Easily my favorite restaurant in High Point! The food is great, it's cheap and the servers are attentive. Their huge menu includes lots of comfort food and pizza, burgers, etc. Everything I've had has been good. If you're looking for a gourmet meal, this isn't it, but if you want something delicious and affordable, UKitchen is your place. read more

A friend whom I took home one day that lives in High Point told me about this place, and what she had there and well as her fam. She told me she loves their wings. I stopped that night after dropping her off and ordered some honey mustard wing meal with two sides (greens and mac-n-cheese) and corn bread, then a second meal of chicken livers, with grilled corn and fried squash with the garlic stick for my bread. I loved everything except for the cornbread, it wasn't the texture I was used to. Other than that I will most definitely go back soon!! read more

This was my first visit to University Kitchen but I'm already anxious to go back! My meal started with a garden salad, nothing special--just your standard iceberg, etc--but a good size. The entree was baked spaghetti, excellent. The pasta portion was average I'd say but the "garlic stick" that comes with it was MASSIVE, like a big piece of focaccia but very fluffy. The meal ended up being very filling. My companion had the chicken livers, which are served by default with bacon and onions. At first he found them a tad dry but once he added a side of brown gravy he said they were the best he'd ever tasted. The collards and fried okra were great too apparently--I took his word for it, neither are to my taste. The service was a little spotty. Our server had to be reminded that we needed silverware (after the food was brought out) and we were only offered refills once. It was also a tad discouraging that no staff members were masked. The restaurant is a little shabby but energetic and spacious, kind of a comfort food place with a sports bar vibe. The prices certainly warrant another visit. Two dinners with two iced teas for around $26 is hard to beat, especially when you leave stuffed. Not perfect but a winner! read more

Food was good. I had the wings and pizza. I wanted to eat here because I had used their service to cater several events I had sponsored. I was very disappointed in my in-house visit. Place was not busy however service was lousy. Server rushed us through the meal - taking away plates even while we were eating. "Accidentally" threw away a portion of my guest's meal. Mentioned it to waitress, she responded "It wasn't that much. I thought you were finished." I wanted to talk to manager however he/she never came to front counter - just sent messages with waitress. Not professional at all. :( Reckon I was more embarrassed and offended because I had recommended that we eat there. Don't think I will go back there for a sit-down meal - possibly carry-out. read more

First time here. Of course we ordered too much food, but ohhh so good. Mac and cheese wonderfully cheese and baked goodness. Wings, pizza and chic parm wonderful. Also had fried squash so fresh and tasty. Definitely recommend this place read more

University Kitchen - Chicken parm , fried squash, pizza and wings. OH SO GOOD. Every thing cooked perfectly and wonder fresh flavors. Will come again. - Pizza Near Me - High Point, North Carolina

I am currently trying to enjoy the country fried steak and I just can't. The country fried steak has no seasoning whatsoever. I just salt and peppered it to death and it's still not helping. Thank goodness I got two sides with it or I'll still be starving. On a good note the macaroni and cheese is so good. The greens are alright. The sweet tea is super sweet just how I like it. I think I'll give University Kitchen another shot, but not get the country fried steak. read more

I threw away my whole plate. I ordered a buffalo wrap hot. And the wrap was DISGUSTING. I don't know what kind of hot sauce that was but it was awful. read more

The good- menu is extensive and service was very attentive. The bad-the food quality. I had the chicken parm, it was tough, stringy and tasted like it was made hours before and reheated. The fried green tomatoes were so greasy they left a pool of oil in the bowl they were served in. Another review mentioned how delicious the Bleu cheese dressing was. So I ordered a salad with Bleu cheese. There was no Bleu cheese in the dressing and the lettuce was dripping water. Over person had the hamburger steak with onions. They ate two bites and did not eat any more. It was mostly fat and gristle. The others in our party enjoyed their vegetable plate and Mac and cheese. We were stoked to sample some of the cakes on display but after such a disappointing meal felt they were probably not as good as they looked. I should add that the place is a dive but it is a low price restaurant and was fairly full with a local following. read more

Food is good but none of the staff wear masks even though they are required in Guilford County. Covid is rampant here.

