So sad to see this amazing restaurant close at the end of June... But very excited for the family and their world adventure! The food is always on point! They always have a rotating variety of mimosas which I really appreciate! The food is made to order, so sometimes it takes a little bit, but it's definitely worth it! Take home some of the homemade hot sauce! You won't regret it! read more

Cille And Scoe - Menu - Southern Near Me - Greensboro, North Carolina

It is difficult to write this review being that this place was once one of our favorite places. I know a few months ago they announced they would not be renewing their lease this summer and closing their doors. So for my wife's birthday I thought it would be great to visit this place one last time. I had other new restaurants on our list to try but decided to go here. First, I know it's not in their control but parking, homelessness and dirtiness of downtown was horrendous. I realize it's been awhile since we've been downtown but there is no wonder why places are closing. Second, the service and price of the food was not good. For a table of 4 with less than 1/4 of the restaurant full it took two hours to have a meal. 3 entrees and a kids meal was more than $200 and left hungry. Ouch! Finally, and the most important is the food. I can get past the price and service if the food was still top notch from what I remembered from the last time we were here. However, the plating and presentation was good but the freshness and quality of the food was not good. Pasta was crunchy, steak overcooked, there was a weird almost bad cooking oil aftertaste for anything that was fried. The food was way over salted as well. Pretty bad when a kid won't eat grilled chicken because it tasted funny. Sigh. I hate to see this place go from what we remember but if they are not living up to the same high quality standards we remember, they just need to close already. It's not helping the downtown environment. It will take a lot of convincing to get my back downtown to eat. I don't feel like getting hit up for money multiple times from my parking space to a restaurant and to pay close to $10 to park for that pleasure when it used to be free. read more

The atmosphere was great and the food was good. Had a yummy mimosa flight. Homemade corned beef hash was a little too sweet for me but otherwise cooked to perfection. Perfect amount of char, homemade, just needed a little less sweetness. Everyone else loved their food. Biscuits and gravy, French toast, and Scoe bowl. Glad I got a chance to visit before they close/change hands! I am fully invested in their upcoming travels with their five kids so I will be staying connected! read more

We were in the 'Boro to have lunch and one of our party has a gluten sensitivity. 'cille & 'scoe was unfamiliar to me, but they have several gluten-free options. So incredibly glad that we gave this place a try. It's in an old storefront on Elm in downtown Greensboro which gives it an eclectic vibe. Everyone was very pleased with the food and service! Our waitress, Jordan, was super sweet and happily discussed menu choices and offered suggestions. She also was great at setting expectations because everything is scratch made. This is not fast food! The pulled pork is some of the best I've had in NC. The hash was delicious. Nothing but compliments on the Belgian waffle with a Texas Pete marinated, then fried and glazed with honey, piece of chicken. We started with the The Four, deviled eggs four ways. My fave is definitely the Buffalo blue. The most amazing thing, though, is the gluten-free pancake! It's the size of a dinner plate and about an inch thick. NOT dense or crumble like a lot of gluten-free foods. Tender, fluffy, slightly sweet on its own without the syrup. We were all in awe! Definitely a place we will go back to so we can try more things!!! read more

So much potential, just not the right night. 'Cille and 'Scoe is charming, creative, and feels like it should be at least a 4 or even a 5-star experience. We came in on a quiet Thursday evening, only a few tables and one incredibly hardworking server doing it all, including the bar. Props to her for holding it down! Drinks were excellent. My old fashioned was smooth and balanced, and my wife's mocktail was vibrant and fun. Apps were a mix. Deviled eggs were underwhelming, and the fried okra was heavy on the breading without much spice. But the pimento cheese dip it came with stole the show -- rich, creamy, and gone in minutes. Mains is where it fell apart. I had the house-made pasta with filet and truffle -- great concept, but the pasta was dry and felt like it was made a while ago with barely any sauce. The filet was cooked well, but not enough to carry the dish. My wife's prawn scampi had great flavor, but the crostini underneath was so oil-soaked it was limp. We found out they had just switched from their spring to summer menu, and honestly, it showed. Some dishes still felt like leftovers from the old menu, and when you're charging $40 for pasta, it needs to be a finished product, not a transition piece. Either serve it right or don't let it be an option on the menu. The bones of a great restaurant are here: creative cocktails, fun atmosphere, a team that clearly cares. We'll be back when the menu has found its rhythm, because when this place is on, I bet it's truly special. read more

