“Olive Garden of Wake Forest has done it yet again. We had a super star Server tonight Ms.Diane. She and Chris have to be 2 of the best servers I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. They are Johnny on the spot. Before you can ask for it she had it in front of us. ALMOST LIKE THEY CAN READ MINDS. Way to go Olive Garden for recognizing great talent . Thank you again Ms.Diane, see you at the movies.“
“Wake Forest is our go-to location! We LOVE Panera! Service is fast, food is delicious, and it’s very clean. Kelvin (who I think might be the manager) is very professional and always in upbeat spirits! It’s great to see. You can tell he takes pride in his work and customers!“
“Nothing beats a passionate chef. Tonight was my first experience, and it's only the beginning! The staff was amazing and did not make me feel rushed. 5-star plus. I've never been to a restaurant where all the mussels were open and full of flavor until Northside Bistro. It was impressive and absolutely delicious, and they also serve some of the best cocktails I've ever had!“
“I snuck away with my niece in law and her boyfriend to get away from thanksgiving food on Black Friday lol. We came just in time for the lunch special (Good prices too!) we were the second party there and quickly seated and served. I order a horchata and my niece got a margarita flight. Both were very good and sweet! My meal was also great the chicken had onions, cheese and garlic on top. The garlic to me might have been too much but still tasty.“
“I love Zest! It’s relaxed and the staff is great! Nice lunch and shopping place!Parking: Plenty of space most times I’ve goneKid-friendliness: It’s family friendly with high chairs and flexible seatingWheelchair accessibility: Easy parking and ramp access in this mall“
“Absolutely ? delicious!!! Thank youI am still in the parking lot - couldn't wait to get home. I have just eaten the pounded yam & egusi soup. I am so full lol.Egusi soup is very flavorful, with chunks of stockfish with chicken (done the way I like it - fried well and seasoned just right). Fresh cooked food - hot and spiced well. Worth the wait time! My 1st visit - would be back, highly recommend. ?Tomorrow, i will try the other items I ordered - moi moi and fried rice with plantains tomorrow I am sure they will be just as yummy delicious!!! Cheers, Kike“
“Best Mahi Mahi I have had anywhere! I know it's a steak house and the steaks are excellent, pricey, but excellent. Hubby had the filet and it was excellent, as was the hash browns and duck fat mushrooms. The shinning star, to me, was the grilled Mahi Mahi on the potato hash and asparagus. Superb! Excellent service from Valitina! Always timely without being intrusive. Always a please experience and don't forget 1/2 price wine on Tuesdays and Thursdays!!“
“We tried vegetarian food at Thai Bangcok. It's a very small restaurant with simple embience. Food was good. Only thing that starter came after main dish came, that too after 2 reminders. But food was good. Portion was little small ut ok.Vegetarian options: Usually, Thai food is closer to many Indian dishes. Specially, spices etc. BUT, any Asian food serving places have one problem , chicken, fish, and sauces are considered vegetarian. If you are vegetarian, then you have to clarify that, NO PAULTRY, NO SEEFOOD, NO EGGS.They do replace stuff with TOFU, soya solids. Rest is fine. Asian places are fast in their services and most items are prepared the same day except sauces and some pickles etc. I like Thai foods because they have not made many hrs/ days ahead of time, it is less in oil and spices and mostly its fresh.Wheelchair accessibility: The entrance of this restaurant was a little small for a wheelchair. They do have handicape parking in front of their main door, though.“
“Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I recently had the pleasure of dining at a local Korean barbecue restaurant, and I must say, it was an absolutely incredible experience from start to finish! From the warm ambiance to the exceptional service and mouthwatering dishes, this place truly exceeded my expectations. Let's talk about the star of the show: the food. The moment I stepped inside, I was greeted by the enticing aroma of sizzling meats on the grill. The extensive menu offered a delightful array of traditional Korean dishes, each bursting with authentic flavors that transported my taste buds straight to Korea. The attentive staff explained each dish with great detail, ensuring that we made the most of our dining experience. Now, let me introduce you to the highlights of the meal. The kimchi bulgogi, a classic Korean barbecue staple, was an absolute delight. The tender, marinated beef cooked to perfection, combined with the spicy tanginess of the kimchi, created a harmonious explosion of flavors in my mouth. It was a true masterpiece that left me craving more with each bite. But the deliciousness didn't stop there. The galbi, thinly sliced beef short ribs, were unbelievably tender and succulent. Grilling them to perfection on the tableside grill was an interactive experience that added to the overall enjoyment. The bulgogi, thinly sliced marinated beef, was another standout dish. The balance of sweet and savory flavors was impeccable, making it a true crowd-pleaser. One cannot talk about a Korean barbecue experience without mentioning the banchan. The restaurant's assortment of traditional side dishes was beyond impressive. From the pungent kimchi to the delicate pickled vegetables and the addictive crispy pancakes, each banchan added a new layer of taste and texture to the meal. It was a feast for the senses, and I appreciated the variety and quality of these accompaniments. Now, onto the service. