“Great location. Plenty of places around to go. There was a 20min wait when we went around 12:30pm on a Sunday. The stuffed French toast was very good! The grits were just ok. They have queso in them and are a little too thin. I like thicker grits. Bacon was cooked very well. Biscuits were really good. My boyfriend said the gravy was good as well. It was crowded inside and a smaller place“

In fact, it's so amazing that after I've eaten there, I get some to go!! The service is impeccable as everyone working there is welcoming, friendly and knowledgeable about their products. Great place for a lunch date!! Go check them out!!“

“great bar service wonderful pig skins best queso on South side of Charlotte“

“Some of the best service I have had in Charlotte for 5 years that I've been here. Ciara and Casey make the place feel like home. Nini and nay make he kitchen taste like a cloud and heaven. The fried rice with pot roast is literally out of this world. Don't take my word for it go and taste it. They are always attentive and for a dive bar always equipped to not only handle but have the staff to get things done. I adore this place for making it feel like had somewhere to unwind when I felt the world was against me. So please check it out.“

“Very good food, sports oriented bar and restaurant“

“Had a engagement in a hour. in and out and great service“

“🍴We finally made it to FM Eatery, and let’s just say—they know how to do comfort food with a creative twist! ✨ 🍔 Flip Daddy Burger – A double-stacked local wagyu beef burger loaded with crispy bacon, house pickles, sweet onions, lusty aioli, and melty American cheese. Every bite was packed with bold flavor and the perfect balance of richness and tang. The wagyu patty was tender, the toppings brought great texture, and the sauce tied everything together beautifully. 🧇Fried Chicken & Waffle – A Southern classic, elevated. The hot honey gave it the perfect sweet heat, while the maple butter added a rich, indulgent touch. The chicken was perfectly crispy, and the waffle had a great fluffy texture—this is a dish that hits all the right notes. 🍟 Fries – Lightly crisped and well-seasoned, the ideal pairing for both meals. From the warm atmosphere to the attentive service, everything about our first visit was a hit. Whether you're craving a high-quality burger or Southern-inspired comfort food, FM Eatery delivers. Highly recommend!“

“Found this Cafe while visiting the local Dmv. Please run to this place to eat. The food and staff are fantastic. The tomato bisque soup is awesome.“

“Let's start off with the greeting from the hostess. She was very welcoming with a great personality. I believe our waitress said she was her Manager. Our waitress Marissa is one of the best waitresses I have come across. From the time we sat down until we left. Her customer service was 10/10. She engaged with my six year old daughter. Even when she was being extra talkative. She still engaged with her every time. To the point where my daughter loved talking to her every time she came to the table and walked by. She laughed and joked with her. Her conversations with my mom and I were super genuine. She took our order in a timely manner. She gave us updates while waiting for our meal. She checked on us throughout our meal. Gave us our drink refills in a timely manner. We didn't have to ask her for anything or wave her down. She was on top of it. She has the perfect personality and pays attention to her customer's. I also observed that she was the same with other customer's as well. She has the charisma to Intertwine and comfortability to talk to customer's and not at them. She cares about her customer's. She's an asset to your team. Not only will customers want to come back for your AMAZING FOOD, but for great customer service. Marissa thanks so much! From your new friends from Fayetteville.“

“Open early, great prices and awesome staff.Just found my new local breakfast spot while staying in downtown Charlotte.And just want to mention that not only was the staff attractive, they were incredibly friendly and moved at a steady pace. The food came out quick, hot and absolutely delicious and upon finishing the fine cuisine it made me want to yell, booomshakalaka.“

“We had a great time! Everyone liked the food! We had a large party and the accommodations were great! The decor was great!“

“I just had the best experience at the Lancaster SC Biscuitville! The guy that took my order, Calvin, just brightened my day. The energy he has welcoming me and saying good morning was wonderful! I honestly thought it was a recording at first. His personality it not something you witness at most businesses. Hey Calvin, if you see this post, thank you for making my day happier! You deserve a raise and recognition! 👏“

“Amazing for couples for a date night or families with kids! There’s almost always a special of some sort going on, and the food is ALWAYS top notch. 10/10 recommend. ❤️“

“Fried Chicken is the best we’ve had since moving here 17 years ago, Mac& Cheese was creamy and delicious, Sweet Potato Tots dusted with Cinnamon and Sugar were yummy and the Jalapeño Cornbread was sweet and moist with just the right amount of peppers, service was good and our sweet tea was kept filled. Absolutely no complaints, highly recommend and look forward to our next visit!“

“love Showmars good food and prices what's not to love“

“I came in today with two friends for lunch. We asked our server, Shauna for recommendations and she was spot on with the mahi mahi spinach salad. It was delicious! Shauna gave excellent service. She is very friendly, kept our drinks filled and was always there if we needed something. I will definitely be back and hopefully Shauna will be there when I do.“

“SO GOOD!! I wanted ribs tonight and Shane’s Ribs did not disappoint! The half rack was perfect. The baked beans and green beans and garlic toast were great! We have been trying various places since moving back to NC and Shane’s is a new favorite. We brought some peach cobbler home for later and it was delish!! Thank you Carlos for being so welcoming and personable!!“

“Delicious food and great service“

“I just enjoyed the old fashioned chili combo with Mac and cheese and it was fantastic. I wish I would grabbed extra napkins because it was Carolina style to perfection... And the mess that ensued reflected such - which I'm ok with! Burger tasted fresh and was super filling, at a price that is pretty darn good. 10/10 would eat here again and look forward to telling all our employees about this spot. Shout out to Angelica (or Angela it was super loud and hard to hear) on the A+ customer service.“

“Cool relaxing atmosphere nice people“

“Everything was just great“

“Update: the manager reached out to help after the employee wouldn't help. We will definitely give them another try as mistakes happen! Hopefully all the employees will offer better service in the future!
Ordered 12 strip family meal; received 10. Called to explain and they can’t help. The ideal solution would be to refund the difference, but they’re not willing to provide that kind of customer service.“

“My daughter loves the Mac and cheese this is why we go , I am not such a big fan of the rest. But my problem is , everyone I order on the Mobil app, they never put in the condiments . Last time I ordered 2 salads , and 2 kids chicken meals . No dressing or chicken sauce in the bag at all. Now my kids won’t eat . I hate to hold up the drive thru checking they bag but i guess i have to of i ever go back“
