3 Whole Wing Dinner w/ 2 sides
TaWanna A.

I had heard a lot of great things about this restaurant and finally ordered take out. I ordered the 3 Whole Wing Dinner w/ 2 sides. I chose mac n cheese and fried okra. The sides are very small for the price point and my roll was not included. The food could use seasoning. For this place to be so out of the way, it is not worth it for take out as the restaurant does not properly prep for a long drive. There are ways that the food could be packaged to preserve some of the heat. The meat should be wrapped in foil to keep the styrofoam box from making it soggy. The restaurant is quaint but for the price, there are better soul food options. Lack of seasoning and tiny portions are a turn off.

We've driven by this location many times since moving to the area a little over two years ago. To the best of our knowledge, the building was most recently Andy's Chicken and Beer and prior to that, Ted's Kickin Chicken. A few months ago we noticed the sign out front advertising Crave. We did a bit of looking online and discovered Crave Southern Palate would soon be opening. My wife began to follow them on social media and we've been anxious to try them. It's hard to believe but today they confirmed they've already been open for two months. We arrived about 3pm on Sunday afternoon. If you are familiar with this location, you know it is very simple from the exterior. We parked in the gravel parking lot and entered through the front door. Upon opening the door, we were very impressed with the interior. It is like walking into a building and not expecting the change from the outside. Our guess, since we've never been inside before is they have completely refreshed the interior. In addition to the counter seating there are also several booths and high top tables. An interesting touch at each of the counter seats is the label from what appears to be an airplane which reads "LIFE VEST UNDER YOUR SEAT" or "FASTEN SEAT BELT WHEN SEATED". We were immediately greeted by the young woman behind the counter and we took a seat. There was a menu on the table and she was quick to bring us another. She also took our drink orders. We could see they have wine and beer options but we decided on a Diet Pepsi and ice water with lemon. We had already looked over the menu before arriving today and asked our server about some of her favorite items. She told us she loves the fried pork chop, wings and burgers. We asked her about her favorite sides and she told us she loves the candied yams, collards, and mac and cheese. My wife was anxious to try the fried pork chop and chose the candied yams and salad as her sides. I chose the cheeseburger with cheese and onions only with fries. I also added a side of baked mac n cheese. After our drinks were served, our server also brought us two sweet potato cornbread muffins. Our orders arrived about 15 minutes later and looked delicious. We were a bit surprised to see the yams and mac and cheese in to-go containers with lids and the salad in a clear to-go container. Below is how we ranked the items we ordered: The Mac n Cheese - 10/10, it was flavorful and very cheesy. I considered getting an order to-go for my lunch during the week at work. The Fried Pork Chop - 10/10, first time trying and instant fan Candied Yams - 10/10, delicious Sweet Potato Cornbread Muffins - 10/10 Side Salad - 8/10, the ranch didn't taste homemade and in order to give a 10/10 we need homemade ranch dressing. Fries - 5/10, they needed more seasoning and we prefer more crunch to the exterior. Don't get me wrong, they hit the spot with a little ketchup. Cheeseburger - 7/10, overall it was a decent burger but I wasn't asked how I wanted it cooked, and I would have loved bacon as an option to upgrade. I was asked what I wanted on it verses having the option choices somewhere to pick from. Chili and pimento cheese are both good Southern options but we assume they do not have them. We will absolutely come back and encourage others to check them out. We do feel the interior suggests they intend to make it more intimate and upscale, however, the food is presented in "to-go" type packaging and served with packaged plastic utensils. We hope they can determine a way to offer dine in customers with non to-go containers and real silverware instead of plastic.

This restaurant recently opened at this location, which is basically a little beyond the middle of nowhere. This spot previously housed Ted's and then Andy's - both of which flew the coop! The outside is plain and rather worn looking, painted a soft gray. The inside has been nicely upfitted - soft color, a combination of booths and high tables, as well as a half a dozen spools at the small bar area! There are 4 large screen TVs spread around the small interior. There is some outside seating, as well. The menu is rather small - wings, tenders, burgers, hot dogs, chicken sandwich, a small number of dinners including wings, tenders, fried pork chop, and baked chicken, as well as 10 side dishes. They do offer some lunch specials, including a pork chop sandwich with FF. I ordered the Pork Chop dinner, with sides of Mac & cheese and collards. This was a large, very flavorful, bone-in pork chop, among the best I've tasted in a restaurant. The two sides were very nice as well, and the portions were adequate. The items here are very much on the pricey side - the 1pork chop dinner with 2 sides rang up at $20! Three Whole Wings with 2 sides comes in at $20. The Chicken Sandwich with FF costs $12, as does the Cheeseburger with FF. 3 Chicken tenders with FF costs $13. In way of comparison, Southern Spice in Bermuda Run offers 2 nicely sized bone-in chops with 2 sides that are plentiful for $9.75! Omega House also has the same plate with at least the size of Southern Spice for $9.70. Ambiance - 3.5 Food - 4.5 Service - 4.5 Value - 2

Mac and cheese, baked beans salmon bites
leuwell w.

Nice restaurant very small, menu isn't vast one page to be exact. I ordered a special which was salmon bites, I got two sides, mac and cheese was very delicious, cheesy and flavorful. Baked beans very good as well taste a hint of brown sugar. The homie got baked chicken it's what I should have ordered, the collard greens were seasoned well, and the yams taste like dessert. The salmon bites in my opinion were to salty. If I'm in the area I will definitely try it again.