I was really excited to try this restaurant since it had been on my list for quite a while. When we first arrived, the waitress gave us the history behind the restaurant and asked if we were attending a show at Tanger. We told her we were and she said she was going to note that to make sure we could make it. Given that we arrived at the restaurant at 6 pm for our reservation and the show started at 8 pm, I didn't think we would have any issue; well I was wrong. Everything took so long that we ended up skipping dessert because we would have been late to the show. Even with skipping dessert, we still barely made it in time. The location we were seated was the back two person table right before their back room. That night there was a large party for a graduation celebration in the back room. When people from that room would try to go to the restroom, my husband would have to get out of his seat so they could pass through. Given the price you pay for food here, you shouldn't be having to be squeezed in a seat next to a wall that requires you to move. I don't know if this was unusual for that night but it smelled so bad! I kept trying to figure out if it was the party in the back room who had someone who smelled or if it was coming from the kitchen which seemed to be right behind the wall behind me. Seeing another review that said it smelled like rotten sewer made me feel better that I wasn't crazy. I actually felt like I was smelling a weird mix of hair salon toner and something spoiling. You can imagine this made it hard to enjoy my experience. As for overall feel, it is not what I expected. Given the prices I saw online, I was expecting a fancy, romantic vibe. My husband and I were dressed up to go to the show and felt overdressed. I started by ordering the Dreamsicle cocktail. It was delicious! If you like an Orange Julius, you would like this cocktail. It was like a dessert. My husband got two cocktails, Honey Plum Sour which he really liked and the Brown Butter New Fashioned which was presented with a show of smoke under glass. Between the two he liked the Honey Plum Sour better. I do recommend the cocktails here. As for the food, we ordered The Four (deviled eggs) as an appetizer. Given the price of the deviled eggs was $18, I was surprised to see that it was only 4 halves (2 eggs!). Yes, it was called The Four so I should have known better but I guess maybe I thought it would have been 4 eggs (2 for each flavor). I love deviled eggs but these were all just okay. The garlic and basil one was the best of the four but even that one was just okay. For my dinner entree, I ordered the "This Pasta" which is pasta with filet mignon and black truffle. The dinner entree was actually really good but due to it being a little salty for my taste, I had a hard time finishing it. However, the flavor was good and the filet was tender. Overall, my inclination is not to return and try something else. read more

After hearing good things about this restaurant, I finally made my way here. I dined here alone. Although they have outdoor seating, I opt to sitting at the bar. The tables are for 2 or more. The space is narrow tables hold 2-4 people. Also, it's most barstools. Chair Abe bench seating are at the front in the bay window area. The bartender gave me the history of the restaurant, and 90% of everything sourced is within NC. All food is in house, made from scratch. Because of this, it does take longer for your meal to be served. They also change the menu seasonally. I picked Hen+Bread, which is chicken and waffles, along with eggs. It's all a la carte, by the way. They do serve sample size complimentary foods. Since it's spring, I received 2 strawberry lemon pound muffins. They were so good. I also ordered the Honey Plum Sour cocktail, which was amazing. The eggs were alright. It needed salt for me, but decided against it. Now the chicken and waffles??? It was amazing. So yummy and savory. It's glazed with honey and just so good. I did not use any extra condiments. I will definitely return because there's plenty on the menu I'm willing to try. read more

