Although service was very slow and the food took forever to come out wbrything was great. The drinks were also good. There is a parking garage next to this establishment so you can avoid a parking ticket on the street. I highly recommend the chocolate martini it's better than the espresso one. read more

I met some friends here for HH on a Wednesday. The good thing is there is free parking. We sat at the bar and Jennifer took very good care of us. You can't beat a $6 martini at HH. They were delicious and made right every time. 3 times to be exact for me. :) Side note....there is an upcharge for blue cheese olives. She asked if I wanted blue cheese olives and I said yes not realizing they were an upcharge. No big deal - only a $1 but just so you know. We split a smashburger and fries and it was delicious. The fries were perfectly cooked and crispy. They even cut it in 1/2 for us. The bathrooms were clean. They have a different HH every night. I believe Wednesday is burgers and bourbon but they also always have the regular HH. I heard good things about the burgers and they did not disappoint. I would definitely go back for HH. I would like to try some other things on the menu. read more

We dined at Twist Martini & Associates at VB Town Center and had a great experience. We started with She Crab Soup, Buffalo Chicken Dip, and Chicken & Poblano Pepper Soup everything was good and flavorful. For entrées, we had the Frankenstein Burger (huge and loaded), Bacon Maple Salmon, and Blackened Atlantic Salmon with mashed potatoes and shrimp. All were flavorful and cooked well. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great food, excellent service, and a stylish atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Twist Martini & Associates delivers both quality and experience. Highly recommended! read more

My friend and I stopped by Twist last Friday to grab food and drinks after a long week. We absolutely love Twist so we couldn't wait to go and enjoy. [[HIGHLIGHT]]With it being a Friday night, we were hoping it wasn't too busy and thankfully, it wasn't.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]We sat at a table near the music and it was a bit loud but they did turn it down, which we thought was nice.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The Gummy Bear Martini is one of my favorites so I started with that. Since they had a special menu, we wanted to try some of the new items. I ordered the Gumbo and we decided to share the Beef Empanadas. We also ordered the Bourbon Bacon Meatballs, which we love. The food was served pretty quickly. Unfortunately, I wasn't a fan of the Gumbo! It had a peculiar taste that I couldn't quite pinpoint. The Beef Empanadas weren't bad but could've been seasoned better, I enjoyed the chutney on top. The Bourbon Bacon Meatballs weren't a hit this time, which was disappointing. We remembered them being more saucy and flavorful, but they tasted like the frozen meatballs from the store with some sauce on top. Very underwhelming. I grabbed the Bee Sting, which consisted of honey habanero moonshine, lemon juice and simple syrup and I loved it. We also ended the night with Espresso Martinis. Overall, the food just didn't hit the mark this time but the drinks were great as always. My friend even had them customize a drink for her and it turned out very good. Our server was absolutely amazing though! She was personable and made our experience very enjoyable. I'm sure we'll return because it's one of our favorite spots but I hope we have a better food experience next time. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]This is a very cute restaurant with good vibes.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I love that they have adequate indoor and outdoor seating, along with a bar area.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The staff we encountered, including our waitress, were all friendly. The food was tasty. I didn't get a picture of any of it, but we ate everything on our plates. (A good sign.) The drinks, however, left much to be desired. Such was disappointing as the cocktail menu looks amazing. I ordered a Bourbon Peach Smash (peach bourbon, sliced peaches, simple syrup, splash of soda water, & mint). It looked like a glass of soda water w/ peaches & mint. Clear with bubbles. How odd. Without thinking, I started drinking as I continued my conversation. I thought "oh that's refreshing" (like peach water) and then I remembered what I ordered and looked at it. No bourbon was in the drink. I informed the waitress and she stated it was clear because, "peach bourbon is lighter" in color. ... I insisted that isn't the case and she said she would check and taste it. Yes, TASTE it. She took it to the bar and, when she brought it back, confirmed there was bourbon in it. I asked if she said she was going to taste my drink. She smiled and said yes & that she stuck a straw in it. I declined to drink it and asked for a Georgia Peach Mule instead. Sadly, it wasn't good and was flat. You'd think they were the same if it weren't for the missing peaches & mint. I didn't bother sending it back. I will say, my friend enjoyed her martini, as did the ladies next to us. Perhaps, just stick to those while there. [The attached picture is of their pickle martini. The bourbon peach smash was clearer than it.) read more

absolutely terrible food. Chicken was dry and unseasoned. The grill char was too deep so the chicken was bitter. service was good. The waiter was very nice 10/10 on that department but aside from that everything was horrible read more

Had to stop in and celebrate my birthday with one of my favorite spots. Ask me how I forgot to take pictures of my food again I have no idea, but I did manage to get a picture of my cocktail. The espresso martini from here is hands-down one of the best in the area. The food is also very good. Unfortunately, the food was not as great as it usually is on this particular night maybe that's why I didn't take photos this time but I definitely recommend stopping by the bar and getting yourself an espresso martini service is always amazing and the bar is always fun. It's a great local spot as long as you can find parking. read more

