2 well sized, bone-in pork chops, nicely cooked
Fred B.

I have eaten at this Southern diner a handful of times and both the quality of both food and service is good. This is a small place with maybe 20 tables and booths, and they are close together so the conversation noise can be distracting! On my latest visit I again chose the fried bone-in pork chops, along with mashed potatoes with gravy and pinto beans. My order was out quickly and everything was nicely prepared. Total cost, with sweet tea, was $12.54. This is a nice Southern diner, simple place with good food and good service. I recommend! Note that they do charge a surcharge for CC use - their choice. My choice is to adjust my tip to compensate, which I did!

We were in the area and my wife did some searching to find a place for breakfast or lunch. She remembered Southern Spice had great reviews and since we had not been in before, we thought we would check it out. She noticed the lunch menu starts at 11am so, we decided to target our arrival to get lunch. The restaurant is located at the end of a small strip mall just off I-40. The parking lot is large with adequate space. We arrived shortly after 11am. Inside they have a combination of booths and tables. We were greeted and promptly seated at a table with menus and told our server would be with us shortly. Our server arrived and took our drink orders. We also told her it was our first time in and asked her for recommendations and the most popular items. My wife decided to order the Bacon Mushroom Swiss burger (8oz patty with bacon, mushroom & Swiss cheese) without the bun and onion rings. She also added a small side salad with no cheese and ranch dressing. She was given the choice of iceberg or mixed greens which made her happy since she is not a fan of iceberg. I chose the Cowboy burger (8oz patty with bacon, American cheese, onion rings, lettuce, tomato & BBQ sauce) without the tomato and tater tots. The salad arrrived first and we felt it was a nice side salad for the price. Our meals arrived in a timely fashion and looked delicious. My burger did have the tomato on it, which I removed and didn't mention to our server. After our meals were served no one came by to check in on us for quite some time. We needed more napkins and water refills. My wife had finished her water and ended up drinking most of mine before we were able to get her attention and ask for more. We really enjoyed our food and commented several times on how affordable the prices were. However, the service was not attentive, friendly but not attentive. Also, the men's and women's restrooms need attention and do not match the interior dining area which appeared clean and comfortable. In addition, neither of the automatic paper towel dispensers worked and there were no other paper towels which is partially why we asked for more napkins. Based on our experience, this would likely be a future takeout stop for us. We prefer other neighborhood eateries for table service. Overall, the food was a four, however, the lack of service and the cleanliness of the restrooms have us questioning the cleanliness of the kitchen resulting in an overall 3 star rating.

Open faced turkey sandwich
Mary Y.

The was good. Our small flounder/shrimp platter was a bit disappointing. The flounder filet was so thin the coating was thicker than the filet. However, the shrimp though small was tender and delicious. The slaw and mac and cheese were pretty good. The open faced turkey was delicious even though it was turkey roll the flavor of the gravy and fries was wonderful. The service however was GREAT. Hostess and servers were very kind, attentive. They were well staves and ran a tight ship. Even the cashier was supper nice. The restaurant was very clean and with plenty of seating.

3 egg sampler
Tim K.

Met a friend here at the crack of dawn at 7am when this place opened for breakfast. The place was clean and warm (heat was on this chilly morning) We sat ourselves since we were the first ones there and there was only one server so early. Our server was friendly and welcoming. I ordered the three egg special sampler over-medium, with two slices of bacon, link sausage and ham. Got the biscuit and gravy too. The food was quickly prepared to order. Eggs were glorious and soft. Bacon crispy, sausage and hand nicely browned. Biscuit was golden brown on the outside and fluffy and soft inside. Sausage gravy was creamy and delicious. I also got a cup of coffee which they kept full the entire time. And price? Not bad. Two full breakfasts and a coffee for $17. This is a great little place to eat. They drop in and say hello.

We came for a Mother's Day celebration (on Saturday night) and they gave us the coolest table in…read morethe restaurant! It had a flame effect in the middle of the table. We had a couple spinach and artichoke dip to share, and our dinners ranged from chicken Parmesan, the seafood pasta, to beef tenderloin. All the food was very good, no complaints at all from my wife or any of my kids. For dessert we shared the lemon blueberry cake, the banana pudding cake, and brownie and ice cream. We passed them around and everybody loved them all. The server was very nice, and we had a great experience. This place was about 30 minutes from us, so I'm not sure if we'll be back, but I definitely recommend this to anyone celebrating a special occasion or that lives nearby.

