    California Bowl (added steak)
    Brenda B.

    I came in for an early dinner with a friend. The space was clean and open. Our server was friendly and attentive. I had the California bowl with steak added. It was very pretty and well balanced. I did include cauliflower rice which was served cold which kinda threw me off. My friend and I shared a dessert. The portion was perfect and it was delicious!

    When I think of hidden gems of Winston Salem this place always seems to be at the top of that list! The food here is by far some of the best in WS and you rarely hear anyone talk about it. Not to mention the ambiance and service is something special! The mushroom toast was recommended by our server and it was delicious, will be getting it again In the future. This time we also tried two things we had never gotten before, the seafood platter and the apricot/prosciutto pizza. Both were amazing, the pizza was extremely well balanced between sweet and savory.

    Went again last night and the food was wonderful, and the same friendly and professional service we have come to expect there.

    When good food and service goes hand and hand. This is a cute hidden gem with great service and food. I had the 007 martini that was worth every penny, followed by some of the best cauliflower bites. They weren't heavily breaded or greasy. My main entree was the brown sugar tarragon salmon recommended by our waitress, that didn't disappoint. Their salmon is glazed with tomato paste which taste like ketchup with better flavor. My partner was pleased with the trout and roasted veggies. DiamondBack Grill is definitely worth a try if you're in the area.

    Last night was our first time trying this we'll recommend restaurant. We were pretty excited. I ordered the salted Carmel Martini- but our server Thomas (who I'm hoping is new) brought me out a chocolate one. Eventually I got the correct one. Sadly the chocolate one was actually better than the one I ordered. HaHa. Our Calamari was absolutely delicious! Unfortunately, our main dishes came out at the exact same time as our appetizer, bummer! That's a pretty big peeve of mine. My very handsome date got the steak & potatoes (he ordered the Filet), it was cooked to perfection, but anyone who knows a GOOD filet knows it melts in your mouth, this one not so much. It was definitely a tougher chew. Interestingly enough it's the same price for the filet as it is for the ribeye. I had the tuna & the spicy shrimp. Both were good & for the tuna being frozen & our location, I've definitely had worse, but I've also had MUCH better. I likely wouldn't order it again. We had the bread pudding for dessert & it is served cold, which caught me off guard as I've only ever had bread pudding that was warm. It was delicious though! Our water sat empty entirely too long, in fact I had to ask Thomas for refills. The table next to us was having a lot of issues with Thomas as well. The ambiance is nice, the cafe side & the bar side are like two different restaurants in one. It's very interesting. Overall- we'll give it another shot.

    Flash-Fried Calamari (delicious!)

    Hate to give three stars because I really anticipated this being a five star restaurant but it is what it is. Appearance of restaurant was nice and everyone was friendly. Had a reservation and they sat us immediately which was awesome but now to the concerns. Thomas was very friendly but failed to pay attention to details. Cocktails are slow to come out and my basic Jack and diet was mediocre, definitely on the low side of alcohol to soda ratio (unlike the drinks at Fratellis and etc). He took our appetizer order and also our entree orders at the same time (no problem with that) but unfortunately they all came out at the same time. I think it's safe to say Thomas is new or was distracted and having an off day. Make no mistake he was very friendly and apologetic so I hope this was a one off. The Calamari was delicious!!! I ordered the steak and potatoes and was given the choice of ribeye or filet (not stated on menu) and I chose filet which was a mistake. The meal was delicious and cooked as ordered but it was one of the chewiest filets I have ever had at a nice restaurant (Jeffery Adam's filet melts in your mouth, a lot of good choices in Winston for it also) which was disappointing. We had to ask for more water and I also forgot to mention my wife's cocktail was wrong initially, poor Thomas could be heard apologizing constantly to table next to us. Again I think he may be new, he really is polite. We decided to get dessert and just my luck they were out of our first choice, which happens, so we got the bread pudding. Dessert was good but didn't seem to match the description. It had cranberry pieces in it but menu stated mango, lol, but it was still good. We will definitely try it again (but NO filet) because I feel like this maybe just a one off but will definitely request to sit on the Cafe side which appears to be nicer. Ps. I have heard one of the best waitresses (Leslee) from the Liberty restaurant in Lewisville is starting here in a week. Definitely will ask for her so the service will be 5 star at the very least!!!

I highly recommend you give CAVA a try if you haven't already! The employees are super friendly and kind.

