Restaurants in Mooresville

“best mac n cheese”

“My family and I received superb service. Bonus: The food was delicious 😊.”

“Good food. Good people.”

“So, if you think you’ve eaten cookies, you haven’t. I’m kinda frustrated with Red’s because I will never enjoy another cookie the same way again. They are crispy and moist. They are unique and classic. They even taste fresh the next day! I was given a flavor I don’t even like and now I think it’s my new favorite. Who needs healthy blood sugar levels when you can eat a cookie from Red’s?”

“Everyone who works here is always so kind!!! Definitely my fav!!!!”

“My server Monique was awesome . She knew the menu inside and out and had a great attitude. My service was efficient , fast , attentive and fun . You need to clone her.”

“Nothing negative to say. The cocktails, appetizer and entrees were SPOT ON, The food and service was 5 stars. Diego was the most profession and comical server. We only live 2 miles away and have found a diamond in the rough. We will definitely make this spot our regular date night!!”

“I enjoy the call ahead waiting list. Food is always good, and fruit is fresh.”

“The beef noodle bowl and Vietnamese egg rolls are out of this world!!”

“NC Donut Star is simply the Best! A coworker turned me onto theDonut Star and I have to fight the urge to go there sometimes because I battle with my weight. The donuts are light and fluffy. They are so soft and delicious. I am going to the beach today and I am going to pick up an assortment so my mom can try them. I have raved about this place and she is curious as to see what they taste like. I am sure that she will be delighted as I am. The store is clean and it is a great environment. All of the donuts in the case look so inviting that it is hard to choose what little beauty you will pick out. I am impressed! I highly recommend checking them out. Krispy Kreme Who? yeah, I said that.”

“Great experience with live performance and excellent staff”

“Excellent service, fresh and delicious seafood, stylish interior plus outdoor seating area - great place!”

“Incredible! So many gluten free options, marked clearly on the menu. And FANTASTIC gluten free key lime pie! The owner, Nelson, made sure we knew how much they cared about making an affordable and safe GF dining experience. Loved the ambience and the food; the burger was one of the best I've ever had and the gf bun was soooo fluffy! They give you a FREE cookie at the end and the gf cookie was actually soft and not crumbly. I cried a little I was so excited. I will be back!”

“Amazing donuts and amazing people! The donuts are always so fresh and I just love doing custom orders with this team. Thank you!”

“So good and fresh every time!!! They definitely don't skimp on protein portions either in the sandwiches or salads. Our favorite food in LKN! My favorite is the spinach pesto caprese sandwich and add spicy chicken to it🤤”

“Wowww!! This is a must!!! Amazing food and service! The owner Ubi (spelling??) is an amazingly kind and generous person!! He shared so much about their authentic cooking and let us sample everything. Truly the best birria tacos and so much more!! Soups, stewed and grilled chicken with poblano cream sauce was superb! Highly recommend!”

“Great Food and awesome people!”

“I was on vacation with 3 other couples. we had a reservation on 8/22/25. Our server "Q" was great and did a wonderful job going over the specials and recommendations. The french onion soup was delicious. I am typically not a steak person, but decided to try the petite filet with garlic butter and the baked potato. It was phenomenal and I was very pleased with my choice. others got the ribs, lamb, lobster bisque, a plethora of sides, cheescake and lava cake....nothing was less than delicious. Bonus, I got engaged here as well”

“This is the second year we hosted our neighborhood holiday party at Shoals Grill. They have updated the private party room which was a nice surprise. We had a group of 50 people and the service and food was great. Andrew, the event manager, and our bartender were very accommodating and responsive to our needs. We look forward to hosting our party again there in 2025.”

“We come from New York and lived in Boca Raton and have now lived in Cornelius for four years and the food here in North Carolina is horrible to say the least! Acqua Ragazza is finally a place where you can find an excellent dining experience! The only downfall is that the prices are a bit high for the area where it is located and to add insult to injury when we asked for additional bread, they charged us a whopping four dollars which after what we were charged for the meal was shocking to say the least! Aside from that unless you either live in The Point in Mooresville or The Peninsula in Cornelius, very few people in this area will be able to afford the prices! Just a Point to Ponder for Management!”

“Amazing cocktail bar with the best service!”

