chicken pita & fries
Symone B.

Restaurant was very clean, staff was so friendly and the food was SO good. I got the fried chicken pita and it came out very warm, the pita bread was so soft and the chicken was very flavorful. The ranch was also AMAZING.. you could tell it was homemade and it was perfect for dipping the pita to bring it all together. I will definitely be back!!

Mel's Grill hides in plain sight on Sashabaw Rd. It's name could suggest Coneys or cocktails. Well stopping in after passing it for ages I can tell you it's Coneys and that's fine. The place was hopping on a late Saturday morning with nearly every table full. But the tables seemed to turn quickly so i was seated immediately. The menu had all of the casual dining staples with a twist. I opted for a southern eggs Benedict. What's that you ask? Well it's 2 biscuits with a sausage patty and poached egg on each smothered in biscuit gravy! Plus a side of crispy hash browns! I ate like I was going to the chair! A fantastic twist on a morning staple. I was solo so other dishes will have to wait for another visit, and there will be another. Hit Mel's for classic fare that can't be beat! Mel's Grill....Go!!

This was truly the brunch moment we needed when my friend and I were in the area for the Antique Festival! We walked in and we're able to quickly sit in the patio. I had the western omelet as a skillet and was wowed by the huge portion! Everything tasted so fresh and the eggs were perfectly fluffy! Service was great! We came in pretty late for "brunch" but everyone was super friendly and helpful! The vibe on the patio was pure perfection to enjoy a nice spring/summer day! Definitely a great place to stop by if you're in the area!

Had the Rueben and fries. The Rueben was grilled. It was very light on meat. The fries were good and crispy not greasy.

So this was a nice find. Located off of Sashabaw rd. in a spot that, if you blink you'd drive right…read morepast it (we did), sits Fireside Kitchen. It's a nice, clean place that honestly could use a professional interior decorator, but the staff was friendly, and the food was absolutely delicious. We had a party of six and no one complained. The short rib pasta dish had a nice bite to it it was very flavorful and they didn't skimp on the short rib portion size. The steak sandwich was excellent and according to our friends, the pork chop was one of the best they've ever eaten. And while we didn't get to experience it, apparently there's a speakeasy in the basement. Cool! I imagine the locals in the area know about this place but if you are not a local ( we were not) it's worth the drive. Just don't blink when driving near Pelton road or you'll miss it.

We made a reservation here for dinner before a concert at Pine Knob. Very unassuming front the…read moreoutside, a beautiful interior with high ceilings and a very striking back bar. Our server was Bella, she couldn't be sweeter. She was very helpful when we had questions about the menu and accommodated our requests. We started with the bread and butters, herb butter and goat cheese butter, it was good. We were hoping to get the Burrata with peach, but it was sold out (our reservation was at 5:30, btw). We ordered cocktails including the Fireside Old Fashioned, which were good. I got the Pineapple Express, but I asked for tequila instead of Mezcal. It had a nice kick. We also had an espresso martini which was good and not made with anything creamy (in case you care). I got the ribeye French dip with fries (more like wedges and yummy!) The sandwich had Horseradish sauce, arugula, and pickled red onions. I enjoyed it without the au jus even. My boyfriend got 3 carne asada tacos, bigger than the average taco, and they were decent, not bad and I also realize that this is not a Mexican restaurant. He also got French onion soup, which he likes to get often. He said it was bland and not very cheesy. Our friends both ordered flat breads. Pepperoni and hot honey, and Prosciutto and melon, both really liked what they ordered. I wish we had time to go and check out the speakeasy downstairs, next time we come to Pine Knob, we will come extra early and check it out.

We moved here from Chicago last summer and Drayton Cafe is just around the corner…read more Since discovering Drayton it is our GO TO spot for a great lunch or breakfast. The women that run this joint are AWESOME! And yes, I said women, because every time I'm there they are ruling the griddle and tables. Service is always prompt and the food is always delicious. We spend almost every weekend here enjoying their biscuits and gravy breakfast special. For around $6 you get a 1/2 order of biscuits and gravy, 2 eggs, and hashbrowns or meat. All of my favorite breakfast items in one special! The biscuits are lightly toasted and the gravy is rich and creamy without being too spicy. During the week I frequently order BLTs to go - my favorite combination of perfectly toasted bread, crisp bacon, and fresh tomato! I was hesitant to leave them a review because this place gets busy enough on the weekends, but if you are in the area definitely check them out for breakfast or lunch, it's a hidden gem.

This place is everything that you want in a hometown diner. Atmosphere, charm, great service and…read moreall of the food seems to be made with very good ingredients. Everything my friend and I had was absolutely perfect. The eggs were light and fluffy. The sausage was cooked with just the right amount of char and the bacon was excellent and crispy. I can't wait to come here again. What a wonderful little diner. All of the employees were very, very nice, friendly and professional.
