    Look at the grease oozing out of the fry. And the grease deposit left after just 3 minutes on napkin.
    Karl K.

    In their window, the Circle Drive In displays a framed certificate claiming that they have the best hot dog in Rockingham County. They don't. A certificate they DO deserve is one for greasiest fries in the Greater Piedmont Triad. And beyond. Possibly the world. See my photos if you don't believe me. The hot dog (pink) is average and bland as are the all the way toppings. The burger had a decent taste and crisp toppings, but it appeared to have been cooked hours earlier and it was a little dry and dense. Sweet tea was average. Also, be aware that this is a true drive-in-- no table service. And while it was a very hot day, my server did not seem exactly thrilled to be there-- not even when I gave her a thirty percent tip. So I would steer clear of this drive in. By the way, the best hot dog in Rockingham County and beyond (in my opinion) can be found in Johnson's Family Grill in Madison.

    And the front.

    What a night. It totally came together in a fluke. We had planned on going to Greensboro and I…read moreremembered, wait, the ridge! We quickly got a reservation for our table of 7 and I was praying it was tasty. You walk in and the smell hits you like a load. It smells incredible! The weekend is a grilling event and they do prime rib, ribeye, salmon, chicken, etc. We had the ribeye, salmon, and prime rib and with that garlic butter.... Wow. Delicious absolutely delicious. The salad and potato bar are perfect. Make your own, exactly how you want it! No waste. I enjoyed a piece of the banana pudding cheesecake for dessert when I got home and needless to say, amazing. It's just a simple place. It reminds me of a childhood steakhouse. We will most definitely be there again this month!

    I've been following them since they opened in May, and now that they started serving…read moreFriday-Saturday dinners, we were able to pay a visit. Choices of the day (Friday night, 4/5) were Famous Pot Roast, Bacon Herb Baked Chicken, loaded Mac and cheese, bacon braised Brussels, Broccoli casserole, Sriracha sweet potatoes, and the usual salad accompaniments. They did not disappoint. The pot roast was as tender a flavorful as any I've had, with a few potatoes and carrots in a gravy. The chicken was also very tender (all dark meat, that I saw, and prefer) and juicy, with a nice blend of seasonings. I even tried the broccoli casserole, even though I don't care much for the vegetable, and it was pretty tasty! My girlfriend loved the Sriracha sweet potatoes, and went back for seconds. As I prefer sweet potatoes more on the savory side, I also enjoyed them. I wasn't brave enough for the Brussel sprouts, however. The regular salad side had options of Romaine, or a tender greens mix, with many of the usual toppings and six dressing choices. My lemonade was spot-on, and Barb's half-and-half tea was also tasty. They also have Pepsi products available. We will definitely be watching their Facebook page for future weekend selections, as the menu changes daily/weekly.

    Wanted a gd breakfast spot and this place was recommended to me…read more The outdoor and indoor decor is nothing fancy whatsoever. Upon entering, I realized how tiny the breakfast "buffet" was, but decided to step out on faith LOL and try it anyway. Mainly retirees and elderly people seem to frequent this establishment. Items on the buffet: a very small fruit bar on one side with cottage cheese, melon, pineapple and grapes I believe. A very small hot food bar on the left with ham, bacon, hot dogs, bologna, grits, eggs, cheese sauce for the eggs, sausage, French toast sticks, mini pancakes, fried potatoes, sausage/peppers/onions. Pros You do get a little variety of everything I suppose Excellent wait staff - very friendly and sweet Easy to get to Ample parking Cons Buffet was too small despite having so many items Price of $15 ....not worth it. Should be priced at $6 to $8. The food tasted subpar.You can make better breakfast @ home, in my opinion. Cheese sauce was disgusting...inedible

Usually you get thinly sliced beef from the roast with a brown gravy with your veggies. Won't get it again. Speedy's Diner pot roast is much much better. Back to them.

    Housed at the end of a highway strip mall outside of Danville, Rustic Barn is neither rustic nor a…read morebarn. It is, improbably, a fantastic Asian fusion restaurant. Yes, you read that right. The idiosyncrasies do not stop with the name. Inside, The Rustic Barn offers an intimate space with low lighting and some interesting décor: random photos of locomotives adorn the wall. The menu skews Thai albeit with some Japanese dishes (gyoza, teriyaki, yaki udon) and a few (a burger, a steak and potatoes) that fit the establishment's rurally suggestive name. The proprietor, Jeb, is gracious and accommodating as well as a showman who likes to joke with his guests. His promise of "everything fresh, everything homemade" is a lot to live up to, but the kitchen here has the chops to deliver on that promise. Our group went with a pair of starters (crab rangoons and gyoza), a pair of curries (roadhouse and green), and a pair of noodle dishes (yaki udon and pad Thai). Everything was attractively plated and delicious. The rangoons were hand-formed into delicate shapes and contained plenty of filling while the gyoza were nice and crisp. My entrée was the roadhouse curry: the house version of Massaman. A hearty dish, it boasted thick-cut vegetables and a rich sauce done to the desired (a little bit spicy) level of heat. Prices are moderate (entrees start in the upper teens), but portions are plenty filling. Given how many Danville restaurants were closed on a Sunday evening, I count myself lucky that The Rustic Barn was not among them. If you come here seeking country cooking, you'll be confused and perhaps disappointed. But if you know what you're getting yourself into, the combination of personable service and tasty food in an offbeat location makes this the epitome of a hidden gem.