First time here after new ownership earlier this year. I've heard mixed reviews so thought I'd…read morecheck it out myself. Walking up there's a lot of greenery!! Apparently for the patio seating so you don't see the parking lot it's in. We sat outside but the little time I was inside it looked really nice . Nice bar area. Seating looked good. Patio is equipped with fans and I think heaters in winter. They have a wine list and cocktail list. I thought they would have more cocktails listed but they have a full bar so I assume you can order anything. I went with a red blend wine. My friend had the Pinot Grigio. All brands I've heard of so nothing new to me which I usually prefer. My friend and I decided to go with a few small plates/appetizers to share . Our server kinda went rogue on us after dropping off our wine so I had to go inside to ask the hostess for him to come back! We tried the ahi tuna, the Brussel sprouts and we got the bread which I love was named you knead this! Everything was good. I enjoyed the tuna. Nicely crusted on sesame seeds and cooked perfectly rare like I prefer. The seaweed salad was yams it came with sticky rice too. Great presentation . Definitely the best thing we had. The Sprouts were also good. Flash fried though I would have preferred roasted. So heavier than I normally like. They had good flavor though and was plentiful. The bread was really good . 4 different types of rolls and butter. All delicious. Would have liked a dessert but none of them sounded that great to us. So we passed. They have a meat heavy menu for entrees. Which I know has changed since takeover. I'd probably just do apps again if I come back. Nice enough dining for Davie county. Feel like the menu could be tweaked though.

I finally had a chance to give this place a try, and I'm glad I did. I had seen photos of several…read moreitems that I wanted to try - Southwestern Egg Rolls, Brussels Sprouts, Cauliflower Bites - maybe the pizza next time! Ordered all three items to share, and each one was a good choice. The Brussels Sprouts were perfectly cooked, not with the outer leaves burnt like you often see! The SW Egg Rolls were nice, but not quite as flavorful as those at Chili's. The items are not made in house, not even at Chili's, they are purchased frozen from a supplier like Sysco or US Food. I would order this again, and the Blue Cheese dressing was very good. The Cauliflower Bites were equally good, and I switched out the aioli for Blue Cheese, and it was perfect. I realize this is primarily a wood fire pizza place and I'll try one a some point, but these three items were plenty good!

Just ate (or tried to) eat dinner at Tanglewood Pizza tonight and besides our server Samantha, I…read morereally don't have anything good to say about the food. First, I tried a calzone. Burnt to the point when Samantha put it in front of me she said if I didn't like the burnt she would have it fixed. I decided to give it a shot and started with the filling...lukewarm at best. So I tried the sauce...dead cold, not even a bit warm. Lastly, I tried the crust to see if that was any good and it was raw in the middle. I was stretching dough when Samantha came back and she saw what was going on and scooped up the calzone and said she would make it right. I asked her to just make me a pizza instead since I was already disappointed and didn't want to go through that again. Pizza comes and flop city. The couple that I ate with were not impressed either. One had a plain cheeze and the other had a Hawaiian. Sorry to say we will not be back. Too expensive for such mediocre food. Samantha was the only good thing about going to this restaurant, and I wish her well. Tanglewood Pizza, you need to do a lot better for your customers.

Bottom line: Honestly, I want 3.5 stars given here. The decor and seating area is looking like it…read morecould benefit from some attention. Service was adequate for the most part here. My hamburger steak and the biscuits were very good this time even though my broccoli side was lacking, Dad enjoyed his pancakes and particularly his fried eggs as well. Going with 4 stars but only because the visit deserves more than 3 stars for some of the food, again really want to go with 3.5 stars if I could. The Deets: When visiting the folks for the Father's Day weekend, Dad said he wanted to head by Cracker Barrel and get some pancakes for a late brunch so we stopped the nearest one over in Clemmons. It's been years since I visited this location, and honestly, really nothing much has changed from what I remember. It is the same basic formula with the country store area as you enter and then you go to the host desk to the side for the dining area. Luckily since we were stopping by a bit later even for a lunch, the crowd had left for the most part and we were seated promptly. Again, everything in the seating area is the same and could really use some TLC (lots of dust on the ceiling fans, more than a rustic type of appearance that could use a refresh, etc.) Our server was very nice in letting us having a few extra minutes to take in both the breakfast and lunch/dinner menus so we could decided what we wanted to go with today. Dad stuck with his pancakes, adding fried eggs and sausage. Mom got the Old Timers Breakfast menu selection, and I decided on the hamburger steak with two sides of steak fries/steamed broccoli. I enjoyed my coffee as we waited for our meals. Once they arrived, Dad really enjoyed his pancakes and particularly complimented the fried eggs. Mom was OK with her breakfast, nothing extraordinary or bad noted from her. My hamburger steak was really good, not dried out and plenty of flavor, I enjoyed it. My mother and I really liked the biscuits, baked just right. Steak fries were OK, but there were a good number of them extra greasy though. My steamed broccoli was cooked just a bit too long, not very much crunch left to it and pretty bland (Mom tasted and agreed with the latter). I went back and forth between 3 and 4 stars for this visit, I really wish I could give 3.5 stars here. In looking at everything, I really think in the long run they deserve more than 3 stars with the good hamburger steak and biscuits as well as Dad really enjoying his pancakes/fried eggs so I will go with 4 stars, just knowing I feel like 3.5 stars honestly.

The food is good ole home cooking with Lima beans swimming in butter. I had the grilled chicken salad and cup of chicken noodle soup, while hubby had hammer steak with grilled onions, brown gravy, rice and those Lima beans. The atmosphere is always the same for any Cracker Barrel. Interesting that the antiques decorating these restaurants have been procured by professional pickers shopping yard sales, estate sales, and thru collectors.
