This was the worst barbecue I've ever had. I love barbecue. I'm on a road trip and stop for…read morebarbecue everywhere. In the past two weeks I've had barbecue five times. Texas, Alabama, Tennessee twice. And now, North Carolina. The ribs were bone dry, barely warm. The baked beans had been poured out of a can with no attempt to doctor them up a bit. Baked beans is one of the easiest things to make. Dumping them out of a can is just lazy. The collard greens were flavorless and mushy. The food was thrown onto the plate. It came out in two minutes so the ribs were just kept warm in a steam table. Explains why they were so dried out. They put the little cup of vinegar that the waitress had touched with her hands sitting on top of my greens so that anything that was on her hands was now on top of my collard greens. Gross. I ordered four bones and the size of the portion was way too small. It looked like two ribs, just because it had four bones in it doesn't mean it was four ribs worth of meat. I got up to go to the bathroom and when I came back, they had bussed my table and taken my food. Terrible food. Terrible service.

Absolutely delightful!…read more Adaline's Sweet Treats in Wilkesboro is an absolute gem. From the moment you walk in, the service is warm, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. You can tell they truly care about their customers and their craft. The selection is excellent -- so many beautiful and tempting treats to choose from, it's honestly hard to decide. Everything is thoughtfully made and visually stunning (this cupcake alone was almost too pretty to eat!). The flavors are just as impressive as the presentation -- fresh, perfectly balanced, and clearly made with high-quality ingredients. If you're looking for amazing desserts, incredible service, and a local spot that clearly pours love into what they do, Adaline's Sweet Treats is a must-visit. I'll absolutely be back!

The standard menu is small, but there are daily specials that are both affordable and excellent. I had the scallop special with crab/clam chowder--fantastic. The scallops were cooked perfectly. For dessert, the honey peach cheesecake paired beautifully with my old fashioned. The servers were friendly and attentive. They also serve as bartenders, so drinks can take a little longer than at a typical restaurant, but it's clear they work hard and stay engaged with guests. Overall, this is a great spot that I highly recommend.

We took a day off from work to spend some good quality time together. We were headed straight for…read moreone of our favorite restaurants in Blowing Rock and then on the way I said, nope, starting now we are venturing out more like we used to. New experiences this next year and starting now! I searched online while the hubby drove and came up with this spot. I ordered the three-meat plate which included two sides and hushpuppies, and my husband ordered the fish and chips (shocker-Brit!), which also included two sides of his choice. He raved about the piece of fish and after taking a bite, I had to agree. A nice thick piece and the breading was just right. Nice fries as well. I didn't try the beans but my husband enjoyed them. I wasn't as enamored with the meats I received. They were just ok as Q goes, lacking any smoke flavor or crunchy bits like I prefer. The sauces were delicious though and while I'm not usually much of a sauce person I enjoyed them and as a result enjoyed the meats. The slaw and collards I had were again just ok. Points for being house-made, but I adore cole slaw and this slaw is a bit dry and needs some oomph. A little Duke's and ACV would make this amazing. A nice crunch and chop is already there but I would tweak it a bit. The collards were cooked perfectly and tasty but again, ACV is needed. Maybe even just add it to the sauce mixes on the table, so folks can doctor their dishes if desired? Why a photo of the silverware you ask? I was so happy to get real silverware and heavy, substantial pieces! It elevates my experience, just me maybe. As I was grabbing a few more photos of the bistro I noticed a nice bourbon selection, and being a bourbon aficionado I had to get closer. I had a nice chat with the owner, who explained a special weekly event he does for folks to try some premium grade liquors at cost and even went on to explain that he makes most of his infusions and mixes in house. Big points for that. I only wish we didn't live over an hour away, but maybe we can get back for some cocktail events at some point. I would/will definitely return and try some other menu items. Service was great, cleanliness is clearly high on their list, and everyone was just super nice.

So maybe we just had higher expectations than we should have, but we were disappointed…read more We came in and only 1 other table was occupied so we were happy to be sat and served quickly. The server would hardly speak to me and even my husband commented that he didn't know what her issue was with me specifically. They were out of their daily special of chicken dumplings because the other table apparently ordered the last bowl so we had to pivot, which wa fine. We ordered a mozzarella stick appetizer, a bacon cheeseburger and fries, a chicken club and fries, and a regular hotdog "all the way" with fries. We also all 3 had tea. My son and I got 1 scoop of ice cream each at the end. The girl who scooped the ice cream was way over to us than our server was. The sandwiches seemed to be pretty good, the fries were good, my hot dog was the worst hotdog I've ever had. There was so much mayo (which I don't think usually comes on a hotdog all the way but each place is different) that all I could taste was the mayo and bread. The bread was hard on one side, the hot dog was tiny and over cooked to where it was tough. Our total was right at $70. We would have went to Applebees or Olive Garden if we had anticipated spending $70 on a lackluster dinner that I didn't even eat but half of and the server never even asked if everything was okay. All in all everything would have been fine if the hot dog hadn't been inedible and if the price wasn't that of a chain sit down restaurant
