Smithfield's is about as Eastern North Carolina as they come. I stopped in on my way home from a…read moretrip up north and couldn't wait to get some authentic Eastern North Carolina-style barbecue. The restaurants are very consistent in their Carolina-style design--homey, comfortable, and straightforward. The wall art adds character and reinforces the local feel without being overdone. The staff was very friendly and attentive, making sure every need was met. I ordered the large BBQ plate with slaw and baked beans. A generous portion of hushpuppies was sprinkled on top. The pulled pork is seasoned in classic Eastern North Carolina barbecue fashion--thin, tangy, vinegar-forward, and lightly seasoned. That same vinegar-based sauce is on the tables, along with Texas Pete. The portion size on the large platter was substantial enough that I asked for a to-go box and took leftovers home. Since they offer banana pudding--a North Carolina favorite of mine--I ordered one and enjoyed it there. The 'Nilla wafers are mixed directly into the pudding, exactly where they belong. Their banana pudding, like their hushpuppies, is excellent. Another great Eastern North Carolina barbecue experience.

First off, this spot is cozy and rustic, from the antique wooden bar to the brick walls and Turkish lights and carpets. We were immediately greeted and while our host started to escort us to a table, we asked if we could sit at the bar. Of course, was her reply. We took our seats and Melissa came out to give us menus and take our drink order. We went in thinking of sharing a small pizza so I was looking for a glass of red wine to accompany it. I asked Melissa for a glass of Cabernet, but they didn't have any. She told me what they did have and I asked for a small taste of the blend which she happily provided. It was good, so I decided to have a glass. We asked for her recommendations as it is always fun to get the staff's opinion on menu items and she replied that everything is good, but she especially likes the Australian Chicken. We asked about the pizzas and she recommended the George's special and told us we would love it. Sold (although I would really like to go back and try the chicken). The pizza was delivered hot, fresh and flavorful. Toppings included pepperoni, sausage, ground beef, onion, green pepper and mushrooms. The ratio of sauce on the pizza was just perfect and so tasty. Toppings still had that slight crisp that I love. The crust looked a bit thicker, but was not. It was crunchy outside, but had a wonderful softness to the inside that I loved and a great flavor. Usually, I discard crusts, but I munched on these. We were offered Parmesan and red pepper flakes. Those red pepper flakes packed some heat! We had the best experience thanks to Melissa and the delicious food! I hope that we have an opportunity to come back in the short week we are here.

Lastly prices are very reasonable. To add chicken to my pasta was $3.00, and it was a ton of moist tender chicken. We will absolutely return to this gem.

Do you still want to order? That should've been our signal to leave but we were in the mood for the square burgers so we ordered. The lady was upset when we pulled up to the window and advised the person handing our drinks that we only had one fruit punch and the other three drinks were coke. I can hear her yell, they said two fruit punch to the lady having to hand over the sodas. Then our drinks understandably with no ice were hot, not even luke warm, but hot. I was upset, and knew that I just lost the money and while that was ok, the burgers were disgusting. The bacon tasted like it was microwaved several times and the burgers were not up to what I'm usually use to at any Wendy's establishments. Highly recommend staying away from this location if you're met with such service. Glad I don't live in the area and only have been passing through. Would like to give less than one star but I can't ‍

The chicken nuggets were hot and the fries were a little limp but tasty. They have the Coke Freestyle machine here so it's bottomless refills which is nice. The restaurant was mostly clean. Some dirty tables and the restroom was okay but the condiments station was a mess. Room for improvement here. [Review 2151 of 2024 - 3810 in North Carolina - 23170 overall]

I was wanting breakfast before I headed out to Staunton River, VA State Park. I searched Google and Yelp and really, ya'll need help in this area. Either that or you, for real, don't have many choices in the area. Let me say. Creamed Chipped Beef Gravy should be on EVERY breakfast menu in the South and when I put Chipped Beef Gravy in both, Google And Yelp, it pulled up everything, even Subway. It was depressing. So ok. Most interesting thing I saw was Sunrise Biscuit. Henderson North Carolina. I was about 40 min out? Ok.....let's go. My Yelp directions had me in circles. I changed to Google. Had to pull over couple times to refresh my directions. I finally arrived. It's a tiny little place. Rutted out parking area. I smacked my head and went on in. No line when I was there. 3 people. I ordered bacon egg and cheese biscuit, and gravy on the side, plus a large coffee. Order was called. Chef confirmed. Order of side gravy was yelled out for reconfirmation, Chef said I got it. Order up. My bacon egg and cheese biscuit had seen better days. A Lotta bacon! Though my egg was offsides and hanging on for dear life. It took me 1/2 a sugar jar to reach even near the level of flavor I like. That's because the coffee was a confirmed LARGE!!! I loved it. Thank you! I sat inside to eat, while mostly everyone else was to go. I enjoyed watching the customer's experiences. Everyone was nice. Regarding my food, my biscuit was not fluffy with some glistening grease. More-so, it stuck to my teeth and had to wash it down my throat with the coffee. Glad it was a large. My gravy.... my gravy was in a thimble compared to the rest of my meal. I had to giggle. It was good. I wasn't mad at all. My bill was less than $7. It stuck to my gut and was a great experience. I wont forget it! Thanks!!!