I booked a reservation online for Valentine's weekend only a week beforehand and they still had spots available. Excited because I heard good things about this place. When we got there we were seated by a wall that smelled pretty bad. Not sure what it was but we had to ask to move to another section to get away from it. The ambience was great otherwise. I loved all the paintings and decor. The service was also out of this world. Loved hearing about the story of the owner. Be prepared to wait for the food. They warn you that it takes a while because everything is made from scratch but it really does take a long time. The food was good (not great), but for the price I expected a lot more in terms of taste and portion sizes. read more

Cille and Scoe -- Greensboro, NC First of all, wow. This restaurant is hands-down one of the best I've been to in a long time. Cille and Scoe gives you that deep Southern, at-home feeling -- like stepping into your grandma's kitchen on a Sunday afternoon. I haven't tasted collard greens this good since my grandma made them for me years ago. And those little cornbread muffins? Absolutely divine. Every single ingredient feels intentional and full of flavor. You can literally taste the love in every bite. My fiancé and I have been here twice now, and we will be Back! The owners are warm, kind, and truly care about their guests. You can tell the staff loves what they do -- there's a joy and pride in every part of the experience, and it shows. Each time we've come, we've been treated like family. The environment is cozy and welcoming, with music that sets the perfect vibe -- not too loud, just right for good conversation. The presentation is beautiful too: fresh flowers plated with each meal reveals their culinary expertise and creativity. Also, I love that all the seating is different but somehow still cohesive, giving it a true cozy vibe. Everything about Cille and Scoe is special -- from the food, to the people, to the atmosphere. No matter what you order, you can't go wrong. Greensboro has a gem right here, and I can't recommend it enough. read more

I have had my eye on Cille & Scoe for a while now and just recently had an opportunity to visit! It was an amazing & immersive experience! The ambiance is warm & welcoming...giving the feeling of walking into a familiar home. Everything is made to order, from scratch!!! The service is friendly and excited about the restaurant offerings. They do share a disclaimer that given the nature of their restaurant, service takes longer than a typical sit-down place. Lots of produce comes directly from the owner's farm or local NC farms and the freshness is definitely recognized! The menu changes with the seasons so you can try something new very often. This summer they are even serving Black Magnolia cinnamon buns which are local as well! Everything was absolutely delicious!!! Plan to go with someone you want to enjoy a nice long conversation with and soak in the slower pace of service. It was refreshing to not feel the rush. Can't wait to go back! read more

We were not very optimistic that we'd snag a table during peak brunch hours but we were sat relatively quickly. In true big backed fashion, we had trouble deciding what to order. Our waitress was spot on with the recommendations. I ordered the special of the day (a biscuit with brisket, egg, cheese, and housemade sauce), but as advised by the waitress, I had to replace the brisket with corned beef since they were out. MAN! I have no idea what they did to that corned beef but it was the best I've ever had. And that sauce! Wow. Spicy and sweet, and I'd never guess that it contained carrots. We also ordered a sweet potato cinnamon roll. Some dishes inspire the chef in me and this was one of them. Simple yet creative and delicious. The fish filet sandwich was amazing. I've never had ciabatta that soft. Perfectly fried fish, fresh, and not too greasy. Still thinking about that pancake as I write this over a month later... My cocktail, the Sweet Potato Martini, was quite what I expected in reading its description, but I still liked it. Can never go wrong with a mimosa flight - loved all flavors. Great playlist at a tolerable volume. Clean and genderless restrooms. Friendly and fun staff. Can't wait to go back! read more

The food might take a while to get to your table, but the flavors will make it worth it. I wanted a real Southern brunch while in Greensboro and Cille and Scoe's menu was most exciting to me. I'm glad I made a reservation ahead of time because the place was packed out for Saturday brunch with a waitlist. The kitchen was definitely a little overwhelmed because our server had to come over like 3 times to let us know our food was on its way-- we probably got our food a good hour after we put in our orders. Once it all hit the table though we dug into shrimp and grits and chicken and waffles. Both were full of flavor, generously portioned, and the heavy flavors left us very sated for hours. I loved the cranberry beer and bloody mary I tried here too. Despite the kitchen being slow our server was so friendly and I appreciated the multiple check-ins. I don't like it when a business doesn't acknowledge when the wait times are going to be longer than anticipated. It's super cute inside, with hanging lights and beautiful art on the walls. read more

