“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Great service and friendly staff“

“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.“

(Ms. Linsey) She was extremely professional and we were able to be seated almost immediately. Service was great, the food came in a timely manner, and my mother really enjoyed her Mother's Day meal. Thank you guys again.“

“The service was wonderful! My visit was like a taste away from home! I enjoyed eating my doubles for the first time. It tasted just like the one I always eat at Independence Square, Port of Spain. I normally travel as far as Georgia or Washington DC to get some Trini food but glad I heard of La Rue Pomme to enjoy some good food and snacks!!! Thank you“

“We highly recommend . This place is worth every penny, let me tell you. The food, service, and atmosphere are all top-notch. Our server was Whitney and she was excellent. I was excited to try my filet when I saw it was wrapped in bacon. Everything was cooked to perfection. The salad bar has all my favorite ingredients. Ronnie and I both ordered filets, Kenny had prime rib, and mom chose lobster tails. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meals. We will definitely be going back.“

“You at Bojangles have gold with Yolanda. She's a great manager. The drive-thru messed up on my order and she took care of it. No questions asked. Couldn't ask for a more pleasant visit and quite honestly I'm not even mad that the order got messed up. Thanks to Yolanda. Y'all need to give her a raise.!“

“I stop by just about every day. The cashiers are always friendly and helpful, the food is very good and the wait is usually minimal. If the lines are long it’s just because the food is so good! If you’re in that big of a hurry call your order in and it’ll be ready when you get there.“

“As usual, this Red Lobster at Lynchburg is one of the best run and efficient of any we frequent. Service and quality of food is superb. The restaurant is clean and well kept.
Our attendant, Starla was great. Friendly and took good care of us.“

“Food Great
Service is Wonderful.
Take a jacket when you go, it is so damn cold in there everytime we've been that it's difficult to enjoy the meal before it goes cold.
Just 2 degrees higher would make this place more enjoyable.“

“I'm not even kidding when I say this is the best experience I've ever had in a restaurant! And I've eaten at a lot! This was the Chili's in Lynchburg, Virginia. I cannot tell you how pleasant it was to dine alone and have such fine service from Wanda! She literally was meeting my every need before I ever even asked. I literally just thought it, and a refill showed up. I just thought how nice it would be to have a box for my leftovers, and here it comes. The thought flitted through my mind how great it would be to take some chips and salsa home and she literally walked out of the kitchen with an extra bag and a to go of Diet Coke that I hadn't even asked for, but I had thought of. She was stellar and I gave her a 200% tip! I've already texted all of my friends in town and told them this is where we're eating next time we go out, and I'm bringing my sons back next week for dinner one night. I'm going to ask for Wanda! Aside from the stellar service, the food was incredible! I don't think I've ever seen a burger this big! It was so much food, I took half of it home and will eat it for supper. And if you consider it two meals, it's literally cheaper than fast food. Wow! What a fantastic experience, and I WILL be back!“

“They kindly offered to pay for my husbands dinner as he is a veteran. I loved the veterans table too“

“I came in here and had a one the biggest sit down meetings of my company and everything was perfect. Clean floors, great food, wonderful people managing and working. No lie the best Captain D’s in the universe. 💙“

“Scoreboards has a very inviting group of servers, kitchen staff, and security. Each employee interacts with the customers in a friendly manner, no matter the age, race, or creed. Food here is delicious, and the cooks accommodate changes to the dishes very skillfully to suit the customer. Prices are reasonable, and the crowd is fun!“

“IT IS FREEZING IN HERE TODAY!! It’s ridiculous that we had to get our coats on to eat. Could you consider the comfort of your customers before you consider the comfort of the cooks? Just asking. Staff are wearing long sleeves and agreeing that it’s cold and admits to “standing near the heat lamps” to stay warm. “
