The staff was excellent! Our first set of drinks were great, but they certainly were not consistent as in tasting the same - I guess it depends on who made the drinks. Food was typical frozen bar food heated up with small portions. Decent atmosphere with a small bar area & large dining room. More

A very good local restaurant with outstanding service. We have tried many menu items there and all have been very good with the exception of one dish. The steak/beef tips was a disappointment. They were dry and overcooked. That being said, we will continue to frequent this establishment. More

Food was good. Their mashed potatoes and grilled chops are cooked nicely. But if you’re not into a bar don’t go at night as it might be a bit loud which is understandable because it is a bar during the night More

Food is always good, once you get it. Depending on the evening service canne a bit delayed but I think staff is trying their best. Be aware of the patio, there are sometimes a lot of smokers.

Aversboro is a wonderful spot that’s tucked away in Garner.
I’ve been coming here for five years and never had a bad meal. Homers chicken salad is great! The Ruben is outstanding!! If you’re a sucker for a club sandwich, don’t say no to this one!
If you wanna have some fun with Monika, ask which fries she recommends(straight or crinkle cut) and then order the opposite! ;)
Wonderful staff and great place to eat, and drink!

Whatever you do, do not ever order takeout from this restaurant. They do not want your business. The only way they will serve you and respect you is if you show up, which is debatable based off of reviews. Probably want you to buy drinks … More

Food was exceptionally good for bar food, I got the steak philly with their signature sauce and jalapeños. It was super cheesy! The bartenders were attentive even to seats outside the bar and very friendly. They had live music the night we went, but do different events many nights to keep it interesting! More

It is mainly a bar with high tables and an area that's about 10x5 for a live band stage. Also had an outdoor patio area. It's small and I think the atmosphere is great for a bar. The people there look like "regulars" but staff was very … More

A little gem of Garner, hidden if you don’t look for it. We’ve been coming here, albeit infrequently, since around 2015. For bar food, it’s pretty yummy and fresh, not frozen like other places. From the Reuben to the BLT to the house made … More
