“We just had such a delightful dinner at Nellie’s this evening! As delicious as the food was, the service was even better!! Joshua was our waiter and truly just a GEM. Can’t say enough about his service and the atmosphere he brought to our dinner. I had the grilled shrimp entree, Caesar salad, and pimento cheese appetizer - so delicious!!! My mom had the shrimp and grits and loved it as well. We got the peanut butter pie & banana pudding to go - my fam is going to be happy we brought something home from Nellie’s!! Thanks for a great night!“

“Came in for a girls night with some friends. Started with a game of bowling, then played 3 games of pool and finished up with corn hole. 2 bars open to serve alcoholic drinks. Patio seating to enjoy the weather. They also have connect four, Jenga and table tennis. Had a great time!“

“5 ⭐️ We came back to give this location another try; had a bad experience at the drive thru previously but the owner reached out to us, listened and seemed more than genuine in his distress. He promised that it would be better. He was right. Tonight we dined in—it was raining like crazy and we didn’t want to overload the drive thru. Diana was our server and she was delightful. Personable, efficient and caring. Our meal was perfect; the atmosphere was relaxed and happy and we enjoyed ourselves. Thanks for asking us back; we will get back to our regular visits.“

“Never been here before and it was the best. Tried 4 different kinds and loved them all. The potatoes soup was also very good. I will definitely go back. The ladies working there in front were also very kind and informative. Love the little cookies also. Visited 3/4/23?Vegetarian options: Mostly salads“

“Ordered from this truck a few times when they're in my area. Everything I've gotten has been on point. Remoulade sauce on the shrimp po boy is really good. Great service, very friendly. Prices are good as food trucks go. Thank you!“

“This Shomars location is excellent. The food is always hot and fresh. The establishment stays clean including the bathrooms. It's a quiet environment. It doesn't matter what time you go there is always tables available and rarely a line. That's the best part. If you love peace along with quality food and friendly staff this is definitely for you. I want to give a big shout out to Payton, Sebastian and the chefs for giving top-notch service every time I eat here. There is another young Queen who takes my order sometimes that I would like to acknowledge as well. I always do my best to leave a big tip because not only do these Queens and King deserve it but I know it's not always easy working in fast food. Please go and support. To me, this is the best location in Charlotte.“

“TLDR; Very friendly and fast service, nostalgic food with phenomenal flavor development and a welcoming environment. 10/10 recommend.Wow. This place was recommended by a friend and I’m so glad I went. It is clean, welcoming and when you first walk in it smells soooo good - which is always a good sign to me that the food is going to taste amazing.I got the Saturday special of beef tips over rice and gravy, hush puppies, with sides of green beans and baked beans. All the beans. This meal….when I tell you it brought me back to sitting at my grandmas on a weekend long forgotten, I mean it. This meal transported me through time. My grandma is no longer with me, and to feel connected again after many years…I’m now a loyal customer. The gravy was so flavorful, the beef tips had just the right amount of char and the green beans were fantastic!!My partner got the half BBQ chicken with French fries, mashed potatoes and cornbread. There was nothing left on his plate. I will say the hush puppies were better than the cornbread in my opinion, but I’m a hush puppy lover.Give this place a shot. It’s worth it!Kid-friendliness: Plenty of space and I saw coloring and reading books below the hostess stand!Wheelchair accessibility: There are no stairs and the entry way is wide. The doors are not automatic but definitely wide and accessible.“

“yes I give Shane's at northlake a 10+. My experience was nothing but awesome thanks to DJ. DJ is one awesome person, he makes going to Shane's a pure pleasure. Make sure when you go ask for DJ, he is the Greatest. Thank u for kindness you show towards my husband and I. See u real soon.“

“A very nice mid-priced dining experience. Think Chili's, but with a more American menu. The food was excellent. I particularly recommend the fried cheese puffs. The service I received was also excellent and the bill was quite reasonable. Would recommend.Vegetarian options: Four vegetable side dishes can be chosen along with a salad to make a vegetable plate.“

“I took my Momma and we ordered take out but the girl was so nice last Saturday night and the amount of food and how good the food was is impressive! Probably going there again tomorrow night. Down home people, down home food and the prices for what we got were a great value! I recommend Riverside to anybody that loves fish. We were not disappointed. ?“

“Now knows as Pies & Sides, we were waiting to get an opportunity to grab some pies as they have limited hours. I grabbed the meat pies and I have to say I am not sorry, they’re delicious. When I was in there the girl that checked me out was very friendly and told me that they will be open later on Tuesdays and Thursday evenings for take out only. I am definitely looking forward to that!“

“The food was piping hot and well seasoned. The service was professional and caring with smiles. The collards are home cooked and the slaw is fine and delicious. If you have not tried the fried squash you have missed out on a great flavor and enough to share . Elina and Billy will make sure you are happy , full and satisfied. Just ask Alma and Ray“

“I just love the people who work here and the crowd that comes here as well. They’re always very friendly and helpful. I’m a mama of two little kids under 5 and everyone we met was so kind. The food is really good as well. Definitely would recommend their spaghetti!“

“I definitely give this place a 5⭐️.. Most of the time I get the shrimp salad . It’s ALWAYS fresh and you get plenty of shrimp on the salad only $10.00 . I have also had other food on the menu , it’s always hot and fresh and them greens bussin? LOL.. Friendly, fast, great food . I wish they had more locations. I live in Dallas and it’s definitely worth the drive. Thanks Chicken Bucket Family ☺️“
