  • I was looking forward to trying Smalls thanks to all the positive reviews here on Yelp. Unfortunately, I came away a bit disappointed. First off this dinner was with the dinner group. Two days prior, I had called during their normal business hours to make a reservation. It was an hour before they closed and I had to leave a message in their voice mail and beep....my message was too long to get all the information in. I called back the next day again during their business hours and received the voice mail so I was getting concerned that maybe they had actually closed or something. Called back a couple hours later and finally got a real live person. Gave them all the info about the group and they didn't think there would be a problem even though they said they had another group coming in. But upon arrival, they didn't seem to know anything about our reservation but were determined to accommodate us. They put us in the middle of the restaurant across from the bar. The draft beer selections here were all from NC breweries which is one of the things that drew me in here. And the Greenman IPA that I had 3 of was a real winner so 5 stars for the beer selections! The menu is simple and the options are inexpensive. You have your choice of small plates and several varieties of sliders, a few salads, a soup of the day and then there's the large plates. I opted for the Crispy Chicken which consisted of fried chicken with a chili honey sauce and an herbed batter waffle. The waffle didn't do anything for me. I found it rather tasteless. The chicken and honey sauce was wonderful. The chicken was tender and juicy. Unfortunately it also stuck with me for a day. Service wise, our server was excellent despite the challenges we heard about throughout the night. The bartender apparently called in and all the servers had to cover. This included a crash of glasses during the night. And then later on, the computer died so it took a while for the checks to arrive. But she still served with a smile even though we think she was about to break down. What we saw is that the smaller groups seemed to get better service than our table. There were little things like orders not being correct. The person who ordered last..like 5 minutes after everyone else, received their food first and I heard things like the crab cake sliders were dry and needed some sort of sauce. That sauce arrived later in the meal. It's really a nice place and the staff and patrons were all friendly. But perhaps we just hit Smalls on a bad night. I am willing to give them another shot.