Food was good.Certainly plenty of it, no matter what we order from their huge menu. My friend ordered the special. Beef tips in gravy over rice. He loved it. The size of mac&cheese was very good. I had the pork chops. Although they were thin as could be they were tasty. I thought that the mac& cheese was the high light of the meal. Service was good._ read more

My husband and I just moved to High Point from Los Angeles and we have been looking for a decent pizza place. Omg this place knows about pizza! My husband ordered a personal pizza- delicious! I ordered the chicken fried steak (white gravy) with collard greens and seasoned fries. They probably dont need to wash my plate, we scooped up all the leftover gravy with the fries. Everything was superb. And the service was fantastic- Landi, our server was attentive and sweet and the owner (didnt catch his name) came by to check on us and was oh so kind and genuine. THIS IS OUR PLACE. Prices were great, was close to home, and food great. WE WILL BE BACK Thank you!!! See you tomorrow! read more

Perhaps the best diner in all of the Triad! Now before anyone goes ballistic and starts naming their favorite restaurant, let me just explain what I mean by diner. A small casual atmosphere that lends itself to accepting you as you roll up in shorts and t-shirt, or mid week work wear, construction worker, as well as the 9-5 bank teller. A place that has a menu that realistically could take you 20 minutes to really delve into, as well as bathrooms that may make you think twice upon entering! I've kinda watched from a distance as University Kitchen was getting great reviews, and then for some time they just dried up. Almost as if all activity stopped, knowing someone was watching, which tonight made me walk in to check out what had gone wrong! It's a nice looking diner as you come in, with a ton of booths and tables, and a tiny bar that I think only serves up bottled beers and a handful of wines? The menu is extensive, but nicely laid out in sections pertaining to certain styles of food. I really was intrigued by several things from fried chicken, pasta dishes, sandwiches, fried shrimp, wings, and pizza. Due to the size of the pizza and wing section, I figured that they must do pretty well at these items so I rolled the proverbial dice. I ordered a three topping pizza with the Italian salty meats consisting of pepperoni, meatballs, and bacon. The pizza was easily enough for 2-3 people and that was just a medium! The crust was good and thick enough, meats were really flavorful, and a nice sauce made this surprisingly good for a diner style establishment. This came with ten wings for which I always order plain, and I got a sesame ginger sauce on the side. I feel as though you'll get a truer feel for the quality of the meat and frying result if it's not swimming in some kind of sauce. These wings were meaty and fried to a perfect crispy exterior! For the medium pizza, ten wings, and a couple of sodas, I walked out at about $22 after tax and could've easily satisfied two or three adults. I will add that they've got some killer looking desserts as well that I'll certainly be trying next trip! After all, I think you'll be hard pressed to find a cheap, casual, no frills diner better than University Kitchen in the Triad! read more

Love love love. Parmesan crusted chicken is a must and the sweet potato casserole is to die for!! I eat here every time I'm in high point or thomasville! read more

Was in the mood for something besides fast food for lunch so we stopped here. Was very happy we did. Great food and big portions. The staff was very friendly also. We will be going again when we're in town. read more

Cool atmosphere. Delicious homemade desserts. My faves...veggie burger and hot chips, fried squash and ranch. read more

Tried this place for the first time Friday and I gotta say I was impressed. I ordered the steak medallions and the steak was extra tender. The yams were great and the mac and cheese was awesome. My daughter had a pepperoni pizza to which was okay at best. I'll definitely be back to try other things on the menu. read more

Good food, with a few misses. Service sucks. I generally make it a best practice to avoid places where I see legions of senior citizens eat or where you are overwhelmed with the smell of patina when you open the door, but this place reviews well and as anyone that lives off of the North Main corridor knows, there's not a lot of reasonably priced and good tasting variety in dinner choices that doesn't include the big box eateries in this area. It was worth a try. The first thing I ever ate here was the Athenian pizza and I was pretty impressed as I was always curious about a pizza/gyro combination. It took about 40 minutes to get that pizza as we saw the entire bar/waiting area clear out and my wife had to remind them that we were waiting. I was unimpressed with the Chicken Florentine. It was the smallest piece of chicken breast they could find, under-seasoned, and I had to cut through a ton of mozzarella until I actually got to the meat. Taco pizza is great (must be eaten with a knife and fork) and resonates with me particularly because it tastes just like the Super Tacos I grew up eating from hot dog stands in Chicago (a super taco being a spicy, hot, sloppy mess of ground beef and melted cheese with lettuce and onions in a pita). That time, the person on the phone had picked up, asked my wife to wait, put the phone on the countertop, continued taking orders and completely forgot she was on the phone...that went on for five minutes. After another five minutes of repeated calls that were either busy or sent us to the fax machine, we drove there, she walked in and told the guy at the counter he may want to hang up his phone. "Excuse me?" He says. "The person you put the phone down on 10 minutes ago was me, and the whole point of me calling was so I wouldn't have to backtrack and come up here." "Oh", he says. They often forget to include flatware with their takeout. We dined in the other day and our waitress was forgetful as hell, she had to come back to ask again what kind of sauce on the meatloaf after she had already asked, forgot straws, flatware (of which one fork still had food caked on)...It was a mess. In a nutshell, here are the other good things: - 1/2 fried chicken dipped in hot buffalo sauce was thoroughly cooked and on point. Have water handy. - Chicken tenders are hand made and cooked just right and have a good amount of crisp. - Mac and Cheese is made in house as well and is very good, try mixing it with your fries for a flavor bomb. - Wings are perfectly cooked and crisp and come in a number of flavors. - The pork chops were the perfect balance of tender and flavorful and had a generous thickness to them. - Ribs are a delicious, sloppy treat. Drawbacks: - I hear the meatloaf leaves much to be desired. - Chicken Florentine is unimpressive. - Clumsy, forgetful service. - The dining area needs a thorough scrub down and remodel. read more

