I got the murph aletta meal which came with a cookie, potato salad, and sliced orange. I traded my sugar cookie for an oatmeal cream cookie and it was all very delicious. They had a great variety of sandwiches and salads to choose from. The staff were kind and food came out pretty fast! They have meals to go that you can freeze or not for a dinner when you're just not up for cooking. read more

This was a great experience. Such a break from burgers and chicken tenders. We had a #1 (chicken salad wrap) and the #4 (Cashew chicken salad). Both were great. In particular the salad was full of chicken, but more impressive the various greens were "green." No chunks of white, old cobs. Only really fresh lettuce, broccoli, etc. Strongly recommended. I would add a photo, but we cleaned our plates! read more

I had the taco salad lunch special and a piece of asparagus quiche. The asparagus quiche was stacked under the taco salad, so some of the cheese came off. The taco salad wasn't quite what I expected with the bag of taco chips on the side. The salsa with it was delicious and the greens with it were more of those on the healthier side. The apple cake with this special was good. It was more the texture of a brownie with apple slices in it and a cream cheese and walnut icing. Also, they have a drive up window. Inside is tiny and a little chaotic. Maybe an older fast food building converted. They are pretty much meals to go, but have a tiny area inside and outside with wrought iron patio tables/chairs for eating on premises. Lots of food choices. Definitely worth another try. read more

LA Murph is a must try place in Salisbury. Some of my favorites include: Chunky chicken salad, on a croissant, egg salad, fruit salad, oatmeal creme pie cookies (THE BEST), brownies, s'mores cookie and I could go on and on. Not only do they offer great lunch foods, but they also have take home meals and recently added coffee. I recommend the caramel macchiato! They offer inside seating, outside seating AND a drive thru. It doesn't get much better than that. If you're a local, you already know LA Murph's is the best. If you're passing through, make sure to stop in! read more

My wife and I live in an RV full time and are always looking for the local gems. We have been in the area for six months and LA Murph's is our favorite lunch/dessert spot. Everything is great and the customer service is top notch. read more

Tried this restaurant thru Grubhub delivery. So in fairness this might be a review of grubhub. But since they partnered with them... 90 minutes of waiting before NOT getting a message that delivery was "paused". So i call when the update time passed. The customer service was rude and indifferent. The guy said i was being unreasonable. Do im on hold and get a text saying cancelled gor "some" reason. They cancelled the charge to my card, But refused to refund my grubhub plus, so im disputing it thru visa. So i cant recommend this place, or their services. They just dont give a damn. read more

A local gem! Laura and her crew are friendly and helpful. Don't be surprised by the lunch rush so come early or late. If you do have to wait it's well worth it. Fresh food, reasonable prices and a great place to eat in or to go. The daily specials rotate regularly and their soups and quiches are amazing. Their frozen selections are great to have on hand for last minute dinner or to give as gifts. read more

LA Murph's... I love it. They have some of the yummiest pastries in Salisbury. The cream stuffed oatmeal cookies rock and I would have never thought of peanut butter cookies stuffed with peanut butter but they were excellent as well. I had to try the brownies because they are my favorite and they were pretty stellar. I went there on the recommendation of my boss who suggested the Cashew Chicken salad with their homemade honey mustard dressing. The chicken was served cold. I would have preferred it was heated but it was good all the same and for $7.00 you get a brownie and a drink so count me in. This is by no means a very large place, they have bistro outdoor tables on the inside but what I think is cool is they serve a special everyday like Pot Roast or Meat Loaf and they have a drive through. They have family portions so if you find yourself in need of a quick homemade meal it is ideal. If you call ahead they will have your lunch and dinner for the family ready so you never need to get out of the car. Cool! The women in the place are all fabulous and they seemed genuinely happy to serve you. Refreshing!!! read more

They have a great chicken salad and all of the desserts are home made which makes the experience all the better! read more

This is by far the best take-out in the entire town, which should be saying a lot but isn't. Yes, i know I'm cruel to the core. For the most part they have soups, sandwiches and some desserts. They have a few tables to sit at and it's a pleasant atmosphere inside. Like many businesses in Salisbury they roll up the side walk promptly at 6 so be sure to get there with enough time to get your goods if your doing take-out. Again, this is the best qourmet-esque type of food in the area and they have something for just about every palate. I do wish they'd do more specials and switch things up a bit but I think the regulars like counting on L A Murph's having what they like when they walk in. It's a traditional area ... and that's not changing anytime too soon :( . read more

We just had L A Murph's caterer a family reunion/birthday party for us. The food was delicious. It came on time and everyone loved it.

