First time going and wasn't sure what to get so I ended up with the Tofu bao buns with some get chili oil and Mac and cheese. Odd combination ik, but it surprisingly went very well together- and the mac & cheese was delicious some of the best I've had from a restaurant actually. The bao buns were also very good and tasty. We had also gotten the prize for the table and they were delicious Service was quick and the atmosphere was lively- hopefully will be able to return someday! read more

Went to in demand the other day looking for a quick bite and was thoroughly pleased. For starters the scenery is dimly lit with a real cute and calm presence. The menu has a blend of American and Asian inspired dishes. Specialty fries that practically have their own menu, skewers, wings and burgers. A good blend of an everything. I ended up getting. A pimento cheese burger with a good blend of flavor in it. My sweet potato fries were crispy just how I like. I can't remember which one I order but my bao bun didn't really have must flavor to it but the good amount of crunch to it. My service was great very laid back and patient. Overall I had a good time and would love to see the other options of the menu. I feel like their specialities are the more fusion items they offer. I would definitely try this place again and recommend you give this place a try. read more

My husband and I were driving through Winston on our way back from celebrating our anniversary away, and we wanted a unique and fun food option. We found InDemand-Asian and thought it might work well for us. Upon arriving, we were greeted by the server who checked on us at very regular intervals and answered any clarifying questions we had about the menu and items we were interested in ordering. We ended up ordering Japanese fries and lobster rolls to split. The food was DELICIOUS, and the fries were some of the best and most unique that we have ever had. The decor was fun, and the pop music wasn't obtrusive in any way. Already have recommended it to many friends and we would like to come again! read more

When we walked in the place was empty. I hate to see that on a Thursday afternoon. It is very clean and they did a little remodeling -new floors The service was very quick. I ordered the chicken caprese sandwich. The bun was soft and grilled a little with butter The chicken was tender and the pesto sauce just the right amount. I ordered charred Broccoli on the side and it was charred perfectly. Not much to say about the ambience as it was empty. But great place to hang out especially on a warm sunny day as they have seating outside read more

While globe trotting in Winston we decided on Asian to close out our night after touring with Asian cuisine. In Demand offers not only Asian dishes, they offer some of the basics like burgers. We ordered a variety of items so we could share. The egg rolls turned out to be my favorite. They had a bar with a varity of choices. The service was great. There was one hostess when we arrived, It was late evening and the number of patrons increased during our stay putting a bit of a strain on the hostess. The ambiance reminded me of a neighborhood pub with conversation flowing. Definitely a place to stop in and enjoy the cuisine. read more

Had dinner one night with a group of friends. It was not busy the night of our visit. Our friends were already at our table when we arrived. The hostess showed us to the table and menus were already waiting. We ordered drinks with our server and got a couple appetizers to start our table off right. Crab Rangoon wontons, with the Spring rolls and some of the Mac balls all three were nicely prepared and a good start. Of the three the Spring rolls were my favorite, crunchy golden brown and flavorful. I went for the pork belly Bao buns, along with the Panang Chicken curry for my dinner. The curry was very good, full flavored and just spicy enough. The Bao buns were okay, but the pork belly overcooked. Which really defeated the whole purpose. Our server was not very attentive and actually did not check on us, we had to go ask to get help more than once on our visit. It wasn't until the end of our meal that an owner stepped in that things changed. But it was a last ditch effort to salvage the night with us. We tried to make the most of it but from our server literally forgetting our drinks to going to ask for silverware and napkins, and then asking if we could order dinner? and even having to ask for a dessert menu... it was obvious this place needs help with staff and training 3.5 Stars it is what it is, rounded down for the lack of any real service 01211 read more

This was a great experience, & I am super grateful that we were able to have it. It is awesome that they have so much variety. As my plate I chose the bao buns & they did not disappoint, the bun is so soft & the pork is tender & super flavorful. Of course, I brought my children & we purchased some other items apps & entrees that did not disappoint. The lobster roll special soo succulent, & the bun was nice & full of lobster . We have even brought family when they have visited from out of state & they enjoy as well. I've had pho & enjoyedit, so many delicious choices, like delicious burgers as well. If you haven't tried them yet, you don't know what you are missing!! read more

Cant speak on the burgers, wings or bao. But the Pho was just plain bad. The Thick cut chewy strips of sirloin steak were unusual and the broth lacked a lot of key flavors that make a TRUE pho broth. I would consider trying some other menu items but this dish wasnt it. read more

