Something Different Cafe & Catering

The service was friendly and prompt but not hovering. Amanda was our server and she was excellent. The owner checked on our table as she did every table. The food for the most part was good. The Brussel sprouts were cooked in a tangy sauce and the black eyed peas were very good. The salmon was a tad bland but everyone at my table liked their honey Dijon chicken. And my family enjoyed the chocolate Hershey cake.

Whoever drives for this place in a white Ford minivan has got to be on drugs or drinking because it come off the exit onto 95 without even looking over and near about sideswiped the vehicle beside me and that vehicle almost sideswiped me. I followed the van down highway 40 and he is all over the road. This guy has got to be own something.

Stopped in for lunch today. We were driving down 95 and went out of our way to find this place, and it was well worth it. Not a huge menu, but it did have many interesting things. My wife enjoyed her Reuben and I my steak & cheese sandwich. Deana was our server and she was friendly, but gave me chips instead of the fruit I ordered. She immediately apologized and brought the fruit. Prices were not bad, and it's worth the drive for a good meal.

Unfortunately not as good as when it was under previous ownership. I cannot recommend.

This is at the Asheboro location. I had a very hard time navigating through the restaurant in my wheelchair, just to use the bathroom. Then we sat outside, in March, it was chilly, the prices were high for the quality, and portions, I had the chicken cordon blue, my chicken dry, broccoli way over cooked and the sauce, just gross. Also ordered kabob, not a kabob.. Meat on a stick, no veggies, that's not a kabob, and since when is Spanikopi two pitas with spinach and onions, not even pressed together just one on top of the other, and cut into 4 pieces...extremely displeased, and won't be returning. and prices were way to much for it all.. Please do better about being wheel chair accessible for future clients.
