I loved the King's Crab Shack in downtown (long closed), so I had high hopes for this location…read more Service was okay. Our waitress was a little slow that day, and the place wasn't very busy. Location is nice. Large amount of indoor seating. Nice large bar area. Place was clean. Very nice drink menu with craft cocktails. I wasn't able to partake since it was lunch. I got the lunch special which was a shrimp boil. It was okay (photo posted). Nothing to write home about. A few shrimp, potatoes, corn and some sausage. I would order something else next time. I'll return but my first visit to this location was underwhelming. Hopefully my next visit will be better.

As always, a fantastic experience from start to finish. We were seated inside, with a view of a…read moregorgeous fireplace and chandelier. We came at an unusual time -about 2:30pm- so we didn't have a wait, but they are usually pretty packed so keep that in mind if you come during peak hours. Our waitress, Stephanie, was one of the best waitresses I've ever had. She was ready with details and suggestions about the menu and gave us extra reassurance about their produce, due to the current outbreak going on. Our spring roll appetizer came with three delicious sauces and everything about them was perfection. For entrees, my husband had the Maryland crab cake and I had shrimp Hemingway. WOW. I tried a bite of the crab cake, and it's by far the best I've ever had. So fresh, and truly full of real crab, not just breadcrumbs and extras. My dish was wonderful, great size portion, and flavor was spot on. My only complaint was that it wasn't very hot, but it was still slightly warm. The dessert menu tempted us too much to resist and I have no regrets. The warm butter cake served with fruit and ice cream, and a sugary crust, was just phenomenal. I also ended my meal with a tavern cappuccino and it did not disappoint. If you're looking for a guaranteed positive experience, top tier food and service, look no further. They are doing everything right here. Village Tavern will never let you down.

I'm never disappointed when I visit Ms. Virginia and her friendly staff ar Forsyth Seafood Market…read moreand Cafe. Since I moved to Greensboro, I take every opportunity I can to stop in while visiting Winston-Salem to place an order just before hitting the road back home. On this day, the cafe was busier than I had ever seen it. There was a conference happening at Wake Forest University, and many of the attendees had selected Forsyth Seafood as their dinner (without calling ahead, I assume). The self-seating cafe is large and adorned with several tables and chairs, so it was well-equipped to accommodate the large group, plus other guests that was there to eat. In stellar fashion, the kitchen staff was taking and getting orders out to the cafe and their usual takeout patrons quickly. I ordered a 5-piece Catfish, an order of hushpuppies, and a small coleslaw via their website, and had less than 10 min. wait for my order, after they recooked my order (it had mistakenly been held too long when they didn't realize I was in the parking lot, due to the large group, not a normal occurrence). One tip that Ms. Virginia (the owner) gave me for longer road trips (over 40 mins.) was to, instead of ordering a pickup online, order at the counter, and then the fish will be fried and hot (instead of fried and sitting waiting on me to pick it up), which makes it even fresher by the time I get home. As usual, I arrived in Greensboro with 3.5 pieces of fish and 1/2 an order of hush puppies because I can never resist putting my fingers in the box and eating some (despite burning my fingers lol). My entire order was delicious, and I had enough for a second meal the next day. As a successful, family-owned and operated business, Forsyth Seafood Market & Cafe has been feeding generations of families delicious food for years. In addition, it has been a willing contributor in the Winston-Salem, NC, community for years. However, what speaks the loudest to me is its commitment to remaining in the community and maintaining a quality product and service. Forsyth Seafood Market & Cafe is definitely Kiesha Speech-approved. I recommend trying the whiting filets or the catfish filets, with some hushpuppies (or white bread, if that's your preference) and coleslaw. Don't forget the hometown original: Texas Pete hot sauce! ;)

My husband would give this place 4 stars; however, I feel a little differently. One thing I really…read moreliked is that you can select your seafood fresh before placing your order. It's definitely a local favorite. The restaurant appeared clean and sanitized, though the lobby could use some improvement to create a better dine-in experience. Your wait time depends on how busy they are, so I recommend calling ahead, especially during peak hours. The pricing is reasonable, and there are plenty of combo options to choose from. As for our order, the sides were hit or miss. I wouldn't recommend the gumbo, but the greens and sweet potato were good. We chose fried options, but non-fried selections are available as well.

