“We had been in town furniture shopping and were looking for an early dinner before we headed home. Southern Roots was amazing. The atmosphere and ambience was great kind of a chic beach theme going. Our server was great she was very attentive and helpful. When my wife was having trouble choosing between 2 wines she brought her samples of each to help.My wife had a glass of wine and I had a spiced Manhattan that was on their drink specials. The Manhattan was great best one I had had in a long time. Bartender was nice enough to show me what she used so I could replicate at home.We had a rosemary half loaf for an appetizer and it was very good not overpowering but the bread and the rosemary butter complimented each other.We stuck with sandwiches we had a steak and cheese wrap and the billy bob sandwich. Fries for one side and cole slaw for the other. Everything was delicious and well prepared. Fries were solid and the Cole slow was a mayo base and alot of liquid which we like. The billy bob has a Fried green tomato, gouda pimento cheese and bacon. It was really good. If I came back I would have a burger with the Gouda Pimento cheese because I loved that and think it would compliment it well.Loved the visit and dinner and will definitely be back when we are in the area. Everything we saw coming out of the kitchen looked great and we now have a number of other items we are looking forward to trying.“
“Literally the best ice cream I've ever had. The first waffle cone I got was chocolate moose tracks and bourbon brown butter. It was so good I had to go back the next day and get another cone. This time it was key lime pie and mint moose tracks. Key lime pie was probably my favorite. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!“
“The staff are the kindest people ever! When you join the rewards program, you're given enough points to redeem a free drink. Tons of different drink options to pick from ranging from smoothies, energy drinks, iced teas, juices, shakes and coffee. I recommend the iced caramel macchiato if you like sweeter coffee. Shop local! It's worth it!“
“Well, Lisa & I finally made it to Odeh’s, & now we can’t wait to go back! Everything thing about this place is awesome! The food is amazing, & so fresh! The staff is great. Friendly and attentive. We left full, yet wanting more. That won’t be a problem because we couldn’t believe how many items were on the menu. Highly recommended!“
“Went with a friend to try some crepes. Lovely atmosphere, large menu, lots of coffee and tea options. The (I'm assuming) owner was very nice, and the woman at the register was sweet and put up with our indecisiveness lol. I definitely recommend this place, and I will definitely be coming back. I recommend the Nutella and fruit crepe!“
“I am a Greensboro fan with so many good local eateries to choose from. Freemason Grub & Pub is no exception.The signage is challenging in the dark, but the exterior green lights likely leftover from St. Patty's helped identify them. It's an adorable two story brick with wonderful character. Parking is off street or in their own small lot in the rear.My wife and I cut our arrival a bit close after 830 with a weekday closure of 9. The interior offers a cozy vibe with wood floors, exposed brick and dimly lit dining room . The bourbon bar is the centerpiece. With closing in 20 minutes the restaurant was mostly empty.Our friendly waitress Bella was on top of drink orders. I ordered an Old Fashioned utilizing Makers bourbon with a banana flavor profile. It proved to be outstanding @ $14. Bella encouraged us to try their bbq which they are known for, we ended up both getting the Cherrywood Brisket. My wife with side of Cesar and me side of cup of chili for $1 up charge. The recommendations really made the difference.Bella brought the food out within 15 minutes. Temperatures were correct. The brisket was magnificent. Tender with fat to meat ratio. The house sauce was perfect with a slight kick. The cup of chili was yum with Navy Bean and frito corn chips on top that was unusual. My wife agreed with my assessment on the brisket and her salad was fresh.We finished out splitting a butterfinger pie which was good size for the share. It proved to be mighty tasty and not a crumb was left.Our bill was brought to us in a timely fashion to close out. Since we were out of town Bella suggested a few other local places. I would recommend Freemason and who knows may return this week.Parking: Parking in rear“
