A Winston-Salem mainstay has a new look and a new menu — the restaurant now breaks dishes down into small plates. Mix and match sides and mains. Sides are big enough to share.

I can’t get enough of this pizzeria. The pies are Neopolitan-style, charred and baked in a wood oven, and their toppings emphasize local ingredients. The pizza’s got to be good if it’s worth driving to Greensboro. And it is.
Open seven days a week, 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. The bar is open later.

Though the service is chronically lackadaisical, the traditional Irish selections here make this a menu to seek out if you’re in the mood for unusual rib-sticking pub food. Brunch is especially good here and the best deal on the menu.
11 a.m. to 2 a.m. Monday through Saturday; 10 a.m. to 2 a.m. Sunday. Menu switches to a late night selection at 10 p.m. Sunday brunch is served from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Better-than-average bar food and a welcoming outdoor patio with wide umbrellas. Try the crab cakes and the Bayaldi sandwich, a lusty mix of roasted vegetables, goat cheese, olives and pine nuts in hot flatbread.
11 a.m. to 2 a.m. Monday through Saturday.

The Winston-Salem branch of a mainly Southeastern chain, Firebirds jumps on the fire-grilled bandwagon with steaks, fish and chicken and a Southwestern and Rock Mountain edge. The sesame-crusted salmon is superb; surprisingly, so are the salads.
