    Undercurrent Restaurant Alvin -server was very good, knowledgeable of the menu and brought the bread and butter right away. Appetizer - Lobster and shrimp spring rolls was great with the shoyu reduction and the soy-ginger dipping sauce. Her is the Smoked Jerk Duck Leg was delicious recommended by Alvin. Mine is the seared sea scallops with sweet and sour green bamboo rice was a good refreshing bitterly twist. For the dessert banana pudding cheesecake was a good compliment to the dinner. Planning on trying other menu soon.

    Had an amazing and intimate dinner with my wife while visiting Greensboro at this absolute gem. Sam and Savannah took amazing care of us and made wonderful suggestions. All of our dishes were super tasty and as a Ribeye connoisseur I can say this is one of the best quality ribeyes I’ve ever had not to mention it was cooked to perfection. Had the “Manila Sun” a tequila cocktail with a vanilla rim….. absolute genius. My wife enjoyed the “Harvest Moon” a gin cocktail with basil, plum and ginger beer, she loved it, refreshing and balanced. Very well crafted wine list with a huge price range for every budget. We started with Filipino BBQ Pork Skewers and Fried Oysters yummmmm. Finished with Pecan Tart with Bulleit Bourbon Ice Cream 😊 Look forward to having their Smoked Jerk Duck Leg on our next visit.

    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.

    The Undercurrent never disappoints. The menu includes wonderful, seasonal specials, and the service is impeccable. The noise level fluctuates, depending on how crowded it gets, so we prefer going at lunch when it’s usually quieter.

    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.
