Spring House Restaurant, Kitchen & Bar

We went to Spring House for our anniversary; it was our first time there and everything was great. The venue is just lovely, the music perfect for dining, and, of course, the food was delicious. We ordered too much, but enjoyed it all: the bread service, gazpacho, seasonal tomato salad, quesadillas, and filet mignon. Our server made us feel at home as soon as we arrived. We would definitely go again, perhaps in the cooler weather when we could eat on the beautiful patio.

I was at this restaurant for a pharmaceutical dinner so my review is based on that. I love the location and ambience, and the food was good. Though the menu I had was limited, I wish their protein options included meat and not just fish and chicken.

Granted, I did not get the chance to look at the full menu, but most places for pharmaceutical dinners had beef options.

I ordered the chicken and waffles and this was delicious. The lobster bisque was also excellent.

The food was incredible. Complements to the chef. Came for anniversary dinner. Staff was very attentive yet not bothersome. Cannot wait to come back.

Shelby was an outstanding server. Our party enjoyed our time celebrating a friend's birthday.

Amazing dinner. Perfectly cooked filet mignon and unbelievable service. We found this gem on a quick weekend trip. It's a short walk from the Embassy Suits hotel and did not disappoint. We will be going back!

So disappointing. Had tickets to a show and thought it would be nice to have a nice dinner prior. The reviews seemed decent and the restaurant looked lovely so took a chance. Once again we spent way more on food that I could have made better at home. To start - the restaurant, the gardens, etc. are all lovely. Perfect setting, more than adequate parking, etc. Nice interior - the room we were put in (four tables, windows on several sides) was nice but we all noticed the wallpaper peeling, chips in the paint, etc. Could be considered 'shabby chic' but later realized that it was demonstrative of their lack of attention to detail. The server was completely inadequate. First time there and one diner had questions about the history of the house.... minimal details provided at best. Was once a house on millionaire row... okay. And? Now a restaurant which also does catering for weddings and corporate events. Considering the focus is on history and ambiance you would think the servers could provide a basic history. Fine, we'll read the history on their webpage. At least she was knowledgeable about the food, right? Nope. Questions about the thickness of the lobster bisque were met with 'well, it's a bisque so it's going to be thicker.' Yes... we know that. But she assured us it was not a super thick soup. Wrong. Very thick - it left a indent in the 'soup' when you took a spoonful out, that's how thick it was. I had the 'famous onion soup' which was almost inedible. A thick pastry crust on top which made one wonder how to even eat it - which was either completely underdone or so soggy on the underside from drawing up the liquid that it was very off-putting. Both soups went uneaten and the only response from the server was if we would like them to go! How about asking why we didn't eat them? No matter, because the entrees came out about 2 minutes after the soup. Timing could definitely be better. Oh well. We had asked what kind of noodles were in the Jumbo Shrimp and Spicy Noodle dish.... deer in the headlights. No idea. We had to prompt her: are they thinner? Thicker? Finally she decided on 'they are like ramen noodles, I suppose.' Okay.... that sounds fine. Are they served hot or cold? Again she sputters. The answer: 'well, they aren't hot but I wouldn't say cold either' - so room temperature? Yes, she agrees: room temp. That sounds fine. Nope, they came out cold like from the fridge, which was specifically what we said we didn't like which is why we asked. Spicy peanut sauce was not spicy and it was served on a bed of salad in a bowl which was very difficult to eat. And biggest sin of most restaurants these days: all shrimp in the dishes were served with the tails on. Why?! Can't use the knife and fork to remove in a bowl and they were super messy to remove with ones hands. Want to be an upscale restaurant? Think about how the diners are supposed to eat the food! My plate was the Jumbo Shrimp and Scallops - I was really curious of the lemon dill foam - which I should have known better. No foam - it had completely broken and created a watery mess on the plate - and had no flavour at all. The tomato scallion rice was so dry it couldn't even keep its shape in the middle of the plate. We asked to see the dessert list thinking maybe we could finish the meal on an 'up' note but we all decided that we didn't have the appetite for any more. I know this is a well liked restaurant and maybe it was an off night - but for a Friday dinner an off night should still be relatively decent. Not that night! Thankfully there are a plethora of other places to try - but it certainly won't be their sister restaurant!

The service was good and the food was delicious! You can tell the chef enjoys what he does!

Wonderful anniversary dinner! The food was outstanding and the service was next level. Definitely a must in Winston.

We had the loveliest of times at Spring House. We booked the Sun Porch for a private event and it easily accommodated 18 people. The food was excellent. As small plates, the calamari, sushi tuna, and the three cheese mushroom and crepes were to die for. The pork chops are a personal favourite! The waiters and waitresses are overall really nice, although one of them rolled their eyes at me (slightly annoyed I guess). The ambiance is divine, high-end dining for sure.

We had a great meal and service. It does take time for food to come out but everything was delicious.

Our server Diana was wonderful! She was friendly and very accommodating and recommended items that turned out to be delicious! Will be going back when the new menu comes out to experience something different.

Had a great time there with the wife. The starters were okay, but not anything special. The main course was the salmon bowl. That was awesome. Might go back again

Very enjoyable meal overall. Braised pork ribs spring rolls appetizer was excellent. Two provide and much larger than typical spring rolls. A bit disappointed in lobster bisque soup. Large piece of lobster in soup, but very thin broth. More like melted butter. Entrees of jumbo shrimp with scallops and jumbo shrimp with pimento grits were prepared well and great flavor. Red velvet with chocolate cream frosting was split between two, could be done between three. Loved it. Jen provide stupendous service

The Tuna & Tator Tots small plate was (surprisingly) delicious! And Josh was wonderful sharing his wine expertise with us! Love Spring House!

Unfortunately we weren't very hungry so only ordered a Caesar salad and lobster bisque The bisque was delicious The salad was good but swimming in dressing We also ordered a very nice bread sampling Atmosphere very nice as was the service
