THE HONEY POT

My fiancé and I were in town visiting friends and family for the holiday. We took our close friends out to dinner for a New Years celebration Saturday night. The second we walked in the door we were greeted with wonderful service, great beverages, amazing food and an awesome atmosphere.

Our table was ready as soon as we walked in. We were able to check our coats when we got to the table. We were offered pre meal cocktails while waiting on our friends. I got an amazing whiskey drink with a lime twist. It was delicious.

We were given ample time to review the menu with instructions explaining the best way to order by putting all of our dishes in at once. I appreciate the instructions by the way, leaving things unspoken often leads to confusion and poor experiences.

We ordered our meals with the wine pairing. Each dish came with a separate, well thought out pairing of wine. I was pleasantly surprised to find wines I would normally not order being poured. Regardless of my previous experience with the wine, I enjoyed every sip paired with my plate.

Our server provided excellent service. The manager did a wonderful job explaining each wine and it's pairing. And the meal timing was perfect. We felt like we were eating at a five star back home in DC.

We will come back next time we are in town.

This is the perfect restaurant for enjoying fresh, local fare cooked exquisitely. The quality and diversity of flavors in the the small dish and two large dishes my wife and I shared were outstanding. We left highly satisfied and look forward to our next visit.

Great food! The snack plate was a phenomenal shareable, and the pickle bowl was delicious. The only thing that made the meal better than the food and my companion was our waiter. Maxwell (I think) was quick, professional, accommodating, and hilarious. If you go there, ask to be in his section!

One of the best dining experiences in Winston Salem. Modern menu with sensible portions. All dishes from starters to desserts were beautifully plated and delicious. Servers were attentive. Cost was higher end for Winston Salem, but our family thought it was worth it. We are definitely returning.

I was totally impressed with the menu. My son and his wife took us there for my birthday and I ordered the vegetable plate. Whoa! It was divine! We tried once more to go one evening but it looked as if it was closed. Not sure what days it is open but I intend to find out. By the way everyone loved their meal. Very creative chef!