Shhhh Shito Skewers for the win. Is InDemand-Asian Street Food & Burger Bar one of the best-kept secrets in Winston-Salem's culinary circles? From the skewers to the custom burgers to the flavorful wings, the menu is like a food tour on demand for the best of Winston-Salem to try. Let's talk skewers. Feeling small bites but loving big flavor? The combo order and the ranges of quantities of skewers are the best way to explore. Good for one person or to share with friends. And honestly, the rest of the menu is giving main character foodie energy. It casually blends Asian street food vibes with comfort-food burgers and chaotic loaded fries in a way that just works. One minute you're ordering bao buns and kushiyaki skewers, the next you're pivoting into a pimento cheese bacon burger or a garlic bread steak sandwich like you're on a global flavor tour with zero jet lag. The fries alone deserve their own spotlight. Truffle rosemary, okonomiyaki, poutine. It's basically a personality test at this point. Add in pho, Panang curry, wings, and boba, and suddenly you realize this is not a quick snack stop. It's the kind of place where you pull up for a bite and end up building your own mini feast because everything sounds too good not to try. read more

Got the same selection (5 skewers and thai fried rice) as did for my 1st experience which was a Yelp event. Just as good, thus consistency. Which is desirable. The staff remembered us from 2.5 months ago, even what we selected. I find that amazing. Very personable. We ordered Saki and seemed not as full as expected. Our wait staff provided us with more, gratis. That too seemed not overflowing but was a satisfactory solution. The Saki was warm not hot. So little room for improvement with the Saki quantity and quality in my opinion. The food is spot on delish and uber satisfying. I especially found the grape tomatoes in my rice to explode with addicting flavor. The seasoning of the rice is also above average captivating. Good ingredients. The meat skewers are seasoned well. Meat is small slices and texture varies. Compliments the rice well. For me the fried rice is the stellar performer. Good drink options. When crowds come in sound reverberates so can be loud but vibrant. Place has ebbs and flows. Business was light when came in at, so happy to see groups come in after 10:30pm. As I want to see this place thrive well into the future. I particularly like the manager. I look forward to trying other options during future repeat visits. My girlfriend's DRUNKEN NOODLES was bountiful and she was completely satisfied with it. She is a foodie with correlating high standards / tastes. And she has dined here several more times than I and always satisfied with the food. Kudos IN DEMAND. read more

Very cool late night spot with a wide variety of cuisines. Ranging from Thai/Asian food and American food! Service was really quick considering it was late and they had a full stocked bar as well! The food was pretty good, if you enjoy a little bit more flavor and spice I'd encourage to ask for them to make it spicier especially for the noodles. I got their impossible burger it was pretty bland, I did ask for them to cook it extra and they did but I did wish it had more flavor overall for everything pretty much. It was the same for the Mac and cheese balls. The presentation for everything was beautiful as pictured! But had to heavily season everything as much as I could. I'd come back though! There's a lot they have to offer! read more

The Panang curry chicken was some of the best I've ever had. Great service and very affordable--definitely worth it.

Worst Mother's Day dinner...ever??? My son and I decided to try something new (to us) on Mother's Day as it was just the two of us that evening. We initially landed on In Demand because the burger selection menu looked awesome, but we changed our minds when we arrived and saw the Asian menu variety. Let me include that as we were being seated, a table of three was getting up to leave and there were no other diners for the duration of our meal until a few minutes before we departed. A few to-go orders were picked up, but we were essentially alone and things seemed not so busy. We had a half booth/table and there was a cage fight on the tv (not my fave dinner content) and we were mostly able to ignore it and have a good conversation while we waited. We ordered the pork bao to start and each chose the drunken noodles, one with shrimp and one with chicken. The bao took a while to come out and they looked good and made a pretty presentation, but that was the end of the excitement for me. The pork was mostly fat and the meat stretched as we tried to bite through it and pull it apart. I could not handle gnawing on a rubbery chew toy so I ditched the pork and nibbled on the bun. We hoped the entrees would make up for it. Thirty minutes later we each received the wrong dish - fried rice with pork and one with chicken. The server knew they were wrong and said they were working on the drunken noodles, but just to keep the rice. Our first thoughts were why did it take so long to make fried rice and a protein? We ate a little, but it wasn't really what we wanted so we got to-go boxes and packed it up. We waited for the noodles and when the noodle dishes finally arrived they were brought out in to-go boxes...like we were expected not to stay... At that point we had been there so long we decided to leave and ended up making PB&Js when we got home. Though the burger bar part of the menu has been left unexplored, I really don't care enough to go back and see what we missed. read more

