Carl 'chelle 's Grill Room - Goldsboro

I was disappointed with both the quality of the food and the service at this restaurant. Although it was marketed as upscale, it fell short of those expectations.

We visited the restaurant on Wednesday, November 8th, to celebrate my son's birthday. Unfortunately, the steaks were only average. Given the price, I expected a bread basket, but we were only served a piece of grilled Texas toast. The salad bar left much to be desired, offering limited choices in cheap plastic bowls. Our waitress was not very attentive and seemed disinterested in providing good service. Instead of a traditional server, a young man in casual clothing took our order through an iPad, which felt a bit odd. The overall ambiance was uninviting, with high tables and harsh lighting, while the décor included tacky animal print curtains and melted votive candles. To make matters worse, they only provided paper napkins. I can’t recommend this restaurant unless you’re staying at the nearby Motel 6. Also, be cautious of a random dog wandering around the parking lot, as it’s not something you usually encounter at a restaurant.

The restaurant consistently provides an exceptional dining experience with delectable food. We dined there for dinner, and the cost per person was between $30 and $50. The food, service, and ambiance all received a top rating of 5 out of 5. I highly recommend trying the Ribeye Steak with Mashed Potatoes and the Salad Bar. Additionally, there's ample parking available, including a free parking lot option.

Lunch is served at this restaurant, with prices ranging from $10 to $20 per person. The food and service both scored a 4 out of 5, while the atmosphere received a perfect 5 rating. One highly recommended dish is the Grilled Bread.

The pork chops were mediocre, but the server who assisted me that evening was exceptionally friendly and attentive. I dined in for a dinner meal, with prices ranging from $20 to $30 per person. The food received a rating of 3, the service a 5, and the atmosphere a 4.
