I honestly just sat there enjoying this Country fried chicken Spud. It was one of those meals that makes you slow down because it's that good. It was filling, had plenty on it, and I'd order it again without even looking at the menu. Although it says Goody's grill, but their sign says Goody's grill home of the spud. I like that they have a variety of different baked potatoes. It's a baked potato on steroids. read more

Goody's Grill - Philly cheese steak spud. Delicious!! - Diners Near Me - Winston-Salem, North Carolina

Honestly they have one of the best sandwiches in Winston Salem. I always get the Chicken Philly and add mushrooms. It's a big portion so it's enough for two meals. It's so delicious! It's my go to if I'm craving a spectacular sandwich. Service has always been fast and the price point is affordable as well. The restaurant itself is nothing fancy but who cares about that when you're eating a fabtabulous sandwich! read more

Was running a couple errands in Winston and this place had been recommended to me more than once. Parking lot was pretty busy at lunchtime which is a good sign. Goody's is well-lit, clean and inviting. You order at the counter and then take a number to where you want to sit. They bring you your food. They have a pretty extensive menu but are known for their baked potatoes and plethora of variations of topping for those potatoes. The people behind the counter were friendly and helpful answering questions. My daughter ordered Buffalo chicken baked potato and I opted for the loaded cheesesteak. We split fry and each got a drink. It didn't take long for our food to be brought to us. The baked potato was HUGE and loaded with butter, cheese and chicken with hot sauce. Ranch and sour cream were on the side. My cheesesteak was loaded into a sub roll. Beef, cheese, onions, peppers and mushroom. The sun had some real weight to it lol. The fries were shoestring and were fine. My daughter LOVED her baked potato. It was way too much for her to eat and ended up taking 1/2 of it home with her. My cheesesteak was EXCELLENT. Great flavor and plenty of food. All being said, it was $32 including a 12% counter tip. The food was excellent and plentiful. The staff friendly and helpful. Check them out online. They have a large menu, surely something for everyone. We will be back. read more

How have I never been here before? Stopped in for lunch last week around 11:30 and ordered the bacon potato with a side salad. It arrived super quickly and the dining room was spacious and clean. Food was delicious! The potato was enough for my daughter and I to eat on it, and have leftovers. They definitely got busy around noon but were a well oiled machine getting food out quickly. read more

Still simple but tasty food for a good price. Still very pedestrian in its appearance, layout and decor -- which is fine for a venue of this sort. Still staffed by kind, hardworking folks. Hard to ask for more when looking for a filling meal at a bargain. My latest selection was the Philly steak and cheese spud, and in Goody's fashion that order yields a plate-filling potato topped with meat, onions, peppers, melted cheddar and butter. The mass of food is not something a cardiologist would be happy about, but it's delicious all the same. read more

Stopped in tonight to get a bite to eat and we were impressed. I got the chicken souvlaki plate and my husband got the gyro plate. Came with Greek salad, meat, pita wedges, fries and two onion rings. So good! I had already eaten part of my salad (and chopped it up), but the picture gives an idea. So much for right at $12. We will for sure be back more often. read more

Goody's Grill - Chicken Souvlaki Platter - Diners Near Me - Winston-Salem, North Carolina

4.5 stars overall, but the cleanliness of the place, decent prices, and super friendly staff behind the counter put it up to the full 5 for me. We got 2 kids meals and 2 different loaded spuds as well as an order of onion rings. Plenty of food all for $50. It's counter service and also a drive thru, but we stayed and ate inside. The interior looks like an old school 90's fast food restaurant setup. As I understand it, it used to be a Hardee's back in the day, so that tracks. A little outdated but still mostly clean and not without its charm. The vent covers need a good cleaning though! Best thing I got was probably the chicken and gravy spud. Every bite was nicely coated pretty evenly in some kind of at least one of the several toppings. The Philly was good too but there were some bites that were just dry potato. The chicken in the kids tendies was impressively nice quality as well. I wouldn't bother with the kids spaghetti. I liked the onion rings, and all of their sauces are claimed to be made on site too! That's a nice touch, and they were good quality. I would return and try more items because the menu is enormous! Interested to try a burger next time too because they may be smaller but the price reflects. read more

It's a small average grill with average food choices. Good for a quick lunch or outing.