The food was excellent, service was great! We ordered the biscuit board and the flavors and textures were sensational. The sausage gravy night be the best I've ever had, and the artisan game was a melt in your mouth good. Our server was enthusiastic about the menu and it was clear she was proud of the restaurant. My advice? Eat here! And ask for Kay - she's great! The one comment I would make on the biscuit board is to include an additional biscuit. We ran out of biscuits way before we ran out of toppings. So we ordered a side of biscuits and then we had way too many! Just a tweak to get the ratio right and it would be perfect. read more

I have wanted to enjoy a meal at Cille and Scoe and we finally made reservations and enjoyed brunch. First off the staff, and I mean everyone we encountered, was upbeat, friendly and attentive. Clearly that is the culture here or a coincidence of cosmic proportions. My wife and I went two very different ways for our brunch meal. I went for their inhouse made corned beef hash while my wife opted for a beet salad. The portions are generous. My hash was killer, and the star was the corned beef. There were tender chunks throughout. I went for the eggs over easy which was perfect to have enough yolk to mix throughout the hash. The potatoes and onions had a crispiness, and the rosemary aioli brought it all together. It tastes as good as it looks in the picture I have included. My wife had the Fall into Beets salad. It is presented on a bed of arugula and along with the beets there are roasted pistachios, goat cheese and the dressing is s mint yogurt vinaigrette. An incredibly fresh looking and tasting plate of greens. She loved the beet carpaccio approach as well. The one caveat if you plan to visit Cille and Scoe is to be patient. Service and their attention to you is prompt. The meals are made to order, so it takes bit longer that some other establishments. The thing is, the wait is more than worth it when your patience is rewarded with an amazing plate of quality, flavorful, beautifully presented food. Nuff said! read more

We enjoyed a slow start to the weekend from our window seat at 'cille and 'scoe. Brunch hit all the right flavor notes with The Winston Bloody Mary (not so secret ingredient: celery bitters), melt in your mouth mini cornbread biscuits struck the right balance between savory and sweet with a light dusting of powdered sugar, a tasty take on a classic cheesesteak with homemade flatbread, and corned beef hash with rosemary aioli accompanied by crispy, buttery breakfast potatoes. Service from Abby was top notch and I can't wait to come back and try some of the other options that caught my eye!

