Famous Toastery - Winston-Salem

The breakfast at this restaurant was really good, with delicious food as shown in the pictures. However, I was disappointed by the lack of attentive service. When we requested ketchup and a chocolate milk for our 3-year-old, our waitress never returned, and we had to ask someone else for help. Additionally, it was a windy day and we had to eat outside along with other families with small children. Two parasols flew off the tables, one landing in the parking lot and the other dangerously close to our table. Thankfully, no one was hurt, but it was a frightening experience. The staff quickly retrieved the parasols, but it highlighted the need for more employees to assist during such situations. Despite requesting sugar-free syrup, I was given pure honey instead. Although I suspected something was off, I didn't mention it. It was only at the end of the meal when I was asked if the syrup tasted like honey that it was revealed the honey had been mistakenly mixed with the sugar-free syrup. As a prediabetic, this oversight was concerning. I hope the restaurant addresses these issues promptly for the safety and satisfaction of their patrons.

The service was fast, my waitress was very attentive. The food is quite expensive a give generous portions. The weather was nice not to sit outside on the terrace and enjoy a small view of the art district. Would definitely be too cold again.

Vegan options available. I could change the vegetarian options to make them vegan. If you are not careful and do not read carefully, they would assume that all Plant Based V mean beside objects that the dishes are vegan if in fact the majority of them are vegetarian. I ordered a page of breakfast potatoes minus butter and sauteed vegetables to the top.

I’m always looking for a good Shrimp and Grits dish. They definitely didn’t hit the nail on the head with this one. Not something I would order from there again. The service was great! All the workers were attentive to my friends and I. If I could have tipped them all I would have.

I like the location, i like their setup and how they have plenty of space for parking. Which most places downtown have barely any parking. Now let’s get to the food, the gravy biscuits were good with the country Benedict I ordered. The potatoes that came with it were not warm though which was kind of a bummer, but still tasted good. The Orange juice tasted like tang or powdered juice so I don’t know what’s up with that. And their breakfast burrito was not tasty at all but soggy. We’re gonna give this place a 2nd at some point, probably for lunch. Just felt like their breakfast for early Sunday was not on point, maybe the staff was still waking up since we were there at 0730 am.
