The Scene – A bright yellow peace sign greets guests at the house where chef-owner Bill Greenwood creates his always-in-season dishes. Greenwood's decor, which ranges from Elvis memorabilia to framed Grateful Dead posters, will make both Southern grandmas and Berkeley hippies feel at home. Service is energetic, if, at times, harried. Plan to wait before being seated. – – The Food – Fresh, innovative fare rules the deceptively simple meat-and-three menu. Sweet, tangy fried chicken dipped in a crunchy honey-pepper batter is cooked to order and worth the 30-minute wait.…

NOT ECO-FRIENDLY
by ecofireball
They advertise how they have gone green but they dont recycle or even compost. Normally I would not care but they say they are a leader in going green.
- Pros: none
- Cons: anti green

Haven't been here in awhile cuz we moved--but now that I saw it online--I am going next week, I miss it so much. Everything is good , but way to big of portions so you should really share an entree and all the fixins with a friend or plan on taking left overs. Service always excellent. Somtimes long wait but sit and chill in the country ambience.
- Pros: food, parking
- Cons: wait time

Great food
by Parkwood
Don't forget Greenwood's simply because it's a long-lived restaurant. Bill is there everyday with his welcoming smile and fine attention to quality and service. The prices and quality are especially important in this economic time when entertainment monies are really budgeted. I like that Greenwood's is open for lunch everyday so that I can dine whenever I want and not be tied into any closing time (and still have plenty to take home in a "doggy bag" to have a light supper). Even though I'm a bulgur wheat/yogurt kind of person, the freshly ground hamburger which fills the homemade sourdough roll with all the trimmings AND a vegetable side or the tasty fried catfish fillets with tartar sauce made daily along with the two vegetable sides are impossible to pass up. Even my Southern mom says they are the best she has ever put in her mouth. By the way, with reference to one of your reviews, Greenwood's DOES take credit cards and DOES make sweet tea. I especially like the personable service--a respite from some of the pouty, can't-be-bothered servers you normally encounter--the continuing quality, the emphasis on organic produce and meats and all enjoyed in the beauty and serenity of the gardens. BTW, those are old hours. Greenwood's is open Wed - Sunday from 11:30 to 9:00 or 10:00 pm (sorry I can't remember exactly but I do know they don't close after the usual lunch hours).
- Pros: Service/quality of food
- Cons: Have to know where to park (like across the street at the other restaurant)/I wish parents would keep their kids seated.
