    We first ate at Undercurrent June 2024. We stayed at the incredible Julian Price House and had checked out to catch train back to Raleigh. The Taxi Driver took us to the wrong Restaurant and left before we realized we were in wrong place. We had 2 suitcases, but walked to the Undercurrent in a light mist rather than try to get another Taxi or Uber. When we arrived at Undercurrent they were full. When he heard our story the Owner went out of his way to accomodate us, he took our suitcases and put them away and made space for us on a very busy Sunday Brunch Day. Because of his kindness, we made plans to eat at his Restaurant Dec. 13, 14 and 15. Every meal was delightful, the service was great (Scot was our Server Fri/Sat night) and the only downside is that we live in Raleigh and do not plan to return to Greensboro in the near future. Highly recommend this beautiful place for the food, atmosphere and service.

    Every thing we ordered was cooked to perfection. Our waitress was great, with a personality. We celebrated 2 birthdays and the desserts were to die for.

    Our lunch today was so delicious and our server, Scott Townsend, was great. From the moment we walked in and were shown to our table by the host, the day was wonderful. We had a delightful time and can't wait to return soon.

    Tuesday night is probably a good night to go out to dinner, because there are fewer diners and you get a lot of attention. At The Undercurrent, my husband always loves the rack of lamb and I enjoy the salmon.

    Very nice restaurant walking distance to Tanger Center. Food is well presented but falls short of that expected of top tier quality. This visit I had the chicken breast. The casserole and compote were quite good but the chicken breast was thin and dry. I'd have rather paid a few $$ more to get a thicker and juicier piece. Nice ambiance, our server was excellent, but Undercurrent needs to improve their food consistency/quality to get to 5 star quality.

    Salmon was good but potatoes needed to be cooked more. I would also change the bread to maybe a sourdough roll or slice. Trout was very good but the resoto was a little to sticky.

    The service and food was good, they accommodated my husband’s allergies. However we were there to celebrate our anniversary which was known and they set us in a corner table with really no view and I was somewhat disappointed that even though the wait staff said Happy Anniversary that there was no “pizzazz” We have celebrated many times at upscale restaurants and they have always had something on the table for our celebration
