Restaurants near Dr. A. B. Nobles House and McKendree Church

I recently had lunch at Encore, and I can confidently say it was an unforgettable experience. The food was absolutely amazing—each dish was crafted with precision and bursting with flavor. From the appetizers to the dessert, every bite was a delight!

Wonderful food, acceptable service, if you are young and can hear delightful energetic atmosphere if you are older and can't hear you have to look around to enjoy because I can't hear and understand.

The Colossal shrimp appetizer was wonderful. The filet was done to perfection and the mashed Yukon potatoes was great as was asparagus. The bread was cut up in large pieces and served with tasty olive oil and a balsamic syrup. It was perfect. Dessert, an espresso crème brûlée was divine. Even the drinks were tasty! One of the owners came by to speak to us which is always nice. The waitress, Heaven, was fantastic. She paid us just the right amount of attentiveness without hovering, The only ‘disappointment’ I’d say was that the head chef meandered throughout the restaurant and spoke with guests but looked at our table(only 2 of us) and yet never approached our table as he had done with basically every other table. Thought that was kind of odd. But nevertheless I can’t wait to go back!!! Thrilled that Rocky Mount has this lovely restaurant with great food, great service and it’s open Mon- Sat. (for dinner only). EB

Today was my wife’s birthday and On the Square was the perfect place to celebrate with our friends. The food was excellent and Paige, our server, was excellent. She gave us excellent suggestions and was on point! Thanks for a wonderful evening.

Excellent service and excellent food, especially the “large” raw oysters. Amber was very helpful as usual.
