*update May 17, 2026…read more The local manager reached out and I'm impressed. No excuses, but an apology and they are sending a gift card. Here's what I value--old school customer service--I will try them again when we travel that way because they reached out to do the right thing. I'm hopeful and will give them another try. The folks there were frantically trying to fill orders and I'll give them credit. However, when we picked up our order (it wasn't ready on time), it was wrong, awful quality and ended up being inedible. The pulled pork lacked flavor, the portions of the sides was small and the Brunswick Stew was nasty. And I love Brunswick Stew. The pecan pie was some kind of gross blob of gel that tastes nothing like pecan pie. I'm so utterly disappointed. For context, we'd been traveling all day and just wanted some comfort food in our bellies and rest up for the rest of our trip. Such a bummer.

Whole Truth Lunchroom has a great mission, and the food definitely lived up to the experience…read more Everything tasted fresh and well-prepared. The fried chicken was crispy and fried hard just the way I like it, with plenty of flavor in every bite. The greens were seasoned perfectly, and the yams were sweet with a great texture--not too hard and not too soft. I visited on a hot summer day, and the restaurant can get pretty loud and a little stuffy when it's busy. Thankfully, they had fans placed throughout the space, which made it much more comfortable. Overall, I enjoyed both the food and the atmosphere. If you're looking for good soul food and want to support a place with a meaningful mission, Whole Truth Lunchroom is worth a visit. I'd definitely go back.

As I said in the store, this was the cleanest KFC I have ever been in. I eat a lot on the road, and…read moreunlike the KFC in Roanoke Rapids, NC, I did not slip and slide across the floor, nor did my feet stick to the floor as they do in Emporia, VA. The store smelled like fried chicken, not old fryer oil. The assistant manager was even out on the floor helping clean, moving booths and trash cans and sweeping and mopping the floor. I am a former food service manager, and am rarely impressed enough to comment on the cleanliness of a restaurant. Not only did I comment on it to the shift leader and the assistant manager, I had the assistant manager get her district manager on the phone and told her in person. In addition to being clean-front and back-every part of the building that I could see was clean-all of the employees were clean, well kept, polite and even friendly (really, the guy pulling the garbage in the back did not have to say good evening, but he did). We both had the $5 fill up with Chicken Tenders, one with Cole Slaw and one with Potato Wedges. Everything was hot and fresh.

Everything was great, including the customer service!

My first time at Guava Island, a very casusl cool vibe, friendly local hidden gem, tucked away in a…read morenon-descript strip mall not far from City Lake Park in Rocky Mount. They serve good Jamaican food and have a full bar. I found the restaurant on Google when I searched for affordable restaurants nearby. I loved Guava Island. When I walked in on a Thursday around 5:30 p.m., it was very quiet, with 1 person at the bar. Take out and eat in business picked up as dinner time rolled around. I'm glad I decided to eat at the bar because that's where all the action happens! I enjoyed watching the interaction between the warm and friendly co-owner (co-owns with his sister) and the customers. The owner is originally from Jamaica and he's a U. S. Army veteran! Besides the good food, another reason to support this black-owned, veteran business! Dinners with 2 sides range between $12 to $17. Oxtails are $17. I had the $12 spicy jerk chicken with macaroni and cheese and cabbage. The jerk chicken and mac & cheese were delicious. The cabbage needed a lot more flavor. The guava punch was very good, though too sweet for my taste so I added water and it was perfect. I highly recommend this place. I will definitely go back.Check it out.

I'm not sure where to start here folks. On my way down to Florida I was determined to stop in NC…read morefor some of the famous barbecue. I stopped at this place and, I have to say, if this is NC BBQ then I've been misled. First of all, the decor. I should have walked out immediately upon smelling the carpet but I'd just driven for 8 hours and I wanted something hot to eat that didn't come from a Cracker Barrel. There are dirty fish tanks with turtles (yes, turtles) all around, and stuffed animals in the restaurant, including a full sized stuffed bear wearing a baseball cap. If the design decisions weren't bad enough, the cooking is worse. They left the silver skin on their ribs. People of NC, are you going to let an armature mistake like that represent your Q? It was overcooked and mushy. The sauce was over sweet with none of the wonderful vinegar hints that you expect from NC Q. Horrible. Shouldn't be in business.
