“Great little restaurant..great service and food..went twice while we were here for the balloon festival..10/14 & 10/15..“

“Well, I tried it for the first time. The chicken breast white meat was not ready. So I had to choose something else. Then I went again recently. The chicken was not ready. You would have had to wait. I didn't let that discourage me so I ordered a Perch sandwich for the first time. And it had a pretty good taste to it When you get up to the window, you see a lot of young people working in the establishment.So they were very friendly, like I said, I won't let that discourage me.It's a new business“

“Great food and service with awesome owners and staff!“

“Our waitress Rachel was so friendly and genuine in her conversation. We didn't feel like just another table to be served. There was a teen birthday party near us and the place was hopping on a beautiful day in the 70's so it was pretty loud. Padded buffers inside the booths would likely help with this. They were out of the first2 things we tried to order so that was disappointing. We were seated at 1:15 so you might want to get there earlier for access to full menu. It's good to know if you have someone with mobility challenges: there were 2 handicap spaces fairly close to the front but all others were abit away. There is no way to drop off an elderly person fairly close to the door. Options are either quite a few stairs OR a long ramp. If there are other options, I didn't see it. The food was fresh and delicious and the menu was creative and thoughtful as compared to other places in the area. We were celebrating a birthday and received a thoughtful card but no discount or free dessert as with other places. Brunch specials change each week and they all sounded good.“

“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!“

“SO GOOD. Pineapple paloma was a delicious in cocktail to start the night. I wanted one of everything on the menu but we shared burrata, deviled eggs, pork belly buns and Brussels. holy cow everything was AMAZING. service was fantastic. Jovian was very attentive, knowledgeable and friendly but not overbearing. we will definitely be back!“

“This was our first visit. Staff were very friendly, service was efficient, and food was hot and fresh! We will definitely go back again.“

“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!!“

“Wonderful space! Melanie was a fantastic Hostess & made booking so easy! Food was delicious! Highly recommend for an intimate gathering! Thank you!“

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

“Food was delicious and the service was amazing! Our waitress did a wonderful job and the food came very quickly. The staff was also very helpful full when we had issues with our boat. Thank you very much for all your help.“

“I’m pretty sure it is under new management. Whenever I stop there for breakfast to get my liver mush, egg, cheese, slice of tomato on a bun, it is always delicious. Service is fast, everyone behind the counter is always friendly even when they are busy. On Wednesdays they offer choices of fish sandwich or fish combo plates that are reasonably priced and will satisfy your appetite. I definitely recommend if you are in the area.“

“Love sitting outside on their patio as the weather warms up! My daughter and I each got a pizza - hers was more traditional while I got the pesto and prosciutto and they were both delish (definitely had to take the leftovers home). My husband got a burger and said it was great… and the fries were amazing. Great local place!“

“Had a mobile order & also had a <$4 store voucher card from a previous visit to Denver where I ordered something and they ran out before filling my order.

I opted to use it today, when it was scanned it triggered as if it hadn’t been activated. I let Jose know I would be happy to pay for my item myself instead (no biggie, I had the card and figured I wouldn’t waste it.) Jose was very kind and friendly and said “No worries, we will take care of it! After all you did get it for a reason.”

Such a pleasant experience and going above & beyond. Thank you Jose!“

“A fun place! Good food! Good Shag Dj tonight!“

“We had the opportunity to celebrate my brother’s birthday at Flock. The team at Flock. is top notch. The service, the food, the atmosphere was all wonderful. We had a variety of food and everything was terrific. I cannot recommend this enough!“

“I’ve been going to the 29 grills since they’ve opened and all I can say is this is the best one yet so far not saying the other ones aren’t the best (because their all the best) but I’ve been coming for about 3 or 4 years now and the owner has made it over the top with this one everything from the host the service and the food is overall amazing we came got tender a salad and a bacon cheese burger and a BLT and sides etc well when I tell you this always hits the spot they know how to make it on point and everything when I say this a 10/10 I did overhear some customers asking about the glass plates for lunch and the waiter was explaining to them about them and the people were just shaking their heads because they didn’t get glass plates or real silverware well when you eat from a 29 GRILL it’s not supposed to be a steak house or anything like that it’s called a GRILL for a reason be happy with what you get and don’t pitch a fit don’t eat there if you care about what you eat on because at the end of the day food is food and your still gonna process it the way everyone else does but overall GIVING THIS PLACE A 100/10 if I could but 10/10 will do for now.“

