Surprisingly great vegetarian options! Really enjoyed the pimento cheese dippers but there were lots of other great options as well. This place is popular for Burlington and Elon locals and for a good reason! read more

This is at the brand newly opened location on church street, not the old one on Huffman mill. Waited a couple minutes to be seated. There was an employee there chit chatting with a customer while we waited. She then walked away and said someone would be with us shortly. The stand was unattended and we weren't even sure we were in the correct spot. The opposite lot was full so we parked on the south side and thankfully got it right. It would be helpful to mark the entrance in case we parked the opposite side. The turn in going south has one turn on the opposite end. Plenty of parking. The place looks brand new: nice decor. Server Chelsea was very nice and helpful. She got a chicken pasta Alfredo and I got a shrimp and crab cake sandwich. The pasta was way overdone and mushy. It was even very watery. The chicken was sweet. Sweet chicken and Alfredo was pretty terrible. They said all the chicken has the sweet marinade. They should have specified that on the menu because we would have never ordered sweet chicken especially not with Alfredo sauce. The dish in my opinion was pretty bad. I would give that a 1.5/5. Mine was decent. I liked the dill sauce. The bun was sweet and small for the patty but it was ok. The fries were over salted but they came out piping hot and fresh. Would I eat there again? Probably not. It's a small menu with a lot of chicken dishes. Their signature sweet chicken sauce was a turn off for both of us. It was reasonably priced and the server was nice. Overall I have to give the place a 3.5/5. The waiting when we went in and having ro listen to an employee chatting with her friend was off putting while we waited. Had she acknowledged and said someone was coming would have been fine but she completely ignored us until she finished her conversation before saying anything and that was a good 2-3 minutes. The food was a 2.5/5 and the service from Chelsea was excellent. I can't say the same for the lady that ignored us. I give it a 3/5 for that reason. Rounding it up to 4 only because it was so clean and Chelsea's attendance read more

Village Grill has been my favorite restaurant in Burlington for over 30 years. The food is always consistent and delicious! I highly recommend the Key West chicken, homemade salad dressings, and of course, the chocolate chess pie. Pro tip... You could take a whole pie home really cheap! read more

Stopped here for a Sunday brunch while visiting Burlington. The restaurant was very busy; we were quoted 25 minutes before our table was ready, so we went to the bar to wait. The restaurant was very pretty, with a bright dining room. We had several entrees between our group. The Key West chicken was ok, a bit dry. The shrimp and grits were ok, we had two orders and no one liked the grits. The service was good, the food came out quickly and the staff were attentive. I would go back, but try different entrees as nothing we ordered was a real "wow" read more

This was my first time here and from entering I was already expecting a pleasant dining experience. Our waitress Marilyn was pleasant and friendly. She always remembered our requests. I ordered chicken tenders and they were delicious. My daughter ate hers and mine too. The only suggestions would be to list the option of shrimp and chicken pasta and to let customers know that additional Alfredo sauce is at an extra price. Otherwise I'll visit again when I'm on this side of town. read more

Food was great. Sea salt chips were crisp and flavorful. Grilled chicken salad was huge. I couldn't finish it. Plenty of chicken on it. Our friend had the shrimp and grits . The shrimp were spicier than he liked. Found that next time we should order it with less Cajun seasoning. Rolls were warm but not browned. They looked like Pepperidge farms rolls. Service was great. They've opened in a new location. It's roomier and the high ceilings helped make conversation easier. read more

Great food, very consistent. The servers are very quick and attentive. I haven't had anything here that wasn't good. It's a very cute key west vibe. Fantastic for lunch. The salads are delicious and huge. 10/10 read more

I was visiting Burlington for a few days and the Village Grill was recommended. This is a relaxed Florida Keys vibe place with intimate lighting. Our server, Amanda, was the best. She made sure we got what we wanted and gave some great suggestions. The house salad was fresh and the honey vinaigrette was just the right amount of sweet, salty, and tangy. The shrimp and grits were delicious. The sausage and shrimp were cooked just right and the spiced oil brought everything together wonderfully. read more

Food is usually good. The new location is on the struggle bus a little bit. We was told we had a 45 min wait turned out it was hour and a half. So we left and went to harbor inn and it was great. read more