A must try, especially if you eat more plant based! Not a lot of places do tofu the right way, but this was seasoned perfectly and the sauces are fantastic! My favorite was the mango habanero sauce. Service was great. Everyone is very friendly. Our server was very knowledgeable about each item on the menu and helped us with making our selections. It's pretty quiet inside. We went on a Sunday afternoon and there weren't many people inside. Lots of DoorDash orders came through though so I guess that's how they stay busy. Do me a favor and keep this place in business! XD We'd like to go again! read more

Stopped by this place recently and it was... fine. The food was okay--decent flavor but nothing that stood out. The service was pretty much the same: not bad, just not especially warm or memorable. The ambience is pretty basic, nothing special, but it gets the job done. Overall, it's an alright spot if you're in the area and want something simple, but probably not a place I'd go out of my way for. read more

We had a good time, the bartender Terence he is the best, he made sure that we had everything we needed throughout our time here. The food was good, it is a good option when everything around town closes so early, we were happy to being able to have some late snacks here. The place is huge, we hang out by the bar, since we weren't staying for too long, but it was definitely a good time. P.S. Check their beer special :) read more

InDemand-Asian Street Food & Burger Bar - Burgers Near Me - Winston-salem, North Carolina

This seems like a great place that I hope really takes off because they fill the role of providing late night food near a lot of bars. They are, of course, a bar/restaurant themselves and serve a good variety of decent beers, wine, liquor and mixed drinks. This place is advertised and named in a way that suggests it's primarily Asian food and while that is a large portion of its menu there did seem to be a good variety of other foods too. I had a few $3 Singha's which is a pretty solid Thai beer, but they also had a good selection of local North Carolina craft beers from breweries such Red Oak, Wiseman and King Canary. I tried a sampler plata of Gyoza, Crab Rangoons and Spring Rolls. They were all pretty good but I'd say the Crab Rangoons were the best by far but I don't know if I'd order the Gyoza or Spring Rolls on their own. I also tried a "Bao Flight" of 5 Bao. They were hot Chicken, Korean BBQ, Tofu with grilled onions and cucumbers, Pork Belly and Shrimp with "Yum Yum" sauce. They were all quite good, the Korean BBQ and Pork Belly being the big standouts. The Bao were well done but not very large and not very filling, even 5 of them. To round things out I ordered a few "Kushiyaki" aka Japanese Skewers, a Bacon Asparagus and Shishito pepper skewer. They were decent but as you can imagine not terribly filling. After all that I was feeling like I needed something more substantial so I ordered a basket of Cuban "Communal Fries". They really hit the spot as simple straightforward bar food that filled you up. The service was great, even though they apparently had a call-out and were short staffed the bartender Terrence who was pulling double duty as busser/waiter did a great job and was very friendly and attentive. The restaurant itself had a traditional sit-down area and a bar area as well. It didn't really feel like there was a lot of notable decor that stood out to me, but that's ok. Something more to give it a bit more spirit and personality would've been nice though. Overall it's a decent place with good solid selection of food and beer with extended hours. In addition to everything else mentioned the menu also features burgers. While I usually like a place with variety I do wonder if maybe they are trying to do too much and should be more focused. Some of the food like the Bao is really not very filling at all considering the cost. Despite this and the other criticisms listed above I still think this is a promising late night spot that is worth checking out at least once and maybe making a regular visit if you live nearby and find yourself wanting to eat late often. read more

This place is legit. Our new go-to takeout spot. Everything we have ordered has been incredible! We've only done takeout so far so I can't speak to the indoor experience, but the food is delicious.

