Best fried mushrooms I've had!
Dennis S.

I'll go ahead and start with the con, their French onion soup was abysmal. When I got it, their was no soup whatsoever and little cheese. On the bright side, their drinks are good, their prices aren't bad, and they have amazing ribs. My favorite! Their stuffed mushrooms was beyond the best I've ever had. I will go there just for that. Plenty of mushrooms and a great price. Their bacon cheese potato wedges are great as well. Filling!

Nashville Spicy Fried Chicken
Tony M.

Chicken was cooked perfectly. Very light on the Nashville hot sauce . I believe it needed something more green than the pickled. Maybe a blue cheese slaw would of make it an experience

Cajun Shrimp Dinner
Terri W.

We celebrated my birthday with a great meal and time at Darryl's! We started with the stuffed mushrooms, provolone cheese wedges, and a perfectly salted Patron margarita. We ordered for dinner: Ribs, Cajun shrimp, lasagna and Cajun prime rib matched with loaded potatoes, white cheddar Mac n cheese and steamed broccoli. Everything was delicious! We got 2 orders of the cappuccino chocolate cake that were divine! We all had to go boxes, so the deliciousness will continue. Carley provided excellent service! Also, I love the reservation process through Yelp. They really let you drill down on what you'll need. They ask for the usual info but then ask if there will be a need for kid's menus, booster seats, upstairs or downstairs preferences, what's the occasion and if it will be one check or split? I really liked that you could provide this information!

Darryl's Wood Fired Grill is a great stop for meeting people passing through Greensboro. It offers consistently good food and friendly service in a fun, laid-back setting, with plenty of parking to make the visit easy. The wood-fired grill dishes are classics for a reason, and the full bar--stocked with a strong selection of beer and wine, is perfect for unwinding after a long drive (my partner especially enjoyed the local IPAs). Portions are generous, and the diverse menu makes it easy for everyone to find something they'll love. I recommend the fried mushroom appetizer, they were so good we ordered them twice. The house-made crackers are also a must. Add in the quirky themed seating and outdoor fire pits, and Darryl's delivers a cool, memorable vibe you don't find just anywhere.

Darryl's Wood Fired Grill was AMAZING! We ordered so much food and ended up taking most of it home because the portions were HUGE. The potato skins are something I'll be dreaming about--they definitely did not skimp on the servings of anything! We came in starving and left completely full. The ambiance and space were electric, and the décor was everything. I honestly felt like I had stepped into another world once inside. The service was fast and very informative, especially since we're not native to North Carolina. Our server gave great recommendations, and we ended up taking every single one of them. 10000000/10 recommend!

This restaurant has a really great vibe to it. It has a lot of unique decorations that create a really fun and engaging atmosphere. However the food was nothing special. Everything we got had no real flavor to it. Which is unfortunate because the staff there were so nice and the inside is really cool. I just wish the food was just as interesting.

Pork chops with mashed potatoes and steamed broccoli.
Chris K.

We love coming to Darryl's whenever we're in town. The decor is so comfortable, the staff is excellent, and the food is fantastic. Our server, Jan, took great care of us today! We were treating a friend to an early birthday dinner and she chose the same meal as me, but different sides. We both got the pork chops, she had mashed potatoes and steamed broccoli, and I chose baked beans and slaw. The pork chops were to die for!! We both had them add bbq sauce while cooking and some on the side. The pork was as tender as a perfectly cooked steak and the flavor was wonderful. I look forward to the leftovers I brought home. My spouse got a full rack of baby back ribs so she'd have leftovers too with baked beans and mac n cheese. She's never had their mac n cheese before and commented how good it was. The ribs and beans were excellent as to be expected. I know if there was a location in the Triangle we'd be regulars, but it really isn't too far for an occasional visit when we get a craving!

Dixa M.

Very good ribs, bake beans, shrimp and bake potato, delicious the chicken tenders not flavored at all. Service was good, our waiter was very sweet and attentive. The restaurant is nice, a lot of decorations that make the place pretty cool.

Pizza crust chips/crackers
Bill M.

I have enjoyed going here for 25 year especially when they had in in Winston. The pizza crust chips/crackers have always been on point. Great ribs and very cool decor.

Pretty.
Jack D.

