When this place first opened in my area, I was so happy. I'm a lover of chinese foods. This place had it ALL as far as I could see. Little did I know that it had WAY more than I wanted!
They display their sanitation grade against a wall that you won't notice until you've already eaten and are paying on your way out!
Being the wife of an exectutive chef and having served many years in food service, I understand fully the importance of a sanitation grade. When a restaurant falls below an A, be AWARE.
This restaurant has twice, to my knowledge been to the edge of being closed down with a B grade that was so near hitting 79, it's scary! The health department gives them a chance to change, but they are still allowed to operate. Who KNOWS what's going on in there.
After the last B, I never went back. If you MUST go into this place, DEFINITATELY look at the wall just inside the door to see what the sanitation grade is before dinning. Poor food handling can be deadly, and these people serve LOTS of seafood!
Be CAREFUL!

This fast food chinese place is absolutely incredible!
They use NO MSG, they are fast & CLEAN. Their kitchen is WIDE open when you go in. If you order and wait, you can see every move they make, while they make your order.
They are so wonderful that they remember many of their customers by delivery address! Anytime I go in, they know my order (creature of habit, I am!) and when I put in an order larger than just for me, they always include some extra egg rolls or something special just to make me know my business is appreciated!
The delivery service is wonderful too. You can know that just because you're not there, your order will be just as fresh and wonderful when they deliver it to your door!
Let them know what you want! Spicier? Milder? Every single order is made to order! Let them know and become a repeat customer and they'll know what you want before you ever order it!
This is a wonderful place to get chinese take out, the combo orders can practically be shared by two and it includes everything you want! VERY affordable, lunch or dinner and you will be truly treating yourself!
ENJOY!

Ghassan's Steak and Cheese is always being voted the Best in Greensboro and for good reason. Their Lebanese salad is served with lots of feta cheese and their unique dressing that is almost addictive. The also have great chicken and pita sandwiches. Kids will like the chicken nuggets shaped like dinosaurs. They are always friendly and the restaurant spotless.

Okay, Greenbsoro really needed soemthing new and the owners of the "N" club showed us something we did not even know we needed. My husband and I go every single Wednesday with all of our friends and we always have a good time. When I first saw the ad for the new restaraunt slah bar slash rooftop lounge, I wondered what the owners were thinking. It seemed much too Miami or LA for little old Greensboro, but they had vision. We love the food and if you go on Wednesday night all the appetizers are half off. If you are nice to Renee, the bartender she will make your drink perfectly and serve it with a smile. We have so much fun and want everyone to try it out. It is a little more upper casual in dress and you will see everyone from flirty Hooters girls to downtown workers dropping in for a drink after work.

Lucky 32's has been around for about 20 years, and the food continues to be above par! There specials change about once a month, but many items stay on the menu permanently. This is a great "date night" restaurant, but their brunch is also outstanding. Chicken and mushroom crepes are divine!

The first time I ever visited this new little restaraunt, I wondered how it would do. It is a new joint in an old place, but it seems to be thriving. We like to sit out on the patio in the afternoons, and invite all of our friends. We would order the crab dip with pita breads and sit around and chat. The manager always made it by and we always enjoyed our food. American cuisine with the famous chicken sandwhich and wings. They have kareoke some nights, oyster specials on other...so definitely try it out!

Tummy Yummy is one of the cutest little diner style places to eat that Greensboro has! It has amazing hot dogs and some of the most amazing brunswick stew you have ever eaten! The hamburgers are not good, but everything else is! Homemade desserts, pictures of Elvis, and a working jukebox are a few of the things that make Tummy Yummy so fun and different. All of the mailmen eat there when they are on lunch break, because they know that you cannot find better food for a better price anywhere! Try it out. Sit at the counter and ask for a malted milkshake and a hot dog and enjoy!

If you know me at all, you will know that I will definitely be drawn in with a half off wine promotion! Cafe Europa does this on Wednesday nights and a group of us used to go quite often. Lately though we have not been as happy with the table seating process and they stopped carrying my favorite Reisling. We still stop in once in awhile because of the beautiful patio seating, but overall it lost our complete attention. Oh and someone tell the owners that they need to add something to the sad little menu.

After church one day the family decided to try somewhere new and we all decided on Austins. Now, all of us actually deciding on one place is a miracle in itself. We were seated at one of the larger tables and we noticed that the other tables were pretty empty. So we were in for a hige shock when we got the food and it was terrific!!! Somehow this place is not getting enough advertising, because it was very good and we have been back a few time since. Try the pork chops platter with veggies and the potatoes, and the bread is very yummy. They need to spend a little on some radiio advertising or something, but otherwise it is a really good secret!

You pay 29.95 for salad bar and meat, and pay extra for drinks and dessert. The salad bar has lots of fancy food on it like fresh mozzarella, portabella mushrooms, real crumbled bacon, pearl onions, cocktail shrimp, fresh steamed vegetables, and this avocado dressing that sounds gross but tastes heavenly! (It's like Ranch with a twist...it's so great.) There is usually pasta salad and soup and some other stuff like rice but can't remember everything. You also have coasters on your table that say "Yes" or "No". When you're ready for meat, turn your coaster to "Yes" and waiters will stop by and offer you fillet mignon, garlic encrusted pork loin, bacon wrapped chicken, prime rib, lamb, sausage, and other meats. I think there are 11 or 12 different meats they offer. When you're full or working on what you already have on your plate, you turn your coaster to "NO" and they don't offer you anything. I'm not a big meat eater, but everything in the restaurant tastes delicious, and my husband could LIVE there. He thinks it's a great value for the quantity and quality of meat you get. It's ok to take kids, and reservations are recommended but not required. We usually call ahead, but MOST of the time there's not a long wait anyway.
