Black Circle Bistro in Beckley, WV just keeps proving it wasn't a fluke…read more Last time, I raved about an amazing server and true ambassador of the place named Jace. So naturally I wondered... could there possibly be more where that came from? Why yes -- Tyler is her name, and she was absolutely phenomenal Handling a surprise, out-of-nowhere busy night solo, and doing it with grace, warmth, and hustle. Meanwhile, the Queens in the back -- Stella and Sarah -- worked their magic and made me something special tonight aptly named "The Queen": the Bistro's take on a classic French dip And for context... I've eaten more French dips than I can count, including the Real Deal from Philippe The Original in LA. This one? Really good. Perfectly seasoned, beautifully dressed with veggies, fantastic local bread, and as always... THOSE CHIPS. Add a side of the onion dip and honestly -- my God so good. Thank you again, Black Circle Bistro, for another unforgettable trip through the menu. Many more to come. (And yes, I didn't take photos -- I know, I'm the worst. They absolutely deserved them )

Little Sicily - A Mediterranean Hug After a Long Day on the Trails…read more After hiking all day, stumbling upon Little Sicily felt like the universe handing us a tiny edible gift. Beckley surprised us once again, this spot turned out to be such a delicious treasure that we kept coming back like well-trained food pilgrims. The food was fantastic. Truly. Some of the best chicken shawarma, hummus, and tabouli I've had in ages, fresh, flavorful, and made with clear love. The kind of meal that makes your tired hiking muscles perk up and whisper, "Oh yes, this is the good life." Service was friendly, warm, and helpful with recommendations, the kind of staff who genuinely wants you to enjoy what you order. Honestly, I found myself wishing we had a place like this back home so I could grab big platters for a party and impress everyone without lifting a finger. A traveler can dream. A great little spot, comforting and delicious, exactly what you hope to find when you're hungry, tired, and ready to be fed well.

I was surprised to find it in the same building as a Dollar General. We ordered firecracker shrimp as a starter and Michele got the Chicken Parmesan with a side salad and I ordered a Porketta sandwich, which is marinaded pork tenderloin, with a side salad and BC dressing. The server was very friendly and accommodating. The restaurant was nicely decorated and seems very casual.

The falafel were wonderful and highly recommended. This wasn't my favorite hummus, not as much flavor as I like. Needs lots more lemon but that's my taste. Beautiful pita. RRR tried the chicken lettuce wrap and loved it. I tried a bite of the chicken mixture and it was really great. The Sticky Toffee Bread Pudding was just too tempting so that had to be tasted. Delicious with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Decided to try it because we try to avoid chain restaurants. OMG. So glad we did. Wanted spaghetti until I saw their Pizza. So ordered pizza which was delicious. Thin crust and cheesy. Then I saw spaghetti so had to order side dish. Best spaghetti sauce. Nice and meaty. Topped it all off with Italian wedding soup. The service was awesome. Everyone friendly and attentive. Misty was our server. She was so good and sweet. She probably thought we were crazy when we kept adding to our order. She always had a smile and patience. Would highly recommend this place. The cooks were awesome too. I'd give it 10 stars if I could

It was spicy marinara sauce, shrimp and spaghetti. I asked for xtra sauce because many places don't put enough on. While I was waiting I looked around and had wished I ordered a pizza. That was the best looking pizza I've seen in forever. Loaded down with toppings. The sandwiches also looked good. When I received my salad it was very fresh and they were not stingy with the dressing. It was perfect. When my spaghetti came I loved the huge shrimp on it. My only problem was the xtra sauce. Totally my fault I asked for it not realizing this restaurant was different. There was so much sauce it was watery. Like I said my fault. So don't order extra sauce. When I am back in the area I am definitely going to come back and try the pizza

The craft area of handcrafted merchandise has become not as sophisticated and high end workmanship. I noticed that change the last time I stopped through so that was disappointing. I used to often browse for gifts but that time nothing much to see. But on to my main thing -- the food. I'm actually heartbroken that now it's not in any way what it was. I learned that a few years back The Greenbrier Hotel stopped operating the dining room. And it shows -- they have remodeled and added tables. You no longer go through the cafeteria w the chance to see the grill and the food. And the food is pretty low to average score. The fried green tomatoes used to be pan cook w cornmeal and now battered and deep fried -- terrible the vegetable plate used to be amazing but barely edible. The cornbread used to be a large tender square delish but now a couple of tasteless muffins. My plate was served quickly and the food was barely warm. My friend's meal was very average, the salmon. The other was the soup and a side vegetable. Again average. I'm not sure why they lost The Greenbrier but it's not worth the cost. Still a nice place to walk around and stretch your legs but the food isn't worth the price and the crafts not at a high level. So a very disappointing meal. So you've been forewarned. All good things must come to an end.

This place is a bit of a delightful plot twist. From the outside, you might expect the usual--but step inside and suddenly you're in a cozy little universe where the cocktails are dangerously good (and somehow still kind to your wallet), the bar feels like home base, and the food? Way more scratch-made magic than you'd ever guess. And let's talk about Amy. If hospitality were an Olympic sport, she'd have a gold medal and a signature cocktail named after her. Attentive without hovering, friendly without forcing it--just pure, effortless excellence. Whether you're a road warrior passing through or a local in need of a reliable good time, Cheddars delivers that rare combo: great vibe, great food, zero regrets. Go hungry. Leave happy. Possibly stay for one more round than you planned.

My husband ordered the Monte Cristo because he was craving sweet and savory and of course I sampled some for myself. The jam was fantastic! I had the Dijon chicken with broccoli cheese casserole and it was like eating at my grandma's house. Everything was delish and the prices here are so good. I also love that they give you a buttery croissant instead of a dry roll or biscuit. It elevates the meal while still keeping that homemade vibe.

Say to come in 5 min for pick up. Inside, no order, so I reorder again. Leave, go to car, order all wrong. Go back inside so annoyed, the Mgr is awful. Does. Not. Care. Gives me the lettuce tomat in a container, no mayo, take a packet. Doesn't care, said I am just one customer and I don't matter in the grand scheme. Horrible all around. I fed sub to my 2 dogs. What a really bad experience. Don't go to this place at all. So, so very bad! The owners need to see how these 4-6 guys operate when they are not around. If my business, all fired. Hire good people and pay them a few bucks more so they will care. Ppl go back to places when treated right. 0 stars.
