“To start, we were able to get a table right away. Our server, Jake was on point and very attentive. There is plenty of seating for a couple. The staff was super friendly and helpful. We got the cheesy bread and Brussel Sprouts for apps, which were delicious. My Salmon Picatta was awesome and flavorful. The Fettuccine Alfredo was delicious and rich. Then we finished dinner with Tiramisu and Lemoncello Mascapone cake. I think we found a new favorite Italian restaurant.“

“Since the new undertaking of the restaurant space, Kabob Corner in Monroe has truly stepped up as a go-to spot for flavorful and affordable Mediterranean cuisine. The Chicken Gyro is a delicious standout, perfectly seasoned and wrapped in warm pita. Their creamy, rich hummus is the ideal starter; I order it every time I visit. The combo plate featuring koobideh and grilled chicken kabob is a flavor-packed winner for a main entrée. The food tastes fresh, and the restaurant is visibly clean, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. With generous portions and great value, Kabob Corner is definitely worth checking out, a win for Monroe.“

“I ordered two drinks and a couple snacks on their first night, excellent people and food. Glad to see some late night snacks besides typical chain restaurants. Great idea.“

“Main Street Cafe is a MUST stop. This place has the very best food. With the awesome waitstaff and fresh ingredients, you just can't get any better.“

“Been here twice now and it is amazing! Had the pizza last time I was here. Tonight I had the Italian Meatball Sandwich. It was huge and very filling! Not dry like most places. Had semi spicy meatballs, provelone and marinara sauce on a toasted roll. Yum!! Will be back for sure!“

“On point EVERY TIME!! I moved to Duvall a couple years ago and received a Welcome Bag with a coupon for a free pizza from Red Pepper. I got the chicken, bacon, ranch pizza and it became my go-to order. I just ordered a pepperoni, olive, VERY lite sauce and it was perfect! The crust is slightly crispy and soft on the inside. They knew what they were doing by pitting a free pizza coupon in the welcome bags. The crew and delivery drivers are always super friendly, as well. Whenever I've ordered for pickup, it's always ready when I arrive. Whenever I order for delivery, it arrives super quickly. I love this little hidden gem in our amazing town“
