Today is my Birthday and my daughter surprised me with a lovely experience at Earl's Landing. We…read morewere greeted warmly and seated promptly for our 5:00 pm reservation. Our waitress Megan was extremely personable, attentive, and professional. While there was a bit of a hiccup with the dinner service, the customer service was by far the best I've experienced. The on duty manager was apologetic and made sure we were taken care of. Our waitress was also apologetic and continued to check on us our entire stay. The dining area was both elegant and matched the vibe of the music and the staff. The food was delicious and the portion sizes were generous. Overall the customer service experience was top notch. It's not about getting everything right 100% of the time, sometimes it's about how you recover when mishaps occur. Excellent recovery tonight! Bravo!

Magnolia Blue was one of my favorite High Point eateries. Whether I went for weekend brunch or New…read moreYear's Eve dinner, I never had a bad meal there. It closed in early February for what were supposed to be renovations, only to reopen months later with a new name and a new concept, trading slightly upscale Southern for more upscale Italian. In some regards, this makes sense - it fills a void created by the closure of Lulu and Blu - but in other ways, it's a massive gamble. My wife and I went for our anniversary dinner, and while it was an overall pleasant experience, it also made us miss Magnolia. The higher price point is the chief culprit. Otto and Blue offers pastas in the $20s and entrees starting in the $30s, bread and olive oil not included. While we were celebrating an occasion that merited such a splurge, it's hard to imagine the restaurant remaining competitive at those prices once the sheen of newness wears off. Look past that, however, and Otto and Blue shines in both ambiance and service. It's classy without being stuffy, and the dark turquoise tones suit it well. Allison, a Magnolia Blue mainstay, was personable and attentive and provided excellent service throughout the meal. Otto and Blue's menu offers apps, salads, pastas, and entrees. It's predominantly Italian albeit with a few options for the steak-and-potatoes crowd. The dishes range from recognizably classic (rigatoni Bolognese) to conspicuously elevated (halibut piccatta). After mulling over several offerings, we went with the bread service, tagliatelle, and duck cacciatore. The food ranged from fairly good to outstanding. While $9 for bread is a tough pill to swallow, they executed it as well as they possibly could have: a hot, fresh ciabatta with tasty herb butter, olive relish, and a quality olive oil-balsamic combo as accompaniments. The cacciatore boasted a pair of duck legs confit, and while I'm usually no fan of dark meat poultry, these were prepared well with crispy skin and plenty of meat. For a typically hearty dish, the sauce seemed light (and a bit subdued), but that could be a consequence of serving atop polenta (more absorbent) rather than pasta. Speaking of pastas and sauces, the tagliatelle hit a nice balance of creamy and zesty without swimming in its white wine lemon sauce. Surprisingly, the highlight of the meal ended up being the dessert that Otto and Blue kindly offered as an anniversary gift. A scoop of vanilla bean gelato came adorned with a Biscoff cookie, a drizzle of olive oil, and a dash of salt. If salt and especially olive oil on ice cream seem vaguely blasphemous, don't knock it until you try it. Each bite was thoroughly delicious. It's a given that good food doesn't come cheap, but even so, Otto and Blue has no margin for error to justify what it charges. On food alone, it was close but not quite there. However, the overall experience made it worthwhile, and I have no regrets about dining here.

We were huge, huge fans of Sammy G's previously and generally speaking everything is roughly the…read moresame but there have been some changes that really lower the review for me. I don't know if the ownership has changed or if they just made some decisions to alter things, but either way it changes our opinion of the place. First and most important for us, they used to be the only place we were aware of in NC to get Gluten Free Crab Cakes which was a major reason we frequented Sammy G's. That has apparently changed and the new Gluten Free menu is basically just the meats menu which is a real shame. It looks like they have made some other small changes to the regular menu as well, none of those were all that concerning but the loss of this GF treat is a real blow for us. If you are a celiac and found reviews about the GF crab cakes, please be aware they appear to be gone now. Additionally, the prices across the menu seem to have gone up by a few dollars. When you consider that Sammy G's was never a cheap place to eat, and given the state of the economy these days, that actually does come out to a noticeable change and makes it harder to justify going. However, with the loss of the old GF options, it's unlikely we'll come back anywhere near as often as we used to.