This small place seems somehow to fly under the radar, perhaps due to its location. There are only 46 Yelp reviews over 26 years, 12 of those are by Yelp Elites! It is family owned and operated, and the family started in the restaurant business in 1927. The family opened Austin's Bar and Grill in High Point in 1992, and this spot in 1998! On this visit, my second here, I came to try their Fried Chicken Sandwich ($6.13), and a Hot Dog ($4.05), and as before I chose to go through the drive thru.The order was out in good time, mine was the only vehicle in the line, and I was off. The chicken sandwich did not contain a filet but rather 2 fried tenders! While a bit unusual, I've seen it before, the most recent at Smithfield Chicken & BBQ, and that was a very large, very good sandwich. Unfortunately, the sandwich here was not a good one. The tenders were well sized, well fried, but lacked any flavor, totally bland. This is not an item I'd order again. Nor is the hot dog - it was loaded with very strong smelling and tasting chopped onions. Even when I removed most of the onions, this was just not a good dog. My 2 visits here resulted in 2 very different experiences, and even though the last one was not good, I'll try again with other items in the rather broad menu - multiple spud options, gyro and souvlaki choices, and more burger options!

HUGE potatoes- enough to make two meals! Friendly, fast, clean, easy! Lots of yummy desserts too!

I have been trying to find a place that has good classic southern biscuits that seem freshly made in Winston for a while now! I decided to give Goody's a shot after seeing some pictures on instagram. Immediately upon entering the place was quaint and somewhat dated with what felt like early 2000s era decorations of a fast food restaurant. There was a "sunroom" area similar to the old style Wendy's. At the counter a nice young lady warmly greeted us, answered our questions and took our order. I opted for the tenderloin special with scrambled eggs, hashbrowns, and a biscuit. The food came out quickly and was hot! The woman at the counter generously brought us our food straight to the table and picked us up some silverware, ketchup, and jelly. As far as taste. The hashbrowns were well seasoned and delicious. The eggs were fresh and well cooked. The tenderloin I placed onto the biscuit and found them both to be delicious. The tenderloin was a good portion and the biscuit was exactly what I had been looking for! The best part! Their prices are fantastic and can compete with or even beat everyone else in town! I will definitely be back! read more

We stopped in late Saturday morning while in the area. Goody's is located one or two blocks off Stratford Road and from the outside looks like it was once a Wendy's or some other fast food place. We were immediately greeted upon walking in and the menu boards are hanging from the wall much like in a fast food place. We confirmed they offer their entire menu with both breakfast and lunch options all day. The menu consists of a smaller number of breakfast items and a larger number of various subs and wraps, sandwiches and pitas, burgers, chicken, Greek platters, salads, pastas and their legendary baked potatoes aka spuds on their menu. The young lady who took our order was friendly and efficient and the prices are very reasonable. She provided us with a number to take to our table and told us our order would be delivered. We sat down at one of the many indoor tables and noted they also have a large patio area for when the weather is nice. We also noticed the young woman who took our order was busy cleaning when she wasn't at the register. The entire place felt very clean and well cared for. Our meals arrived and looked great! My wife ordered the chicken souvlaki platter which came with a side salad, chicken and tzatziki, fries and two onion rings. I ordered the Philly steak and cheese sandwich with fries. The servings were large and piping hot. My wife really enjoyed the grilled chicken with tzatziki and her side salad and gave the fries and onion rings to me. Lucky me! I really enjoyed my food as well and we both agreed Goody's is somewhere we will absolutely come again. They have a great thing going! read more

Stopped in to get breakfast in the drive thru. Ordered 2 $4.50 chicken biscuits. The actual biscuits were good, but the chicken was one (1) tenderloin bent in half on the biscuit. read more

WOW! Finally tried Goody's and I've been sleeping on these spuds. First off, it's HUGE! I've already eaten off of it twice and have more left. The flavor is delicious. Second, they have such a variety of items on the menu. I'm eyeing the Greek chicken salad soon. I ordered ahead and went through the drive through to pick up. read more

Nice , quick super casual stop for lunch here. This is one well run ship, they have their act together. Great varied menu, pasta, breakfast all day, Greek specialties, salads, sandwiches, and their famous spuds! Lots of seating inside and outside. Quick service. I got the grilled chicken pita, packed with nicely marinated chicken. Lots of veggies and great tzaziki. My friend had the burger with fries. Which I grabbed some of her fries and those were nice and crispy. Her burger had all the fixings and was a good burger. This place is clean inside and food is good. Not sure why I hadn't stepped foot in here before, but glad to have discovered . Must try the spuds which they are known for next time! read more

Home of the giant spud...sometimes. The size of the potatoes vary quite a bit...sometimes they are huge as advertised and sometimes they are not that big. Good variety of menu choices. Friendly, attentive customer service. Discount on cash orders. Clean open dinning room. read more

Food was tasteless. Two thin pieces of bacon. Two small pancakes. Very few had browns, two eggs scrambled look like one. Overpriced! Girl at counter had no personality. Won't go back! Also sticky floors read more

