“A classic fish camp experience. You can't go wrong here. My original review was over 2 years ago. I have been going to Jones' all my life and it remains my favorite fish camp anywhere. I highly recommend the Flounder. They are famous for their slaw (sour) although I prefer the sweet slaw. The service is always excellent.“

Shout out to Elaine who was so friendly!!!!“

“Everyone is always so kind here! Drinks are also delicious . I wanted to give a personal shoutout to Ariana. I was behind a car in drive thru who was being SO rude to her. Complaints on complaints. I was watching and listening to it all happen for at least 5 mins. RUDE lady!!
Ariana kept her composure and was very professional and kind. Ariana and the rest of the staff are awesome!! :) no complaints here“

“Great food and amazing service. We love everything about Court Street.“

“Food was good. Little greasy as expected. Only real complaint is how they do things for the drive thru. No one else at screens or window when we ordered/paid, but that’s because they put a sticker on your mirror and you have pull up past the window to park and wait on them to bring it out. Once you pay, there’s 3 lanes. 2 outer lanes to park and wait and a middle for leaving. We sat there for almost 30 mins waiting on 2 plain burger combos. Some people that were there before us, were still there after we left. They come out wandering around confused as they are trying to match the order to the number on your rear view mirror. It was an odd experience and not one I plan to repeat anytime soon. Really shouldn’t take that long for fast food.“

“I had been wanting to eat at a real country kitchen food, had been in some but haven’t found one that I satisfied.
Today, I found one: this Granny’s Country Kitchen in Claremont, NC
The ambiance was casual, family oriented, and food was very yummy, service by a young, pretty and efficient Cami, the reasonable prices made an amazing lunch!
I told my husband that I wished this restaurant was in our neighborhood.
Highly recommend to those who travel to this part, it’s a must stop for lunch or dinner, besides a great meal, we support the local as well.“

“Was seated as soon as we came in, it was not packed as we got there at 11 am before the lunch rush. I had the Club basket, which I definitely recommend, it was so good. I absolutely love their fries, and the ranch was homemade. The bathrooms are at the front, and the atmosphere is charming and cozy. Our waitress was awesome as she stayed on it with our drinks and our food came out fast too.“

“Hands down some of the BEST nachos I've ever had!!! The cowboy burger with the fried bologna on it was also delicious! Staff is super friendly they just need a bigger spot. Go show these awesome people some love! And if it's hot and you see a tall kid with black hair, bring him to a pool somewhere! Lol! Definitely a must try!!!“

“Thomas Hammond, manager , great service, GREAT food. Best in North Carolina“

“Ordered the 6oz filet with fries and chicken wings.
There is no picture of the wings. They were so good they dissappear before I could get a picture.
My son took me out for lunch to celebrate his Black Belt ceremony.
My steak tasted really good, and had it been cooked to order, it would have been awesome.
My regret is not sending it back because I ordered medium rare, and I get medium well, and that disappointed me.
I wonder if someone received my steak or did the chef just overcook it.“

“Awesome place to eat, I am part of their delivery personal, they have ALWAYS treated me with the upmost respect and they are a down home country kitchen that's for sure, and their honey bun cake is absolutely amazing if you aint been there to get a piece your missing out, it hands down by far the best dessert ive ever eatten“

“It was good, server was super cool, def great with people. I wish I could remember her name so she can get the recognition she deserves. She was mixed, mentioned she was going back to school. It was just her and a cool that also me toned it was his first day with his promotion to cook.

Everything was good my only complaint was the grill could have been cleaned a lot better for the amount of people and orders the were receiving (It was just us there at the time). The bacon was covered in the black grill cabon gunky stuff.“

“We were traveling through Hickory and decided to stop in. We ordered the crab cakes, calamari, and jumbo shrimp stuffed with crab meat. All were seasoned very well and delicious. The service was awesome. We live an hour and a half away, but the food was so delicious we are considering returning soon 😊.“

“Lincolnton Waffle House has the best cook / server ( Kendra ) I highly recommend her !! She was very friendly and checked on us to make sure we was okay and her food was great as well !!“

“Great food just make sure you don't park at the old gas station the man that owns that is hateful“

“Best bbq, hush puppies and tartar sauce!“

“Yall. This place is amazing! The chef is legit!!!! Not only was our server just a sweetheart but the food was dang good. My husband got a patty melt and I got the veggie pasta, and let me tell you, I licked my plate clean! And the price was just right!! We will be back again and again!! Oh, get the fried deviled eggs, just do it.

Kid-friendliness: Kids menu was good and our bubs loved the French fries!“

“GLAD I STOPPED FOR LUNCH, WORKERS WERE GREAT. FOOD WAS EXCELLENT, PRICES ARE GOOD TOO. THE $7 MEALS ARE AFFORDABLE AND WORTH THE STOP. WILL BE STOPPING AGAIN, BUT NEXT TIME WITH THE FAMILY.“

“Found this gem while visiting my family in Lincolnton. Absolutely loved it! Food is great and the people just as great. Moved to the east coast in 2009 and I have miss my " all the way burgers " I was so happy to find this place! Had fried avocados and now I am hooked.“

“Great food, I try to eat at Sharon's atleast once a week. Just wish they were open later than 2:00“

“We're traveling from West Virginia visiting relatives. This particular Waffle House is right next to our motel. The food was delicious and all of the staff was so nice and friendly.And the service was fast. If we pass through again we will stop in“

“Quiet & clean. Staff was attentive & friendly. Food came quickly & as ordered. Food was very good. Highly recommend!“

“I'm disappointed in the choices of the touch toons selection. A lot of songs that where available are no longer able to play. I really wish that it wasn't controlled by the establishment like kindergarteners at a pg13 movie.“

“Corporate and management: this is not a Chuck E. Cheese. If I wanted to be messy with children that weren’t mine, I would go there. But parents with small children do not belong in the BAR with their small children.

Attempting to enjoy a dinner with my husband. One parent stood and ordered an adult beverage and never sat down, made me very uncomfortable. Then I moved, and as the parents with more children arrived, they then sat all these children (all under the age of 10, at the bar around my husband and I.
The bartender had a better eye on the children than their own parents.

If I wanted to be around small children, I would have opted for a child friendly environment.“

“Great staff. great tacos 🌮 and Love karaoke night 🎤“

“Nice to see another cookout with an indoor dining room. Food wise, cookout always has another food item up their sleeve to keep people coming back. Their prices have gone up but are still affordable for the working class, and you get a decent amount of food.“

“Great food and the corn 🌽 on the cob was delicious 😋!“

“The food is always great so I started ordering to go to have lunch while at work The last two times I went I ordered for curbside for them to bring it out on both occasions I ended up having to go inside and there was no one staffed at the to go counter and had to wait there as well. Eating in has always been great they could use an extra hand managing to go and curbside though.“

“Came here with my family and had a great experience… it’s been awhile since we have been to bob evans, we loved the food and the atmosphere… our Server Alana was great! Super positive attitude, an made sure everyone was happy. 10/10 will eat there again!“

“My wife and I were traveling with our 3 dogs so we needed to eat outside. It was about 55 degrees and Jewel said she would wait on us outside or we would not have been able to eat there with our dogs. Jewel was not only a great waitress but a great person as well. She was very nice to our barking chihuahuas and us. Thank you.“