“10 out of 10 really recommend”

“We just found our new favorite spot! The food was absolutely amazing, huge portions packed with flavor. The margaritas were out of this world, not only delicious but beautifully garnished. Our server, Santiago, was phenomenal. Every single recommendation he gave us, we tried, and he was spot on every time. The atmosphere was fun, relaxed, and full of good vibes and we laughed the entire time we were there. Everything was absolute perfection from start to finish. Can’t wait to come back!”

“After reading most of the reviews I can personally attest that many are accurate. We have been 3x , one lunch and 2 dinners. Lunch was good, no complaints at all but will agree the $$ is a bit high but what isn’t today. Now on to the dinners , both times it was 2 couples I would rate the first visit a 1 and the second a 4.5. The first experience was not pleasant. Slow service, cold dinner the list goes on. We decided to give it a go last week and a complete 180. Very good service very good food and our guests loved it as well. Everyone has an off day so very glad we tried it again. Next time it will be another lunch visit.”

“Taqueria Guerrero is tasty and worth your time. Got the carne taco, the pollo taco, and the chorizo taco. All of them were good, and the price was good too. I paid $15 for 5 tacos. The woman who helped me was friendly. I'd recommend taking your food to go because it's in a parking lot next to a gross abandoned car wash. But I've got nothing but good things to say about my experience. This is the best taco truck I've been to in the area.”

“Recently had a late lunch here and we really enjoyed it! It was a rainy and cloudy day and the Pho really hit the spot! They were very attentive to our gluten free requests and everything is labeled well. Will certainly be back!”

“My boyfriend and I rarely agree on our delivery orders, but this place exceeded both of our expectations! Great flavor and spice! Will definitely become our go to order moving forward!”

“Service was excellent! Food was delicious! We had a pizza, chicken parmesan, several salads and the canolli dip dessert! Draft beers hit the spot too. It's a favorite place for us as locals and we often bring out of town guests too!”

“This place was nothing short but AMAZING. We were serviced by the bartender. She gave us all the info on the lunch specials. I enjoyed everything I ordered and I found my favorite craft beer!!! 5 stars!!!”

“We have been going here since they opened. The food is always great, portions are good, the staff is always pleasant and it's one of our families favorites!”

“Great place delicious food fast and fresh food Great service delicious coffee”

“This young man named Harlem made my day. Very respectful. Fast and humble. So far he made the best experience for me at this location. I hope he move up soon. We need more young people like him. Very impressed”

“Great food & drinks!!! One of our favorites for tacos!!!”

“we went for Sunday brunch. .Our server Ashley(?) was fantastic! Did a great job describing the menu. Made everything sound delicious. This was our first visit there. Our food was fantastic! There were four of us, we had the Meatloaf Benedict eggs Benedict, Cajun shrimp omelette and the smashburger. we all sampled each other's food. Everything was so very good! We enjoyed ourselves so much that we went ahead and made a reservation for the following Friday evening dinner. Can't wait to go back!!!”

“Our first experience with Playa Bowls was at this location this afternoon for lunch. Gianna seemed to be working by herself when we walked in and there was not only a line waiting to order, but people waiting for their orders. To add to the chaos, it looked like mobile orders kept popping through too. After overhearing a conversation with a coworker on the phone, she was overwhelmed but had the coolest head and was still very kind. The wait was obviously longer than you’d expect, but we walked into it and had that expectation from the get-go so it was no issue for us. In case she had a rough day today, I hope she knows she handled the situation, the sudden rush, really well! The Pura Vida and Power bowls were delicious!”

“I love everything! I love you Macha B&K Tea Cafe!”

“Had a delicious breakfast here Saturday and Sunday mornings while in town visiting family. Love the food, atmosphere and exceptionally friendly staff!”

“I haven’t shut up talking about the Godfather sandwich to my fiance and I think I’ve annoyed her. Small price to pay because it was fantastic and honestly the best Italian Sandwich I’ve ever had. Staff was great too!”

“Really enjoyed going here for my birthday celebration. Staff was very nice. Waitress worked really hard considering it was a larger group. I had sushi. I sampled potsticker and chicken wrapped in lettuce. Very yummy. The decor is pleasant and relaxing for dinner.”

