Restaurants in Forest

“Our son and his wife hired Sourdough Pizza to cater their wedding in 2019 in Harrisonburg and SP was kind enough to drive their pizza truck all the way there to set up and make AMAZING woodburned sourdough YUMMY individual pizzas for all our guests with salad on the side. Everyone was impressed and came back through the line for more...and the line moved quickly too!! I would highly recommend their catering services!!”

“Great meal and excellent service. We’ve been there 3 times so far (of course there will be more visits) and haven’t had a bad meal.”

“We had wonderful takeout food today! Chicken biryiani, Goat curry, Chicken pakodas. All fantastic, and it was great talking to the owner/chef. You need to try this place!!!”

“Oh my gosh! I just ordered through UberEats and it is so good! These Salmon cakes are to die for! This macaroni cheese is *chefs kiss* DELICIOUS FOOD! Thank you for blessing my taste buds”

“Best gyros I've ever had!! The shawarma and the chicken are my favorite, if you ever are in Lynchburg or Madison Heights you have to try them out!!”

“Last night my wife and I were finally able to try Gunny’s out. We ordered the wings and meatloaf. My meatloaf was amazing and the wings were so good we ordered more to take home. The beer selection is top notch compared to other places around town. Staff was super friendly, and will be forever customers here. Thanks Gunny’s for an amazing first experience with you all.”

“Friendly staff, excellent food and drinks. Celebrated my grandson’s birthday here and the staff was so great to him.”

“So I wasnt Chinese food fan growing up. Fast forward i start to like it general tso chicken my go to. Lately we tried two places on vacation. Not good ,bland food. The food at the local Chinese restaurant is way better. We decided to give other Chinese restaurants in the area a try. With that being said i seen a fb post about east express told the wife let's give it a shot. The building is the nicest I've seen this spot compared to the previous restaurants. general tso chicken isn't on the menu 😒 we tried the food anyway sharing our different meals. Wow flavors will blow you a way. They don't miss has to be the best Chinese around. The best I've ever had for sure. I hope this place last. I can't even recommend a dish the wife or I couldn't pick a favorite. Its all so good.”

“AAW is one of our monthly go-to's. They always have some sort of entertainment and my husband loves their beer selection. Also, being dog friendly is a plus!”

“I have only had the sushi and it was freshly made and very good. My only recommendation would be to expand their beer offering to include draft craft beers brewed by area craft brewers.”

“Welp, looks like I found my pho place! I had gone to another one in Lynchburg a couple of months ago and was disappointed. NOT HERE!

I actually came here because the other, mediocre place is closed on Mondays. I'm glad I did.

As soon as I started walking from my car, I could smell that signature pho smell and I knew I was home.

It's cute in there, nothing fancy, but is clean and quiet with calming music, so I adored it. Especially since I felt like crap...it was super comforting to have some yummy soup there today.

Anyway, there were only two people there besides me, so I was able to sit right away. The server who approached me was quiet and sweet.

I got the #47 (spicy beef noodle soup) and omg THAT BROTH was so delicious!! I can never finish a bowl of pho, but I came mighty close with this one.

I can't wait to go again. Next time I won't wait til I'm sick to have some. 😂”

“Best Pho in town. Great egg rolls too. Love it!”

“A lovely welcoming spot, easy to feel right at home as soon as I went in. Friendly and attentive staff and a cosy atmosphere. TVs with sportsball games on to watch if you like, and great Autumn style decor when we were here. Heard about the V&T Ruben and was not disappointed, it was delicious. I would have loved dill pickle spears instead of burger-style pickles but they were still tasty and rounded out the ruben experience with the ridged chips. Delicious cakes in the case, tried the lemon bundt cake and loved it. Wish I were local as this would be a regular go-to.”

“Plenty of food to choose from. great place to sit, relax, eat and enjoy the mountain views.”

“They have the best food. It is just like eating at your Grandmothers house.All the food is so so good. Ervin and I eat out there often and we have never had to send anything back. All of the food is really good. The waitresses are GREAT too. Very personable and work well as a team. Top notch in my book.”

“Pink flamingo is what forest needed. They have the friendliest staff ever and the owner is amazing. We love coming here a few times a week.”

“The raspberry cheesecake is quite possibly the best ice cream I’ve ever had, the service is super friendly, and the environment is cozy. It’s a must try!”

“Coffee is amazing and Elizabeth at the Bedford location is amazing! She is so kind and helpful along with all the other workers! ☕️”

“The coffee here is delicious. Great options for pour overs which is my favorite brewing method. Friendly baristas to chat with as well. I also really like that they have two different kinds of espresso beans to choose from for espresso shots!”

“We love Monkee Joes but yesterday we went and ordered two of the same exact items (Monkee Poo Sundaes) and really disappointed. Normally don’t leave reviews but wanted to make them aware. Quite disappointed. Usually the more expensive specialty sundaes are a good size but we definitely had a let down yesterday.”

“Every time I go past, I try to stop and get something from here as I live an hour away. Today, I went in, looked at the salads, sandwiches, and cookies. I stood at the counter waiting to order. There were 2 ladies talking to 1 customer. They didn't acknowledge me at all. Two people came out of the back at different times and they didn't either. No hello or I'll be with you soon. Totally ignored, I walked out. Their cheesecakes and other pastries are delicious.”

