Hollywood's Restaurant & Bakery

Hollywood Restaurant looks like an old diner and the interior reinforces that impression. The parking area is small with some odd sloping spots. We were greeted promptly and led to a table. The service was up to scratch and sooo friendly. Food was delivered in a timely manner, and plates were cleared from the table. The wine list is woefully inadequate. We ended up with a bottle of something red but it wasn’t very good. The food menu, on the other hand, is a pleasant surprise with quite a variety of options. We ordered three entrees and an appetizer and all were large portions. The Chesapeake bay fried oyster appetizer was mostly breading wrapped around very small oysters. It was our least favorite. The shrimp and grits was delicious but really spicy – which the waitress warned us about. The shrimp were cooked perfectly, and they were a nice size. The Catfish Matrimony was lightly fried served on southern grits with a creamy Cajun andouille and shrimp sauce and garnished with tomatoes and green onions was very tasty. It came with a side of some lightly sauteed vegetables which I could have eaten more of. The coconut shrimp were also large and were right up my spouse’s alley. The accompanying french fries were very good. We were stuffed by the end of the meal and ended up with several doggy bags. Definitely recommend giving this place a try!

We were traveling through the area and staying overnight in Troutville. I found a tiny menu for Hollywood's in the hotel's travel section. I like the menu choices, so we tried it. I had the 1/2 rack ribs, mashed potatoes and coleslaw. Ribs fell off the bones, potatoes were creamy. My husband had the Pimento Burger with French fries. He loved both. He ordered his bacon crispy. His only complaint would be not enough Pimento cheese on the burger. I would have tried a dessert, but they had been very busy all day and were sold out of many choices.

A great neighborhood Cafe type of restaurant in a well-loved building. Nice and clean friendly and helpful staff great food! Our son particularly liked the caramel cashew brownie with ice cream on top!! I had a marvelous salad with apples and walnuts cranberries and the homemade ginger dressing... Yum!

The hotel we were staying at recommended this local eatery and boy was it an awesome one. Nothing fancy about this restaurant but the food and service exceeded our expectations. The menu has something for everyone and the prices were very reasonable and in fact less than I expected. It you are looking for a local restaurant with a bunch of options be sure to checkout this spot.

Wow! What an amazing restaurant. The food was so delicious and wholesome. Our family was staying in the area and so glad that we found this place. The salmon was top notch and the pork chops were some of the best my husband has had. Definitely save room for dessert! Barbara was our waitress was so sweet and kind. She made our dining experience one we will never forget.