“My wife and I were in town over night, we like to dine in the local establishments over the same basic chain restaurants. First off our server was so nice, welcoming, and informative, we chose to have an early dinner the place wasn’t to busy, but the punctuation with refills, the privacy during conversations I couldn’t have asked for a better waitress. The food was phenomenal! I chose the Hot Honey Pecan Crusted Salmon, my wife got the Mushroom Asiago Chicken, both meals were perfect with our wines. I’d 100% recommend, and I hope to make a trip back down sometime soon!“

“Each meal is made with lots of 🩷! Served by fun & friend staff! Hands down, it’s Best place to eat in Iredell County. Enjoy breakfast, lunch of dinner! Cocktails and appetizers! There’s something hung for everyone. Best Burgers in the 🌎“

“Love the atmosphere at Big Al’s! The bartenders are friendly and attentive. The Saturday night DJ rocks. Wish they had a live music night too. The food is decent though the change from a warm beer cheese dipping sauce to some cold, hard cheese for appetizers is a big NO.“

“This was the best Bistro experience of any Courtyard I’ve ever stayed in! Tara and the whole staff were so incredibly nice and accommodating. There is a wide variety of seating as well as an additional lounge next to it. I stayed here for a long weekend and going to the Bistro every morning was definitely the highlight of my stay.“

“I recently had breakfast at Zander's Bistro for the first time. It was very good. I highly recommend it! Very friendly staff.“

“Great Food and awesome people!“

“its the new local Cheers, great regulars, everybodies friends and cheap beer is the best part. Pool table and a few games. Family friendly“

“10 out of 10 really recommend“

“Casual diner type setting. 3 of us went around noontime and were seated immediately. I had read the great reviews about their waffles (which I love) and placed my order, but was told by the server that their waffle maker was broken :( . Ordered the French Toast which was great. Others in the party had pancakes and a Ruben and loved them. Will be back to try waffles.“

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

“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.“

“Always a stop on our trips to Lake Norman. Great food as always. Already can’t wait for our next trip back to Mooresville.“

“put sauce and flavor on thr wings I pd extra for“

“Great service, great food, beautiful view sitting outside. The seating is a little congested, even outside but it’s better outside than inside. They sometimes have live music here. Only issue we had was some other customers who made unnecessary & disrespectful comments, while also not minding their own business when we were just trying to eat our food & enjoy the music. Nothing on the restaurant at all. The restaurant was great, but the atmosphere was not welcoming from the other customers who came to sit around us later in the night.“

“Great place to hear some live music. Great staff, Food & Drinks.. Come check it out sometime soon..“

“Wow! My hunt for the best Smash Burger in North Carolina has ended. Monday night is half price smash burgers , the freedom burger is my favorite, and they donate $1for each burger sold to the Freedom Fund which helps veterans tremendously ! This scratch kitchen sports tavern is fantastic. 48 giant televisions and a giant HD projector makes this an ideal place to watch your favorite sporting event! Especially the Super Bowl! They are giving away prizes each quarter of the game and a lucky guest will win free wings for a year, and wow the wings are phenomenal. The service is consistently excellent, and they have food and drink specials , and an excellent draft beer selection. What an amazing dining destination!

Vegetarian options: They can customize anything to meet your dietary needs , just be clear about what you need.

Dietary restrictions: This place excels at meeting the needs of the guest . Just be clear about what your specific needs are, and you will have an amazing dining experience

Parking: Lots of parking , clean and beautiful area.

Kid-friendliness: Super kid friendly , the kids meals area great price and come with lots of food and a fresh baked cookie. Definitely one of the best restaurants for feeding kids. Excellent quality ingredients .

Wheelchair accessibility: Definitely wheelchair accessible, easy n comfortable place.“

“I have been here before but it has been quite a while but this was the first time bringing my mom. Very fun decor (nascar and football themed) We sat inside the bus located inside the restaurant which had little mini TV’s playing kids movies. Very fun. I ordered the BBQ plate which included 2 sides (Mac-n-cheese & baked beans) not your typical Mac-n-cheese - like curly pasta noodles and white cheddar cheese. Baked beans with yummy with onions & bits of bbq in them. The flavor of the BBQ sauce is good. I’m not a vinegar based girl so it was nice to have another option to dip my BBQ in. Husband said the ribs were seasoned well & not dry. Waitress was friendly and attentive. We will definitely be back!“

“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!!“

“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.“

“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 recently had Mi Amichi cater a dinner for our daughter's wedding - cannot tell you how many guests raved about the food and the service on site! The meal was fantastic and the portions very generous. Genuine Italian, nothing commercial. Working with them to arrange the catering was a breeze. Can't say enough about this place. Rare to get tis kind of quality nowadays. To Nick and the staff at Mi Amichi - THANK YOU!“