I recently had a bad migraine and couldn't cook dinner so my husband stopped here and got the chicken parm entree to go. All you had to do is throw it in oven for about 30 mins and serve. Unfortunately by the time I woke it up it wasn't hot anymore but it was good. I would only give this part of their service 3 stars because for the price you would think a side of pasta or a plain green salad would come with the chicken. However it was only chicken... it was four pieces, but again for the price four people would have still been hungry without some pasta or salad. I would order an entree from them again IF I was unable to go or go out. However I stand by my 4 star rating of their lunchbox specials. I also recently had their Caesar Salad with Chicken and it was more food than I could eat for lunch and had leftovers for the next day, their croutons are home made and dressing served on side! In general because everything is homemade and the GREAT service I stick by the 4 star rating. read more

Every time I've eaten here, there's been hair in the food. I don't know if it's just a coincidence or what. other people say it's good, and I might just have bad luck, but be warned read more

I have been here a few times and I am never disappointed with the food. Staff is friendly and they have a drive-thru! Try the boxed lunches... and the lemon bars! Would've been 5 stars if they had Wi-Fi. read more

LA Murph's did not give me what I ordered for a work event. Food was low quality, and overpriced for the quantity and quality. The owner refused to listen and did not offer any type of refund. There are so many more caterers in the Salisbury area that have better food and service. Would not recommend at all. read more

I love LA Murphs, and the Ladies that work there. I haven't ever gotten anything bad. Everything I have tried is fantastic. I have bought sides, main dishes, lunch boxes, desserts, specialty breads, you name it. I love the recipes, the convenience, and the atmosphere when I choose to eat inside. Thank goodness I work so close to this place! In fact I am having their Poppy Seed Chicken as I type this. YUM! read more

I was in town for a family funeral and wanted to order food for a luncheon after the service. I ordered a wide variety of the trays (Company Casserole, Tetrazzini, Vegetarian Lasagna, Chicken and Wild Rice, apple cake, cookies, bars, etc). The food was wonderful, the delivery right on time and they could not have been better to deal with. Supporting small local business is so important too! I cannot recommend highly enough!!! read more

Review - LA Murph's Today, I visited LA Murph's in Salisbury NC to purchase a few assorted desserts for a dinner party I am to attend this evening. Anyone who visits LA Murph's can appreciate the pricey nature of both food and desserts. It is quality food packaged nicely. With that said, I have no problem paying for what I want, but I would prefer my experience to be one that is warm and pleasant with appropriate exchanges as in a typical "good customer service" atmosphere. In my past visits to LA Murph's, I have experienced what I would refer to as "snobby" attitudes by some of the staff. I have noticed on multiple occasions that they (the staff) are more accommodating to the customers who appear to be what I would refer to as "regulars". As a Salisbury native, I understand that the more affluent areas of our community may be the only entity that can sustain a small business such as LA Murph's. Therefore, staff may be much more eager to assist these individuals for this reason. It is obvious that this is occurring at LA Murph's. During the time I was attempting to purchase desserts, 3 other customers where assisted ... all of which seemed to have a developed rapport with 2 staff members. While the third staff member was attending to the salad case, she recognized that while she spoke to me, she had not offered to help me. I told her I would like to purchase an assortment of desserts and typically these are placed in a pie box. She retrieved what appeared to be a pound cake box. I told her I didn't need that large box and not to waste it for just a few desserts ... that a smaller box would suffice. She then told me "I don't care what box you want, it ain't my box". At that point, while others watched, she became visibly annoyed and went to exchange the box. Conversation between staff members was suggested that I could not figure out what "damn box she wants". This was uncomfortable to me and another customer who looked at me in disbelief. Needless to say, I left there with no desserts vowing never to return again. read more
