Last night at Twisted Oak American Bar & Grill - got the Buffalo Chicken Sandwich…read more Good sandwich. Foccacia bread was soft but firm enough to hold everything together. The chicken was crispy and sauced excellently. However, the breading did tend to fall off. Would I order again? Yes. Would I run back for this specific sandwich? No, probably not. Those twisted fries with ranch though ‍ were exceptional. Ambiance - chill and dimly lit. Good date night spot. Service - no complaints, nothing to go on about.

Just alright. Waitress was awesome and funny…read more Started with the Twisted Deviled Eggs. The breading was all you could taste. Very disappointed as I love anything that is fried and well put together. This was not it. I had the Filet, medium and it was a bit undercooked. Plenty of blue spots. The steak was pretty "meh." The demi-glace was fantastic! Wife loved her Harvest Pear Salad! More than likely I just picked poorly (except the eggs, they should have been better). We may try again.

Had a horrible experience dealing with them. The owner is difficult to get on the phone and refuses…read moreto use anything but a notebook for his bookings. We originally planned a wedding there but due to costs we decided to use our deposit to have a reception dinner only. When I contacted him we agreed on a date and he was quick to get off the phone. We called 10 days before the event and he has no knowledge of the reception date, he was still planning on the wedding months later. With only 10 days left we decided we're not comfortable continuing because we don't want our 5k dinner for 39 to be an afterthought or thrown together at the last minute. He refuses to take accountability in lack of communication, availability to reach on the phone or negligence in planning so he is refusing a refund of any kind.

I haven't been there in years but know how good it was when Manseur had a restaurant in Lincolnton…read more The food was good and the experience was wonderful. He was a special person to my family. It was a treat to them to eat there when they didn't live there. I was so excited to see that he still is in business in Vale. Being around for this long speaks for itself. Am really happy for him. Hope he will continue what's he's doing I believe you will have an a good time and meal from my own experience. Hopefully you will give it a try and the setting was unique.

Coffee flights at Footnote are the kind of downtown Winston-Salem experience that just feels…read morespecial They're excellent every time, with seasonal flavors that keep each visit feeling fresh and worth coming back for. One of the best parts is how thoughtfully they can make the flights allergy accommodating, so everyone gets to enjoy the experience without missing out. Served on a beautiful wooden board, each pour lets you slow down and savor something different, from silky smooth lattes to rich espresso-forward sips topped with the perfect foam. It's cozy, elevated, and perfect for catch-up dates, work breaks, or a quiet downtown reset. The ability to sample multiple flavors, discover a seasonal favorite, and have it customized to your needs makes this one of the most fun coffee experiences in Winston-Salem.

Footnote is such a gem. I visited during their Siren Series jazz performance, and the ambiance was…read moreincredible. It was intimate, soulful, and effortlessly cool. The live music set the perfect tone for the evening. I ordered an espresso martini and my friend ordered a dirty chai, and both were excellent. The espresso martini was smooth and well-balanced. I then ordered a dirty chai myself and it was cozy, spiced, and comforting. The location adds to the charm--Footnote is connected to Bookmarks, a wonderful bookstore, making it a perfect stop for drinks after browsing. If you love great drinks, live jazz, and a creative atmosphere, this place is a must-visit.

This is one of those cherished local secrets- a real 'mom & pop' family fun place…read more It's a gem in our area offering homegrown treasures & experiences for all ages at a modest price. I've shopped at their country store a few times for good, hard-to-find items & gifts- their goat milk soap is award-winning. Went to the 2024 fall festival to play & pick pumpkins. (Writing this ahead of our upcoming festival visit and hoping for the same unique tasty apple cider slushy.) Anyway, I don't remember doing much pumpkin-picking but what stood out was the vibe-- starting with a sweet hayride in from the parking lot, through a forest, & out to a larger festival zone. Most workers were happy to be there (& it shows). We felt welcome- even tho we were there at the last event wknd & towards the very end of a hot day. Ambiance: I like that we were allowed to look and linger, shoot hoops, all kinds of stuff. Just mellow fun. (I shot hoops 'against' a little kid there with her granny- won't tell you who won.) There are several places to take selfies and pictures, & just celebrate Fall. We don't have small kids (pumpkin picking here was more for them I feel) but we had a blast enjoying all that was available with basic admission. To sum up: Played games, shopped, & visited with animals- including attempted feeding of friendly baby turkeys- which was a little tough-- long story. Loved meeting the little pony named 'Flapjack'? (Note: it wasn't roller coaster rides or turbo-charged pumpkin cannons- but that's not what we expected or wanted.) I liked that we could see other couples & many families making memories (& likely traditions) together. Looking forward to my visit on Saturday- I'll update with more pics. (And a pic of that slushy!) Highly recommend.

Another cute concept ! Coffee shop and wine bar ! With small plates and desserts …read more Super service and just the neatest decor ! Bright, colorful and great esthetics . Great menu items for coffee and tea and wine and cocktail drinkers. I had the cappuccino and my friend had a tea. We chose the chocolate vanilla coffee cake as our sweet treat. I love the dainty little cups for the coffee, and the gold spoon ! The cake was excellent. Different kinda coffee cake, more European. Not too sweet and perfect with a coffee. Indoor seating is couches and comfy chairs . Outside they have a great patio with plenty of seats and it's covered ! They also have parking so that always a plus. Like to come back to try their cocktails and small plates one day. Wish they stayed open later though.

Made in a wood fire oven the crust and overall pizza was absolutely the top that I have had recently. The creek if you want to walk down to it was very nice as well. I guess Elkin Creek is on the muddy side, but still quaint and nice to look at as well. Now the wine, I was not blown away unfortunately and each, had a way of making me think I was tasting some type of Kombucha due to the spices used in them an a lingering flavor. I couldn't put my finger on it, but it was that way through all of the six wines we tasted.

Pizza that we ordered was delicious, with brie and bacon and the perfect thinness. It was quite large as well for $21 and we're still thinking about that pizza. But the wines, oh no, I never went to a winery where the wines tasted like they had a vinegar aftertaste. The only one we could stomach was the "soft white". We ordered a bottle of it to have with the Pizza and then walked around the premises to enjoy the creek. We're sad in our hearts that the wine just wasn't our taste, but if you want great wood fire pizza and a beautiful location, definitely come here.

They would definitely recommend playing around as well!!! Cheers!
