Finial Restaurant at Grandover – Premier Southern Dining & Elegant Culinary Experience in Greensboro, NC

I visited this restaurant to celebrate my dear friend’s birthday. Chef Kelvin’s food was AMAZING! It was very flavorful and the presentation was superb! He even personally came out to our tables to ensure we enjoyed...not once, but TWICE! We also, enjoyed Tiffani as our server. She was also, personable and provided excellent food recommendations. We will be back!

This restaurant provided me with one of the best dining experiences of my life. Each course was beautifully prepared and elegantly plated. The chef and staff engaged with us personally and warmly, making the experience even more welcoming. With the outstanding meals and picturesque golf courses, this is certainly a must-visit destination.

Dined here last night with my wife for her birthday. Service was great, atmosphere was great, wine list was excellent and some of the food was spectacular. My wedge salad with blue cheese came out with ranch on it, my scallops had a slight ammonia taste which means they were treated with a solution that makes them appear larger, which believe they were because I did not get sick. I should not have eaten them and sent them back. The garlic mashed potato's and mushrooms were excellent though. My wife had crab cakes with fried green tomato's to start with and she said they were the best she ever had . Then she ordered shrimp and grits and the grits were not edible. They had some kind of ham gravy that was terrible. We had dined here before a couple of years ago on New Years eve and our experience was excellent, food was incredible. This time it was not good at all, we won't be back again. I do not recommend, eat at your own risk.

First off, let me tell you about these delicious crab cake beignets. Now, I’m allergic to shellfish, but my bro spared NO crumb. Next up, a big slice of cornbread with this sweet, melt-in-your-mouth butter that had me feeling all kinds of comfortable in my chair on a cold evening. Then came the luscious lamb—ever so juicy, ever so tender. And let me not forget about that piquant pork chop—flavors were dancing in my mouth, y’all! I ended my meal with a blissful, tasty blondie that was pure heaven. Big shoutout to Executive Chef Kelvin Kornegay for providing such a warm welcome. I felt like Queen Latifah in Last Holiday with Chef Didie! Book your reservations ASAP—you won’t want to miss this! Check my video out on IG @dr_Hairston

Finial Restaurant at Grandover in Greensboro was amazing. Hand down one of the best restaurants in NC. The food, atmosphere, vibe, and overall experience 10/10. Executive Chef Kelvin Kornegay was amazing, and have a unique perspective on elevating southern classic dishes. You can taste the passion in every bite. Where most 5-star restaurant lack with generic basic, under seasoned overprice menu items, Chef Kelvin and Finial thrives with a menu full of seasoned refined flavors, personality, and innovation. Be on the lookout for him, he definitely should be up for a James Beard award if not a Michelin Star first very soon. The food was affordable and worth it. I definitely will go back. The staff was amazing and very nice. I recommend the Crab Cake Beignets, lamb chops, pork chop, and blondie brownie. Finial offers a delightful dining experience that seamlessly blends Southern-inspired cuisine with a touch of elegance. Love every moment of my experience and honestly if you read this far in my review, go ahead and make that reservation you won’t be disappointed!

Had a wonderful experience hosting a large dinner party (15). Beth and Rachel waited on our table and they were absolutely fantastic. Service was great, the food was delicious, which can be difficult when receiving a large influx of entree orders into the ktichen at the same time. I highly recommend and will absolutely return.

I had a lovely dining experience at Finial! The food was excellent and that’s coming from someone who’s super picky about salmon. Mine was cooked just right (as requested when ordering), well done just how I like it, and it was fresh without that overly seafood-y smell some places can’t avoid. I also tried the risotto, which was extremely gouda-y (in the best way!). If you're a cheese lover, it's a must try. Rich and flavorful, and the veggies mixed in really balanced it out. Our server, Hannah, was great. Attentive and did everything we asked. She seemed a little nervous approaching the table, but she still took great care of us and made sure we had everything we needed. A quick heads up for anyone with food allergies: not every single ingredient is fully listed (including oils, etc) and my mom did have a mild reaction to something in her drink. That said, the staff handled it wonderfully. The front desk had free Benadryl on hand, which was a huge bonus, and we were really grateful they were so prepared. Overall, the vibe was perfect. Elevated but comfortable and great for a special occasion. Definitely recommend and would go back! PS. You HAVE to try the cornbread!!
