If you're a fan of southern style food, this is the place for you. The wait staff is always friendly and super sweet. On Sunday's you will meet a crowd after church and during lunch time during the week. Highly recommend the chicken salad, fried chicken, livers, hamburger gravy, garlic chicken, pork chops, catfish, club sandwich, and peach cobbler. I haven't had anything bad off the menu yet but these are some of our favorites.

I wanted to take a friend to a nice spot Friday June 12, he had never had the pleasure of…read moreexperiencing. I've been here many times however it was his 1st visit. I let him know the food was great, home cooked and good portions. The one thing that ruined the evening was the RUDE waitress, he walked up to the table and before he could sit down she bought my drink out, she asked what will you have to drink, he's looking confused and responds still standing, well what do you have? She rambles all the options so fast I'm not sure he understood all but made a choice. Then he sat down. She came back and slid it on the table like a fly by.. Soon she bought a hush puppy basket they were cold, I dare not complain she was so nasty and distant. Next she came back, order book open and I was like it's his 1st time, she didn't say anything, she just looked out the window and waited, so we just knew we needed to order, so I named my meat before I could finish SIDES??then he simply asks did they have bone in chicken ( I didn't know he was going to ask or I would have told him beforehand) she says no we have , fried chicken breast tenders, sisco chicken etc, she named every chicken dish on the menu without taking a breath.. I can give her props for knowing that..we both were looking at her confused and she never looked at us it was always "looking out the window " He said just give me "Flounder " one piece or two??? He replies one, SIDES??? Like we needed to be on point. She took the menus and left. She asked the questions she needed but was mean, not engaging and just rude. The WAY she asked.. When our food came this waitress walked by and literally slid our food on the table in a way that was like HERE! And kept walking I don't even think she stopped when she put them on the table she may have slowed down. We had to reach towards the end of the table to slide our plates in front of us. We both looking at each other in agreement she just nasty! The next time she came back she walked by and sat down a half glass of refill for his drink, she hadn't asked she just did it, suppose he wanted a glass of water? When we put our forks down she came over to get his plate and bought me a to go box as I still had half my food on my plate and she left the ticket. She didn't say is there anything I can get you or anything the entire time. He put his pymt with the ticket and put it on the edge of the table, I hadn't been in a while so I forgot we would pay on the way out. She was cleaning the floor near us and slid our ticket/pymt farther on our table, as if it was in her way, again he's confused so he said this is ready and she let him know to pay up front. I have never experienced such a nasty waitress at this restaurant and because of this I probably will never go back. I don't like not feeling comfortable and welcomed in a place where my money and time is going into. I started to complain before I left but in reality I don't think it would have mattered, and we left a tip not as much as we would have if she was more pleasant. I don't know whether she was having a bad day, a long day or to take it personal but I can't deal with attitude like that and won't take a chance on it again. This man drove a hour to experience this was just unbelievable!!!!

The Lemon Tree is located inside Page 158 Bookstore in Downtown Wake Forest. The shopping center…read morehas plenty of free parking. There are a variety of tables for dining in. Ordering is done at the counter, and you are given a number, and it is brought out to you. The Lemon Tree has sandwiches, salads and soups to order. The menu changes weekly. You can order a sandwich, two sides, a beverage and a dessert for a good price. I went with the egg salad sandwich and selected two sides, my limeade and a brownie, all for $11. The egg salad was delicious, as were my sides of basil, tomato and cucumber and the berry salad. I liked that the Lemon Tree offers fresh and healthier options than other places. Both the food and service were excellent this visit.

It quickly got busy. But definitely worth checking out.

Good Country Cooking…read more This little country eatery always delivers. The Fried Flounder Lunch ($9.99 with 2 sides) hit the spot.

No frills here - just good country cooking.

Yes, it makes a difference to those of us that have dogs... There is nothing I can say besides it's a cool concept.

She made sure our food was remade and even refunded both of our meals after they came out cold and were not good. Analise, our server, also did a great job and did the best she could with the situation. The issues we had were clearly on the kitchen side, not them. For food, I ordered the Baja Turkey Burger with house potatoes and a mimosa, and my meal was actually good. My mom and brother both ordered the Trifecta, but both meals had to be sent back because they were cold, and the turkey sausage did not look appealing at all (they had run out of regular sausage that day). My brother ended up getting the BLTE with tomato soup, which he enjoyed. My mom switched to the same Baja Turkey Burger I had but with tomato soup on the side. The biggest problem overall was the kitchen consistency. My mom's turkey burger was only halfway cooked, and both original meals came out cold, which was disappointing. Another issue was the environment that day, it was extremely hot inside, especially with the heavy crowd, because the A/C wasn't working. I really hope they got that fixed in time for the hotter weather because it made dining uncomfortable. One thing to be aware of: they offer coffee, but don't really mention that it's an extra $4 charge, so just keep that in mind. The service and management were great, the food consistency and environment missed the mark during this visit. I honestly think going to the Capital Boulevard location may have been the better option.

Brigs is a solid 3-star brunch spot in Wake Forest. I'm not from the area--just visiting…read morefriends--so I turned to Yelp to find a good place to eat. The restaurant was packed and had a strong 4-star rating, so with limited standout options nearby, it felt like an easy choice. My husband ordered the shrimp and grits, and I went with the chicken and waffles with a side of grits. I'm giving it 3 stars mainly because of the chicken. What came out were chicken tenders, which was disappointing. All the photos I saw beforehand showed full pieces like breasts or thighs, so getting two small tenders felt a bit underwhelming--I was honestly caught off guard. That said, the waffles were phenomenal. The grits were phenomenal. And the service was phenomenal. Overall, the ambiance, curb appeal, and especially the chicken brought this down from what could have easily been a 4.5 or even 5-star experience.

I had it without sausage or bacon and it was still a banger! I said it.. Best Breakfast Burrito in the Triangle (I have been in San Diego 5 yrs and San Antonio 8 yrs burrito capitals) this burrito should be entered into a contest somewhere!!! Biscuit is edible I like the crunch and soft but we in the biscuit capital and this is something I personally wouldn't come here for but don't let my opinion discourage you from trying the biscuit it might be your favorite. Weekends here are crowded I don't think it's like that during the week depending on what you coming here for. Wouldn't recommend remote workers to come here on Saturdays. It's rare I put the food before customer service they were friendly and accommodating. Also they gave solid recommendations for us to get a feel of what they Curtsy is about. Another thing I like about this company is at the beginning of the year that give their employees a week off. When a company takes care of the staff the staff takes care of us.
