A friend and I recently visited this place for lunch. The first thing that really struck me was the size of the menu. They have a large menu already, and the lunch specials insert provided even more options at great prices. Most entrees were $10 or less, and came with two sides, which was presented as a list with over twenty items to choose from. I got the chicken tenders (grilled, not fried), and sides of mac and cheese and potato salad. The waitress brought me a large cup of bbq sauce at my request. I loved the mac and cheese, and the chicken was very good as well! I didn’t love the potato salad, but when I go back, I have twenty more sides to choose from. I definitely hope to return for lunch relatively soon, as some of the other menu items made my mouth water as well.

Been here several times since they opened. Been pleased each time. Love the vegetarian options! The staff messed up my sons order twice the last time we were there but they corrected the mistake and satisfied our experience. Only bad thing is that meals do not come with side which adds to the cost of the meal. Will visit this restaurant again. Great selections of on tap beers and ciders.

The String Bean

Located in Historic Downtown Belmont, our building is right on main street. We have our very own parking, conveniently located right beside our newly renovated, large outdoor patio. Just keep an eye out for The String Bean 'green' shade sails.

This was a nice place in the quaint town of Belmont. We had to wait a bit to get seated and waited for various things but the food was very good. It was just a nice time to sit and visit since we had a little time of waiting. But I’d go again. The food was yummy and TVs wait staff was nice. You could sit inside or out.

Had read something about this relatively new eatery. Was delicious. Lana, the server had I try a couple of their items. Delicious. The chicken salad wrap was very tasty. Corn chowder and chilly will be ordered again. Many good choices. Encourage you to go and try it. You won’t be disappointed!

Reviewed By Ed R

My wife and I tried Vasileio's for the first time. We were pleasantly surprised. Doesn't look like much from the outside but inside is a clean, warm family restaurant. I ordered manicotti; she, the flounder. Both dishes were very good as were the accompanying salads and breadsticks. Good, prompt service and very reasonable prices. We would definitely go back.PS. Didn't see any alcohol on the menu.

Lowesville Cafe

Reviewed By I8796GBbruceb

Busy and chatty customers at breakfast a sure sign of good food at great value! Usually around $20 elsewhere but same good eats for $15. Fresh biscuits and gravy, over easy eggs and 1" diameter sausage links really satisfy. Definitely a breakfast favorite. By the way, an outside table allows your favorite pet a place while waiting for your order, to sit or to go.

First of all we love this restaurant. We have eaten here many times since moving to North Carolina a year-and-a-half ago. Anytime we go we split this desert. It is a fried honey croissant with vanilla ice cream and strawberries with whipped cream. It is to die for. One of our top five desserts of all time. If you go you must try one
