Waitress was real nice and very helpful. Food was very good. One of the best cheeseburgers I've ever eaten. Highly recommend.

After a bad experience previously, since it has been a while we figured we would try it again. It was even worse. I ordered the spaghetti a la Venus hoping It had gotten good again. Wrong. The large portion was even smaller. Just a sprinkle of barely melted mozzarella cheese and the sauce was obviously store bought. The mushrooms, peppers and onions were not sautéed. We also ordered the Salisbury steak with broccoli casserole and mashed potatoes. It wasn't edible. It was cold and the broccoli casserole tasted strange. Not wanting to complain because it would have been futile, we paid and left. We ended up going to a different restaurant all together. Never. Ever. Again. This was probably the worst food I have ever eaten at a restaurant. Seriously. Note: the server was excellent.

Have been coming here for years. I always get the chicken parmesan. Family-owned, friendly staff, and great food. Can’t beat

Ok, full disclosure.... I'm not a fan of diners, I know it's so very Un American of me! I expected to leave WestTown disappointed and underwhelmed but I was pleasantly surprised on this trip. I got the Greek omelet with bacon and it was flavorful and stuffed full of tomatoes, spinach and feta. The home fries were crispy and seasoned nicely too. My friend ordered the two egg breakfast that comes with a third egg free if requested. She's southern by birth and gave the accompanying biscuit and sausage gravy a thumbs up. The mimosa flight was disappointing as it tasted more like juice than a bubbly mimosa. But at $10, it shouldn't surprise anyone that it isn't heavy on the alcohol. I would suggest bumping up the price and balancing out the ratio. All in all, I typically avoid diners that have such extensive menus but for a solid breakfast at a great price, I will visit WestTown again. On a fun note, they've recently added a soup flight after a social media post on a "Winston Eats FB Page" requested that such a thing should exist. So far, great reviews on that so maybe I'll try that next time too! Service was fast and friendly ....ambiance is what you would expect. ...Nice family run, casual spot! New ownership so if you've tried them in the past, might be worth another try..... but you really need to be a diner person too

West Town restaurant has been a local favorite for many years and I was recently able to visit for a meal with my father. He has been going to West Town so long that everyone working there knows his name. The server was very friendly and made it easy to order. I chose the hot ham and cheese sandwich and chicken and rice soup. The soup was flavorful, not unlike the kind you could make at home. I wish it had more broth, but you won't miss out on chicken and rice. The hot ham and cheese was standard fare and it was good. Perhaps in the future I'll return when I come back to town to visit family.

We had lunch on a Thursday, around 1:15pm. We were seated immediately. The staff was very friendly and courteous and answered questions about the menu.I was hoping for some Southern comfort foods (open faced roast beef sandwiches, chicken fried steak or chicken with gravy, squash casserole, sweet potato casserole) but we manage to find several delicious items to choose from.I had the "small" order (three!!) of pork chops and the broccoli casserole. Very tasty.My son had a burger and hush puppies and he said they were excellent.My other son had the fried catfish and WOW. I'll be going back for that. Three perfectly cooked, salt&pepper catfish filets, so fluffy they almost floated away. DELICIOUS ?AND, he got a side of fries, Greek style, with feta, dill, and lemon juice and a side of tza-tziki for dipping. It sounds crazy but it was crazy-good. TRY THEM!!I'd like to go back on a Friday/Saturday and try the prime rib, too. It's only available those days.Would definitely recommend the catfish, and maybe more. Good first impression.

Guy was a jerk on the phone. Said I may be arriving a few minutes after closing. He insisted I needed to arrive before 9pm..Should have opted out. .
This was a great find after a nearby school basketball game. The food was delicious and very reasonably priced.

Ordered online and picked up at window. My sides were missing from my meal. Called and they offered to have me come back and get a replacement meal, but didn't want to drive all the way back there. Decided to eat my chopped sirloin and make the best of it, but the chopped sirloin was barely warm in the center and was not completely cooked.

I had breakfast here for the first time. The food was good as was the service. I felt like it was a little high priced, 30+ dollars for two people. Maybe that is the new normal sadly.The only thing that put me off had nothing to do with the restaurant, but still affected my enjoyment. There was a couple with two children, and one of the children basically non-stopped threw a tantrum.

So we decided to come to Westtown restaurant because it's right up the road from the house, and we rarely eat here but I did see a lot of talk about the soup flight so we came in to get some and a few more things . We got seated right away and that was very exciting by the young man at the door a few more ppl got seated about 5 or more minutes after us they got they're drinks and appetizers and we are still waiting for someone to come and ask us for anything I locked eyes with the guy who set us down he then came over ask if he can get us something to drink while he gets our waitress which he did. She came over within two minutes and she had walked by us four or five times prior i would think that she knew what table she had but anyway let start with the food Soup, Flight , with broccoli& cheddar, gumbo and Pollo picado they all tasted pretty good, some of them needed hot sauce and salt. Some of them need nothing. 8 out 10 My girlfriend got the ribeye and shrimp .order the ribeye, medium got it well done told the waitress she got it fixed right away but with the wrong steak gave us some thin sliced top sirloin definitely not ribeye so 1 out 10 I ordered the marinade steak with side of banana puddings the steak was over cooked but I did not make a big deal out of it because it still tasted really good and if it would have came out medium it would've been perfect So it gets 8 out 10 I also got chopped sirloin they just need to call it what it is a burger patty with onions on top 1 out 10 The chicken pie was good just added a bit more salt to it 7.5 out 10 For sides we got Mashed potato 6 out 10 Mac and cheese 4 out 10 Corn 3 out 10 Onion rings 8.5 out 10 Greek style fries 8 out 10 We also got the mimosa Flight , and they did not have no more of the boards but all in all great deal, and the peach mimosa was definitely my favorite got the pineapple, strawberry and peach mimosa Flight 10 out 10 Now the only reason they are not getting a 2 star is because even though I waited almost 25 minutes to get acknowledged by anyone after I got seated, the young man at the door and my waitress After knocked it out the park they worked with us may sure my drink was never empty and was very friendly and helpful so the service picked up those extra points for them. Will I be back I can honestly say I don't know it's a big maybe