**While I had an overall positive experience during my visit, please read the end of review for why I won't be returning** ---- I arrived at 12pm on a Saturday afternoon for brunch. My date was tasked with locating a brunch spot. I had been here before when they first opened for a Yelp Event. I hadn't been back since, so I was excited to see what brunch would be like. Once inside, we were promptly seated. Service: 5/5 -At 12:02, Sarah came over to start us off & brought us waters. She said that our waiter was doing something & would be with us. She planned to take our drink orders but we weren't ready. -Our waiter, Johlaun, came at 12:09. He gave a spill about the restaurant $ how things are cooked & prepared, noting everything is made fresh, which may result in delayed timing for food. -We ordered mimosa flight at 12:11 with orange juice, pineapple, blood orange, & cranberry. It came at 12:17 -At 12:27, waiter brought over complimentary muffins -We ordered entrees when mimosas arrived. I got the hen & bread w/ a side of hashbrowns. My date got the chicken biscuit w/ a side of grits. The entrees came at 12:52; on 35 minutes after ordering. -After we paid & got containers, I wanted a to go cup. I didn't see our waiter so I stopped Sarah who cheerfully got me one. I must note that Sarah was SO FRIENDLY & welcoming. Her attitude, helpfulness, and vibes were so amazing! Food Quality: 4/5 -Muffins: They were tasty & had a small crunch to them, which wasn't bad, even though I was initially expecting it to be soft. -Mimosas: They were tasty with a good balance of juice & champagne -Hen + Bread: I was hesitant about this since the chicken is marinated in Texas Pete & I'm not a hot sauce guy. While the chicken wasn't spicy, I could taste the Texas Pete. It wasn't overwhelming but noticeable. The honey glaze on top was nice & helped to offset the Texas Pete. I wished the chicken was a crisper than what it was. No complaints with the waffle. -Biscuit & Grits: My date enjoyed their food w/ no complaints. They said it was "great". -Hashbrowns: They were delicious, both dipped in ketchup & without. Presentation: 4/5 -Mimosa flight: They came on a nice board with labels; Most places don't do this, so it was great. -Muffins: Small, crisp top, with powdered sugar; After we both ate one, we noticed a piece of hair on the plate. I looked back at the picture I took & noticed it was there BEFORE we grabbed one. I opted not to bring to attention of waiter since it was complimentary as wasn't directly touching the muffins. Regardless, it was not a pleasant sight. -Hashbrowns: Presented as breakfast potatoes, but it was fine. It was a generous portion. -Entrees: Plated averagely Ambiance & Cleanliness: 5/5 -It was an inviting atmosphere; well-decorated and clean -The chairs are different & w/ some not comfy. My original chair was very uncomfortable & I asked to switch it. My request was granted. -The music selection was great. It could've been turned up a couple notches though. -Restrooms are for anyone; The door can lock for privacy. The restrooms were clean & smelled nice. Value for Money: 4/5 -The mimosa flight was $16. That was expensive for the small amount of mimosa we got, in my opinion -The size of the biscuit ($17) & grits ($7) was HUGE! However, it was a $3 up-charge to simply add cheese to the grits... -I saw a waitress take a pancake to another take it was also HUGE. -I think a side should be included with the entrees, even if that means *slightly* increasing the price of entree -Overall, we actually didn't finish because we got full. Overall Experience: 4/5 -Pretty good experience. The cocktails are little pricey & the hair on the plate was not good. The staff were friendly w/ good food. I would've liked to return but will not be (see below) =26/30 5 star: 29-30 4 star: 24-28 3 star: 19-23 2 star: 14-18 1 star: 6-13 -- *I was disappointed to see the owner, Tara, responding to customer reviews defensively & unprofessionally. As a Yelp Elite & Google Reviewer, I support local businesses, but I cannot support one that handles feedback this way. These were missed opportunities to make things right. If I saw the responses earlier, I wouldve told my date to pick elsewhere. Tara, please work on your responses* read more

We tried Cille and Scoe the very first day they opened and it's been such a treat to see how far they have come since then! We've heard people raving about their brunch so we had to check it out! I am so so so glad we chose this place for brunch. The biscuit board and breakfast pizza are two items I'll think about until I get it again, SO GOOD! I also love that they bring the little complimentary muffins to the table. The mimosa flight had great, unique flavors and cheerwine old fashioned, are you kidding me? Phenomenal! Our waitress was so great checking on us often and making sure we had everything we needed. Great service is half the battle and these guys have a wonderful staff. The only qualm I had is the price point of each item, but I also understand that this is a farm to table restaurant buying their products from local farmers/merchants. But it does make it pretty rare that we get to dine here. Definitely a special occasion spot for us but they've got something very special going on here nonetheless! read more

Cille and Scoe make IMO the best chicken Caesar salad and their fried oyster entree is absolute chefs kiss. My recommendation for anyone wanting to try this place out is to simply order your food to go and here is why. 1. Wait times...are extreme. I've dined in 3 separate times and seasons. My last visit we waited so long for our food (90 minutes) that we asked it be made to go. I think this was due to the server forgetting to placing our order- we ordered a salad and corned beef hash. 2. Smell. I know that many DTGBO businesses have had issues with plumbing but the sewage smell here at times is intense and definitely impacts the flavor of the food. 3. Service...not gonna lie, it feels pretentious. Which is mind boggling to me because of the backstory behind the restaurant. Again, the food is really good and getting it to go- you'll avoid these issues. read more