It's great to see a restaurant with this concept in this part of town, especially with the late-night hours. While it still needs some fine-tuning, I can definitely see the vision they're working toward. The menu is an interesting mix of Asian-inspired dishes and American bar food. I ordered the skewers with a side of rice, and they were a huge hit--the meat was cooked to perfection and the peppers were delicious! Overall, I really appreciated the hospitality and great customer service. read more

Underwhelming but solid concept and good food. I was excited to try this place out, since Asian fusion food is one of my favorite cuisines. We were able to find parking in their small lot (yay!) and chose to sit inside. The space was open and there was plenty of available seating on a Saturday night. They had a lovely cocktail menu. However, I opted to spend more of my food and decided not to go with a cocktail this time. I chose the main lobster roll as my entree and the crab rangoon as an appetizer. The crab rangoon was stuffed very full and was dominated heavily by the cream cheese and not the crab. They were crispy and tasty! However, at the $13 price point, I wasn't blown away with the 7 crab rangoon option. The lobster rolls were tasty and the lobster had good flavor. In spite of it being a two-roll meal, it seemed like the rolls were a bit understuffed with lobster meat and that they were strategically propped up in holders to make them look fuller than they were. Also, my fries weren't very warm. I'm sure they would have heated them up if I asked, but I was in eat-mode and didn't make the request. I think that if I come back, I'll try the drunken noodles or something else on the menu. Everything I ate tasted good, I just wasn't blown away by the flavors or the value for money. One suggestion I have for this spot is to add a couple of tofu protein options to their menu (especially on the pad thai). Overall, this place is worth stopping in, since there is a decent amount of menu variety. With so many spots nearby, I don't think it's going to be at the top of my list for a future visit. I would return though! read more

Food was okay. Seemed like the place needed a bit of upkeep. The manager was very nice and chatted with us a bit (almost a little too much).

Once again a good experience at indemand. Went in right after opening and we were greeted and attended to very quickly. The man was nice like always and the food came out pretty quick and nice and fresh. The skewers were nice and flavorful. Mac and cheese balls are a must try they have a great taste and the sauce goes great. I love the chicken caprese sandwich as well, the ingredients on it go very well together. The crispy chicken with rice was very good and had pineapples which is different. Cool place to hit whether it's lunch or late night highly recommend. read more

I was looking forward to our visit based on some recent reviews from trusted Yelpers, but I am sure if you have been doing this as long as I have you know that not every experience is the same. We came here on Sunday afternoon, to an almost empty restaurant, which is not a good sign, but it was a weird time. Parking has always been a challenge for this location but you can find lots above it and walk down to it. Our server was nice, but seemed to forget some things because we didn't get the mac-n-cheese balls that we ordered and even though we were the only people there it took 30 minutes to get our food. We had to remind our server about the mac-n-cheese balls. I ordered the Cuban burger, which on paper seemed like a Cuban sandwich, but instead was a burger with pulled pork on it, some kind of sauce, and pickles. It was not a Cuban sandwich or close to it and should not have been named "Cuban" and given the description since it did not come close. It would be better to have a Cuban sandwich on the menu if you are taking notes InDemand, since they are delicious and not easy to find here in WS. I got some spring rolls so that my wife could share those, as I said when we ordered I had anticipated the mac-n-cheese balls that were to come out, but our server was absent and so was the appetizer. The mac-n-cheese balls turned out to be the best thing. My wife tried to get me to try her dish, but said, "It was saturated in soy sauce and had no flavor", I let her know I would pass on the tasting. I will also pass on any return to InDemand. read more

We were looking for something different last weekend and my wife suggested InDemand. She had heard good things about it online and knew they serve both burgers and Asian food. Located in the old Hops Burger Bar location we were familiar with the building and parking. We aren't sure why some people complain about the parking lot for this building. In our experiences there has always been parking available within the parking lot and you are not forced to try to find street parking nearby. We arrived shortly after 11am and were immediately greeted. We asked if we could sit in the bar area and we were provided menus and welcomed by a couple of employees. We asked for recommendations and one of the first suggestions were the drunken noodles. We also noticed the Mac and cheese ball appetizers and knew we had to try them. My wife chose the kale cashew salad with lemongrass dressing and our server was helpful in explaining the size of the ala carte skewers. Ultimately, she chose one chicken yakitori and one shrimp. I ordered the drunken noodles with chicken and we ordered three of the mac and cheese balls as an appetizer. The space itself looks clean and well taken care of. We couldn't help but notice we were the only ones seated at first but about the time our food arrived there were two other tables seated with 5 or more people. The Mac and cheese balls arrived and looked delicious, they tasted as good as they looked and we wouldn't change one thing about them. Our entrees arrived and also looked incredible. My wife commented that hers was very flavorful and the lemongrass dressing on top of all the fresh veggies and protein was refreshing. My drunken noodles were really yummy too. The flavors were delicious and we truly enjoyed each and every bite. We highly recommend InDemand and hope they can be successful. They have a great thing going! read more