“How have I not written a review of the Sage Mule until now?! We love this place and my only complaint is that they aren't open more hours ha ha ha. This is simply one of our favorite places to go eat outside at. They will almost always have the outside seating available, which is really rare here in Greensboro (sadly). The staff is always friendly and the food is always good. Our go-to is the blue plate special for brunch but you can't go wrong with their brisket and any number of other specials.“
“Always friendly, everything our family has chosen has turned out to be delicious. Need to try if haven’t had this custard ice cream before. You won’t be sorry, love at first bite.Parking: Parking is across from the store.Wheelchair accessibility: Easy to get to the order window.“
“Amazing coffee shop with nice vibes in downtown Greensboro. So glad I stopped in. Top notch customer service actually offered for me to taste test the coffee brew before I buy. Wow! Had a beautifully crafted Cortada (really was) and delicious bagel. So good that I opted for a brew to go. Will certainly return.“
“Very cute cafe with speciality drinks with seasonal flavors. I highly recommend the Trainwreck chai latte! The outside seating area is really cute for sunny days. Must go to place for a nice cup of coffee! The owner and cafe team are also very friendly (recommended local things to do for our short visit to high point)“
“First time going and it was great!!! Staff was super friendly and was ahead of any questions we may have asked. One of the hostess even played / talked with my 6 yo Granddaughter. Not to mention the food was delicious and they have one of the best briskets we've had since moving from TX. This could be our new place.Parking: Parkings in the back. Decent amount of spaces.Kid-friendliness: Definitely was kid friendly....and find Waldo!!“
“One of the best kava’s we’ve ever had. Loved that with the way they brew their tea so no added syrup is needed. Highly recommend the crush (for experienced) amazing service, good atmosphere. As a former kava bar manager I was thoroughly impressed with the quality of products and knowledge of the kavatender.“
“If you haven't tried Astro dogs, this is your sign! It is a must try! I've been a few times and it's always delicious!! I love that the corn dogs taste fresh and flavorful. They have a nice variety of different ones to try and you can get meat, cheese, or both inside. The staff are very nice here as well. I like that you can order online and then pick it up also.“
“I like to just come to Oden to chill out on a rocking chair and have several beers. The exterior space especially is hella awesome, and they've invested in a lot of fire pits and heaters for it so that the whole premises of the brewery can be utilized year round. Train tracks are to one side, and Gate City Boulevard is to the other. Not everyone thinks of roads and railways as things of beauty, but then again, they usually don't think of arteries and veins as articles of rapture either. They are though. Each headlight that passes by in the night is a luminescent corpuscle, and inside the cab of each car or the cabin of every train carriage is a package of energy called a human being. Every one of our lives, although they last for but an instant in the vast overpowering rush of nature, is a chance for the universe itself to revel in its own existence. I'm not sure if there's a God. Are my hemocytes sure if I exist? I've had several beers. Here be a good place to rock.“
“Our first time and really happy we stopped in. Fresh food, great menu, good prices. I really want to come in for the breakfasts. Had a taco salad: Yes the old school way with a tortilla shell. Got to make it my way. Enjoyed every bite. Clean place not a lot of seating, does have outdoor patio seating. They were busy and hoppin (always good to see). Can't wait to try them again!“
“Great people, great service, and delicious pretzels! Today was my third visit and I brought my uncle along. I love coming here, and I will certainly be back!! ? We even got some free entertainment—a live racing experience put on by a sweet young man. ? I appreciate what they stand for and that they’re not ashamed to show that they love Jesus. Absolutely love it!“
“I got the mint chocolate chip Whittie of the month with the double chocolate cookies and it was phenomenal! The cookies are a perfect, soft, and chewy texture and the custard is so creamy and flavorful. It was a huge ice cream sandwich! I could only eat half and saved the rest for later. My husband got the strawberry shortcake custard, which was also really good!“
