“Absolutely loved the food. The chicken gravy on a homemade biscuit was some of the best gravy I've had. The biscuit was fresh and tasted like Mom's homemade. The creamy grits were right on. Added on a side of fresh tasty fruit. Couple all of this with a couple of scrambled eggs and my mouth was watering for more.

The outdoor tables under roof allowed us to enjoy the weather without the sunburn. The server was extra helpful and attentive.

This was a very good day. I'll be back.“

“I researched popular restaurants in the area….because I was visiting from out of town. This restaurant was one of the 1st restaurants that appeared, and I read the reviews and saw that patrons had all good things to say! I pulled up and spoke with Ali, very friendly and helped me decide on what I should order. I advised him that I love Salmon, and he recommended the salmon and rice dinner. I also was being greedy(lol) and wanted to try the whole chicken wings and okra. I will say…. EVERYTHING WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!!! Ali did warn me though, that if I wanted a spicy salmon, it would be a bit spicy… and OMG… he wasn’t lying!!! lol lol
However…. The food was soooo delicious! I will definitely visit this restaurant again when I’m in town! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽💯💯💯💯“

“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.“

“As an owner/operator of a café right across the street in The Refinery building, I come here all the time and it’s always a great experience.

They have tons of drink options, affordable beer, and the space itself is beautiful. West Morehead Street deserved a spot like this: dynamic, welcoming, and full of great energy.

Huge recommendation: get the extra crispy breaded wings with seasoned fries. The service is excellent, and they also have two huge 4-TV synced monitor setups, which makes it perfect for game days.

I’ve been enjoying the series here and will definitely keep coming back.

Trey of fries, 8 wings and a Beer for $20 litty“
