“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.“

“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.“

“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!!!"♥️♥️“

“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!“

“This place is a legendary cornerstone of the south gastonia culture if u wana know how it was done from the 50s til now u will instantly walk in and wish ur grandpaw was still alive to eat one more liver mush egg and cheese but that isnt reality but then when u step back into reality u and ur son are eating a small town culinary masterpiece and are instantly enthralled in the atmosphere and have done spent 45 mins looking at all the pictures of families thru time that are literally made on the table top then u realise oh wow the service and people are the most down home hospitable people especially the ladies and bo so please at least, once come here and have this staple of southern living!“

“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.“

“Antonie, was fantastic! Best waiter we've had in a while! 100000% recommended seating in his section!“

“Excellent Chicken Philly and Delicious Hand Pattied Cheese Burgers.. The Building and Employees are Clean and Nice..

“Over all its a good place to eat except on Tue. and Weds. Service is poor on these days, We use to eat everyday but now we Skipp these two days. We came in last Wed. and not many people there . We went in and had three empty boots but they had plats and food still on the table and the help was standing around talking and on their phones. We set waiting in the window chairs for them to do something and almost left. I told my wife this is why we don't come on Tues. and Weds. I don't like to fuss but its sorry help on these two days as servers go.“
