I opted for the Vicious which is a cheddar jalapeno biscuit, crispy chicken, maple sausage gravy, cowboy candy which is like sweet grilled jalapenos and syrup. Normally,my breakfasts are not so hearty but this was a delicious treat. I also opted for a loaded bloody mary which was solid. This is the kind of spot where you pay at the counter and they bring your food to your table. It's casual, service is friendly, and the dish was under $13. The spot has ample parking and is pretty spacious as well.

This place has so much charm and feels like home. You can tell it's a spot locals come to often and there's a real sense of community, even though Boone is more of a touristy town. They have a little art vending machine and the checks come out in an actual book. Every dish the girls had was a 10/10 so don't worry about ordering the wrong thing. We parked in a paid lot about two blocks away which wasn't too bad. Definitely worth a visit!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

In retrospect, I should've known better than to order the "Ultimate Benedict" special at Sunrise…read moreGrill based on its description: "Two poached eggs over brisket hash and English muffins, topped with a house-made mushroom gravy." Over twenty minutes and a coffee refill later, I'm thinking, "Why is toasting a muffin and assembling a breakfast decidedly not made-to-order taking so long?" My waiter explained that other tables were ahead of me, as if I didn't know how time works, and the chef came out to tell me she's "right on it," instead of just finishing a five-minute-max meal. When it was finally delivered, edge of the plate dripping with packet-brown-gravy and canned mushrooms, I wished I hadn't missed a meal instead. Cubed(!) yet undercooked potatoes with machine-diced onions accompanied what technically counts as brisket, with zero thought towards presentation, together with my $3 brew came to just over $25 with tip. "Special" indeed. Fool me once...

Proper is just that, a quaint and popular restaurant that features the chef's special select menu each day which means reservations are highly suggested. We were lucky enough to arrive right before peak dinner time and was able to score a spot to the front overlooking the chefs garden where ingredients are home grown. We started with their carrot and apple soup with coconut milk base. I know this is tmi but I'd be satisfied swimming in a pool of that delicious soup. Fresh, fresh and fresh. I decided on the baked catfish with olives, tomatoes and thyme together with green beans potato casserole and side salad while my partner enjoyed fried chicken breast with potatoes and gravy, steamed cabbage and cornbread. Very few can take a boneless fried chicken to taste like it's still on the bone. Excellently done. We then savored on their recommended dessert chocolate chip bread pudding with homemade ice cream. If you're in the neighborhood give this quaint little house a try you won't be disappointed.

It might have just been the holiday rush, but I always figure "busy means good," so my expectations were high--and The Local didn't disappoint. We started with the nachos; they were delicious, though I do wish they came with a bit more meat. For mains, the burger was outstanding--probably one of the best we've had in the entire area. We also ordered the Brazilian steak, which was cooked perfectly and came with great plantains. The quinoa with tofu was good, too, though it was a little dry and would have been perfect with a sauce. The service really stood out. Our waitress was incredibly attentive and refilled my water at least four times without me asking. Great ambiance and an all-around good experience. Definitely worth the wait!

If you want more of something just ask. It was a great experience. I really like the country fried steak, it was great with the gravy. All the dessert and side dishes also excellent. The plain biscuits were great, but the country ham was so salty, I am not used to the taste. Also the fried chicken breading was so salty too, the chicken cooked well but way too salty. If the fried chicken wasn't that salty I would have gave it a higher rating. Will I try this place again sure, but more for special occasions.