“This is a solid pizza place. The menu is unique and the food is well prepared. Prices are a bit high for pizza and they don’t carry any Coke/Pepsi products but an off brand soda that we didn’t try. Service left something to be desired — friendly enough, but could have been more attentive to our table especially when there weren’t that many other people in the restaurant in the mid-afternoon.But, overall, it’s worth a try! Recommend the salad that I can’t remember the name of but it has honeyed walnuts on it that are amazing! Plus the chicken on the pizza was excellent!“
“I could not agree more with the previous gentleman's comment about the cleanliness of The Funnel King food truck. My wife is very picky about food trucks and she said it was so clean you could probably eat off the floor! Quite an endorsement, right? The owner is very nice, service with a smile, I've truly never seen him be anything less than kind. The food is absolutely fantastic and you certainly get plenty of it for the price. Thank you very much for all of this, 'til next time!“
“This was the first time visiting since it turned from Thai to Mexican. The food was good and had a very complex flavor. I had the soup and it was great. We stayed for a little longer than most guests. They didn't seem annoyed, but continued to check on us. I love the atmosphere it was very colorful and made a great backdrop for the restaurant.“
“I've been here about 5 times with slightly different experiences. The first few times we went, had the BEST service and more than amazing food. The last two times, not bad, just not what I had become used to as their standard. Photos are from my most recent visit with some work friends. Service was decent, but the sandwich I normally get was not quite the same. Also being someone who loves potato salad, theirs is a pass. Overall, I will absolutely be back but may skip lunch during the week and aim for weekends where I experienced top notch service and food!!“
“Westerwood has held a place in my heart for about 13 years. This homey dive always feels like a welcoming spot. While I no longer live in the area, so you couldn't call me a regular anymore, I still love Westerwood. Here you can find friendly bartenders who feel like friends. A variety of draft beers, affordable liquor pricing, and a cooler of cans & bottles. It's very likely you'll be able to find something that hit the drink itch you might have. Over the years it's gotten brighter and cleaner inside but it's still that perfect homey drive. If you're in GSO looking for a bar to call home, don't skip over Westerwood. Currently (Sept 3rd 2023): Tuesday (9 pm - 12 am) and Friday (11 pm - 2 am) is Karaoke Wednesday (10 pm to 12 am) is trivia Thursday $4 any shot and free pool P.S. Dogs are welcome inside and out.“
“Definitely the cool local spot that has something for everyone! The art aesthetic and the shabby chic seating made it feel cozy, but the real reason you visit is for their amazing beers! The menu boasts everything from IPA to Kolsch. They even make their own labeled and bottle wines! (2 red and 1 white on the menu currently) It is a place to bring you dog, kids, friends, or even a date. So glad to have stumbled upon it.“
“Great place to grab a refreshing drink. They have a great selection of milk teas, coffee-baised drinks, bobas, and various specialty drinks. You can adjust the amount of sugar and ice they use in the drinks. They add new drinks seasonally/every so often. The service is always quick and nice. I usually order a drink or two to go, but the interior is nice and cozy as well, with some game boards avaliable to play while you sit and a small photo nook. It does have an anime theme and you can buy anime stickers at the register.“
“I stopped by for a quick drink and I was greeted by Mario and he made me the most delicious drink I’ve had in a long time. Coming from Texas for work it had been a while since I had a great margarita. He made me a cilantro and cucumber margarita with a Tajín rim. 10/10“
“I have been coming here for a while now! I love the bartenders and the beers are great! They are also dog friendly and always welcoming with my large dog! I have always felt so welcomed and I love trying all the beers on tap! The Nutty Blonde is fantastic! This is my favorite place to go in high point hands down!“
“Went in for the Bourbon Winter Ale and it did not disappoint. Should have stopped at one!! All good though and walking distance for us! We are in at least once each week and love having such a good brewery so close by. Food trucks and live music are a regular occurrence so check out their Facebook page.“
“Came with some friends and had a blast! Amber was so pleasant. She recommended this drink the girls were drinking down at the end of the bar (pixie stick martini) and we loved them! Amber you rock. I’ll definitely be coming back to see you.“