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive throughout our entire meal. They expertly guided us through the menu, ensuring that we made informed decisions. They were quick to refill our banchan and check on the grill, ensuring that our dining experience was seamless. Their warm hospitality truly enhanced our overall enjoyment of the evening. The quality of the food was outstanding. Every ingredient used was fresh and of the highest quality. It was evident that the chefs took great pride in their craft, as each dish was meticulously prepared and beautifully presented. The attention to detail in the flavors and presentation was commendable and made every bite an absolute pleasure. In conclusion, my visit to this local Korean barbecue restaurant was an absolute triumph. The delicious and authentic flavors, combined with the exceptional service, created an unforgettable dining experience. If you're seeking a true taste of Korea and a dining adventure that will leave you yearning for more, look no further. This place is a gem that I wholeheartedly recommend to anyone in search of the best Korean barbecue in town.“
“Leo's is located where Mia Francesca used to be--right next to the lobby in the Renaissance Hotel. Our daughter had her wedding reception here in its former life as Mia Francesca. So this spot is near and dear to us. We are happy to see the space reclaimed by another wonderful Italian restaurant like Leo's. On this night, they featured live music. The restaurant has elegant decor but still has a casual feel. Nice for date night. The food was absolutely delicious! For starters, we had the beef carpaccio, which was excellent as it was prepared the way we are accustomed. Hubby was delighted that it came with shallots and capers! Next, we had calamari, which was fried to perfection; nice large slices versus being bits and pieces. The batter was nicely seasoned, and the portion was generous. For our entrees, hubs had the chicken parm. The filet was pounded thin the way he likes; and seasoned just so (and not too much breading and not greasy) and topped with pomodoro sauce. The twist was that his pasta (herbed linguini) was topped with a creamy rich white sauce. Ooo yum! I had the lasagna, which came out piping hot. The noodles were cooked just so--tender and smothered in a rich bolonese sauce, which was house made. The bolonese sauce layered with the ricotta, mozzarella, pomodoro, and alfredo sauce combo was pure YUMMMY DELICIOUSNESS! Dessert was a gooey butter cake with a generous scoop of vanilla bean gelato and fresh strawberries. The cake was moist and sweet; which the strawberries countered quite well. And who doesn't love gelato? Yum yum yum! The service was top tier--from the hostess' warm greeting and big smile to Lexi, who was our lovely waitress. She was soft spoken, attentive and always smiling. She was superb! DINNER WAS FOLLOWED UP WITH 2 COMPLEMENTARY GLASSES OF CHAMPAGNE!! EXCELLENT WAY TO END A FANTASTIC DINNING EXPERIENCE! We found a new happy place.“

“This place was truly AMAZING!!!!!! The prices were into comparison to if they were selling tuna or Turkey not REAL MAINE LOBSTER and LUMP CRAB MEAT. The owners of this store should have their own class teaching other restaurant owners the true hospitality that we all look for in restaurants. This place is a DEFINITELY MUST TRY!!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5-stars!!!!“
“This location looked really nice and clean. Our waitress Kam was informative, generous, and patient. I always viewed Olive Garden as the Walmart of restaurant chains, but this experience has turned me around. I look forward to coming back here with my wife“
“Good Vietnamese food. We've had the oxtail pho before but for the value stick with rare beef pho. Also ate the BBQ Bahn mi, bread is so soft, make sure to eat it right after it's served and you won't regret it. Vietnamese iced milk coffee is really good too and a nice way to finish off your meal. And if you want some bubble tea there is a shop a few storefronts over.“
“Hubs and I couldn’t decide what to have for dinner and we’re tired of always eating the same things. Opted for Tikila Tacos & Mezcal and they DID NOT disappoint. They were decently busy but that did not stop the customer service. My husband had to work late so I went solo w my 2 year old and the owner even offered to carry my take out to the car for me! We got quesabirra tacos, asada quesadillas, two chicken tacos and two asada tacos. We left no crumbs! Can’t wait to go back!!“