Great and cured ambience. Even their landscaping is meticulous. This had so much potential. Many rooms with different motifs. A good spot for drinks and dessert. And great service. However!!!! Business dinner. The hot spinach came with stale corn chips. Two entrees. Cajun fettuccine was bland. Grilled chicken Caesar was hard to eat. The grilled chicken came straight out of the freezer. It had that subtle taste of freezer and plastic bag. The cheesecake and key lime pie were very good. But the whole package was very subpar.

Chandeliers inside
Joe S.

Good service, decent food, very interesting decor. Didn't quite hear the history of the interior design but there was plenty to look at here. I tried the house pimento (definitely has a kick!) with the house crackers (dry, no personality). I took the beef ribs to go and was impressed with how tender they were. They practically shredded in my fingers when I pinched the meat off the bone. The bbq sauce was on the tangy side, not bad though I prefer mine to be a tad sweeter. Cash helped me and was attentive and efficient. There are other bbq joints in the area, and though I'm curious enough to come back and try other dishes, I may want to check out other places first to compare.

Steve M.

Darryl's Wood Fired Grill is a American style food of variety of options. Food: the appetizers were good, the potato skins, the salad, and the Cajun shrimps were great! The ribs, chicken fingers, steak with shrimps and the mash potato was amazing! Service: Lindsey is our waitress and she was awesome. She provided great feedback for food options. Her service of bringing the drinks and food out is quick and her follow up is great! Ambiance: the ambiance of the Resturant is nice, updated, huge, and has several floors with different dynamics. Its spacing can accommodate large families and intimate space for couples. There's booth, elevated, and standardized The overall rating 4.6/5.0

Which is saying a lot as there are many hidden gems in this area. But Freeman's really does find a way to shine in its own right. Every meal I've had there felt like a warm hug. The food always seemed fresh and prepared with quality ingredients. I was always surprised to find such unique options whenever I visited. The building also feels like such a cozy hangout spot. And the servers always seem welcoming. There's just something magical happening here that you have to visit to understand. Gosh, just writing this is making me want to go back right now! Definitely check Freeman's out if you find yourself in the area or passing through. They're a solid local business worthy of your patronage, and I would love to see them keep making the magic that they do for many, many years to come.

The service isn't going to be in and out as this isn't a large place with lots of wait staff. Expect to be here at least an hour. They have Coors on draft (nostalgia for the Mr.) and tall boy PBRs. Not your thing? Don't let that deter you bc they are one of the few places I have seen who has Old Rasputin on DRAFT. Those not familiar, this is a Russian imperial stout by North Coast Brewery out of Ft Bragg, California. Something I haven't had since... well, I lived in California. Personally, one of my favorite stouts. Beer not your thing? They have an array of specialty contrails and some solid liquor choices including buffalo trace's limited purchase bourbon (eagle rare/ blantons). Food: the Brussels, sandwiches, and salads looked amazing (neighboring patting got those). We split a few things: Brisket: nit the best I have ever had, but solid choice. Maybe not for the $, but it was fall apart brisket. Wings: these are crispy fried with sauce on the side. A little hard but good. Not my favorite. The poutine was by far a favorite with the melty cheese and the gravy was delicious. We also had the street corn and with the lime was pretty good as well. These 4 things were plenty for the 2 of us with a little extra. We didn't mind paying the extra because of the experience. I did about die of heat, but I should have put a hair the in my bag and wore a skit or just not jeans. We will definitely be back.

We had to walk about three blocks in absolutely torrential rain that rendered my umbrella basically useless. I'd spent 30 minutes on my hair, which was now ruined, my shoes were soaked, and by the time we walked in I was in a TERRIBLE mood. The second we stepped inside, that completely started to change. The staff was so welcoming and empathetic. They immediately brought us towels to dry off and even brought me a blanket! They also gave us some complimentary champagne for our anniversary. Our waitress, Delaney (I hope I'm spelling that right!), was wonderful and even took the time to make me a custom off-menu martini. And then there was the food. We started with the raw oysters, which were half price for happy hour and came with a chili sauce that will now make every other oyster slightly disappointing. I had the bacon cheeseburger, and my partner had the pork belly cacio e pepe, which was fantastic. At the end of the meal, they surprised us with complimentary olive oil cake and more bubbly for our anniversary. What could have easily been a miserable evening ended up being such a great anniversary dinner. The entire staff went above and beyond for us, and the hospitality really stood out. I highly recommend White and Wood whether you're celebrating something or just looking for a great evening out downtown. We'll definitely be back!