So we went to try Crave out. It's about a 22 minute drive from where we live. We got there, and were greeted once we walked in. It's a small yet cozy spot. The staff was friendly and the place was clean. The ambiance is nice, music playing while eating your food. So together, my husband and I ordered chicken wings, collard greens, macaroni and cheese, rice and gravy, and sweet potato yams. The food was piping hot when we received it. The wings were good & hot, I only felt like they needed to be seasoned a little more. The greens were good. I didn't try his rice with gravy, so can't speak on that item. The yams were good, not overly sweet. Now that Mac, in my opinion it needed some work. It had a good flavor, but it lacking the cheesiness, it was dry. I also ordered a sweet tea and that was good to my liking. Overall, I'd give this place another try, but would just order something else instead of the macaroni.

This was the spot! I got a double cheeseburger and it was cooked perfectly medium rare. Just enough pink without being 'undercooked'. It was delicious. I also got a hot dog, a Carolina dog it was called. The coleslaw on top was crispy and delicious! The other ingredients on it were perfectly portioned so nothing overpowered the hotdog at all; everything on it complimented the dog so very well. My wife got a Cuban burrito and absolutely loved it! Our party got some other hotdogs and burgers; all happy campers! Along with the burritos they brought chips; which tasted homemade. They were crispy and fresh. Now this place is know for bringing some heat on their offerings; and we did not order anything hot or spicy like that. Maybe next time! Other than that - this place was a treat. For seven of us the tab was under 100$ - which lately - that is a bargain. (For comparison when we were on the road - we stopped at a WaffleHouse which brought the tab to $104; and their food is hot garbage). So in summary - a 10/10 dining experience which we'll be excited to come back to! I should have taken pictures; but, I think the ones online do a sufficient job. I'll take some photos next trip! Thank you FSBWB! We can't wait to come back!

A…read moretraditional brewhouse interior, with a list of taps available and a concise menu of mostly pub grub. Burgers and such. We were greeted walking in and told to sit where we liked, so we grabbed a table by a window and took a seat. Our server arrived a few minutes later with menus and took our drink orders. We ordered a basket of fried pickles and peppers to start and they arrived within about ten minutes. Golden brown batter fried, dill pickles and banana peppers, salty, tangy, crunchy, spicy, tasty. A good start. I opted for the dirty south burger, a chili cheddar cheese burger with slaw, jalepenos, and fried onions with mayo and mustard. A hearty burger, dripping chilli sauce, crunchy onions, and jalepenos. A good choice. An odd selection of drafts for a brewhouse? A lot of small craft signs on the wall but not on the board? Anyways, ordered a draft yuengling which was good. But I was looking for the local or even regional microbrew taps and they were not here. The appetizer was really good, the burger okay but the brew selection... sort of a let down 3.5 Stars rounded up for the kind staff all in all worth a stop and visit 01233

We walked inside and were promptly seated, provided menus and offered drinks. This experience is not what we anticipated. There were several other tables and booths occupied and my wife noticed none of them appeared to have any food on their tables. We perused the menu and placed our orders. My wife chose the grilled chicken salad and I decided on the Cadillac Burger with mac and cheese. As we waited, we watched a family get up and leave. They told the server they would pay for there appetizer and drinks but since they did not receive there entrees, they were not going to pay for them. A short while later, we watched people at two other tables get up and leave as well. My wife asked our server what was going on and we were told they only had one cook. We hadn't waited long but we asked our server about our order and we were assured our order would be out shortly. Our orders were brought to our table not long after that. We did not feel we waited too long. Everything was correct and looked great. As we proceeded eat, they started turning away customers that came in and we heard they decided to close the restaurant for the day. We both really enjoyed our meals. The Cadillac burger was much more than I expected and tasted really good. I ended up taking half home because it was that big. I also thought the mac and cheese was tasty. Our table service was good and we felt taken care of. Although, our personal experience was good, the overall experience was off. We felt sorry for the cook and servers. Based on the entire experience we are giving this review three stars. But the sole cook deserves a 5+ star review because our meals were great considering everything else.

Full disclosure, this place used to be a staple for us. When we moved to the Clemmons area years…read moreago, we would visit them quite frequently. And the food was always on point. To go orders were always fresh and cooked very well, and the few times we dined in, the service was good as well. The reason I'm giving it 3 stars has to do moreso with the past 3 experiences we've had with them. All were to go orders mind you, but there's been a drop off with the food. A few yrs ago, we ordered a chef salad that had all sorts of toppings with it. Unfortunately, the spiral pinwheel filled with meats and cheese had spoiled salami in it. I called and told them what happened and they made it right by comping our next meal there. We gave them another try and the food was ok. We normally get their wings, pizza, salad and maybe another side or 2, but that's usually our go to. The wings we ordered the following visit were dry...even the sauces they were tossed in couldn't save it. So we decided to give them another try tonight since it's been awhile. Ordered wings with a salad and onion rings. These wings weren't dry this time. However, they were not crispy at all. We expect the sauce to contribute to that some, but in this case, that made them more soggy and somewhat chewy? I may not be making much sense in my description, but let's just say I've had way better wings from them and from other places. The skin wasn't crispy at all. The salad was good....nothing out of the ordinary with this one. The only thing that stood out were the onion rings. Oh and their ranch. Their ranch, in my opinion, is the best around. It has to be homemade. I know its been awhile since we've visited them, but we may have to try a pizza from here the next time. I'm not giving them less than 3 stars because I also saw where they're understaffed currently so I do wanna give them some grace. They have plenty of food options there, but when their wings are cooked right like before, they're the best in the area.