Went here for brunch this past Saturday, the place was packed, and for good reason, the food is unreal, so damn delicious, it felt criminal to eat! The place had a great vibe, really attentive and kind servers, was a great visit for my husband and I. I got the Peaches and Cream sourdough French toast, sausage and scrambled eggs. So much food, I couldn't possibly eat it all! As someone who doesn't eat gluten but can tolerate real sourdough, it was quite the treat. Sorry I didn't get a pic of my husband's steak omelette, because he inhaled it! They also gave us these mini blueberry lemon muffins while we were waiting, which I could have eaten a dozen of, yum! It's not fast food, it's good food cooked from scratch and that takes time, but I promise it's worth it! Best brunch in Greensboro, in my humble opinion. read more

Had come across this restaurant on a Greensboro itinerary list as well as lists provided by influencers, so was looking forward to trying. I had just had a brunch an hour and a half before, so was not looking for a big meal, but wanted to cross it off my restaurant bucket list. The inside was very cute with a bar and small amount of tables. But I really liked the chef's table, which was a counter guests can sit at to eat while watching the kitchen. As I went by myself, I took advantage of sitting at the counter. After being seated, I was greeted by my waiter, who I believe was also a bartender. After giving me a brief history of the farm to table focus of the restaurant, and pointing out one of the chef's who is a relative of the owners, he gave me the warning the food can take a while to come out due to it's freshness. I heeded his warning, and decided to stay as I was only ordering an omelette which I did not think would take long. What I did not take into account was how many meals were being prepared before my own. Each ticket was being freshly prepared and decorated before the next ticket could be worked on. As I was at the chef's table, I overheard the head chef share with waiters that they were down a chef and tickets were running behind. Given this, I had not received my food until about 30-40 minutes after I had placed my order. Would i say the omelette was worth the wait? No. But would I recommend it to others? Yes My only complaint (aside from the wait time for my food) would be that I would have liked to be checked on more by my server. As he was also the bartender, he was behind the bar a lot. But other servers interacted with me as they waited for their tables' food to be finished and were able to refill my water or answer questions I had about the food read more

I have always spoken, super friendly of 'Cille and Scoe' since my first experience. I have had dinner and brunch at least three times. Recently I want to grab dinner with a friend on a Friday night and had a different experience. I will start by saying the atmosphere, ambience and history of the restaurant are all beautiful and definitely attractive to keeping me coming back. On the night of our visit, there was even live jazz playing, which I was thrilled about. The food is all locally sourced and of great quality. On this particular occasion the head chef was in kitchen and was interacting with guest, however, only interacting with the guest sitting directly in the kitchen window and my friend feeling a bit lacking, but that's only an extra. One of the major draws of this restaurant is the food however the menu is constantly and consistently changing. Along with the dining style. On previous visits for dinner and brunch I was able to have a hearty southern meal cooked well with new inspired takes. They even offered a tasting dinner on one occasion that was phenomenal. However on this instance, it seemed to have changed from a creative southern comfort spot to an upscale reconstruction of southern food. Items were tasty, but serving sizes have diminished greatly while prices were higher. We ordered two appetizers and split an entrée with no alcoholic beverages and our bill was over $100. After finishing dinner, we proceeded to another restaurant (McCouls) to get more reasonable food to not be hungry while breaking the bank. I love all the ideas and concepts at play here but, am missing a good fulfilling plate of food. In this local southern comfort, or an upscale take on southern cuisine? Included food from current and past visits read more

This place is absolutely amazing! The staff is super knowledgeable and love sharing their own preferences and stories about the food. This was hands down one of the best culinary experiences I've had in greensboro. They are so proud of their food. Everything is fresh and seasonal. The recipes and drinks are 100% unique. The chef here was featured on the food network, and I and my friends could clearly see why! The restaurant itself is bright and lovely, but a word of warning about eating outside. It has nothing to do with the restaurant, but rather some of the downtown hustle and bustle can be distracting and, on occasion, uncomfortable. read more