When Blue Water Grille was proposed as a location for a work-related dinner gathering, I had never…read moreheard of it and was unaware we had such a quality establishment so close to downtown. It's hidden away off the main stretch, but easy to get to with parking on-site. When we arrived at 5pm, the restaurant was fairly empty and they were already set up and waiting for our group reservation. We were greeted by Freya, who had a great personality and provided fantastic service all evening while we were there. Can't speak highly enough of her! They have a comprehensive wine menu and a full bar. I started with a Lemon Drop Martini which was delicious, and later had a glass of Merlot as well which was tasty as well. They had warm fresh bread on the table with butter which was great since we were all very hungry. For my meal, I ordered the Halibut Large Plate. This was a lightly crisp blackened piece of Halibut topped with lump grab and a sauce, then served atop a piece of andouille sausage, asparagus, and creamy grits. There were SO MANY flavors perfectly balanced together here with a variety of textures to enjoy as well. I have nothing but good things to say about this. Blue Water Grille is fairly expensive and not somewhere you would come regularly, but for a special outing or a date night it is a great treat. The menu is seafood heavy and non-seafood items also pack a lot of flavor, so be aware that there are limited options for that picky eater in your party who perhaps wants a more plain chicken dish. As an aside - Someone in my party got the Mac & Cheese small plate and it looked fantastic. Definitely something I'm going to order next time!

Between excellent service, from the host to the kitchen staff, and being a bright, cheery place decorated in a modern farmhouse feel (only complaint is the HARD seating), we love this place. The food is always delicious and seasoned perfectly with FLAVOR. For the appetizer, the Salad Pizza is absolutely scrumptious and was recommended by our server our first visit here last year. Honestly, it keeps bringing us back. The flavors are incredible. It has feta, mozzarella, topped with organic greens, shaved onions, tossed in a lemon/dijon dressing with shaved parmesan. It's a flavor bomb in the mouth. The meatloaf, is to die for. If you're a meatloaf eater this is for you. It's so tender and juicy and perfectly seasoned. Melts in your mouth and the sauce on top is the perfect blend of sweet and savory to top it off. For my two sides this time I chose the fried brussels sprouts and the greens. The greens are always seasoned perfectly and the brussels sprouts were crispy and full of flavor. They tasted even better dipped in my meatloaf sauce so that was a win-win. My boyfriend had the special which was short ribs. For his two sides, he had greens and green beans. The short rib was perfectly tender and absolutely delicious full of flavor and moist for him. The green beans and the greens were also perfect as well full of flavor, just enough fat and butter. It's a great little date spot or a family dinner. They also have outdoor seating covered with umbrellas. There's a bar inside with a TV if you choose to go watch sports and the food here is always on point full of flavor and makes you want to come back and try more things on the menu. You can't go wrong at southern roots.

The sides were a standout, especially the Parmesan spaghetti squash, which I highly recommend. We had to put some extra salt on the sides, but that's purely personal preference. They also had several reasonably priced drink specials, which was a nice surprise. The service was amazing--friendly, attentive, and a big part of what made the meal so enjoyable. Overall, a really solid dining experience, and I'd definitely come back to try more of the menu.

There was live music from a two-man band singing soul and Motown standards. Both had great voices, and the music added a lot to the evening without taking over the room. Our server, Ty, was so friendly and knowledgable. She was warm, helpful, and made good recommendations. We started with the Brussels sprouts, and they were delicious. Sweet, flavorful, and cooked well, they still taste it like Brussels sprouts. You might even be able to convince a toddler to eat these. Definitely a recommend for me. The menu now includes small plates, which are priced a bit lower than the regular prices . It had been years since I visited this location, so the menu felt new to me even though a few familiar dishes were still there. My husband ordered the roasted chicken small plate with onion rings. He thought it was delicious. Between the chicken, Brussels sprouts, and fresh yeast rolls, it was plenty of food, and he still had some to take home for the next day. The chicken looked like at least half of a small bird, so the portion was generous for a small plate. I ordered the pasta Alfredo. Ty recommended adding both chicken and shrimp, so I did. The chicken was mixed into the pasta, and the shrimp were arranged on top with a small edible flower. It looked good and tasted good, although the Alfredo was a little bland for me. It needed a bit more seasoning, but the chicken and shrimp helped. This was a very enjoyable dinner. Good food, friendly service, live music, and portions that made the small plates feel like a good value. Must order: Brussels sprouts Tip: The Alfredo is mild, so ask for extra seasoning or Parmesan if you prefer more flavor.

We had made a reservation, which turned out to be smart because the place was busy, with a packed bar and full tables. We were greeted promptly by the maître d and seated right away. The cocktail, beer, and wine list is expansive. I started with a Manhattan, properly made. We kept it simple and ordered entrees only. This was a good call because the portions were just right with sides. All three of us had filets, and I added the surf-and-turf option with a lobster tail, Cabernet mushrooms, and asparagus with béarnaise. The flavors worked well together. We paired dinner with a bottle of Caymus and were impressed by the depth of the wine list -- some serious bottles on there, including Opus One. Service was smooth and perfectly paced. We were seated in the back of the restaurant, which has a cozy, library-like feel with a gas fireplace. We didn't have room for dessert, but the menu featured plenty of classic steakhouse options. We'll certainly consider coming back the next time we're in town.
