We recently made a visit to Bites and Pints for lunch and it may have become one of my new favorite…read morespots for a burger in Greensboro. To start, we got an order of the Philly egg rolls. While these were good, I think I would have liked these a little more if there were more rolls in the order, but less filling in each of them, as these were almost too much filling for each roll as it kept falling out while eating. The flavor however was phenomenal and I would still recommend them! For the main, I got the Bites and Pints Melt with a side of bacon cheese fries. The melt was cooked perfectly and loved the addition of the special sauce on top. The burger to Texas toast ratio was spot on as well. 10/10 would get again. The bacon cheese fries were delicious as well, crispy fries smothered in beer cheese and bacon, what more can you ask for?! A phenomenal meal was had this time around and cannot wait to stop back by for another!

She was so friendly and a trooper serving us outside in the heat. We started with the philly cheesesteak egg roll promo offer we received. The egg rolls had great flavor but were really greasy. They could've been set on a rack to drain excess grease off after the fryer, but the flavor was great. I also ordered the spicy asian chicken wings and the sweet potato fries and they were really good! Now for the bad- we also ordered the chicken quesadilla- NOT good. It was so greasy that the grease was oozing out when he would take a bite and was pooled on the plate. We also found it very odd that it was just served with what we think was a side of spicy ranch. No lettuce, no pico, no salsa, & no sour cream- not our idea of a good quesadilla at all.... Overall, the service was great but the food- not so much. This is a place I would swing in to grab a beer and maybe an appetizer on the patio if nearby, but would not go out of my way to go for food.

It's a nice Spanish-themed cuisine restaurant, lots of tapas and Mediterranean cuisine. It was good! Decent cocktail and wine menus as well.

Typical mall restaurant where ceiling fixtures are crooked, burned out lightbulbs in many fixtures, dirty ceiling tiles. Food gave it 4 stars, the space itself is mediocre!

Paid $40 for a 60z "Strip" it most definitely was not a NY strip MAYBE a sirloin. It was disgusting and I do mean absolutely just nasty. They told me you can't decide temperature but it comes out MR-M which I would've ordered anyways but then the steak came out well done and covered in water gravy. They have barely any steak sauce options so you can't even make it good. The server was really nice and attentive though. I don't recommend eating here though, maybe just drinks.

We came upon this place knowing it was in the area, and decided to try it. They allow you to seat yourself which is fine. They did not seem to be very busy at noon on a Saturday, but people were coming and going. All good. Our server came by quickly to ask about drinks and if we wanted any appetizers. We gave drink orders and said no to apps. It was the first time here, so I tend to look over the menu a little longer than usual, but, it was not that busy. The server came by to take our entree orders and we said we just need a few minutes to look over the menu. Within 1 minute, another server came by to take orders order. We said that we just told the server we need a couple minutes to look at the menu. I'm not sure what the rush was, but it made me feel like they must take orders immediately. For a casual place, with a great playlist by the way, they sure made me feel hurried. The first server came by in a good amount of time, so we finally placed our order. Our food came out pretty quickly. Everything looked really good. Nice portion sizes and the food was tasty. We got a summer lovin flatbread and the California panini chicken sandwich with a side of sweet potato fries. I wasn't too fond of the aoli. I thought it was a little thick. I think I would have preferred a honey mustard sauce for the fries. Also, the chicken was so thin on the sandwich you could hardly taste it. Sandwich was good but I expected more of a chicken cutlet as opposed to a flattened piece of chicken as you might get at the deli counter. My guy finished first, but I was still eating. The server comes by and asks what we're thinking for dessert. Again, rushed? I was still eating my lunch. We weren't ready to make that decision but now I wanted to finish and go, because, clearly it's the servers favorite table, and must have some attachment to it to be rushing the meal so much. I think the server needs to work on timing. If one in the party is still eating their food, would they really be discussing dessert yet? And to remind all who are reading: it wasn't a busy day yet. Only a few tables were occupied, so I will be docking a star for the service. Overall if not such a rushed experience, I would say: menu good, portions good, comfortable atmosphere. Nice place. Servers need extra training in timing and approach.

Paint it, strip it, or change it. After waiting a few weeks, we visited on a Friday right after 5 p.m. Overall, nice place, lots of space, and warm welcomes. Cool. Then out came the leaf blower during our visit to remove a few pesky leaves out front. "What?" we yelled at each other. Worrisome. Several early reviews questioned service and tastiness, so we lofted them a couple softballs: Classic martini, Manhattan, and flat bread. The Flatbread with prosciutto, goat cheese, fig jam, and arugula was fantastic. I'd order it again. The drinks, however, were poorly made, lacked the proper ingredients, and reflected a novice behind the bar. When does a classic martini taste sweet? And when does a Manhattan look pale as a rosé? It was explained the regular bartender was not on shift. Ouch. I have high hopes for this place, but clearly, they must figure out how to present themselves as a tour de force in this tiny, emerging space as great eats in Monroe. Has my "Give 'em a Whirl" meter set to "Hmmmm," and praying for a strong showing next time. Visit and encourage them to improve!

Several big parties were seated and the bartenders were complaining about lack of help. I ordered the cosmo and was underwhelmed, as it tasted like nothing but lime. The tv's at the bar area were the smallest I have ever seen, odd. It felt like such a weird vibe and didn't want to take a chance on the food considering it was not cheap. Maybe I'll be back?

You can't go wrong with any of it. The vibe inside is so relaxed. They have tons and I do mean tons of beers on tap as well.

Even though it's got a decent size bar, it's not overly loud. You could definitely bring your family earlier in the day and enjoy good food together. The service is outstanding and the guy that runs the food out seems like he knows everyone in the building. We had a very nice waitress that hustled throughout the room getting orders with the quickness. Even as busy as it was there never seemed to be a table or patron neglected. Anyone near downtown Hickory should make this a regular place and those out of towners looking for something comfortable with a different twist like tofu shawarma would love this restaurant.
