    Our 2nd time here. Ambiance. Still cute. Service... aweful..we waited for 15 mins for someone to even attempt to to take our order. Seems only the bartender was working with several people at the bar area. Everything my husband asked for to drink was OUT OF STOCK. Not good for a weekend night out. Food... 2 small pieces of chicken in my chicken noodle soup.very strong lemon taste. My steak was supposed to have green beans not collards.they should have asked before serving. Collards are can..was not impressed.dteak dinner is not worth 35.00 Very loud group of people in restaurant. Sad to go from a 5 star service and food to a 3 star.

    Menu lights up when you open it. Decor is all art with great stories behind them.

    We had fried green tomatoes with a side of their delicious pimento cheese. I had the classic vineyard burger and fries. It was very good and cooked to order. We also the Alfredo and broccoli with shrimp. I will have this on the next trip. The pimento cheese dip looked amazing. We would like to try it next visit. Highly recommend taking the 11 mile drive from White Lake for dinner. We didn't visit the winery. Back again 6.28.24. Had wings buffalo and BbQ winning sauce with the pimento cheese dip. Sooo Good.

    Today I was able to try the brand new menu under the new chef and I was blown away. First, the menus LIGHT up!! How cool is that?!! We started with the calamari and it was the biggest serving I ever saw. The marinara that it was served with was better than any marinara I have had at an Italian restaurant lately. The calamari was cooked perfect and had a honey sriracha glaze. I had the cup of chicken soup which is my absolute favorite chicken soup anywhere. I also had the grilled shrimp salad Shrimp were perfect! My friend had the chicken Caesar salad and she loved it Service was wonderful and of course I love the decor of the place! It's always nice to get some animal therapy after eating, too .

    Food was tasty and well prepared. Some of the best sheet crab soup outside of Savannah Georgia.

    Came with a large party and we were seated outdoors under the patio. We walked the property before dinner and had the kids look at all the animals. The property is so beautiful. We all ordered several different dishes and appetizers and everyone enjoyed their dish. My husband had the shrimp and grits and he said it was the best he ever had, I had the fettuccine and broccoli pasta and sauce was a tad bland but overall it was good. We also met Elvis the peacock and staff gave the kids blueberries to feed him. Overall very cool spot, would definitely recommend if you're in the area. The lady from the gift shop across the property was SO SWEET, we loved getting souvenirs to bring home with us. Definitely a five star experience all around.

    Great atmosphere and food. Sadie helped us today and she was great! Helped us decide wing flavors and amount of food. We sat outside and got visits from the duck couple. Love feeding the mini horses, lamas, and goats too! Beautiful location!!!

    Food is great. Bespoke drink menu and off the beaten path, but not out of the way. Great stop for lunch and nice to spend an afternoon at.

I saw something about a hamburger, it was lunch time and I decided to take the detour into town and see if I can get something to go. Suddenly, I was in downtown Elizabethtown, and it was quite charming. A lot of times I go through the small North Carolina towns that used to thrive at one time but are now pretty much shut down and deserted. It was not the case with Elizabethtown. I saw coffee shops and boutiques and clothing stores and of course, Melvin's. When I first walked in, I got nervous because there was a long line and I was not in the mood to be waiting a long time to get a hamburger unless it's for White Castles. But let me tell you something, Melvin's got it worked out to a science. One person takes your order. One person makes your hamburger. One person puts the hamburger in the bag and the other person takes your money. I was in and out of there in less than 2 minutes. It cracked me up. The menu is quite limited. You can have a hamburger or a cheeseburger or a hot dog and that's it. You can't even get fries. You can get a bag of chips which is what I did and some random cookie for a dollar. I enjoyed getting in the car and having my lunch for the ride back home. The hamburger was good and so was the pric... less than five bucks. I got it all the way with coleslaw and ketchup and mustard. and chili Melvin's has been around forever, and it was clear that the locals love it. The line was long and the place was pretty full. People are in and out of there in a few minutes. So anyway, if you're on your way to the beach and on 87, grab a burger at Melvin's and keep the tradition going at Melvin's.

Unfortunately, for me, I did not know what I was about to drink because I wasn't paying attention and my friend thought she was funny by introducing this to me, but 50 g of cannabis doesn't sit well with someone who wouldn't even drink too lol The bar has an indoor seating option but they have an outdoor Z themed sort of hangout place. Swings rocking chairs, different Adirondack seating covered, uncovered whatever your heart desires group seating single seating, etc. etc. there are tables there as well outback if you have a group. The bartender was very nice. He even warned us about the drinks. My friend was used to drinking these, but I wasn't lol I should've stuck to my wine. But I will say the way it works is that you're basically going into a back room selecting what you wanna drink if it's not a bar menu item and then you pay for it and then you walk outside or go find a place to hang out and chill. Really enjoyed the vibe. People were really nice. There were some people there alone just having a drink, chilling out and they were others that were just there having fun before going out to maybe the carnival the boardwalk or even to dinner. I did not see anybody eating food so I do not think there is food there maybe some bar nuts and stuff like that but other than that, it's pure just alcoholic beverages and non-alcoholic for those that don't drink. I'll go back there again for sure, but I definitely won't be having the drink that I had which was some canned cannabis whatever it was lol!

We were hungry and 'needing relief' so popped in for a bite. Three friendly ladies working the counter took our order. Prices were crazy low compared to the touristy spots we left behind in Myrtle Beach, or any in Los Angeles from where we recently moved. I wanted something a little different, so I ordered a pork chop sandwich. It was literally as the name implies, a pork chop on two pieces of white bread, bones included. I chucked a bit, and dug in. The flavor was good, and it was tender and juicy. The bathroom was another story. Sign said 'get key from store', so went in and asked for the key. Young guy at the counter handed me a ring of about 8 keys, pulled out two of them and said that it was one of these. It was not, nor was any of the others on the ring. I returned and explained, he came back with me and was equally unsuccessful. So he used one of the keys to slide behind the bolt and opened it that way. While I saw no evidence, it was quite foul-smelling, and I hurried about my business and left. I purchased two bottles of water from the lunch counter ($1 each, just like Vegas!), and we headed down the road.