“Such a cute little bar next to The Idiot Box! Great place for pre or post show drinks or just a spot to hang out. Great local beer selections with many different styles for everyone to enjoy! I recently had a few pernicious IPAs and they were super hoppy and fresh. If beer isn't your thing, there are so many types of wine and seltzers to enjoy!“
“Met out-of-town relatives for brunch on a recent Saturday. No wait at 10:45 AM (but I had joined the waitlist online.) I thoroughly enjoyed my FGT Eggs Benedict & was generously given an extra side of scrumptious Hollandaise at no charge! My sister raved about her Mariner omelette and her husband polished off his Country Style Skillet in no time flat. Service was excellent. Prices were on point for the excellent quality of our food. We'll be back!! (Sorry for misappropriating your slogan, Mr. Schwarzenegger )!“
“This was our second experience at elm street grill. We ABSOLUTELY love this establishment. From the food, to the service, to the spirits. 10/10 recommend for your next outing. We drive over an hour to come back and hang with the staff. They make you feel special from the moment you walk in the door!“
“It was nice when I enter into the door and it was very spacious and relaxing and the people were very friendly and courteous to me and my family and the food was delicious hands down and satisfying! My first time visit was very nice and calming! I love eating over there!“
“I died and went to Ice Cream Heaven. Every flavor or Hershey's Ice Cream in existence can be found here, has to be 50+. So many flavors that they have more in the back, just ask, even lactose free. It's hard to choose between the Moose Tracks because there are 5+ types including Mint Moose Tracks and Banana PB Moose Tracks. The service is always great.“
“What a great spot! The poke nachos were delicious and well balanced between fresh avocado, high quality tuna, and plenty of the other fixings. The fries were fresh and not at all over-battered. I had a special, the pesto chicken sandwich with arugula and prosciutto. Banger. Beer was great, too! Flight is the way to go. Great spot! ?“
“This place has a great atmosphere! There were young folks and enough of us Boomers to make it interesting! Good Beer ? Good music. Plenty of places to sit and gather, a nice little stage, warmers outside for when it’s cold, plenty of parking. We had amazing Cuban food while we had our reasonably priced beers. Recommend this place!“
“Edit - Joymongers management went above and beyond and refunded me the entire amount. I used that to buy 4 random patrons their drink. I am very impressed with their professionalism and integrity. Excellent establishment and would highly recommend.Original post -On March 17, 2024, my wife and myself ordered a Brux IPA and a bourbon lemonade. The total was $17 incl tip. My credit card was charged $30. I raised a dispute with Chase and they credited the excess amount back to me. I am happy I got my money back, but a little annoyed that the establishment, Joy Mongers, gets to keep the money that was over charged by them. I called the establishment, but it goes to voice mail. Pretty sure they would say "dO yOu HaVe YoUr ReCeIpT..", which I don't, because who even keeps receipts anymore...Anyways, the establishment is nice, hold on to your receipts to avoid my situation.“
“We often forget about Porterhouse because there are so many burgers in this town, but we really enjoy everytime we go there. The food is very good, and they have some unique things that stand out - recently they've change their menu to be a little less unique which is a shame but I understand the need to make business decisions and it seems like everyone in town has changed their menu this past winter. The service is always friendly although they always seem a bit understaffed which means their servers are working pretty hard sometimes. We frequently go to Porterhouse for birthdays or in other small groups as they have something for most people and are fairly priced.“
“Been going here for 10+ years and it gets better everytime. Their beer selection is phenomenal and their food is consistent and delicious! From a buffalo chicken wrap to the tacos, Philly cheese steak or their amazing BLT and sweet potato fries - don’t skip going here! Plus, their staff just straight up rocks! Highly recommend.“
“I had the Cuban sandwich and it was to die for. My son had the black and blue burger on a pretzel bun but substituted American for blue cheese and loved it. Everyone was friendly and food was awesome. We will be back the next time we are in Greensboro!“