“Absolutely love their coffee. It's better than Starbucks I think. And the people there are very friendly and very nice.”

“Great beer and friendly staff!!”

“This is such a great spot with amazing staff! Get the sliders and a drink from Highway Bar!”

“I had a delicious mix grill which is the beef is very tender and the chicken very juicy and tasty and everything was great top to the point Absolutely we will be back I highly recommend it”

“Good food but never get orders correct. Because they never write stuff down”

“Had a baby reveal and double birthday celebration.. I had specific idea for a cake for expecting sisters..Rachel did an edible image I provided and decorated just as I had requested..PERFECTION!! And this was by far THE BEST marble cake I have ever eaten. Beyond moist and amazing icing!!! I also had 40 mini cupcakes a mix of 4 flavors (lemon, strawberry, red velvet and carrot) and I cannot tell you which was better…all the best yummy representation of their flavor!!! I am a cake junkie..I live for cake. My last meal request would be cake..and it would have to be made by Rachel! 11/10!!!! Such an amazing job! Happy me!”

“Had my Two Scoops today!! before my Resolutions kick in for 2025. Really enjoyed the Bart- and def better quality than some other local shops.”

“3-2025 This is our second year using the conference room @Performance Coffee for our Greeter's Team Training Conference. Jeff is so accommodating & willing to work with any group with the Conference Room having a big screen & wifi. We enjoy their Coffee, drinks & pasteries. Thank You Jeff & Staff for allowing us to feel right at home! Cindy Washam, Pastor @Kristina Gibbons, @Lake City Celebrate Recovery.”

“Great place! Cheap games (:”

“PLEASEEEEE update the app to allow Apple Pay. The app only allows one saved card and it’s so inconvenient when you need to use a different card, you have to delete one and add the other. Thanks”

“Visiting family nearby and found this place while looking for local restaurants in the area. Was not disappointed at all, we got bagel sandwiches and all were fantastic!! The owners are super friendly and accommodating, they triple checked the orders to make sure they were correct!! Will definitely be back to order a dozen bagels to take home!! My favorite bagel was the french toast, so yummy!! I can’t say enough good things about this place - definitely worth a visit or two!!”

“A wonderful time was had and as always Melanie is a wonderful host there. We've been going for over five years and will definitely be back. TJ & Bill Adcock”

“The food was awesome and i even called the store to ask for ranch since there wasn't a way to add any on the doordash app, and Sharika was kind enough to package up two cups of it in a little bag so it wouldnt spill everywhere :) thanks sharika! it was delicious!”

“First time visitor today. The Staff were most helpful. Ordered three subs to go. Excellent quality ingredients - Boars Head provisions - and great rolls. We’ll be back!”

“Came here as a first timer. Gm Kellen and bar manager Sam were so down to earth and made the entire experience! however I then got the food, I got a burger, pretzel rods and even ordered a pizza to go. I think it’s the best burger hands down I’ve ever had, pizza was perfect size and full of flavor. Great atmosphere, and has turned my normal lunch spot on its head because they’ll see me here way more often!!”

“It was a fun experience for my family, and I love that they allow dogs. It was clean and the people were very nice.
My coffee was excellent, but my food was ice cold in the middle. That being said, I will still come back. It’s a great place for my family living in Charlotte, Mooresville, and Statesville to meet.”

“Yum. Loved my strawberry shortcake”

“Their food was fresh and tasty. And the tortilla chips and sauce we ate before our meal was also very fresh and tasty. Also the folks working there were very nice and courteous! I will definitely make it a point eat there again when I’m in the area!”

“Reasonably priced. Helpful workers.”

“Great place to eat. Food is good and the atmosphere is very inviting. Our waitress Maria Sofia is great 👍. Makes it worth coming”

“I love Buckos fish Friday. So today I had my fish sandwich turned into a wrap to lose some bread. Light lettuce and light tartar. It was the bomb!! Lettuce added a little extra crunch and Buckos tangy tartar set it off in that wrap. It was a big flounder burrito. Will be my go to when I want fish now !!! Thank you guys for always making food hot, fresh and amazingly tasty!!”

“Some of the best company you can find in Mooresville! We salute and support our military veterans and active duty 🫡”

“This is definitely the best Chinese spot in town, just like some of the other reviews have mentioned. If you’re looking for great flavor, generous portions, and fair prices, China 2 delivers all that and more.