The new restaurant space is absolutely stunning. Started with the pimento cheese and chips app and it was really nice, but I still miss the alligator bites. I did shrimp and grits which was a winner, creamy and just a little spice. My friend got the crabcake sandwich and loved it. The drivethru for takeout orders is a great new feature. read more

Another Great Meal at Village Tavern! Village Tavern is my favorite restaurant and I have reviewed it a number of times. I won't go into great detail today... I got my usual crab cake but switched up the sides. As sides, I ordered fresh sautéed spinach and garlic mashed potatoes. The spinach was delicious and I will definitely order it in future. The potatoes were not a favorite. They tasted like instant. The manager came out and stopped by each table. My husband asked if the potatoes were instant, and she said, "definitely not". She went on to tell him she'd take him to the kitchen to see, and they had someone constantly peeling potatoes. Regardless, they taste powdery. Our service was very good. The atmosphere is very nice. It's a great place to dine with family or friends. read more

I used to go occasionally, but parking was tight. My son and I tried to go to the new place on a Saturday but there was no parking available and the line was out the door. Will try again. Did not know they had a drive-thru, but will definitely try that. read more

My husband and I have dined here many times. The food is usually consistent. This is my go to place when I want cajun chicken pasta. The sauce differs from time to time but normally good. It took our server a while to get to our table after we were seated. Another server noticed that we had been sitting a while with no service. My husband ordered the shrimp stir fry. Wasn't your typical stir fry but he said it was good. He wanted to add chicken to it but was told he couldn't. The complimentary bread is usually warm and pretty good. The restaurant has an old feel to it. It's dimly lit. There is window seating. read more

This place is amazing!! Me and my hubby have been going since 2018. We have met many friends and the staff have become our family also!!

I enjoyed the she crab very much. It was delightful. First time here. The shrimp tacos were amazing. Clarissa was our waitress and recommended the mashed potatoes. She said they were her favorite . I definitely agreed with her they were slamming with flavor . I also ordered the angus steak with shrimp and another order of mashed potatoes to go with a side Caesar salad . Definitely will be back to try more food on the menu. Oh boy did I overdo it. Sleepiness took over quickly read more

Great restaurant that stays busy, which is a testament to the delicious food and great wait staff they have there! The parking lot is a bit small so there can be a challenge finding parking. The rolls and butter are delicious but I recommend you ask for the oil and spices to dip the bread in! (They won't bring it unless you ask specifically for it) Quality food with excellent taste! I highly recommend the lime and cilantro salmon. (I had the lunch cut) read more

Vintage ambiance felt cozy and perfect for a long brunch with girlfriends. Our server was very pleasant and just the right amount of attention was given. I started off with One Hot Bloody Mary and it was the perfect balance of refreshing and spicy. I would've enjoyed more than one were it not for the drive home. I enjoyed the shrimp tacos. They did not disappoint, they were good although nothing extraordinary to note. According to my friend, the local, so is everything else on the menu. All in all, I would say it's a solid choice where everyone would have something they enjoyed served with a smile. read more

Stopped by while on the road, just passing through town. I was craving shrimp and grits and being in/near the South, I figured now was as good a time as any to stop and grab some! Found this little spot and ordered their shrimp and grits to-go (sorry for the poor presentation/composition of the picture) and enjoyed it while on the road, driving (a difficult feat, to say the least). The dish was delicious! Tons of shrimp, perfectly grilled, and also full of tasty spiced sausage. The grits were smooth and cheesy with lots of flavour and seasonings. I was so pleased all around! read more

Truly a wonderful experience! We've passed this place so many times not knowing what was within, and needless to say, we WILL be back. The food was delicious. From the freshly crisped pita chips that came with the chicken salad, to the perfectly cooked steak, to the delectable kids chicken tenders with fresh fruit, it was a wonderful meal. Our server was attentive but not overbearing. She automatically put my child's drink in a cup with a lid, because she knew better than to put a drink in a glass cup for an active child. The ambiance is very laid back and the music is a delightful subtle addition to the experience. I definitely feel this will become a restaurant that is added into our normal rotation. read more

We met a life long friend at this wonderful restaurant. I enjoyed their Caesar salad with ahi tuna. It was wonderful!
