“I had the Phoenix Burger and it was absolutely delicious! Highly recommend!“

“Love this little place. Just got the barbecue plate. Couldn't eat it all. So much good food. My belly said yummy ?“

“I eat here atlease once a week. and everything is great. food is awsome. service is fantastic. if your in or around stanley you need to try this place its great.“

“The food and service were EXCELLENT!!!“

“Overall great dining experience on an explorative family outing. The only consideration was the dessert. The Banana pudding while served up in a giant goblet of a dish was 95% cream whip. A great Banana pudding in most opinions should have either banana or cookie or both in every bite.“

“The vibe here is amazing! I love a double entendre so walking in to see a sign that says “meat here” with a giant arrow instantly gives me the giggles! The multicolored decor and cool artwork made it hard to do anything but keep smiling. As soon as we’re seated our waitress says “I love your earring and all your jewlery” and I was smitten. I took my jacket off right as she was brining our food. “I love your tattoos” she says and I’m falling in love with this place. The cheesin steak sandwich is smothered in cheese, the wings are crispy, our appetizers came out fast and hot, and the atmosphere was great. I was having such a good time I didn’t even mind the watered down, chunkless blu cheese. You won’t either I promise! My husband and friends notified the waitress it was my 29th birthday to which she replied “29 would have never guessed your 29!” and I’m a little shocked. The thing is it was 13th 29th birthday so I reply “ and how old did you think I was?” I’m expecting a 35 or 36…. She says “24!” I laughed so much and said “I’m actually 42” and it was her turn to be shocked. She actually insisted I pull out my ID and that’s when I knew this lunch date was a Flirtatious Fork 5 star “Marry Me” good! ❤️ the food, the vibe, the service, the drinks (get the emerald godness, it’s amazing!) 💔 having to leave and knowing there isn’t a groovy beast near me! If im ever in Gastonia again I’ll go back!“

“Food and service is excellent. The value is great for the amount of food you get. Sara L was polite and very attentive. The calamari was a huge portion and enough for 4 people as an appetizer. Every time we come here we leave happy and full and with some leftover for the next day. Highly recommend“

“Quite a strange name of the place. Pelicans are avian of temperate weather zones. Snowballs are typically in a colder climate zone. So .. Mixing the two gives it a whimsical avant garde atmosphere. The kids love it. It's good.. It's a happy time and place. You must come here. Oh yes I dare say you must.“

“10/10 Highly recommend. Great food, great people and great prices, won’t be the last time I visit“

“Food is always excellent tried the Chicken Deluxe Sandwich the tomato juice jumped out the sandwich...juicy has a great taste omg A MUST TRY!!!“

“The sourdough melt with grilled onions, mushrooms, and real cheddar cheese is to die for. Even better than a butter burger. Double meat takes it up that much more. The chocolate custard is also delicious. Better than anyone else's fast food ice-cream, including Dairy Queen.“

“Cannot express enough how wonderful this place is. The atmosphere is fantastic, and the food is out of this world. Seriously, do not skip out on this place. We cannot wait to come back! Our waitress was so sweet and helpful with telling us what was the most recommended. Absolutely LOVE this place!!“

“The chicken tenders and Mac cheese were simply delicious! Great service too! A food truck with quality and tasty options! 😋“

“fantastic service. always fast and hot.“

“Fresh Chef in Denver NC is an amazing dining experience. From the exceptional service to the highest quality of food you will be treated to a wonderful meal! We use their catering service often at Pursuit Church and we have always been greatly satisfied.“

“If you're a fan of classic comfort food, BrightStar is an absolute must-visit. Their burgers are simply outstanding—perfectly cooked with a juicy, flavorful patty that's always fresh and topped with just the right amount of melt-in-your-mouth cheese. The buns are soft and toasted to perfection, holding everything together while adding a nice little crunch.

But the real star of the show? The cheese tots. Crispy on the outside, warm and gooey on the inside, they’re smothered in a rich, cheesy goodness that makes every bite a little bit of heaven. It's the kind of side dish that could easily steal the spotlight from the burger, but together, they create the ultimate meal.

If you're in the mood for some seriously satisfying food, BrightStar delivers every time. Highly recommend!“

“Wonderful food! Homemade desserts! Everything is so delicious! We are happy that they stay open later a few days of the week now!“

“Love the quiet vibe and the food was very tasty. Has the turkey sandwich with fruits as a side, which I must say was a breath of fresh air from the typical sides offered in America consisting of various types of fries. A little cup of assorted fruits hits the spot.“

“This is my favorite place to play pool ! The tables are always in excellent condition and everything is CLEAN ! The clientele have always been courteous and many of them I now call FRIENDS !

Our Waitress we had was horrible she never once refilled our drinks. She only took our order and delivered it to us. We did leave a tip which should go to the Manager. We will visit again just hope we have a different waitress.“