“Just left Sumela for the first time and boy I cannot stop thinking about my next visit! My server, Cody, who seemed to be running the whole front of house by herself which is amazing, let me choose my seat, I asked her for a recommendation and I could tell she didn't want to choose so I said surprise me! She came out with the Sumela Sampler and I ate every bite. Thank you to Cody, I'll be seeing you again soon!“
“I wish one would open up in Wilmington!!!!I LOVED coming here with my dogs. The staff is attentive and they make sure no dogs are going to escape while new dogs are coming in. I love that there are dog park attendants in addition to the bartender. Definitely not the case at other dog park/pubs I've been to. They are strict about your dog being up-to-date on vaccines (which is awesome), the water is always clean, and the whole place overall is just super clean and nice. They also have spray bottles out to correct bad behavior. Also plenty of seating outside so you can actually hang out while the dogs are playing.“
“Decent cup of coffee and a cool ambiance. They have a schtick, and that's fun. The place probably needs some renovations but it seems like they got new windows, so thats good. The coffee isn't too fancy in terms of roast or profile, but it's a fresh cup and they have a variety of options available. And what's more, they have a community feel which makes this place special.“
“We were in the neighborhood and decided to eat here. This place is cool!Ross was amazing! He was very friendly and helpful! I had the bacon, egg and cheese on a croissant with a side of potatoes! It was absolutely delicious, flavorful and crispy bacon!!! My daughter had waffles with strawberries and bananas. She loved it! Looking forward to coming back again!!!“
“This is hands down the best Chinese food I've ever had! The meat was a great quality and cooked beautifully and the staff were incredible! Even the plain white rice was something to be excited to eat! We ordered the pork in garlic sauce which was absolutely amazing and stole the show! The crab rangoons were cooked perfectly and had an amazing flavor, the egg drop soup is TO DIE FOR! Also this is the only place I'll be getting chicken on a stick, which is a nostalgic food for us that has only gotten better! Thank you Huang's Kitchen for putting love into what you serve!“
“Singha is hands down our go to take out or dine in Thai. We don’t just come here for the food, although it is the best we’ve had (not joking. We are tough critics). We come here for an experience. The wife and husband have become like family. They know our kids, our orders and our preferred seating as soon as we walk in the door. The ambience is quiet and we instantly arrive in a better spirit. We have taken friends and family here with us and each time they are grateful for experience and leave so impressed. The best ‘we told you so’ moments. We are from Greensboro and make our way here once a week religiously with zero regrets. Hands down, 1000% recommend.“

“Deliteful atmosphere, although a litte too dark for me during my initial visit. The entrance is counterintuitive so go along to the left hand side. The staff was friendly and cordial. The food served quickly and hot, although I felt they skipped on the beans and rice portions compared to others.Parking: You will have to search to find, then walk“
“My only complaint would be that it's a few arcade games that do not work. But besides that, fair drink prices. I have not tried the pizzas, but it looks ?. Great places to take the kid during the daylight hours to get a drink and also to spend some time with them in a fun space.“
“I came to Mac's Speed Shop with my team after a game and Mac's was the perfect place to grab a meal. The food was great and our server, Ary, was very attentive and very nice towards all of us. Thank you Ary and Macs Speed Shop for a great dining experience!“
“I have loved Indian food since my first salmon curry dish in Seattle Washington at a small local authentic restaurant. It is both flavourful and healthy. And if you're a vegetarian it has some of the best choices. From TaazaBistro, I got the mixed vegetable appetizer and the garlic naan. it was so much food. Mostly deep fried spinach, which I've never had before and it was so well seasoned as was the samosa and paneer pakoras. I was looking for just a light dish after work and it did not disappoint. The garlic naan was good too. I only wish there were more garlic on the naan and a larger portion of the sauces.“
“We have been trying different Greek/ Mediterranean restaurants in the area and this place is by far the best! So delicious and not outrageously priced. Everything was correct in our to-go order and the fries even stayed crispy and fresh. Will definitely be back!“