“Had a wonderful time. The food was great, the sweet tea was delicious, and the desserts were out of this world. I came from Rocky Mount to see Benjamin and Sam because I had worked for them years ago at Mariners Landing. But didn't get to see either one. Thanks Benjamin and Sam for a wonderful belated birthday brunch. Taylor our waitress was absolutely wonderful.”

“My husband and I ate here for the 1st time Saturday for our anniversary. The salad bar was great! Had everything I liked on it. The rolls were Amazing (homemade) I got the 6oz filet and baked potatoe. It tasted good! It wasn't too busy and we enjoyed our dinner”

“Excellent! This is the first place that I have gotten a true New York Style Bagel. It made me smile when they told me the only difference was the water. It's a New York thing! Thank you for the chat and the delicious sandwiches. My husband and I truly enjoyed the atmosphere, the service and the food.”

“If you are looking for a wonderful place to eat delicious food served by lovely real people then Lori’s is the place to go. The pizza, salads, and sandwiches are delicious! The home made chips are great! And the bread knots are superb! And regards to the pizza the crust is just perfect! The entire staff were lovely real people who treated us in kindness and did a wonderful job. We will definitely go back.”

“Just ordered a burger and fries. Burger was amazing. However the fries was digusting - terrible, Over fried/burnt and cold. I tried my best. But went directy to trash.”

“The food was amazing & everyone was so nice!! Very cute place with plenty of meals to choose from! Can’t wait to go back!”

“Great facility definitely they definitely recommend taking a chance to eat there if you're in the area or definitely if you're playing the fabulous golf course stop by and check them out and see what they have to offer 5 stars”

“Kissed Cupcakes has been my Lynchburg ‘go-to’ for all things gluten free cupcakes/specialty baked goodies for over ten years now! The owners, management and staff are there to help you with your personalized order and their price ranges are perfection. If you’re looking for delicious and beautiful wedding or event cupcakes, work with Kissed Cupcakes. As a professional wedding planner, I highly recommend them for all your yummy treats!”

“The best Chinese around”

“It's really tasty frozen yogurt and a great selection of toppings. But nowhere do they post their prices. They have different size cups which implies it's not purely based on weight. But they still weigh the cups, so it plays a role in the price. I paid over $17 for two cups of frozen yogurt, which is pricey!”

“Came here for a dinner date with a friend and had such a great experience! My waitress, Norah, recommended the shrimp scampi and let me just say, it was so good. The atmosphere was super friendly and welcoming, and Norah was the sweetest! Great food, great service, and an overall amazing time!”

“I love a good Waffle House and this one is the best. Very clean, friendly staff, good food. I went around 11 am with my Gramma. We ordered the cheese steak sandwiches with hash-browns and they came to us steaming. Coffee was good too, sometimes it’s burned at other WH but not this one. There was hardly anyone in there when we arrived, ate, and left.”

“I showed up a few minutes before closing and Pete was more than happy to make me a sandwich. Location is always staffed with courteous employees and always very clean. I highly recommend.”

“DOG FRIENDLY..... In 2 places. Completely outside with a gazebo deal and an inside with one of those glass sunroom deals. Not sure I've seen a place with dual dog friendly spots.

I really really liked this place. Met some relatives here. This place has a wall full of awards as best place for MULTIPLE years running. It's sports bar-ish inside but way nicer. Has a neighborhood pub feel to it. If I lived anywhere close this place would be in regular rotation.

I got the pork schnitzel. Came with this incredible warm German potato salad which is one of my fave sides I've ever had. Sauerkraut was good. Schnitzel was perfect. Wish it had been larger but that's probably a personal problem. Also had a root beer on draft!

My dining partners had bratwurst platter and a burger. They all agreed it was excellent. They have a pretty extensive beer and cider list but it's one of those online deals and I just didn't have my phone but my relative was quite impressed.

We consider dessert but didn't get it but it was funnel cake, german chocolate cake and a cheesecake.”

“Great food, fresh and well prepared. Fried ice cream is a must. Would love to hear some louder music and possibly more lively atmosphere.

Skinny margs are alright, good tequila quantities but would be nice if they offered a fresh house-made marg mix. Rather than the syrup.

I’d rate the burritos on the high end!”

“Super quick service. Hostess was very attentive and patient. The atmosphere was great. We enjoyed ourselves. The taste of the food was wonderful. Most of the time my food outside of home can taste salty. The food here was seasoned to perfection. The pink lemonade was sweet not extremely sweet. Overall delightful experience.”

“Read to bottom… Went to dominos app to order pizza. $12.99 Coupon for a LARGE 5 topping. Click that coupon. Toppings selected: Hand tossed, not allowed to add extra sauce. Extra cheese, sausage, ham, black olive and mushroom. Price in cart: $13.99 Hmmmm… 5 small packs of Parmesan cheese. $.25 (5 cents each) Delivery fee: $5, thanks Covid. Tax: $1.39 Tip: 17%–$4 Total: $27 plus change… Pizza delivered: Brooklyn crust? Doesn’t look hand tossed original. Not enough cheese to even cover crust in middle of pizza. Very little topping overall. No crust sauce as ordered. Light pizza by weight. Only good thing is that it was hot. #dominoespizza #marcospizza is kicking your a$$ in quality, quantity and cost. $32 for 2 - 2 topping XL pizzas w/extra sauce free, parmesan free, garlic sauce, the night before, served hot n fresh, no dryness. Heavy pizza by weight. Comes with plates, silverware and napkins unlike Dominos. #sad”

“Food was delish! Service was great! Our empty food pods is evidence! Great work guys! Wish you were in NY.”
