They were fully stocked so I got a few different things to try, including buttermilk, butter, and heavy cream. After eating all these at home, I can confirm that they're absolutely delicious! The flavor and richness and freshness are so much better than anything you get from the grocery store. I've made buttermilk ranch, buttermilk cornbread, and buttermilk waffles - all tasted perfect! This shop is also very cute and welcoming, super clean and well decorated. I didn't find the service to be as friendly as the location in Morehead City, but it was still a bit early in the day so nbd.

Avoid coming here if you can, worst location and service…read more I ordered a small chocolate dipped cone and when handed to me it was covered in napkins. Clearly had been dropped in the chocolate and tried to be salvaged by wiping the cone off - gross. My husband tried to get the attention of someone at the window and they actively ignored him. Finally they came to the window and they hen asked to remake the cone it was nothing but attitude - I should have gotten a picture before handing it back to them. Husband ordered the blizzard of the month, the Oreo Dirt Pile. He received a regular oreo blizzard with 2 gummy worms on top. Clearly a mistake that they just didn't want to remake. The picture and description say chocolate ice cream, and we know they had it today as someone in front of us got a chocolate cone. Not what he ordered. Whoever is running this location needs to pay more attention to their staff and the day to day.

We used to get dipped cones together all the time. Staff was also friendly and helpful not all are these days I traveled about 45 min w the cake safely due to their efforts !!!! I would add this particular local is a smaller one so maybe not a huge group but it's a great place to grab something cold and sweet or get it to go !!!

Planning to go back to an establishment is often in no small part due to the human factor. The other aspect of the draw of this place is the decor. It feels like a place that you go to hang out and drink coffee or tea. Not throwing shade at the other establishments in they Neighbor hood, but they feel very generic in comparison. The dirty Chai Latte was very tasty, flavorful.

Beautiful, jazzy, Art Deco space. They had wonderful cocktails to choose from, cold draft beers, a big wine list, and very interesting food. We felt like just tapas, we got the empanadas and the "naked" egg rolls. We also got one order of smoked mac and cheese. The empanadas were too hard. I wish they were a little softer, but the egg rolls were delicious, and the mac and cheese was shockingly good. Probably the best I ever had. They have these really cool individual rooms that you can rent with friends if you want to make a special night of feeling like you're in a different world back in time. Definitely worth a visit.

We enjoyed the watermelon carpaccio, fried green tomatoes, garden risotto with added shrimp. Everything was very good. The tomato portion was enormous and the beer batter was crispy and light. The risotto? It wasn't really risotto, it was more like a creamy rice but it was delicious. And those shrimp were big, juicy and tasted like they just came out of the sea. The watermelon, though, was a shocker. It was grilled! It had a really great smoky flavor that was totally unexpected and the dressing was light and fresh.

The vibe in the restaurant is casual and the decor minimalist. We were immediately greeted with genuine warmth and friendliness. We sat at a window with a view and enjoyed our Brussels sprouts appetizer. Not only was it hot, crisp and flavorful but plenty of food for three adults to share. Mains were fantastic-- roasted beet salad was refreshing on a super hot day, fish tacos could easily have fed two. Crispy fish, slaw and tortillas were perfection. I had a chipotle burger which was the best burger I had enjoyed in ages. Service was professional and friendly. Can't say enough good things about the spot. Wish I lived closer so I could try more of the menu.

Our server Ridley, came to the table promptly, answered our questions and took our orders. Our drinks came quickly and were always full. The food arrived soon after our orders were placed. The presentation of our meals was terrific. Three diners in our party ordered the Fish Tacos and one got the Fish and Chips. It would be an understatement to say the servings were seriously generous. The fish & chips came 3 large fried fish filets and a heaping of seasoned fries. The taco orders each had 3 full vs mini sized soft tacos overflowing with fish filets...the fish was legit spilling out over both ends of the tacos! The fish was lightly battered, nicely seasoned and fried to perfection. The quantity of the food was so generous, only one of us could finish our meal!! On our way out, we stopped and spoke with the manager Kelsey. She is the spirit behind the "the new and improved" Persimmon's ethos. She took no credit for the changes or improvements and instead placed our exemplary experience squarely at the feet of her employees! It's obvious she's a wonderful, caring leader of the Persimmon's team. Cheers to Kelsey, Ridley and the Persimmon's crew!

Very nice place kind of tucked away on the water side of The NC History Center at Tryon Palace. From the large parking area you can enter through the History Center or walk toward the water and enter through the main entrance of the restaurant. We entered through the main entrance and were greeted upon entering. As you enter there is plenty of seating around the inside, outside, and some seating at the bar. We were seated near the History Center entrance adjacent to the restroom entryway. Very large windows provide plenty of lighting and views of the water and surrounding area. Our server promptly arrived and took our beverage order as well as provided the specials for the day. A few minutes later she returned with our drinks and took our orders. We ordered the turkey club with coleslaw and the special, cheesesteak with smashed tots. Our meals arrived after a short wait. They looked really good. The portions were a good size and were well prepared. We both agreed everything was delicious! The coleslaw had great texture and the right amount of seasoning. The turkey club delivered everything you would expect. The smashed tots were an interesting version of tots, but were good. For me the highlight was the cheesesteak. I had mushrooms and jalapenos added to the already loaded sandwich and it was amazing. The overall experience was great. We will definitely return here again and highly recommend giving Lawson's On The Creek a try.
