“I had such a great experience this morning! I picked up breakfast for the credit union I work for and arrived right at 7:00 AM when they opened because the catering website wasn’t working the night before. I was amazed at how quickly and professionally my large order was handled. Briana (I hope I spelled her name correctly!) took my order and helped me choose the best options. I really appreciated her attention to detail. She even went back into the kitchen to make sure the cooks knew exactly how I wanted everything packaged. Her customer service and willingness to help truly made my morning and my whole day! Thank you, Briana, for going above and beyond. Keep up the amazing service—there need to be more people like you!”

“I have eaten here several times and I am so glad that I found this place. The food is always consistent, fresh and made with love. I had the burger, salmon over rice, lemon pepper wings and fries. The burger is really good!! The salmon over rice was out of this world!! And the lemon pepper wings are the best I have ever had in life!! The customer service is phenomenal and the restaurant is clean. This is definitely a must try if you enjoy food that makes your taste buds dance!! Heading back for more lemon pepper wings and I am going to try the chopped cheese!!”

“Me and about 25 of my chapter brothers had our reunion luncheon here last Friday 7/22/22. The food was amazing, literally the best thing I ate in Charlotte. In addition the service was impeccable and the restrooms where spotless. They even kept the Resturant open for an additional hour to accommodate us. I couldn’t have hoped for a better experience for our event. Thank you so much. We will be back.”

“Couldn't get access even though I told them I'm disabled and they talked through a megaphone. I returned later on after the Chris Brown concert and drove up to the trailer where they prepared food only to again not be served. I'm over it. I thought the 'cop' was extremely aggressive with a smile and insults to match about my age . UGHHH. I'll never eat there.”