To top it off, the place has a great atmosphere. I can see this becoming a "spot" for sure. The miso soup, gyoza, and cheese rangoons are fantastic starters. The gyoza was pan-seared for that perfect crunch and made with plenty of filling. The crab Rangoons were crispy, golden, and packed with creamy flavor. The sushi? Solid. The tuna nigiri was fantastic and practically melted in my mouth. I'd say the shrimp nigiri was good too. Both had great rice with the perfect texture. Also the hibachi fried rice is excellent, though I preferred beef over chicken with it. The highlights of the night were the specialty rolls. The Snow White sushi roll is satisfying with a lot of flavor in one bite. The Tiger roll was also stacked and made beautifully. A final mention is the fried calamari, that was an amazing pair to everything! I'll be back, that's for sure.

They have creative unique rolls, the service is usually pretty good, and we basically have to waddle out of the restaurant each time because the AYCE is AMAZING. That being said, my husband and I had the opportunity to get out while we had a free babysitter for our toddler and we went to Mr. Tokyo to eat with our 6 week old baby. During our meal, there was a blowout situation, and I quickly left to take her to the bathroom to change her. There was no changing table, so I had to kneel on the bathroom stall floor to change a purple face screaming baby with a blowout. Suffice it to say, by the time I returned to our table, our baby was very angry and I was very stressed (which could have been avoided if there had been a changing table). My husband and I took turns scarfing down the rest of our food and left stressed. Food= delicious. Date night with a baby... not so much.

We ordered drinks and an appetizer and they came out fairly quickly. The Korean BBQ Spring Rolls are very good! Now for the not so good part. We ordered the fish and chips to split- that was all we ordered after the appetizer and it took forever for our order to be brought to the table. We watched a couple tables around us, get their food before us, and they had been seated after us.. The server had to go back and check on our dish a couple times before it finally came out. I will say the fish and the chips were fabulous, but the corn was terrible and should probably not even be included on the dish. It was WAY overcooked and chewy. The coleslaw left quite a bit to be desired as well. No seasoning, no flavor and was just bland. When it says wasabi coleslaw, I am thinking it is going to have a little bit of a kick to it but nothing. They could definitely save themselves some money by eliminating the corn from this dish, make the coleslaw an option as an up charge and could lower the price on the dish in general or add a third piece of fish instead of the corn and coleslaw. Overall, it's definitely the best fish and chips we've had since moving to the area, but I would order it with no corn or coleslaw next time.

We started out with cocktails. I had a Hendricks dry martini straight up (it was delicious) and my wife had a Don't Call Me Sweetie which is mix of Hendrick's Gin, Lemon, Cucumber, Basil, Simple, Saline 15. It is very citrus heavy, so be advised. She had them cut it with a bit of cranberry to offset the citrus. For main courses, my wife had the grilled salmon and she chose sautéed garlic spinach and wasabi slaw as her sides. I ordered the shrimp and grits and my side was blackened green beans. Let's talk main course first. My wife's salmon was terrific. Flaky and moist and very tasty. My shrimp and grits was unique because it was a real balance between large pieces of shrimp and the grits. Many times you'll order this dish and end up with a pile of grits with some shrimp sprinkled on top. This version is very tasty and a really nice balance of flavors. The Cajun seasonings have it some kick, but it did not overpower. The side dishes are where we had a couple of surprises. First off the sautéed spinach was really delicious, but my wife's wasabi slaw was bland. It's a huge shocker because when you see the word wasabi, you expected to have some Asian kick to it. This did not. It was hard to even identify that it had wasabi in it. That was a disappointment. The surprise was the blackened green beans. They actually were one of the stars of the show. Their flavor and texture was just awesome. We could've ordered a huge bowl of it and eaten all of it. While it didn't need it, there was a dipping aïoli on the side, just in case we wanted to add that to the green bean experience. As I mentioned off the start, Fishbones is a very casual experience. It's very pub-like in that way. We really loved it and the wait staff, which is a team approach as anyone who passes you makes sure you're doing OK, were kind, upbeat and helpful. Even with the bland slaw, we can't lower our rating because overall the experience was terrific. We will definitely come back.

I also got a cucumber margarita, they had actually muddled real cucumbers into the margarita and it was delicious. They also had red sauce and green sauces available which elevated the dish perfectly. The black beans were also delicious. The place looks small on the outside but there's a good amount of seating indoors and the bar area is fairly big. Overall though Crazy Mexico #5 had amazing good, impeccable service and a great vibe to it. If they keep this up, we'll be seeing a Crazy Mexico #6 in no time!