University Kitchen was actually pretty good. We had been telling ourselves we would visit one evening after one of our Publix visits and they didn't disappoint. I ordered the Parmesan chicken with mashed potatoes and the baked mac and cheese. My husband had the Teriyaki chicken and broccoli, which he said was equally as good. To no fault of theirs, I just hate we weren't able to dine in. I'm sure it would have been much better. We will definitely try them again. They have soooooo much more we would like to try! read more

Pretty interesting private owned restaurant. Food was absolutely incredible. I recommend trying the buffalo crispy chicken sandwich. The only reason i didn't give 5 stars was because the vibe in the place feels extremely suspicious/ sketchy. Service was okay, just not a very welcoming environment. Food is absolutely worth the sketchy experience though. read more

So many options and everything is good. Their specials are excellent. Service is great. Have been here about a dozen times and it's always good. Very consistent. read more

Excellent service and food great for lunch. I will definitely be back whenever I'm in the high point area. Extensive menu so much variety. Great prices too read more

The menu is a gut-busting agglomeration of seven pages with 30 side dishes and a litany of item choices. The choices of sides is dizzying, but If you want it, they have it here: Sandwiches, burgers, clubs, subs, wings, pizza, seafood, ribs, salads, kebabs, pasta, chicken, wraps and more. Most of the menu consists of familiar comfort foods that are made very well. The other half is pizza, wings and extremely economical lunch offerings starting at $4.95 for the penny-pinching senior in college or someone in their senior stage of life. It was difficult to decide what to order because of the array of choices. Meatloaf is classic, and at University it is two slices baked with a tomato ketchup glaze and served with brown gravy or more tomato ketchup glaze. I chose brown gravy that arrived garnished with dried parsley. I chose macaroni and cheese and steamed broccoli for my sides. The meatloaf was gross. I don't know what I was thinking by ordering it. Maybe I should have asked for it with ketchup and no gravy, because it had ketchup on it anyway and the gravy was just poured on top. The macaroni and cheese was okay. It reminded me of crockpot macaroni and while I prefer a crust on mine, this one didn't have one and the noodles were mushy--excuse me, soft. And cheesy. The broccoli came out heavily seasoned with seasoned salt and I had to send it back, because I simply wanted broccoli, not seasoned, salted steamed broccoli. On the 2nd go-around, it was perfect. And by perfect, I mean, as perfect as previously frozen broccoli can be. My friend got the Chicken Monterrey and while festive--covered with onions, bacon, mushrooms, bell peppers, sun-dried tomatoes and a mix of cheeses--it was hiding a multitude of sins. The chicken was dry. And hard. But when mixed with the macaroni, it was great! The largest portion of the menu is the pizza, which I have yet to try, but I am looking forward to trying it next time I visit. That is, if I can bring myself to visit again, which I'm not sure I will. read more

Food AND service are great. Food is tasty and well seasoned. I ordered take out at the bar and my food was served in a timely manner. I got the fried chicken, green beans, collards and red velvet cake. Everything was beyond delicious. The cake is to die for. No joke. The owner is friendly and he's an overall nice man. I will go back for sure. read more

University Kitchen I was there this past week and I ordered the meatloaf. I got my plate and started to eat and looking at it I saw hair that was on my garlic bread. Looking more at my plate I noticed that there was a very large pile of hair on my plate stuck to it. I told the lady that was waiting our table and she ignored what I was saying. I didn't eat the rest of my meal I was sick on my stomach. This is the second time I have had hair in my food at this place. The owner need not to respond to this post because they don't care. I brought this to his attention this first time. I should have taken pictures. read more

I was recommended this place by my environmental science teacher I was not disappointed. I got the babyback ribs dinner with bbq baked beans, seasoned fries, and cornbread and they all tasted amazing. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for good food at a low price read more

The food here is awful. The Mac and cheese was very mushy. The wings were fried beyond tasteful. One person at my table requested that the hot chips not be cooked all the way. We were informed that the chips were always cooked well done and we couldn't "alter the menu" so that the food was the same way every time. Aka, it's all frozen. The only upside is that the service was decent. I won't be going back here. read more

