and had to stop. Just as delicious as before and the same friendly service. I love their lemonade and sweet tea. I made an Arnold Palmer. Previous: It is truly a gem in Wilson. Buffet only. Smallish in size but definitely enough choices and tastiest to keep you coming back. On the day I visited this is what I had. The vegetables were country seasoned. Green beans, potatoes, butterbeans, cabbage, and yams were tender but not mushy. The cream potatoes were smooth and not runny. It held the gravy from the hamburger steak. The mac and cheese was great with more cheese baked on top. The rice was xooked perfectly. The slaw was simple but very good. I would.want that slaw to go for some bbq sandwiches. They had pork chops, hamburger steaks so tender, chicken pastry,and different kinds of chicken (bbq, fried, baked). All were tender and and juicy. I think they had fish too but I was unsure. Desserts included warm banana pudding and peach cobbler, fresh cookies, and an oreo and ice cream dish. They only have tea or lemonade to drink and your drink is included in the price. Service was great. Everyone smiled and greeted you. The restaurant has that southern small town feel.”

“There is no way for me to describe the food thar I ate last night other than it was just HEAVENLY!! I wanted to shout all over that restaurant. The Lord has blessed those folks in that restaurant.”

“Just had three steak tacos from the truck and they were really good. Would definitely do this again!”

“There were a couple people being quite rude to a worker named jeff and i really didnt appreciate that jeff is a very nice guy who is trying his best let him learn and do his job as a server be considerate of other people trying”

“We went early in the morning and they were already out of iced coffee, but the gentleman who takes care of the specialty drink area noticed and got me fixed up right away.”

“Abby was the sweetest most diligent employee at the store! I am so pleased to see someone with such a good attitude because cashiers nowadays are not what they’re supposed to be. She made my day!”
