Restaurant 101

Headed to Boone soon but we decided to grab a quick lunch at 101.Greeted promptly by the hostess as always. They have the friendliest people here. A nice "buzz" in the dining area for the customers. 101 has become our "go to" place to eat in Mocksville. I ordered the French dip with chips. Father In law got the grilled chicken sandwich and my youngest daughter got the buffalo chicken wrap. My French dip wasn't as warm as I would have liked. It was good, not great. FIL loved his sandwich and sweet potato fries. Daughter loved her buffalo chicken wrap. 101 is consistent in their food preparation, although, in this case, the French dip could have been better. 101 is 100% the best restaurant in Mocksville. It's not even close. Good food, good service and a good atmosphere. Triple play!

Anyone local to Mocksville will agree that Restaurant 101 is a staple. They are always dependable when you want a good meal and quick service. They keep their specials updated and are always introducing something new and exciting. Everything I've tried has tasted great and left me satisfied. The fried pickles are SO crispy and of course, paired with awesome ranch. Their outdoor eating area is a nice touch as well!

Stopped in here to have lunch with my sister and her family during a soccer tournament break. We arrived around 12 pm and with a total of 13 people in our party were seated within 15 mins. They seated us in a large room in the back. The only con of the visit was the room was extremely cool (63 degrees). We asked about the fire place but the young gentleman didn't really know how to start it. I ordered the crab cake with a side salad. It was delicious. The crab ratio was pretty good too. My hubs ordered the Philly cheesesteak sub with chips and he said it was a very good sub. Everyone at the table said their food was good and our server Brianna was so pleasant and did a great job of making sure we had everything we needed. For 6 people the bill was $90.69 not including tip. With the large party they added an automatic gratuity. The area around the restaurant is so cute with a coffee shop, a couple of boutiques, a yoga studio and several other quaint places to visit. We will definitely be back if we are in the area.

We stopped in while traveling through Mocksville this afternoon. We had been on Main Street over the summer and noticed the restaurant and bookmarked it at that time. Today we were headed to Concord and decided to stop in. We arrived about noon and were able to find street parking with no problem. This portion of town is historic and very charming. The restaurant is no exception, the brick exterior looks to be well maintained and cared for. We stepped inside and were immediately impressed. On the left is a full bar with counter seating, to the right is the restaurant area. We checked in with a hostess and were immediately seated and provided menus. Our server, Megan stopped in and took our drink orders. We also inquired about the menu and she told us her favorites along with the most popular offerings. The menu was larger than we expected and features appetizers, salads, entrees, sandwiches/wraps, burgers and more. My wife ordered the salmon entree with extra grilled veggies instead of rice and a side salad. I chose the chicken parmesan with fried chicken and a side salad. Our salads arrived quickly and looked better than the average side salad. We both enjoyed and our entrees arrived quickly. Megan was very friendly and attentive and kept checking on us. My wife really enjoyed her meal and I liked chicken parmesan, I just didn't love the chunkiness of the sauce. The building is very cool both inside and out. There is a spiral staircase in the dining area leading up to the second floor. We love the exposed brick and wood floors. We asked our server about the history and she said it was a furniture store at one point and currently has apartments upstairs. My wife reported the restroom was very clean and well maintained. We also noted their health score, we believe from memory it was 98.5.A great stop and we would absolutely recommend to others. There is a small antique store next door and a coffee shop across the street as well.

Update to my review-Still the best restaurant we have had in Mocksville. My favorites I've tried over the past year:Ribs (greatest ever)Crab dipBuffalo dipSide salad with ranchSweet potato fries (just wish they had cinnamon sugar on them)Homemade chipsI also tried their house margarita last night and was plenty surprised at how excellent that was. Service is always great when we go, and we still love the vibe.

My husband and I tried this restaurant today for our anniversary. This place is a little gem. Highly recommend eating here. Unique older refurbished building dating back to 1905. We had fried zucchini to start and all i can say is yum. Owner talked to us and takes pride in her business. Wide variety menu. We had steaks and were not disappointed. My husband got the filet and said it's the best one he's had. Loved the homemade chips. Overall would rate this a 9 out of 10 I rarely would ever give a ten but this one comes close

Second time round ! Much better experience. Food and service were much better, Prosecco was actually really bubbly!! We sat outside in a nice February day but needed a little heat but they were out of propane they said . We had the crab dip and hot chips for apps and both were excellent . The chips were so crunchy and not greasy at all. The crab dip nice and creamy and the hot pita excellent . My friends salmon salad was so pretty and plentiful for lunch the next day and the shrimp salad was the same. They have great sauces for their proteins even in a salad . Vast variety of dressings too. I had the grilled chicken on black beans and rice which comes with queso but I opted for none. Nicely seasoned chicken and lots of it. The beans and rice were really flavorful and I could have eaten just that by itself. Really good. Server was attentive and checked by several times. Nice and easy dinner at a localPlace I wasn't overly impressed with first time around. So glad I came back to try it again.

I came in to meet some people around noon and I was surprised at how busy it was. Even with the amount of customers inside, it appeared that newly arriving guests were being seated immediately. The waitress quickly came over and took my order, the special for the day, steak tacos with a side of fries. The food took an average amount of time to come out. Everything was hot, and it looked and smelled great. The fries were very crispy and didn't need any sauces, which I normally go for. The tacos themselves came with onion and cilantro on it and salsa on the side. I poured the salsa over the tacos and it was the perfect match. Salsa had great flavor and even a little kick to it. I like things spicy so I got some extra Buffalo on the side to pour on. Of everything I've ordered at 101 over the years, this was definitely my favorite dish and I'd absolutely order it again. The check kind of took a while to come out, but once we got it and paid they were quick to return. 101 is a staple for Mocksville that I hope is around for a long time!

Good service, large portions and tasty food, a great combination. We stopped in to Restaurant 101 on our way to our granddaughter's gymnastics competition and we are glad we did.

Great find! Looking for a local restaurant as we traveled and ate here based on reviews. Excellent!