I hate to do this but I'm giving 3 stars for location only The drinks are seriously watered down...I've been to a lot of "martini/mixologist" bars where the experience is key This was not the place...the bartenders turn away while mixing...the whole point of mixologist is to show the patron the magic... That was not done...also the burger I ordered took over an hour to make so we DECIDED TO GET IT TOGO... Plus Side manager was super nice and comp'ed some of our check Just would like more show...and stronger drinks lol... that's what a martini bar is known for read more

Food We went just for apps. Ordering the deviled eggs and the Parmesan truffle fries. I honestly wasn't a fan of the eggs. They were bland and lack flavor. Additionally I'm someone with sensitive teeth, so these were so cold that I couldn't chew them right away. The pork belly will the eggs was good though. The Parmesan truffle fries were delicious and fresh. I really enjoyed them. Service The service was great. Our server was attentive, upbeat, and seemed to enjoy working there. We sat next to the bar, so our drinks come out in a timely manner. Ambiance Ambiance was cool. This is full on date night vibes type of place. They don't have a huge footprint for seating and they don't open till 5. However if you get there early enough I'm sure you will be fine. Drinks We came here solely for martinis, and Twist did not disappoint! The lavender lemon drop was absolutely amazing. The sugar rimmed glass put it over the top. I will certainly be back for martinis. read more

Upscale vibe but was not what I was looking for. My boyfriend and I were walking around town center and wanted to try out a new spot for happy hour. Unfortunately, Twist doesn't offer a "traditional" happy hour. They have daily specials and it happened to be their Taco Tuesday. Along with discounted tacos they offered $5 house margaritas. We just wanted a quick bite to eat and a drink so it worked out for us. I ordered two grilled steak tacos and a blueberry margarita ($2 extra for flavors). Both were pretty good and my boyfriend enjoyed his Blueberry Vanilla Bourbon Smash. The inside is small and intimate and I love the bar set up. They have a few outdoor tables but I don't believe they were seating out there. The bathrooms were clean and easily accessible. Staff was friendly but overall I don't think we will be back. They have a wide selection of cocktail drinks but everything was kind of subpar in my opinion for the price. I would recommend this place to someone for a special date night though. I can definitely see this spot being busy in the evening with business travelers staying in Town Center but I really think they could bring a happy hour crowd with some better specials. 5/23/23 read more

Food was great; excellent presentation and delicious. Service was extremely slow, received our drinks when we were almost done with our entrees. There was no rush to give us a check and no rush to pick it up either. Ordered two drinks; not sure if there was any alcohol in them; super weak drinks; waste of money. Food tasted really good but we won't be back. read more

My husband and I had planned a date night and we picked Twist . Our reservation were for 7pm . When arrived I stated we had reservations and the young lady escorted us the bar area .

Twist is a great experience for drinks and appetizers or drinks and dinner. Fun time all around. My friend and I were there for several hours catching up so alot of dishes and drinks were ordered. Everything was incredible. Our waiter was very attentive, funny and knowledgeable on the drinks and the menu. I would recommend this establishment for first dates, hanging out with friends, and after work drinks. We sat in the bar area but there is a more quiet and secluded dining area for date nights. read more

I ordered the steak frites with Parmesan truffle fries. The chimichurri sauce was good, but the overall flavor of the steak was lacking. I expected more seasoning on a steak. Our waiter was super helpful and was constantly checking on us. We chose to sit in the dining area which had a decent atmosphere. Overall, while not a bad experience, I don't know that I'd come here again with so many other places in VB to choose from. read more

My girlfriend and I went after a hilarious comedy show at the FB around the corner, and we wanted to find a place where we could sit outside for a drink before heading back home. We stumbled upon this gem, and we sat outside on the corner table. Our server was AMAZING (I don't remember her name) and the drinks were great (although they didn't have crush ice, aka "that good ice" for the orange crush, which was a bummer). We had veggie lumpia & bread pudding, and they were both really delicious! The inside looked so plush & gorgeous- if you want somewhere with a classy feeling to it, this may just be your spot read more

It took over two hours for our party of two to eat - and that's WITHOUT dessert! (They did give it to us to go as a birthday gift for my husband). I ordered the PORK CHOP, we asked it to be cooked to the chef's recommendation- it was so overcooked I had trouble cutting it and so dry I choked on it. My husband had pasta with crab meat. The crab was good, but the pasta was severely undercooked. The menu stated all checks would have an 18% gratuity no matter what size party you were - we are GENEROUS tippers - 25% or better - when service is good. Why enforce a large tip and then provide poor service? We paid $126 for mediocre service and a poor meal - only one alcoholic beverage each. You won't find us there again! read more

