Cedar's Restaurant


Located at 6104 West Market Street in Greensboro, Cedar’s Restaurant offers pizza, sandwiches, and Italian fare. Delivery is available.

Situated a stone’s throw from Greensboro’s industrial area, Cedar’s makes the most of its proximity: the food here is quick, cheap, and filling. None of that is to say that it is actually good, but it’s likely good enough for the purpose it serves.

Cedar’s is infinitely more appealing for take-out/delivery than as a dine-in option. The interior is dated and somewhat dirty: the trashcan was practically overflowing at the time of our visit. The employee working the counter, however, was friendly and accommodating.

The food was a mixed bag. An order of zucchini sticks was likely previously frozen. They were neither revolting nor memorable. A Greek salad was generously portioned with a good balance of ingredients. Our pizza was served oven-hot, and the toppings were fresh, but neither the sauce nor the crust had much flavor at all.

If there is an upshot to this mediocrity, it is that it is budget-friendly. Large 18-inch pizzas start at $13.35, a good value for the quantity of pie. The entrée-sized salads, which can easily feed two, run $7.75 while footlong hot sandwiches go for $8.25. If you are looking to have leftovers or feed a group, having to add more seasonings yourself to compensate for the blandness seems like a small price to pay.

As a place to have a meal, Cedar’s would rate much lower, but it offers enough in the way of value, convenience, and expediency to make it worth your consideration if you’re in the area.