    Wow, the food here was great. I got a bowl with grilled chicken then you get a grain (basmati rice…read morefor me) and then toppings and other items....the only thing I can say that wasn't great was the long queue to get the food. That last part is not CAVA's fault, unless you can fault them for being so good that people stand in line to eat there.

    I came here for the first time for lunch. I never went to it before when it was a poke-only place,…read moreso I was interested to try the new place out. They had more on the menu than I expected, from smash burgers, to buttermilk fried chicken to, obviously, poke bowls. I built my own bowl, and was very happy with the result. Everything tasted fresh and very flavorful. My only small gripe was that I could tell the pineapple was not fresh and obviously canned. The jalapenos were fresh sliced and added a bit of heat, which is perfect. I feel like this is one of those places I could come back multiple times and get different combinations of things in the menu.

It began as a poke bowl place but has since added everything from rice and noodle bowls to burgers and hot dogs to sandwiches and wings. It hasn't gone full Cowfish (yet), but trying to offer so much is a risky proposition. And yet, if my visit was anything to go by, the eclecticism didn't come at the cost of execution. I popped in shortly before noon on a Saturday to find the restaurant mostly empty (though patrons were pouring in when I was ready to leave). It's definitely a casual space - counter service with disposable bowls - albeit more colorful - and a decent bit costlier -- than a fast food joint. I was nearly set on building my own poke bowl when I spotted a cold noodle section of the menu. Peanut salad noodles with shrimp sounded too good to pass up. My food came quickly, and it hit the spot. The peanut sauce had a spicy kick, the cabbage and peanuts offered a satisfying crunch, and the shrimp were cooked well. I had lowered my expectations based on the atmosphere, but I shouldn't have: this dish would have held up at a more upscale place. With so expansive a menu, I don't know if That Place in the West End can keep up the quality across the board, but I would gladly return to this place for more noodles. Or a poke bowl. Or a burger. Or fried chicken. Or...

    Second time visiting Grandpa Joe's, first time ordering their pizza and Wowie Zowie!…read more The base of the pizza is Bobby Boy Bakery focaccia and the richness and complexity of it transforms the pizza into an almost dessert-like experience. Crunchy on the outside, chewy on the inside, slightly charred, it's a flavor and texture masterpiece. Mine was topped with burrata and prosciutto, they were generous with the prosciutto and it was so good and perfectly complimented by the melty burrata. A side of marina sauce adds extra zing. I found half a piece to be a satisfactory amount. My husband said he had almost ordered two pieces but only ordered one, he ate the other half of mine and found 1-1/2 pieces to be a good amount for him. He said he could have eaten two but 2-1/2 would have been too much. I chose a can of red wine to accompany this showpiece. The man behind the counter noted that the wine is made from Sangiovese grapes (as is Chianti, which is a Sangiovese blend). I thought it was an ok accompaniment to the pizza, it's not something I would drink on its own. The weather was perfect for dining al fresco, the other patrons were mostly groups of young couples, some with babies strapped to their bodies or in strollers or young children scooting about on riding toys. Pleasant.

Everything today was super fresh. I went with a mix of tuna, spicy tuna, and marinated tuna with gochujang, and every bite was on point. The rice was perfectly sticky, the toppings were crisp, and you can really tell the ingredients are high quality. I did a half-and-half base and added extra protein, and honestly, for about $20 with tip, it felt like a great deal. I used to pay closer to $30 for something similar back in Nashville, so this is definitely a win. Safe to say this is going into my regular rotation.

Today was in the upper 70's so Poke Star was the perfect choice. They have some signature bowls and my husband always gets the Volcano Bowl. I like to make my own combo of ingredients. Just fill out the order sheet provided with all the things you want and hand it to the worker who will build it. Today I chose a lettuce base, marinated tuna, some onions, carrots, cucumber, pineapple and then topped with wasabi sauce and sweet soy. For crunch I added tempura and wonton strips. The service there is always fast and friendly. They never take long to make each bowl so if you're in a hurry this is a great place to stop that's going to faster than any drive thru in town. I was eating in today so I chose one of the high tables. My husband was joining me with his Volcano Bowl, and we also got a fountain drink. I'm not sure what type of lettuce mix they use but it was the freshest and crunchiest I've ever had. I get salads at other build your own type places, but they are never this cold and crisp. Highly recommend getting it here if you are usually a rice base type person. Dining room is spotless as always. I can always find a clean table to sit and the beverage area is also kept spotless every time I've been in. Poke Star has been in this location for quite a few years unlike other places that come and go so you know they are doing something right.
