    Sorry food was so good almost forgot to take a picture.
    Alexander P.

    My girlfriend and I were driving back from Orlando today. Pennsylvania is a long drive away so we decided to stop in North Carolina for some Carolina BBQ. We wanted to go to another BBQ place but it was closed and we stumbled upon Smithfield, and I am sure glad that we did! The food was amazing and we both got our cravings filled for BBQ and Fried Chicken. The meal was very cheap and was a nice change from Orlando prices. They provide you with a large helping of food. You get two sides and a half dozen hush puppies. We left filled and happy. The service was absolutely amazing! We were helped be what I think was one of the managers and he was absolutely amazing! He helped us order, checked in on us, and came back and gave us refills on our drinks. All other employees were also willing to help and make our meal as wonderful as possible. Overall, great food for a great price. Outstanding service that will bring us back anytime we pass through North Carolina!

    Ordered this through door dash. It was horrible. Ordered the combo plate. The barbecue was disgusting; it was actually purple! The fried chicken was questionably done. The potato salad was watery. The baked beans had slimy particles in it. We spent $40 total for delivery, etc. I threw every bit of it in the trash can. I think this was the 2nd time in my life I've ever eaten at Smithfield BarBQ; I will never eat there again. I will warn anyone against eating there. I guarantee that if we had eaten any of that "food," we would have gotten sick. I wish I could give a zero rating.

    BBQ chicken and Brunswick stew
    Crystal H.

    Very small pieces of chicken. BBQ is nothing to brag about. It's ok. The Brunswick stew is bland. It doesn't have that same tangy ness as Bill's bbq. Prices are too high for what you get. People are nice.

She called us sugar, sweetie, honey and cutie. She kept the beverages filled. And got the food order right. Food - the food was cooked to order, so it was hot and tasted great. They offer 2 daily specials see the picture of the menu. It was Thursday so they had BBQ Chicken and Hamburger Steak. You get two vegetables and a roll. Deserts were also made daily in house.

Super friendly service and a warm inviting atmosphere with table linens and seating that is nicely spaced to afford you more intimacy than most places. We shared a couple of the starters: Philly egg rolls and the spinach dip with fresh made pita chips. Both were excellent. We also had the chicken wrap, shrimp wrap, Cobb salad, and the chicken salad. All of the entrees were great. My favorite had to be the fresh cut and fried potato slices- whatever you order, don't miss those! It's a banquet hall and catering business but it does a very brisk brunch business and there were three groups there who were celebrating special occasions, so it can accommodate groups of various sizes pretty easily.

With that, the photos aren't the best as the food didn't show up picture perfect. HOWEVER - it didn't take from the TASTE of the food! Oh boy - if you are looking for that southern dish you remember from childhood as a country kiddo - here you go! The only item I wouldn't get again is the black eyed peas - they were bland and we don't do no seasoning! Which was odd because everything was seasoned so well. The fried green tomato sandwich with pimento cheese - big back activated! The flavors melted together with each bite - I'm thinking of getting another one right now. The hamburger steak AND the burger you can tell were freshly prepared with real meat. Seasoned down. So good. The star of the show - the dang on chicken salad. It's not overly sweet, it's real chicken, it's perfect texture - it's all the things needed to enjoy a nice serving of it without having to add something to compensate. We will be back.

I've attached a photo of the menu; the offerings are okay -- not bad. I got the build-your-omelet with bacon, spinach, mushrooms, and cheese. I asked for a side of sour cream, but got an excuse that they didn't have any because they apparently are "usually out of that by Sundays." To be fair, that isn't the server's fault but more of a reflection on the establishment overall. If you're gonna serve brunch, then you need to order your supplies and keep them stocked like you do that bar (which is extremely well stocked). The morning brunch service was a bit slow; and when my omelet came, it was ... what shall we say ... anemic? It was the smallest in size and flattest/skinniest omelet I think I've ever had anywhere. Let's put it this way: I was still hungry when we left. Orange juice was good; I wouldn't get the coffee again. When our server finally came to our table to check us out, she didn't know how to use the restaurant's own coupon to deduct it from our bill. My sister can save the coupon for later, but ... really? This joint is in a nice spot of downtown Wilson, within walking distance of the new baseball park and other restaurants and bars. It's one of several places that you could "bar hop" on a Friday or Saturday night with friends. That may be a different experience -- but R&R's brunch has some work to do.

    This was our first time experiencing Daniel's Casual Fine Dining. I really like the ambiance…read moreinside, great place for a date night or a special family occasion. Our server was quite nice and was able to answer our menu questions. Our meal began with the soup of the day, Chicken Tortilla Soup. It was quite tasty, full of veggies that you would find in a pico de gallo nestled in a rich tomato broth, topped with crispy tortilla strips and served in a very small 8oz cup. What was missing was the chicken... I think I encountered one very small cube of chicken in one of those bites. My husband had the bowl size and echoed the same sentiment. For entre, I ordered the Blue Cheese and Apple Salad and made it a meal with the delicately fried oysters. The portions were great for a meal, but I expected more diversity in the salad greens. I received a mound of spinach that would make Popeye extremely happy. I would have loved some crispy romaine to vary the density of the spinach. However, the house dressing and candied walnuts added a great touch. My husband ordered the Cajun Chicken Pasta which I sampled. I loved the sausage and the complexity of flavors for this dish. My son had the crab cakes which were also greatly portioned. He said that the cakes were very good, but for the premium prices he'd expected more crab and less filler. Nevertheless, he still cleaned his plate. Overall, we had a pleasant evening, but for what you pay for a meal, I expected a little bit more.

    Food was very good. Server was competent. Ambiance was quiet. They were not busy…read more When I'm in Wilson again, I'd be happy to go there again.
