Restaurants in Wilkesboro

“After hearing only utmost praise for The Spice is Right, I decided on ordering lunch from them today. I arrived shortly before peak hours and ordered the Chicken Fajita Wrap. I had to wait a little longer than I initially expected, but that completely passed my mind after I was given a FULL REFUND for what the chef called "overcooked chicken." I must disagree though, the dish was fantastic. I'll definitely be returning in order to pay them back.”

“I love this place! There food is delicious, I tell friends it’s just like eating at Granny,s! (And my Granny was the best cook). Service is always excellent ?. Now, if you are looking for fancy it’s not ! It’s an old country diner with great food, just what we were looking for, we drive about an hour one way to eat there once or twice a week.”

“Chappy's was amazing - I'm glad my girlfriend came across it while planning our MLK weekend out in the mountains. The man Chappy himself took our orders while telling us about his cool little bar-turned-crêperie location. Super cool atmosphere inside that I didn't expect when I first saw it from the road.We split the pesto crepe and each got a sweet crepe a piece - the smores for me and the berry for my girlfriend. Chappy was happy to customize them in any way as well. They were delicious - see photos. ?Definitely check it out if you're in the area!”

“This is not our first time and I usually don’t post reviews but it’s always amazing! And this time wasn’t any different! The blackened ribeye was cooked perfectly and our service was amazing!”

“Stopped in when passing through. The people working there are some of the most kind and genuine people I have ever met, salt of the earth. Oh, and the food, it was great too. Can’t wait to stop back by next time I’m in town.”

“My family has a place in the mountains about 45 mins from here, but this is where we exit the highway. I try to stop at Santa Lucia every opportunity I can to pick-up food on the way out there! One of the best, hole in the wall, Mexican spots I've found in N.C. You know it's good when most of the staff/patrons are speaking Spanish. I usually get a chorizo burrito (big portion, lots of meat), plus sides of queso and guacamole - both are excellent and their chips are perfection!! Having said that, I've never had anything I didn't like from here. It's unassuming and in what appears to be a converted gas station ... exactly what you want for no frills Mexican food. If you're going on a Friday evening, I suggest calling ahead. They get really busy and wait times can exceed an hour if you have a big order.”

“I had the Paco salad and enjoyed it very much! Family friendly and great service!Parking: Montes is in a shopping center and there is plenty of parking available.Kid-friendliness: There are kid-friendly options on the menu and the wait staff are willing to have the kitchen make changes.”

“Visiting from Atlanta, GA and decided to try some drinks here! IPAs are pretty good and they have a HUGE food selection. We tried the cheese sticks and it was a good portion. The flavor was delicious. Mystery Machine IPA was great!”

“Your local, "hole in the wall" restaurant. I would go out of my way to eat here. Home made Mexican style bakery. I believe they are actually el Salvadorean but great food, none the less. The pork carnitas tacos were perfect. Soft and moist in the middle and crunchy on the edges. The pupusas are perfect. If you don't like their pupusas, you don't like pupusas. Priced reasonable and speed of food was good. Get your authentic, high-quality food here.”

“Stopped in after playing disc golf at Rolling Pines, and what a great placeEverything was awesome, and we will definitely be returning the next time we come to town.”

“I didn’t think there was a place in Wilkes to get a real, make ya mouth water, burger. I went through the drive through and the young lady was so polite and friendly. This is a very unique restaurant that reminds me of the good old days ❤️ I’ll be back soon!”

“Lori was great! Very nice and polite! We didn’t even have to ask for refills or to go drinks she brought them over when she brought our box!Parking: Easy to get to”

“Since moving to NC from CA, I have been missing a really good carnitas, beans and rice, chili relleno and a few other favorites. This restaurant reminds me of the flavors I could get just over the border and have missed so much. The service is great, fast, fresh and accurate. I eat here at least once a week and am thrilled to have found such a delicious gem.Vegetarian options: Veggie quesadilla is awesomeParking: Open parking in a strip mall type shopping center”

“We had a luncheon at Olive Garden for 22 people following a family funeral. It was Easter Saturday. The manager, Ben Robbins, graciously agreed to host our group and seated us in a private area of the restaurant. The food was fantastic, our servers were professional, gracious, and attentive, and our fellowship was full of sharing memories. I am honored to highly recommend Olive Garden in Wilkesboro, NC.”
