We came here for lunch I got a coffee and a deluxe tuna sandwich which came with two sides. I loved the fried squash. The cabbage was spicy which I loved. The coffee was good. The waitress was a bit forgetful but still nice. My husband order a chicken gyro which he enjoyed. It looks like they can accommodate large groups so I would come here with more people.

Driven pass this spot 1000 times and never thought to pop in. Glad I did. On sight, gives a cafeteria vibe but after looking at the menu and tasting the food its far from it. Food has great flavor and the service is very southern hospitality style. Excellent restaurant.

We had a family get-together and came to get some takeout salads. We were very happy with the generous portions. The next day we came to dine at the restaurant and were pleased with the spacious, clean indoor seating. Our waitress was very friendly and helpful. The menu has lots of options. Southern fare with some Mediterranean influence.

Olympic is so close to my office and I often visit here for a quick takeout lunch. The menu has a wide variety of southern fare, Greek food, standard american, but they also serve breakfast. The prices are beyond reasonable and the portions large, but you get what you pay for. I love this place for the array of vegetables. I try to take a healthy route for my lunches, so the vegetable plates are the way to go. Like most restaurants like these, don't expect a lot of flavor, but sometimes it's nice to just have the food with no frills. I do also order the chicken souvlaki. It's tasty but served on a hamburger bun? Not sure why, and I leave it on the plate, but that's okay. The owner is a blonde, tattooed Greek gentleman with a large personality and booming Greek accent. He really adds to the flair of this restaurant. I've had quite a few conversations through the drive through with him and he always makes me laugh. They do have a drive through, but you call ahead and pick it up. The order is always ready in about 10-15 minutes. Super convenient!

I've been hearing good things about this place but the menu looked simple so I was hesitant. Well it's easy to say I was very wrong about being iffy when it comes to what we were served. When we walked in we were greeted by a very friendly host who put us at a window seat which was really nice. I love having a view with my meal. The space is also very reminiscent of fine dining with the white table cloths, candles, and flowers on the table. It's also worth saying they have several lunch specials aside from what's on their regular lunch menu. Our server was also a very friendly gentleman who gave great recs when we asked. My friend got the French onion dumplings and she LOVED them. I got the brussel sprouts and with the accompaniment of the goat cheese and dried cranberries, they were probably the best I've ever had. I almost ate all of the huge bowl. I got the chicken sandwich for my meal that was dipped in a hot honey like sauce and it was also great. Very juicy and the ranch I got on the side was a great addition. I also got the truffle fries and they were super yummy. Overall an excellent experience and I'm so excited to come back and try their dinner menu. A must if you're in the Kernersville area!

My mom has been to Melt now 4x and keeps getting this sandwich because it's just that tasty. It's quite big and she usually comes home with half her sandwich. This was my first time and it's the kind of sandwich that'll bring me back again very soon. The fries were very good and Brussels were delicious! We did order the chocolate, peppermint cheesecake to share. It was really a piece of chocolate cheesecake (with a yummy oreo crust), topped with mint and candy canes. That's okay, though, because it was really good! The restaurant is pretty small and cozy so I can imagine there could be a wait sometimes.

He made sure everything was perfect! We started off with the Cheese Sticks with both ranch dressing and marinara sauce! The marinara sauce was really good! The ranch dressing was too watered down for my taste!!! The cheese sticks were hot and fresh! Very gooey and good! He ordered the 13 Bones burger with fries. The burger had amazing flavor! The fries were a bit too salty, but they were perfectly cooked and served hot! I ordered the Buffalo Chicken Sandwich with their homemade chips! I ordered an extra side of dressing for both my sandwich and the chips. I just cannot rave enough about how amazing my entire meal was! Those chips were PERFECT!!!! Already looking forward to our next visit! Most Sincerely, Dayla

I had high hopes. The food and reviews looked good…read more We arrived and there was a full parking lot, always a good sign. We were sat quickly. The server was super nice. It was very cold where we were sitting and the server allowed us to move to a warmer spot. We ordered a fried mushroom appetizer. This was very good. They came with ranch and I think it was the horseradish sauce. The orangish sauce was very good. I ordered 1/2 rack of dry ribs with mac & cheese and green beans, and 2 hushpuppies. You get a choice of Texas toast, hushpuppies, or rolls. My coworker ordered salmon. When the food came out, my ribs were wet. I told the server that I had ordered dry rub. He stated they were dry but had sauce on them. I'm sorry, that is not a "dry rib", in my opinion. The first piece of rib meat I ate was soft and juicy. The next two were super dry and I could not eat any more of them. My coworker joked that that was probably what they were referring to when they said "dry rub". The green beans were ok. I added a ton of pepper and some hot sauce. I saved the mac & cheese for lunch the next day. The hushpuppies were dense and needed a little more flavor. My coworker commented that her salmon was ok but nothing to write home about. I should have went with my first instinct and ordered from the kids menu. The prices are very reasonable and the atmosphere is nice.

We made reservations and were seated right away. Our waiter, David, was absolutely amazing. He was incredibly knowledge about the menu, honest with his recommendations, personable, and very attentive throughout our visit. (Somebody give that man a raise!) The atmosphere was warm, sophisticated, and causal all at the same time.The dim lights created a nice ambiance without being so dark that you can't see. The dining room offers a mix of traditional tables, semi-private booths and a bar area. They also have a private room available. The bathroom was very clean and even smelled fresh. They had a good mix of music and a television is available at the bar. Now for the really important stuff. The food was absolutely amazing! I tried the Moravian cookie-pecan crusted salmon with collard greens, zucchini. The meal was a nice size and tasted amazing. I ate every bite. For dessert, we tried the White chocolate-almond bread pudding with vanilla bean ice cream. I'm usually not a bread pudding kinda girl, but this was the exception.

I am happy to report that my last visit won me over... I now understand why so many people in Greensboro love this restaurant. It was a ridiculously cold night, and as soon as I walked in, the space looked and felt warm and inviting. I started with a cocktail, an espresso martini, and it was perfectly made. We ordered the crab dip for an appetizer, and the game changer was asking for crostini instead of the crackers they normally serve it with. I ordered the Panko crusted tuna served over wilted greens and polenta with a plum gastrique for my main dish. It was absolutely phenomenal. I loved it so much that I plan to go back within the next week or so to eat it again - it really was that delicious! My friend ordered a pasta dish which she also said was delicious. After this experience, I am definitely putting Green Valley Grill into my restaurant rotation.