We went on a Friday evening, and the place was weirdly empty. Wake up Greensboro! You are missing out on one of the finest culinary adventures in town. The quality of the food and the presentation were excellent. You can tell the chef knows what he is doing. I had the "swim and run", which had the most tender beef tenderloin with incredible flavor, topped with shrimp in a delectable sauce. Spouse had the gritcakes with shrimp and sausage. She savored every bite. Our server John was responsive and provided great service. Farm to table restaurants sourced from local farms is a nice concept. I just hope Greensboro patronizes this place so it succeeds for years to come. read more

Atmosphere of the restaurant is laid back and perfect brunch place. We ere greeted by friendly staff and expectations were set that food would take a little longer because they cooked everything to order and from scratch.

While we waited we were given small muffins and they were fluffy and sweet, also order a hibiscus brunch drink that had a refreshing taste.

If I could give zero stars, I would. Imagine waiting nearly two hours for dinner only to leave hungry, insulted, and threatened with the police....That was our "dining experience". Highlights: * Ordered at 7:30. Two entrees? "Not available". Third try, finally asked the waiter "what DO you have"? * 50 minutes in: $24 "bread service". One salad came with an entree--- at the same time. Sent it back. * One lonely entree appeared. The others? AWOL for another 15 minutes. * Asked for a manager. Answer: "There isn't one". * By 9:15, still no food. We got up to leave. As we stood, the waiter rushed over with the missing entrees. Too late. When we refused to pay for food we never got the waiter and (owner?) insulted us with "You aren't sophisticated enough to understand, we serve food as it's prepared". (Last time we ate "in shifts" was when we had toddlers!) Then came the kicker: "Pay the full bill or we'll call the police". We paid $225 for bread, wine and insults----then demanded our boxed-up food like it was ransom. Considering the insults that continue to be hurled when anyone dares to write them a negative review, this place has no interest in actually improving. read more

Food was delicious and staff seem to work as a team. We did brunch with the Biscuit Board as the star!!! Lots of items to taste. Took home their giant bowls of grits and winter roasted veggies. Will go again. read more

This was my first visit &last! We waited 1.5 for our food! The waitress never smiled once, she never came to give us updates on why it was taking so long! Finally when the food came out it wasn't hot/nor good to me! The manager pretty much said oh well and walked off! She said their policy is if you order it you pay for it! How about I order something else! They said I would have to pay for it because they don't give out free food! I'm a customer I didn't ask for FREE food! Did I eat it? No The manager then asked what can I do to make it better...I asked for regular grits sake came out with a mini tub of grits!!! You guys should print on the menu that customers aren't first! If you buy it you have to still pay for it if you like it or not! read more

The food was amazing, so was the friendly service, and fabulous drinks. The ambience was divine! I found a super restaurant to go and enjoy a wonderful dinner with friends and family. If you haven't tried this place, go and you will agree with me. read more

Been wanting to give this place a shot after hearing varying reviews from friends. I've been told that the service was not good and it took a long time for the food to arrive, but that wasn't the case for us. The food came in a timely manner and the server we had was sweet. My thoughts are, the food was OK, nothing to rave about, the presentation of the food was nice, but overall it tasted average (especially for the price). I didn't like how they served their water in Sycamore bar glasses, it took away from the "farm to table" vibe and energy of the restaurant. I suggest getting just regular clear glasses because it didn't match the restaurant at all. The cocktails were pretty good, but also overly expensive. I think overall the atmosphere is nice, it's good to have more options to eat in Greensboro. I probably would not come back for dinner, but I've heard the brunch is better so I may come back to give that a shot! read more

Waited over an hour for my food. Not worth the wait. Hope someone with faster service moves into the space when they're gone
