BLT w/ fries (this is 1/2 of my sandwich w/ my friend's other half bc I had scarfed mine down before even thought to take a pic!)
Stephanie F.

This place was recommended to me by a friend and it was SPOT ON! The service was impeccable. The waitstaff was friendly and attentive. You feel like you're having lunch at a friend's house from the moment you walk to the moment you get up to leave. We all had a BLT with fries. Food came out quickly. Every inch of every piece of bacon was crispy, peppery, and simply delightful. Yummy summer tomato. The buttered and toasted bread was exceptionally tasty. The French fries were crispy and well seasoned. 1/2 and 1/2 tea was fresh and the perfect ratio of sweet to unsweet. We sat outside because I had my dog in tow. The waitstaff brought her a water bowl and even offered her a piece of turkey. She was in love in! We were comfortable sitting out there with the fans for a breeze and the curtains for shade. This place is a gem. 11 out of 10 recommend! Will be back.

It was busy on a Sunday, but we were a on the later side of the church crowd and didn't have to wait for a table. Again, breakfast food is one of my love languages and it whispered sweet nothings to me that afternoon as well. My husband and I each ordered something different and we're not upset about it. He even added a side of biscuits and gravy because truly - how can you choose!? It was a pretty restaurant with a large bar that I'm sure would be busy later in the days and a great outdoor section with plenty of shade. We talked about taking the kids back soon, it was so worth the drive from Winston!

We also ordered the fried chicken breast and a couple of steaks, and everyone absolutely loved their meal. Our friends recently moved to Elkin, and one of them is gluten-free, so we were especially happy to see that they have some wonderful gluten-free options. Everything from the food to the service was awesome. Southern on Main is a great place for a nice dinner out, and we will definitely be back!

Suggestions from friends and top recommendation for brunch in Yelp top rated lists of brunches in the Triad. Located in the corner of 4th ST in downtown Winston Salem. You can easily pass it. We were lucky to be able to find street parking cause its usually busy here. Staff greeted us once we stepped in,seated us and took our order right away. We went around 1 in the afternoon on a weekday. There is indoor and outdoor tables. I ordered the weekly limited special of the week;avocado toasts with pork belly bits,dried cranberries,brie,greens and topped with overeasy eggs( the most creative avocado toasts Ive tasted in the triad area). It is sooo savory and delicous. Hearty brunch leaving your stomach full but light. We all ordered something and shared. Everything came out quick,hot and delicous. I will have to add this to my favorite top 10 brunch places in the triad. The quality, price and portion of the items are of great value.

IF IT COMES, I MAY AMEND THE REVIEW] Don't Let My Mistake Become Your Mistake I rarely write negative reviews, but this was the worst hotel experience I've ever had. The HVAC system at this property is apparently old and, according to staff, frequently malfunctions. Unfortunately, I learned that firsthand when the air conditioning failed on the hottest day of the year--July 4th. After a long flight and drive from Charlotte Airport, I arrived expecting a comfortable night's rest. Instead, I spent a sleepless night in a sweltering room. To the hotel's credit, staff offered me a replacement room, but what was supposed to be an upgrade was just as hot as the standard room I had originally booked. At that point, there was no meaningful solution to the problem. What made the situation even worse was the hotel's billing policy. Unlike most hotels that charge you after your stay, this property charged my credit card in advance. That's particularly bad news when the hotel cannot provide the basic service you're paying for: a room with working air conditioning. With no realistic option but to leave, I checked out early on July 4th, forfeiting the second night of my reservation. Yet the front desk staff informed me they were not authorized to refund the unused night, despite already having charged my card. I was told that only the manager, Mr. Aaron Simerlink, could approve the refund--and that he works only Monday through Friday. Think about that for a moment. The hotel could charge my credit card immediately, but the employees standing in front of me supposedly lacked the authority to return money for a night I would not be using because the room was uninhabitable. Why should a guest have to spend a holiday weekend chasing down a manager to obtain a fair refund? Adding insult to injury was the customer service that followed. Mr. Simerlink initially avoided taking my call, and when I finally did speak with him after the front desk returned to him a second time, he ended the conversation by hanging up on me. That is not how a reputable hotel treats a guest who experienced a major service failure. Ironically, when I checked out, the front desk had mistakenly billed me for the room "upgrade." Somehow, they were able to correct that charge without Mr. Simerlink's intervention, yet they remained powerless to refund the unused night. The inconsistency speaks for itself. I eventually noticed that the unused night's charge had been refunded. That was the right outcome, but it should never have been a struggle to get there. A reputable operator would have shown genuine concern for a guest who endured a sleepless night in extreme heat. The response should have been immediate, apologetic, and customer-focused--not reluctant, dismissive, and adversarial. My advice is simple: don't do it. If you're considering staying here, remember that when things go wrong, how management responds matters just as much as the problem itself. Based on my experience, you deserve better. Listen to what I'm telling you. Don't let my mistake become your mistake. You deserve better than this