Experience and waiter was 10 out of 10. Let's talk about the burger ! Omgosh the Waygu burger was amazing will come back for it. The truffle fries were to die for !! Amazing crisp and prepared to protection. My girl ordered the burger and I ordered the ribeye meal. The ribeye was 2 out of 10. It was cooked to my liking but the char on my ribeye was too strong . It tasted burnt and smelt burnt. But overall experience was amazing. The oyster Rockefeller was a 7.5 out of 10. Could have been cooked a tad bit longer but some of the better oysters I've had. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice vibe here on a cool summer day. Sat outside and service was great.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Burger was the best hands down ! Catherine was the best, very sweet and attentive to her tables. read more

Pre-Covid, we always passed this location and it seemed like such a good spot with the music and drinks. Wanting to try something new, we finally gave it a try! We ordered the she crab soup (the crab meat chunks on top were the only pieces of crab meat in the entire bowl) + the veggie egg rolls which were fried well as our appetizers. Main course I ordered the turkey burger since the menu was a bit limited and he ordered the hand-crafted crab cakes. I will say I really enjoyed the rice that came with his meal. Mojito would've been much better within about half of the mint they threw in there. Overall, 3.5 rounded down. Everything was just eh and not memorable, but willing to give another try. Our waitress was nice and it is quite beautiful inside at the main entrance where we sat. read more

Came here for dinner with coworkers. Loved the ambience, it was very nice inside. I got the lumpia for an appetizer and my friend got the oysters. The oysters were not as big as some other local seafood places but they were still good. I got the salmon bowl for a entree, I thought the salmon was going to be on a bed of greens but it wasn't. The presentation threw me off, but it was still a tasty dish. One friend got the steak which she enjoyed and another got the bacon salmon and crab cake which looked yummy too. We also tried some of their cocktails which were good. Definitely a nice spot for girls night or date night read more

Came to this restaurant for a girls night out. I really like the booths at this restaurant. It had a luxury feel to it. However, I was not impressed with the food. The lumpia was really good. I didn't really care for the lobster Mac and cheese. I did not like the deviled eggs with the pimento cheese at all. The drinks were okay though. I probably will not come back to this restaurant and if I do....it may be just for drinks. read more

So... saw their "Taco Tuesday" ad, and was hyped to go! Thinking I had a new "TT" place... unfortunately, NOT! I am really disappointed by this. Seriously. I remember when this place initially opened, and the high expectations they'd positioned customers to expect. I understand that this place is focused on their drinks. Which I'm sure are great (I asked for an "Angry Orchard" and they were out). These Tacos... WACK!! So, here's my problem... I barely tasted any definitive difference from the Tacos I ordered. Ordered were Two duck (he brought me three), One steak, One Beef. Duck: less than a fork full of meat. I know it's only $5.00, but, c'mon. I literally didn't taste any duck in my first bite. I then stopped to search for the meat, thinking they'd sent out the wrong taco. Very sparing with the Duck. Completely unseasoned. Overcooked. It must be the remnants from another dish they have on the menu. Totally disappointed. You can see, the Tacos are loaded with lettuce and tomatoes. The balsamic is tasty, but... that's it. The bar space itself is nice. Staff is cool. These tacos though... TRASH!!! Just a pent $25.00 and STILL have to find something to eat. read more

For a martini bar I feel like the drinks could have been better, or maybe have a bigger selection. I wasn't super impressed with them... which is why I gave this review 4 stars, but the FOOD. Omg it was so yummy. We started with the Buffalo chicken dip which was very good and a nice portion for the table. I then had the Alaskan salmon overtop of mashed potatoes, I could have licked the plate! My friend had the pesto pasta and the portion was so huge she will probably eat that for the next few days. The table we sat at was pretty sticky. We almost spilled our drinks a few times cause they were sticking to the table. Guess that's what happens at a martini bar! Haha read more

No lie. I really love"d" this place. I told the server my first time that I don't eat pork and he got me meatballs with sauce on the side and no bacon. The lemon drops are perfection...... the food was good. .... So I came back like 7 times for it. Well today I asked for my usual , and the sweet server comes back and asks if I'm not having bacon out of preference or because I don't eat pork .....APPARENTLY the meatballs are half pork and my first server lied.... My heart was broken. I gave the airline chicken a try and didn't just leave because I've always had great service here and I didn't want to write this place off . The chicken was ok . I'm familiar with Joyce farms outside of WinstonSalem and the chicken is Devine.... Doesn't taste commercial at all but this place covered it with bbq sauce and I honestly feel for the price they spend on it, they're hiding the very thing that makes it different from Walmart chicken. They should remove the sauce and just season it with herbs so people can identify the difference. Other than that.... I'll go back for drinks but I will never eat their again. read more

All I have to say about this place is WOW. I've always passed Twist in the Town Center area. I ASSUMED it was a boujie restaurant, but I was wrong. It's such a vibe with reasonable prices.
