Food was fabulous best shrimp and grits. Steak is on point. Pricy but for a evening out special event definitely worth it.
Celebrated our anniversary with a delicious dinner. Wonderful food and service.
Victoria was great food was great
Went there for our anniversary dinner and loved everything about our experience!
Ryan's never disappoints. Everything was perfect.
My wife’s birthday. They had us by the widow. And she was given free dessert. The service was unreal he was always checking on us and our tea and water never ran out. Food was out of this world.
Normally me and my husband get steaks but tonight he tried the shrimp and grits I got the salmon it was so bland and basic. We were very disappointed. We didn’t even eat our food we boxed it up. But our server Netta was great. Guess we will be sticking to the steaks
Great place for celebratory dinner, fine dining experience. Food is wonderful and service is top shelf.
Delicious food, lovely ambiance, staff is very professional.
Traveling through the area and found this place online. Food was excellent. I wasn’t the best dressed diner and this caused the waiter to judge me. I tipped more than 25% anyway.
Great, per usual!
The entrees were great. The server must have been having a bad night. He forgot our drink order, failed to deliver the oysters we ordered and disappeared when asked to bring hot sauce.
Disappointed in the quality of food. Out of by the glass wine and grouper. Blamed it on supply chain?
Ordered filet and it was over cooked. Salad was average with too much dressing.
Excellent meal and service!
Filet was delicious and tender, order medium rare.
My go to place in Winston Salem, food was not hot this time, but overall great place!

Ryan’s is our favorite restaurant! The Chilean sea bass was absolutely delicious as was the lamb chops and salmon.
An amazing restaurant! Completely amazing food. Server was respectful and that was special.
Wonderful restaurant for a special occasion. Quite expensive- for two people it was $140 with the tip. But it was worth it celebrating the anniversary of our twin boys birth/death. We always try to celebrate the day together.

Food and service was great. Our server Mark was wonderful.
My wife and I chose Ryan's to celebrate our 24th wedding anniversary. We had eaten there right after our engagement. Our return was well worth it. Coincidently, we were seated at the same table from that last visit. The staff was friendly and efficient. They helped make our celebration warm and wonderful. The appetizer selection is impressive, as is the main menu. We had terrific cocktails, a great dinner with wine selected from an amazing wine list, and finished with a complimentary glass of champagne to top off the fabulous evening.
Great food, atmosphere and service for a perfect Anniversary dinner.
Highly recommend for special occasions.

From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is warm and inviting. Very romantic. And the food…..WOW!! …..is absolutely amazing. I highly recommend the pan seared, Wagyu NY Strip served Au Poivre.
