I noticed how clean the kitchen was.
Alex G.

Such a cool little diner with an old skool feel to it. Came into Burlington for the day and got hungry. This place seemed good by the reviews. Ordered a double burger with totts. The burger was so good but it definitely was too big for me to finish. The tater tots were cooked perfectly also. The food was great and the service shines here. I can't remember my servers name but she told me that she does real estate on the side. She was excellent and kept checking in. I will definitely return. I would give this place six if I could.

Country style steak, mashed potatoes with gravy, fried okra, and Texas toast.

This was our first visit to Danny's Cafe, but definitely will not be our last! The food was delicious and seasoned very well. The pork chop was tender and juicy and the cucumber salad was light and refreshing. Our server took the time to speak with us for a few minutes, and she went throughly went over the menu and their daily offerings. The prices were really fair too. We'll be visiting again very soon!

There is a single row of booths along the wall.

I have to say, I love their chicken and BBQ. The two times I've gone the food has been made to…read moreorder, hot, fresh and fried to perfection. The service is always friendly. I am giving it four stars because each time I have gone with friends there is mention of how the restaurant reminds them of segregation in the 60's. It does give a slight boycott vibe that doesn't sit well, and makes me question my support. Have to be honest.

My First Visit to Smithfield's -- And Probably My Last…read more I normally don't take the time to write reviews, but this experience was disappointing enough that I felt I had to share it. While traveling through Burlington, North Carolina, I saw the signs for Smithfield's Chicken 'N Bar-B-Q and decided to give it a try. Since I live in Georgia, where there aren't any Smithfield's locations near me, I thought it would be worth stopping. I ordered the large shrimp platter with coleslaw and potato salad. I assumed the small and large shrimp platters might refer to the size of the shrimp. Nope! The difference is simply the amount of shrimp you get. Lesson learned! I took my order to go, and when I got to my car, I found two cardboard platters in the bag. One had shrimp, fries, hush puppies, and coleslaw. The other had additional shrimp and three more hush puppies. What I didn't find were any napkins or plastic utensils. When you're traveling and taking food to go, those are pretty basic things to include. I also ordered potato salad, but I honestly forgot about it until I was already on the highway heading south to Georgia, so I can't say for certain whether it was missing or whether I simply overlooked it when checking my order. Now, let's talk about the shrimp. You know those tiny little shrimp you sometimes find in shrimp salad at a buffet? That's exactly what these reminded me of! There must have been around 50 of them, although I lost count, and some were ridiculously tiny. They had a little flavor, but they lacked that satisfying shrimp taste you expect when ordering a shrimp platter. The fries weren't something I particularly wanted, since they weren't what I had ordered. The hush puppies were okay, I guess, but they were shaped more like chicken fingers than the hush puppies I was expecting. Overall, this was not the introduction to Smithfield's that I had hoped for. Maybe I should have ordered the chicken instead! If you're specifically looking for shrimp, I honestly think you'd be better off trying Captain D's or even Long John Silver's. Unfortunately, my first visit to Smithfield's will probably be my last. I was looking forward to trying something new while traveling through North Carolina, but I left disappointed. Based on this experience, I wouldn't go out of my way to return.

3.5 rounded up to a 4…read more Burlington's restaurant choices are limited. This is a good choice if you're super hungry and need a date location in Burlington. We were seated within 5 minutes and our server was attentive and nice. Cozy ambience with low romantic lighting. Great for a date. Love all the beautiful flowers in the outdoor garden near the entrance. Food was very tasty but also very rich and heavy. Portions are large so you may want to order a lunch portion if you're not bringing a huge appetite. My Chicken Parmagiano was delicious but 3 people could have split it (I wasn't super hungry). My partner's Alfredo (he added shrimp) was too oily for his taste, but it was good. We both felt sluggish and needed a nap after eating which is not our norm; we generally eat lighter dishes like salads. I recommend that the restaurant start adding a birthday dessert or something special for guests celebrating their birthday at the restaurant.

The staff here is delightful and sweet. They try really hard to help with questions you might have…read more The food is... ok? Not great, it's perfect for elderly people who can't have much spice or salt. It's quiet and relaxed and has a good amount of tables. Since Burlington doesn't have much Italian restaurants open on Sunday, this is probably the only option. I can't say I'd come back though. The pasta is all angel hair even though the menu says spaghetti. I expect multiple types of pasta at an Italian restaurant. So that's disappointing.

They…read morehave a small outdoor patio, the main seating area and bar, and a separate connected room with several larger tables for groups of four or more. My husband and I stopped in on a Thursday evening around 7pm and the place was pretty full. We sat ourselves at a table in the back room, and I noticed how laid back the place was, which is something I really appreciate. Sadly, it seemed that the relaxed vibe extended a bit too far and reflected on their cleanliness, as I noticed all of the chair rails were dusty, the floors a bit littered, our table sticky, and the plastic menus in need of replacing. Service, however, was wonderful. Our waitress was friendly and pretty attentive given how busy she was. My husband was happy with their on tap beer selection, deciding on Red Oak ($3 on Thursdays!). I went with a margarita and it wasn't the best, but thankfully I didn't pay much for it since it was also on special. They were out of the southwestern egg rolls I initially ordered, so I ended up going with the Philly cheesesteak and homemade chips. I enjoyed the cheesesteak's fresh bread; plenty of tender meat, peppers, and onions; and gooey cheese. It could have used more mayonnaise, but it was still quite good. The homemade chips were tasty but undercooked; if I had been hungrier, I definitely would have returned them and asked for a fresh batch. My husband absolutely devoured the cheeseburger and fries he ordered. He said that it was one of the best burgers he's had in quite a while, and this is a guy who loves burgers and eats them often. I want to return to Piedmont Ale House in the future. I think there are some things they seem to do really well, namely burgers and beer at really reasonable prices!

The casual but polished ambiance fits perfectly into the charming, throwback small-town feel of downtown Graham.. which feels like something out of an earlier era with its historic courthouse, independent movie theater, and locally-owned boutiques and casual restaurants. The menu offers a wide variety of made-to-order savory and sweet crepes, as well as several toasts and waffle dishes. On my last visit to PRESS, I had the seasonal Blue Ridge crepe ($16.50), which was excellent -- a savory, blue-tinged shell filled with a great combination of sweet maple syrup-glazed ham and tangy granny smith apples and topped by a scrambled "hurricane-style" egg and a spicy maple mustard drizzle. YUM! The beverage menu at PRESS is equally impressive, featuring everything from made-to-order hot and cold coffees and tea-based beverages to a carefully curated cocktail list. I really enjoyed the soy maple pecan latte.
