   When you're paying premium prices, you expect top-notch quality. My filet mignonettes were supposed to be medium rare but arrived well done. That said, the flavor was fantastic—if they'd been cooked right, they would've been exceptional. The ravioli I ordered was good, and my wife’s salmon was cooked perfectly. However, the sides were disappointing—the three thin slivers of carrots were undercooked and felt like a joke. Portion sizes overall left a lot to be desired. For the price, the experience fell short of expectations.

   We have enjoyed eating at Graylyn the three times we have stayed there. The food and service are always top-notch, and the ambiance is wonderful. We can't wait to return.

   I hate writing this one as we stayed at GRAYLYN and loved every minute of the stay and the accomodations but the dining room was a substantial dissapointment. If we went back we would not eat there. Service was fine but food and presentation was below average for price. Dishes were cooked to proper temp but sides were cold or undercooked. Sauces on dishes seemed off (like they had been sittng for a long time) and we shared GF choc torte for desert and it seemed almost stale/dry and was literally 3 bites. The basement GRILLE however was a wonderful stop for a cocktail and the food being served in there looked delicious. I am not sure if because there were so many events the night we ate in dining room if effected quality. I should also mention breakfast in the dining room was a MUCH better experience. NOTE: 22% service charge added to your check so make sure to keep an eye out for that, we almost added tip.

   Dinner at Graylyn? The setting is beautiful and stately, the service is very attentive, the food is well presented (ie, food art), and the entrees were delicious. Now for the constructive criticism: the entree options on the menu are limited, and the portions of the entrees, while delicious, are small for almost $50 each. And, the room volume is not energetic, it's LOUD! What Open Table also doesn't tell you is that Graylyn charges a 22% service charge, which is non-negotiable, with the option of an additional amount for the waiter's tip. So, overall, delicious entrees, but a loud and not the more-intimate setting that we have experienced in another room there in the past. For the prices at Graylyn, one can have a larger delicious dinner with h'orderves and a desert at Jeffrey Adams on Fourth, or at the Cardinal hotel. or other fine dining sites in Winston-Salem.

   It was a little chilly on the porch. Service was great and very accommodating Small plate of scallops was very small, server should have told us it wouldn’t be enough for a meal…Turkey sandwiches were great but a little soggy. Besutiful venue

   The food was mediocre at best. The kicker is the 22% Service Charge they add regardless of how many people are dining. We wont be back.

   Such a great experience! Beautiful place, meticulously maintained, friendly staff, delicious food and much more quaint than a typical classy dining joint. Almost like jumping though a time portal and dining at the palace of the Duke of Salem. Be sure to wander the first 2 floors and soak it all in. Upper floors are reserved for hotel guests only. Enjoy!