Best and biggest baked potatoes in town. We've enjoyed many over the last few years, always hot and delicious and enough for two meals. Friendly service and they always get our takeout orders right. The restaurant itself has lots of natural light (it's an old Hardee's so big windows all around) and is a basic diner with booths and tables. Highly recommend! read more

I have seen this place packed with cars, a line in the drive through on various occasions-but somehow we were fortunate enough to get here when it was basically empty. It was our first time so we went simple a potato ole and cheesesteak sandwich. I was in the mood for some comfort food and decided we can throw calories to the wind and really wanted a chili baked potato the spud ole was a great option mixing chili cheese green pepper and a side of salsa. It was a very large potato so I took half to go. The restaurant itself is definitely casual. Order at the counter and they give a number to find you when the food is ready. Staff was very friendly. They have a good size menu but I feel like I would just go through the potato menu lol. Decently priced for large portions of comfort food. read more

I'm sorry guys,..I've bragged on your homemade SC chili for a while and I sent my friend over to get a hotdog with the chili and onion mustard no slaw, too much grease you need to start draining the chili before you put it on hot dog I'm afraid it was a disappointment to my friend hope you do better next time. read more

I love this place, but today it was 76 degrees inside. I will not eat and sweat. Maybe A/C was out. I hated to walkout, but due to the medication I'm on I can't take the heat. Again, this is a great place to eat and we love the food. We will go back. After it cools off. read more

I found baked potato heaven at Goody's. Huge potatoes that are extremely soft and generous toppings. Im an eater and this easily made 2 large meals for me- and for most people they'd make three and even four! The prices were reasonable, too. They have outdoor tables and service was fast at the window and Drive-thru. You can also phone your order ahead. Staff was extremely likable- mentioned how they were finally getting noticed due to their Spuds being featured on IG. Do yourself a favor and get you a Spud! read more

This secret gem is an absolute must, its not a "fancy smanchy" place, but enough desent size to eat inside and also have a drive thru, This was my first time trying them, and I lived by them for years and I can't believe I've never tried them before!! they were not KIDDING when they said they were home of the Spuds! I wanted to try the Philly steak spud and my God, as you can see it was loaded with shredded steak, peppers, butter and super cheesy, I added some ranch to set it off! and a side of some thick mozzarella sticks, wow! This will definitely be on my list of favorite food spots in WSNC ! Check out their menu though, they do have a large variety of things on their menu!! I heard their pasta plates are BOMB too! read more

This place is everything you want, and nothing you don't. This place is a hidden gem in Winston-Salem. You won't be blown away by their interior decorating, but when they serve you a baked potato the size of a T-Rex egg smothered in cheese and butter you really won't care. The prices are reasonable, the portions are huge and everything seems made in house. There is nothing like it in Winston and have created a new craving for my fiancée and I. read more

Goody's Grill - Philly Cheesesteak baked potato - Diners Near Me - Winston-Salem, North Carolina

Goodys is really a hidden gem in Winston Salem. It's a local family owned restaurant with several great choices. The customer service is always superb. They have massive fully loaded baked potatoes with the best topping. Chicken, steak, broccoli etc. Their famous spuds are enough for two meals. They have fresh chicken tenders which are the best I've had in the city. Their souvlaki pitas with the tzatziki sauce are amazing. The pita bread is soooo fresh. The tzatziki sauce is so rich and bursting with flavor. The prices also can't be beat. For a special treat get one of their hand spun milk shakes! I promise you can not go wrong with goodys. I have never had a bad meal here. read more

Only have tried it one time but wasn't a great experience. Food was very mid not much flavor and only one little baby cup of syrup for a stack of pancakes is crazy. Service was not very good.

Searched Yelp for some thing and this little place was on my list of suggestions. Oh my...so glad we decided to check it out! I brought my mom here for my birthday dinner, she loves baked potatoes (well, any kind of potatoes) and I thought "why not" ‍ Took us a few minutes to decide on a potato (we wanted to split one) and we also got a small order of onion rings. Grilled Chicken potato...chicken, cheese, sour cream, butter = everything a girl and her mom could ask for? The restaurant was very clean, bright interior, real plates and silverware (not paper lined baskets and plastic utensils like so many) which was nice especially having a knife to cut the potato The man sitting near us suggested we try the breakfast items next time we come (I saw his plate and it was a lot of food)! I will definitely be back. Wasn't busy at all on 11:30 on a Friday...hopefully they do more business regularly than I was seeing. read more

Great spuds! My only complaint is they don't have chives or green onions and you can't tell what's on each spud unless you go inside and it's posted on the counter. So calling in an order is a shot in the dark SO I'm posting a picture of the counter menu! read more
