The service was so rude that we walkedout before we even got sat. We were told that we could not be sat on the patio because it was wet and no one could dry it off. We said we didn’t mind we were then told it was closed. She asked if we would would like to be put on the list and when we asked how longit would be she rolled her eyes and saidshe didn’t know. With that kind of service I didn’t want to eat there.
Not terribly impressed. I had the blackened chicken sandwich. There was no taste of spices at all, it just tasted burned. The fries were the thin fries, much like Steak and Shake fries, not really what I was expecting. The decor is nice.
Yes. One of the best restaurants in Greensboro. Food is excellent, service is great, and sitting outside on the patio is where it’s at! Definitely recommend this place!
We had an absolutely horrible experience today. Lauren was extremely rude, upcharges were abuntant, including $2 to sub egg whites. The manager came to address an overcooked steak at the table, and was just as rude, telling us that our pinkless steak was a true medium. We will never be back. If you’re thinking about it, especially for brunch, choose village tavern, green valley grill or print works bistros.
Funky & Fun. This place is somewhat different than I had imagined it. It is charmingly funky, a little small, with as much seating outside as in. It is part neighborohood bar, part coffee house, part bistro, part wine bar. The patio is nicely done, and obviously popular. The inside has room for a small bar area, and maybe 12 to 15 tables. The ambience reminds me of a combination of the original setups of two venerable, local restaurants – the departed Sunset Cafe & the remade Southern Lights – each better where thay started than where they ended up.The menu here is not broad, and not all the items on the online menu are offered everyday, or even on a regularly scheduled basis – the Prime Rib entree and the Potato Cake app, for example – my very intended choices. Not sure how you are to know when they will have Prime Rib – maybe it is one of those Tweet things They have daily specials, a Cuban Sandwich, several pizza choices, mussels, a French Bar Steak, Beef Bourguignon, a Cafe Burger, Spanakopita, and Steak & Frites. The daily special on Monday is Lamb Stew (cooked in a white wine sauce. or rather gravy), and since it was Monday, and I felt the need to be special, I tried it. Out-Damn-Standing. The stew is rich in flavor, the vegetables are cooked well, but not to the point of mush – they had residual texture with great flavor. It was served with a very nice, crunchy baguette – you can dip it all day in the stew and its thick, brown gravy – perfect. The baguette was accompanied by two tin-foil wrapped pats of European style butter – another nice touch.The other entree we tried was Mussels Fra Diavlo. These were nice and creamy, with a very, very nice layer of heat that built throughout. We also tried the House Salad with a nice Blue Cheese dressing. The candied walnuts and the roasted red peppers were a good fit.The wine list is relatively small, and very well may be the least expensive overall of any restaurant in Greensboro not offering Boone’s Farm as a vino choice. Seems like the most expensive was $27, and it was a nice choice actually. Wine is half priced on Wednesday, and it can be a bit of a zo – wait staff confirmed..This is a neat, fun place for a laid back dinner, al fresco or otherwise. It definitely has the properties to be quite noisy when crowded, so I would not consider it for a special destination place, but it can be enjoyable. The wait staff is attentive and knowledgable. For what it offers, it is one of the best in the downtown area, and without the attendant parking considerations.
Normally LOVE this place and tell friends and take out of town visitors there… Tonight’s service was unusually sub par
Patio with ambiance. We sat outside on the patio for dinner last night. I really enjoyed the outdoor seating, which can be hard to find downtown. The Ensalada del Mar was good (I got it with the blackened salmon). Our server was attentive and friendly. I’ll be back!
