EDIT: I AM NOT A BOT LIKE THE OWNER CLAIMS AND THIS IS HORRIBLE THAT THEY WOULDN'T AT LEAST APOLOGIZE. I never leave bad reviews, but I just had a horrible experience here. The staff was very nice to start with and we got seated fast with our orders taken quickly. It was very busy and there was a birthday party. So, we expected a wait. However, our order was placed at 7:08 and I walked out at 7:55 with no food. Everyone around us got their full meals, from the same waitress and different ones. We talked to the waitress multiple times and kept getting told it would just be 10 more minutes. When we finally just decided to leave another worker kept trying to make excuses saying that the other guests just got appetizers, but they actually got appetizers and meals. The excuses was the final straw and what finally made us genuinely upset which lead to this review.

We've been wanting to try this place for awhile. We drive by it every week on our way to George Poston Dog Park. We waited for an hour for our food! Way to long. There were people that came after us that got their food before us. My wife needs to be gluten-free. They had gluten-free Buns but she ordered a side salad and it had croutons. Ambiance was ok. Our server did the best she could. I told her our table was sticky and she wiped it with a wet cloth. It made it a little better. The food was very tasty but by the time it came, I was pretty frustrated. Really to bad. I was looking forward to trying this place and I'm sad to say, I don't see that I'll be coming back.

Waitress was Very good... as was the food... Kitchen was very Slow... Took over 40 Minutes to get our food... Will Definitely go back, Just make sure you have nowhere to be..
Nice variety of choices on menu. Good service but a little noisy in the open spaces.

Food was Good but not great . Just seems like a place for those that are day drinking or looking to just chill at the bar. Not a lot of choices on the menu.

The burgers, melts, and brussel sprouts were good. The chicken tenders and fried mushrooms were fine. However, there was no good dipping sauce. The honey mustard tasted like pure horseradish, and the ranch was watery and only tasted like dill. Also, be warned that many of the dishes in the reviews are only special and not served most of the time. Check the current menu because we came to get things that were not on it! Overall, I really hope they can fix their sauces. The fried things were fine. They just needed sauce!

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!

Worst service I ever had at a restaurant. Was seated and was waiting for nearly 30 mins and no servers came to our table . Just got up and left and no one even noticed us .
The food here is excellent without question. BUT the service is extremely lacking for whatever reason. If they went back to their prior model of no wait staff, it would be so much better.

The quality and flavor of the food today was just so bad. For the price and it's location it's just not worth the effort of visiting. Save yourself the disappointment and go literally anywhere else. I'm giving 2 stars because the fries were decent. The cook and staff obviously don't care enough to try.
