Our latest visit, the third in as many months, was just as good as the first two; in fact, I'd say it was slightly better. Our server, Kelli, was supremely warm, gracious, and efficient, making us feel right at home. The food was again topnotch. My wife had the Bolognese which had an amazing amount of shaved Parmigiana Reggiano and burrata. The basil pesto was a nice touch, if bordering on overpowering the dish. I opted for the duck burger cooked medium rare which had a fig compote, red pepper hummus, and cumin seed havarti. It was juicy, perfectly cooked, and nicely contrasted with the arugula that takes the place of lettuce. The meat could have used a touch more salt, and the fig needed a contrast of mustard seed or something more acidic than the havarti. Still, it was a rousing success. GVG has an excellent wine list, offering two Sauvignon Blancs from Marlborough--most places, you're lucky to find one. They also have a Ripasso by the glass which is extremely rare to find. We left feeling welcome, satisfied, and eager to come back. Due to the retro 30s styling, consistently superb food, and a well-trained staff--again, a tip of the hat to Kelli--I highly recommend this restaurant tucked into the O. Henry Hotel.
My favorite place for lunch and dinner in Greensboro. The atmosphere is terrific as is the food and service. The menu is broad enough to allow for casual meals or celebrations. There is a large and comfortable outdoor seating area plus three different "rooms" for dining. The burger is my "go to" meal there.
