    Stopped in here mid morning for breakfast. Looks like we hit at the end of a breakfast rush as it was busy but clearing out. We seated ourselves at a cozy table for two. A waitress quickly brought us menus and then waters and coffee. I ordered a veggie omelet and side of hashbrowns. Husband ordered the Masterpiece. The biscuits were huge -- biggest I've ever seen. The veggies inside my omelet were very crunchy. I would have liked them cooked a bit more. There was also a piece of eggshell in them. Hashbrowns were okay. Husband said his grits were good. Service was fast and super friendly. Overall, a nice stop for breakfast while on the road.

    I had the pleasure of eating at Grayson's and for anyone in or around the Wytheville area you MUST come here. The staff were so nice and welcoming that I truly felt like I was home. Being from the Northeast I quickly learned what southern hospitality was all about. We may as well been having dinner as a family instead of strangers. Portions of food are plentiful and with great flavor. I love biscuits and gravy and I stuffed myself well. The prices are ridiculously affordable too. The best part was when I learned that a complete stranger paid for our meal. I was so shocked at how random that was. I decided to pay it forward and pay for a lovely couple who were enjoying their lunch. I truly love this place and will be back to dine at this fine restaurant.

    Fantastic food and service. We ordered the country fried steak which was amazing and you could tell the mashed potatoes were homemade. Definitely will be stopping here in the future again.

    Stopped on trip from Columbus to CLT for food and fuel. My wife found this place in downtown Wytheville for lunch.. My only request was comfort food on a cold day and an entree and 2 sides will hit the spot after a rainy long drive. It's a few miles off 77/81 which gives you the opportunity to get a break from the other busy body travelers for a meal. The place is quaint and welcoming. I ordered the hamburger steak with mash potatoes and fried squash. My wife got the club sandwich, my daughters got grilled ham & cheese and a chicken sandwich and my son decided to try the Rueben. Waiting while we watch PSU vs. Ole Miss in the Peach Bowl...... Good place if you're passing through. Ate a good meal, met some welcoming locals and got a veterans discount. Back on the road with a full belly and gas in 42 minutes. I highly recommend Graysons for a hot meal on a cold day.

    Just in town for the night and ate here based on reviews. We got fish sandwich, onion rings, pork chops, salad, green beans, German chocolate cake. Onion rings, salad (especially homemade ranch dressing) and green beans were excellent, Fish sandwich and pork chops just ok. Pork chops were dry and chewy. Service was excellent and it's a cute little restaurant. The only homemade desserts are German chocolate cake and banana pudding.

    My wife and I were visiting relatives near Wytheville and decided to try Grayson mainly because of the Yelp reviews. Long day with a flight from Tampa to Charlotte and drive across the mountains so we were ready for dinner. This place did not disappoint. Small town feel, friendly, comfy. Our waitress, Scarlett, yes named after the Gone With the Wind character, was terrific. Think of Speedy Gonzales in jeans with a warm Southern disposition. If we were the only table, her constant attention was great, but she never slowed down one iota when there were six tables to serve. My wife was in the mood for eggs so ordered a Western omelette. I opted for the Country Fried Steak with pepper gravy. New to the menu was fried green tomatoes - yes please, along with fried squash and cornbread. Iced tea came quickly and was superb. Very quickly also our meals came. My wife's omelette was wonderful and since she didn't want bread, she opted for another cornbread muffin for me. Couldn't wait to dig into tomatoes, I had to quarter them because they were piping hot. Same with the squash. Interesting that the squash was batter dipped but the tomatoes were coated in cornmeal. Both were delicious. Almost forgot the Country Fried Steak as I enjoyed the other delights. My wife also sampled the squash & tomatoes, and she agreed they were wonderful. The steak was covered in white pepper gravy and was so tender I cut it with my fork. It didn't shine as bright after the great veggies but was very good, especially paired with the cornbread muffin with a hint of sweetness. And sending my satisfaction, my wife tasted the second muffin and then took half. The homemade apple pie covered with what looked like a pint of vanilla ice cream was great but a bit much for me. I did get a cup of tea to go. On the way out a gentleman noticed my Vietnam service hat and talked with us a bit. He just lost his father, who was also a Vietnam vet. Check it out. You won't be disappointed!