I'm still torn on this restaurant. The service is good, the food just ok. Maybe it was what we ordered or the day we visited, but we didn't have the same 'OMG' experience that others have had. Overall good restaurant with lots of potential. I'm rooting for you guys to make this into something exceptional! read more

This place was okay. The food was good. I had the chicken fried steak and some veggies. This place is good for a quick bite but not for a sit down meal with friends. Our server rushed us and attempted to clear our plates half way through our meal. I don't think I would go back to this location. read more

BIG BUG IN MY SIDE SALAD I found some type of bug in my side salad after eating half of the salad. It grossed me out so I could not finish my food. My boyfriend was also eating and lost his appetite. We called the manager and he offered to give us another side salad. Keep in mind our meal was ruined and we had $28.98 of inedible food. The manager is a joke and the customer service is horrible. We have eaten here multiple times and the manager knows who we are and still offered only a side salad. EAT AT YOUR OWN RISK read more

My husband and I thought we'd give this restaurant a whirl since we heard it was good. We went last Friday afternoon and got there about 5 before 11:00. There were 2 other cars and a gentleman also waiting by the door. We waited until 11:10 and when no one appeared we left and had lunch elsewhere. We stopped by after our lunch to inquire what time they do open Fridays'. A young lady I spoke to was extremely snotty with her response. "Well, when I went to open the door, I looked at the clock and it was 11:03" and then turned around and ignored me. Not a great first impression. read more

The food was delicious granted but my rice had rice in it. Employees weren't very nice to accommodate my needs. Poor service and very rude attitude. Won't be going back. read more

Just had lunch at University Kitchen with friends. Food is always good. Today however a "regular " customer - older man- was seated near us and from the time he sat down he was rude to the server. This continued throughout the meal. His behavior was unruly and made us all uncomfortable. The server wound up in tears after he told her she purposely messed up his order. She was excellent with us. This man should not be allowed back in the place. If he's there next time we go, we'll leave. read more

Basically a diner, but a very good one. Normally a very broad and diverse menu is a warning sign, but this place seems to pull it off! The restaurant was clean, wait staff friendly, and the food was hot and delicious. Meatloaf was some of the best I've had in a while, and the chicken florentine was very tasty even though it was a bit different (chicken spinach feta and ... Gravy? But it worked.) Will be back and will add it as one of our go to spots if it's this good next time. read more

My coworkers and I ordered take out from University Kitchen a few days ago, and we all really enjoyed it. The portion sizes are very generous, and the prices are more than reasonable. Also, if you do stop by, be sure and check out the chocolate peanutbutter cake. It was wonderful! read more

We were in the area for a soccer tournament and we didn't want fast food. Saw the reviews on yelp and tried it out. Thank you yelp reviewers, great recommendation. I love when the staff and owner are proud of their food. These guys are running a solid restaurant. The menu has a lot of variety as well. Everyone was happy with my crew and that is a hard thing to accomplish. I highly recommend if you want good food in a comfortable environment. read more

Solid new spot in Low Dot. Good lunch specials, great prices, quick service. I had the Buffalo Chicken Wrap and fries. Spicy and delicious. They also have a lunch special where you get a personal pizza and 3 wings. $6.50. Hard to beat. Hope this place lasts unlike others in this location. read more

Monday was my first time trying University Kitchen, and most likely my last. We walked in and the atmosphere of the restaurant was very... "Monday-ish", no greeting, just told to seat ourselves and someone would be with us shortly. The menu is overwhelmingly long. Could be a plus to some, but I prefer a simple, straightforward menu. I ordered the lemon pepper half chicken with potato wedges, baked mac n cheese, and cornbread. My partner ordered chicken strips with the same sides. The meal was decent but lacked seasoning. Everything needed salt. The baked mac n cheese, and cornbread were the biggest upsets. The baked mac n cheese was watery, and didn't taste like much. The cornbread was bland, not even sweet? I was confused and unamused. Our server was prompt with checking in on us, so that was a plus. The young guy at the register was slightly condescending and had a bit of an attitude. $30 later, we felt like it wasn't worth it. Won't be returning. read more

This is my first time eating here. So I order some honey barbeque wing dinner,and they were delicious. I would recommend some of my friends and family to eat there. I definitely will go back. The staff is very friendly Mike was very nice to me and it was another employee that I was talking to she was nice also. They really will give you a lot for your money. I'm a very customer. Oh yeah by the way the wing dinner comes with two sides you can't beat that deal. read more

Best place in high point, great sides, great burgers, I make them messy but everything they have mixes great. The service is great and the atmosphere is really good. You need to check this place out. read more
