Just looking for some opinions on a good place to eat in greensboro, for an aniversary.....not too pricey, but not too cheap, just an overall nice place to sit down and eat for a special occasion.....any thoughts?

Ganache is pretty nice. Grandover is also really nice.

12/2/2006 12:38:14 AM

i like backstreets. could just be cause its close and i need to get out more, who knows. i just dont know how i feel about it for an occasion.

its got this kinda dim.. leather and brick thing going on. it gets crazy on the weekends but thats mainly downstairs in the bar. they have this really cool wine cellar dining room too, but i think thats reservation only.

hard to explain, you'd have to go look at it to see what i mean, but its definitely worth checking out - even if its not worthy of an anniversary dinner or whatever. they are open for lunch during the week, maybe grab a couple friends and check it out for lunch and see.

menu is "american" - most common price is like 10-15 bucks. there are much nicer places, and much shittier places.

gate city chop house

12/2/2006 1:09:29 AM

Natty Greens aint too bad, and prices are more than reasonable

12/2/2006 1:18:42 AM

Green Valley Grill is really nice. Anton's is good as well if you like italian.

12/2/2006 2:02:52 AM

theres a place called Mendy's near the arena

best swordfish in the city

mention my name

12/2/2006 2:13:47 AM

no way you wanna go to natty greenes on your aniversary. i dont like going ever, cause that place is a douche closet -- so maybe i'm biased, but i really think thats not a good idea

im not big on italian, but a lot of people do talk about antons.

is green valley grill the one with the really high ceiling? i would agree with that one, but the prices might be higer than you want

I'm generally not a huge fan of Italian food either, but we went to this place called Bravo! in the new shopping center past Friendly Shopping Center...not sure what that area is called, but it reminded me of Southpointe on a much smaller scale

it's not terribly expensive, but seemed like it may could have been (my friends and I had to check the menu's prices before we sat down )

anyone heard of ciao's

its like an italian place...is it good?

12/2/2006 2:44:17 AM

I think Antons was over rated last time I went. Gbo just got PF's, Red Oak has a nice menu, Wasabi's on Market. Depends how far you want to go $$ wise.

12/2/2006 5:52:13 AM

^^^^It's in the O Henry hotel, and I think it does have high ceilings. Its been years since I've been there. Yes you will probably be spending about 30-35 if you just get an entree and a tea or soda.

and hempster is just saying green vallery cause hes a pothead douche puddle

gate city isnt that bad either but its a clone of the one in raleigh

12/2/2006 9:25:39 PM

green valley grill is decent.

i'd say southern lights if you like gourmet southern cusine.

ganache if you like decent food and nice deserts.

anton's is just crap. damn.

the last time i ate at gate city, it was blah. they've really gone downhill.

never eat at pastabilities. it's stupid.

red oak is actually decent and i like their beer. plus the brewery is finally under construction on I-40.

12/2/2006 10:34:47 PM

i didnt know anyone used i40, this is the only town with an interstate that no one in town uses

12/2/2006 10:48:18 PM

i try not to.

12/2/2006 10:54:17 PM

Wendover is like a makeshift beltline

12/2/2006 11:01:36 PM

one of my favorite places is richey's but it's not nice enough for an anniversary

12/2/2006 11:43:52 PM

besides family and friends, red oak is the #1 thing i miss about greensboro

12/2/2006 11:48:20 PM

berts seafood. 20-30 per plate. well worth the money.

12/3/2006 12:09:29 AM

i haven't been to anton's in years as well. It was good when I went there. I guess not so much now. I am a Greensboro area native.

12/3/2006 12:13:46 AM

sounds like youre a native of NW side

12/3/2006 12:16:29 AM

berts seafood on market is pretty damn good.

decent espresso too.

12/3/2006 12:20:25 AM

^^yes I am. I'm technically from Oak Ridge. I went to HS at NW.

12/3/2006 12:23:05 AM

Village Tavern or Giovanni's

12/3/2006 12:12:58 PM

Giovanni's inside looks like a tacky 80s rock video.

12/4/2006 11:36:49 PM

richys is now the green burro...havent been, but if its the same menu then it is good

supposedly the olive garden on high point road is the busiest in the country... must be something going on there

there's a place thats in gso and high point thats supposed to be off the chain, but i cant remember the name off hand

seems like it may have something to do with a number or a tree, but i dont know

12/5/2006 1:47:53 PM

RED OAK BREWERY

So the food isn't very good and it's in a brewery. THE BEER IS FABULOUS

12/5/2006 9:55:49 PM

Laddie and Duke's is popular as well

12/5/2006 11:12:22 PM

Doss's In Kernersville - a good footlong will get her in the mood

Leblon (Brazilian Steakhouse) on Market. $30 for Salad and all the meat you can eat (not buffet style) desserts and drinks extra

12/6/2006 1:50:18 PM

Bianca's close to UNCG. Italian, family owned. classy but not overdone. small intimate place.