I FINALLY got a chance to try it out a few weekends ago! I've been trying to get there for a while now. No secret that parking at this location is tricky-but there's a larger parking lot right up the hill. The service was so good! Our server was so friendly and attentive. The restaurant seems to be split in two different areas, bar and table seating. I saw on a flyer they also do college nights. I ordered and espresso martini which was great, and split a ton of food with my friend. The truffle fries were fantastic. I loved the Korean barbecue bao buns, but thought the burnt end buns were a bit too tough. The crab rangoons though-HOLY COW. So dang good. Sadly the Mac and cheese balls were the same as you'd get anywhere else. We also shared the drunken noodles! I didn't love them, but the next day they were absolutely delish straight from the refrigerator. Definitely looking forward to going back! read more

We ordered our fried Mac n cheese and I must say..they are delicious..I could have two orders of this stuff with a cold beer and be happy. But my husband's Cuban burger was a big disappointment for him, the spring rolls were over fried and nothing special and my veggie drunken noodles were just not good, too soy sauce drenched , salty and had pieces of chicken in it actually.

This place knows what it is and what it's not. It's not a fine dining restaurant. It is the place that's open till 2am on Friday and Saturday nights, ready to fulfill the after-drinks cravings. Want a burger? Check. Chicken wings? Check. Pho? Check. Chili cheese fries? Check. Seriously, the menu is chaos, but if you're visiting at midnight, it might just be the chaos you're looking for. The wait staff are friendly and attentive and it's really not too loud in there. I'm glad this little place exists, even if it's not where I'd go at 6pm for a nice dinner. read more

Terrible .. service was weird and disjointed, app was short and then we were told it might not be correct, that our crab Rangoon might actually be strawberry cheesecake instead but we'd just have to figure that out as we go huh?, my husbands fries in this little paper dish was quickly removed and replaced with an apology, weird, my drink was terrible, after having no drink guide to go by I ordered a go to mojito and it was horrible, wasted money, crab Rangoon was terrible, chunky and tasteless, chicken dish was like if I had gotten a frozen meal and heated it up, overall disappointing flop of an experience, will never go back read more

Let me first admit my bias up front. The idea of "Asian Street Food & Burger Bar" is RIGHT up my alley, but I have purposely not come here simply because of the branding (the yellow/purple sign or the neon looking burger) or the name. Talk about judging a book by its cover! I got takeout here last weekend for the first time and LOVED it. I tried the Bao hot chicken buns. The pickles added a nice crunch to the meat which was flavorful but not spicy, and the buns were incredibly soft and delicious. I also tried the mac-n-cheese balls (based on Yelp recommendations) and those were excellent as well, though I couldn't find a sauce I loved. I feel I need to apologize from judging you from a distance - I would ABSOLUTELY come here again! read more

InDemand-Asian Street Food & Burger Bar - Bao Bun-Seoul Hot Chicken - Burgers Near Me - Winston-salem, North Carolina

Asian street food and a burger bar - interesting combination for sure - it occupies the small place that previously housed Hops. The interior is attractively appointed, bright and modern. There is a very limited amount of parking in the front, 7 spots or so, but there is some more parking a short ways up Northwestern - not the ideal situation, but workable for some folks. When I arrived 10 minutes before opening, 3 of the spots were already taken by staff - not cool when you are trying to build a customer base in an awkward spot! I ordered the 3 piece Mac & Cheese Balls and the Seoul Hot Chicken Bao Bun. And they carry Tsingtao Lager, one of my very favorite beers. Both dishes were well sized and attractively presented. As has been noted in other reviews on Yelp, the Mac & Cheese Balls are excellent, and the taste is even better when the accompanying sauce is liberally applied - a bit of initial sweetness moved away at the end by a nice amount of heat, great sauce!!! The Seoul Hot Chicken was an equally excellent dish, the sauce on this also makes the dish - another sweet start with a warm finish, excellent on the tender, flavorful white meat chicken. Great first time visit, will be back. NOTE: Their suggested tip amounts are based on the total that includes sales tax! read more