I ordered two sesame chicken combos—one without sesame seeds—and swapped the rice for lo mein for just a $2 upcharge. Each combo came with an egg roll and a sweet tea, making it a complete and satisfying meal. The chicken was cooked perfectly, and both the lo mein and egg roll were delicious.

At $10 per combo, the price is more than worth it, especially considering the portion size. You really get your money’s worth here.

If you’re in the area and craving Chinese, I highly recommend giving China 2 a try. As I always say, finding a good Chinese spot is a must, and this one checks all the boxes.”

“The sushi is so good and I love the selection. Their rice bowls are also yummy. This is my fav lunch spot and I go at least twice a week lol they also have a wide selection of boba if you’re into that. It’s soooooo gooooood”

“Great place to grab a bite and to fuel up your boat. Bought fuel all week from them with great fuel dock attendants. The food and wait staff were great too. Yet another place to frequent on our next trip to Lake Norman.”

“There is so much to choose from on the menu. And it is all delicious.

Kid-friendliness: They have a great kids menu. And the staff is great with them.”

“delicioso tacos de tripe wonderful and finally salsas that have flavor and spice it keeps you wanting more”

“The pastries are the best! And by far I already had 2 cakes made from here, and came out perfect. And affordable!!”

“great cheeesesteak and super friendly staff!”

“Just ordered pizza for the first time from Hawthornes. I’m from NY and haven’t been able to find good pizza around here. This pizza was absolutely delicious! I’m so happy I found this place!”

“Excellent food, service, with cozy large booths and darker lighting so you can’t see how many calories you’re consuming ;). The food was brought to the table in lightning speed, and the server was very friendly. The beef tacos, guacamole, guac salads, queso, refried beans, sour cream, salsa picante, and quesabirria all were very fresh and served hot unless it was a cold item of course. We went all out and ordered the fried ice cream & xango (fried cheesecake) for the grand finale, and both were equally delicious! Thanks 3 Reyes for a great 1st time experience, we will be back soon!”

“I went to the buffet for military appreciation night and everything was perfect. Thank you very much. The only thing wrong was that I saw two of my relatives in there taking advantage of the free meal. They had never been in the military. It makes me sick to see lowlife scum of the earth dishonor vets like that. Please start making people show their credentials before serving them.”

“Favorite restaurant! Always consistent- food, quality, and service. Thank you!”

“Everyone who works here is always so kind!!! Definitely my fav!!!!”

“This place is great for lunch and dinner. Best wings I've had anywhere in the area. Service is always awesome. Sometimes they are busy, but always do their best to accommodate any requests. One of the most comprehensive selections of taps. Really great place! Sit in the bar area. Barbara is the best!”

“from pennsylvania food is awesome coleslaw 2nd best next to mom stopped twice you will see me again next year”

“Nothing negative to say. The cocktails, appetizer and entrees were SPOT ON, The food and service was 5 stars. Diego was the most profession and comical server. We only live 2 miles away and have found a diamond in the rough. We will definitely make this spot our regular date night!!”

“I had a delicious mix grill which is the beef is very tender and the chicken very juicy and tasty and everything was great top to the point Absolutely we will be back I highly recommend it”

“I love my neighborhood Culver's in Mooresville (it's the closest to where I live). This restaurant has one of the best fish sandwiches I've ever eaten! Culver's is counter services but a step up from other chain fast food. This location is clean, with good service and excellent food. Kudos to the manager.”

“My family and I received superb service. Bonus: The food was delicious 😊.”

“Amazing cocktail bar with the best service!”

“Great food and atmosphere. Creative cocktails and local beer.”

“Happened by with a friend, usually it’s packed but today only a few cars so we went in. Staff friendly, we were seated pretty quickly. First impression was wow there’s a lot of choices here. Sushi looked great , I didn’t try it but my friend did, she said spot on! Tried the “choose your raw items and chef cooks it in front of you”. It was fun. Food all hot and tasty, staff accommodated our needs very well. Will come back as my family is coming from Vermont next week !”

He is just covering at this store now but still offering an excellent performance. I hope this review gives some insight to their managers and appreciate his hard work.”
