“Awesome place to eat and amazing staff!!“

“Really great place. Lots of space, live sports all over the place, and friendly workers as well as locals. You’ll have a great time.“

“David and Cheyenne are a dynamic duo! The food was the BEST I've EVER had at a waffle house! And it was CLEAN, EVEN THE BATHROOM! I will definitely be returning to this location again and again!! If I had to give a complaint, it was too cold and the music was a bit loud. Plenty of room for a bobtail but I wouldn't take a 53' trailer in there. Thank you guys!!!"♥️♥️“

“Our waitress was so nice and helpful. Our food was delicious! If I didn’t live 45 mins away, I’d go there a lot more often!“

“Happy hour appetizers 4-6p and $5 Jack Jim and Jameson. Love this place.“

“The food and service were EXCELLENT!!!“

“Overall great dining experience on an explorative family outing. The only consideration was the dessert. The Banana pudding while served up in a giant goblet of a dish was 95% cream whip. A great Banana pudding in most opinions should have either banana or cookie or both in every bite.“

“The vibe here is amazing! I love a double entendre so walking in to see a sign that says “meat here” with a giant arrow instantly gives me the giggles! The multicolored decor and cool artwork made it hard to do anything but keep smiling. As soon as we’re seated our waitress says “I love your earring and all your jewlery” and I was smitten. I took my jacket off right as she was brining our food. “I love your tattoos” she says and I’m falling in love with this place. The cheesin steak sandwich is smothered in cheese, the wings are crispy, our appetizers came out fast and hot, and the atmosphere was great. I was having such a good time I didn’t even mind the watered down, chunkless blu cheese. You won’t either I promise! My husband and friends notified the waitress it was my 29th birthday to which she replied “29 would have never guessed your 29!” and I’m a little shocked. The thing is it was 13th 29th birthday so I reply “ and how old did you think I was?” I’m expecting a 35 or 36…. She says “24!” I laughed so much and said “I’m actually 42” and it was her turn to be shocked. She actually insisted I pull out my ID and that’s when I knew this lunch date was a Flirtatious Fork 5 star “Marry Me” good! ❤️ the food, the vibe, the service, the drinks (get the emerald godness, it’s amazing!) 💔 having to leave and knowing there isn’t a groovy beast near me! If im ever in Gastonia again I’ll go back!“

“Enjoyed the Experience. Food and Spicy Bloody Mary.“

“Quite a strange name of the place. Pelicans are avian of temperate weather zones. Snowballs are typically in a colder climate zone. So .. Mixing the two gives it a whimsical avant garde atmosphere. The kids love it. It's good.. It's a happy time and place. You must come here. Oh yes I dare say you must.“

“Stumbled across Mustafa's Place Bessemer City via a good search. Decided to try it out and are thankful we did! Very friendly service! Great, super clean spot in Bessemer City. We tried the Mixed Kebab Platter, Adana Kebap Platter, some hummus, and some falafel. Everything was delicious! The Turkish coffee was also very nice. The Kadayif dessert is excellent, as are the pistachio baklava. I wholly recommend Mustafa's Place Bessemer City, and we will definitely be back!“

“This place is fantastic! Amazing service, the food was OUTSTANDING!! We got pretzel bites for an appetizer that were out of this world, I had salmon which was cooked and seasoned to Perfection with wonderful crispy tater tots. We finished the meal with soft homemade chocolate chip cookies. Love the different shows that are on the tvs and the atmosphere is lovely. Can't wait to come back!“

“From the moment we walked in, it was clear this place runs like a well-oiled smoker. The ordering process was incredibly efficient, no long waits, just a smooth, well-organized system that gets you from the front door to your plate without a hitch. Within minutes of placing our order, our server was at the table to collect our order ticket. Every person we interacted with was warm, friendly, and genuinely seemed to enjoy what they do. They checked in just the right amount and made us feel completely at home. Now, the food… wow. Every bite was a reminder of why BBQ is comfort food at its finest. Tender, juicy and flavorful! I highly recommend! On an unrelated note, it’s also quite clear that the owner has great taste in music 🤩😉“

“Very home like feeling here. People are super welcome, as always & food is delicious @ a very fair price. I've been visiting this place for years whenever we're around & hungry. As long as they're open, we'll continue to support them.“

“The place to go in the greater Gaston area for pool! Six 9’ tables and twelve 7’ tables- all Diamonds. Tables are well maintained. Note that you must pay cash for table rentals (there is an ATM). Typically run 9-ball losses tournament on Friday and 8-ball losses tournament on Saturday. Check the Facebook for tournament scheduling. Good bar food with creative, comfort food specials regularly. Incredible brisket when on special (check the Facebook for food specials). Awesome pizza daily. Ownership (Brandon & Runt) make a heck of a duo, and they pour their hearts and funding into the business for THE PEOPLE!“

“on ride back to Hickory from York SC needed something to eat. stopped at Pita wheel and loved the food,waitress, and service. everything was wonderful“

“Love the quiet vibe and the food was very tasty. Has the turkey sandwich with fruits as a side, which I must say was a breath of fresh air from the typical sides offered in America consisting of various types of fries. A little cup of assorted fruits hits the spot.“

“Delicious and the staff were working nonstop!“

“Excellent Chicken Philly and Delicious Hand Pattied Cheese Burgers.. The Building and Employees are Clean and Nice..
My only concern is that the area isn't very Welcoming and Safe Feeling.. I NEVER go alone.. That's just my opinion.. I've never had any problems..“