The place is nice and the hostess sat us promptly. Very nice table set up and well-lit. I hope you like to read because the menu is HUGE. And this is just the dinner menu. They are also open for breakfast and lunch. Too much food to mention. I ordered the 10oz prime rib with baked potato and broccoli. Rolls came to the table and they were ok. Nothing special. Food came in a timely manner. The prime rib was cooked appropriately. Came with au jus but alas, no horseradish. Potato came with plenty of butter and sour cream. Prime rib was good, unremarkable as well as the potato and broccoli. The food was ok. $26 for the prime rib. I got the impression that this place caters to the, let's say, retired crowd. It just had that feel. Our server was very good. 10/10 for service. And the food was ok. But I don't think I'd come back. There are so many restaurants out there to try to come back to average food. Overall, 6/10.

I went with fruit and the parmesan garlic mashed potatoes. The potatoes were yummy. The ribs were mid. In some places they were very tender but other places hard and over cooked. I'm glad they were on sale and not full priced. Wished I had ordered the flounder sandwich. The portions sizes are also small. I wouldn't order this again. The best thing during the meal was the complimentary bread. The first loaf was hard to cut but the second one came out steaming hot. The staff were very friendly. The hostess greeted us with a smile and got us seated with our menus. Our waitress was attentive but slow. It took a while to get everything but she kept checking on our table.

While in Winston-Salem for business meetings, we decided to venture over to the west side of town…read moreto try Milner's American Southern, and we are so glad we did. Although it's tucked away in an unassuming business district, this restaurant is truly a hidden gem. From the moment we walked in, we were impressed by the warm, inviting space and exceptional service. Everyone made us feel welcome, and the attention to detail throughout our meal was outstanding. We started with the Ahi Tuna appetizer, which was absolutely delicious. It was served over a bed of crisp sliced cucumbers and the most amazing vinegar coleslaw. The combination of flavors was fresh, light, and memorable. Even the warm dinner rolls were outstanding and set the tone for the meal. For our entrées, the meatloaf was everything comfort food should be. It was tender, juicy, and perfectly seasoned, served over creamy mashed potatoes with fresh French green beans. We also ordered the Chef's seasonal Squash Casserole, and it was phenomenal. If it's on the menu when you visit, don't miss it. Milner's way exceeded our expectations: wonderful food, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere made for a memorable evening. We will absolutely make the trip back the next time we're in Winston-Salem.

For a birthday dinner, I love a good steakhouse but wanted to try something new away from my usual…read morespots, and my wife suggested Spotted Cow. When we first walked in, it was busy and we heard the hostess tell the couple in front of us they would need to wait over an hour for a table - Lucky for me my wife made reservations and we were seated immediately! It was a bit on the noisy side but not so bad we couldn't have a conversation. Our servers, Thomas, was fantastic start to finish with good recommendations, attentive service without being overbearing, and a great personality. Good staff make a business shine! We started with glasses of wine and were impressed with how generous they poured. Perhaps it was a visual illusion, but they felt like very large glasses of wine and made it feel like a very good value. They have a good selection of wines to choose from along with a full bar. Appetizer was the Crab Cake Egg Rolls, something I don't think I've seen anywhere else. They're cooked in Beef Tallow which gave a very savory flavor and crispy texture. They were a bit on the oily side but overall flavor was delicious, and I really liked the dipping sauce which was like a very herb-heavy tartar sauce. For entrees, my wife had the Filet and I had a New York Strip. I don't have the words to describe how delicious and perfectly prepared both of these were. I didn't even bother asking for steak sauce because the perfectly tender and seasoned steak didn't need it. Nobody wants to pay high prices for a steak and receive something low quality, and I was thrilled with the quality of the steaks here. Surrounding tables likewise had great looking meals and I overheard them voicing pleasure too. As sides go, the baked potatoes and salads were excellent too. I got the hot bacon vinegarette dressing and was surprised it was actually served quite hot. It had a really rich and slightly tangy flavor that was unique and I really enjoyed on my salad. I have no complaints here and will absolutely be back. Of course it's on the pricey end, but this is the type of establishment you reserve for a special night out, not your average Tuesday night. Give it a try and you won't be disappointed!

To be fair none of us ordered steak... at a steakhouse, so that could have been our issue. Our server was really friendly and attentive.

Don't leave without ordering the cream corn. Just trust us.
