Machete - Greensboro

The most interesting restaurant in Guilford County hands down. The cocktails are especially great. Probably not an ideal place to take adults who prefer chicken nuggets and Mac n cheese.

Before coming to this restaurant, you have to make a decision about yourself.Person A, does the idea of meeting one to three other friends for fancy drinks and sharing five to ten plates of food sound exciting?Person B, getting a meal and leaving full with maybe some leftovers sound satisfy to you?If you are person A, then this is the place for you. You'll get about three bites of each plate when sharing with three other friends. Each bite is absolutely amazing and expertly crafted. You may even order double plates. Our favorite was the short ribs and steak, but there wasn't a bad plate. If allowed, I'd lick each plate.If you are person B, make plans to have dinner afterwards. That could be at another restaurant or home. All of us were talking about our dinner plans after we left. The food is amazing, but you'll wish the plates where double the size.Personality, I'm a person B. While I enjoyed each and every single bite, I left pretty hungry. I ate a sandwich afterwards while writing this review. I think slightly larger portions would have gone a long way.Oh, and I liked the apple dessert the best. The s'more was more like a fudge brownie.Parking: Parking is available in the back or along the street.

If beautiful had a taste this would be it! AMAZING food with unique flavors that satisfy. 10 out of 10

Wow! First time and we will be back! We had the bread service, corn, carrots and duck wings plus both of the desserts! The duck wings and s’more were our favorites along with the delicious mocktails. Our server Ian was fantastic and wonderful to us all evening. It’s so nice to have a place that combines art and food right here in Greensboro!

Machete sets a high bar for food. A very high bar.Im not often flabbergasted with food anywhere large cities and definitely not small towns. But Machete blew my socks off. I actually ordered one dish a second time because it was so divine.It’s not about the simple flavors, it’s about the complexity of execution in ingredient selection, pre work, preparation, cooking and overall flavor combination that can drive something to the extreme. This is only the 2nd meal in 2023 that has delivered that for me. Thank you Machete in Greensboro NC!The meatballs are all I described above a delicate crunch from some magic fry work, perfect consistency, light but present coating, and paired with cherries that added some tartness which paired surprisingly well. One of the best executed small dishes of my life.The duck wings were delectable a bit messy with the dry rub but quite tasty and highly recommendedCocktails very well executedI’m at a loss for words100% approve of Machete.
