“I cannot say enough about the staff here. We make this a weekly stop. The meat comes without sauce and you get your own choice of sauces on the table to put on your meat. The prices are reasonable, and the portions are plenty. most importantly, the quality is always high and it's consistently good.”

“I have been traveling from NC to be with my sick mother and I needed to pick up for my family and this place has been so very kind to me. A couple of times I have called an hour before I am to arrive in town and they always have my food ready fresh and hot. I appreciate the wonderful guy & girl that work the day shift. The food is so yummy! Today I had time to stop in and eat a delicious banana split and WOW!! I just love a old school diner where you can set at the counter. I highly recommend the cheeseburger and fries just so good ! Thank you to your wonderful team !!”

“Great service with smiling faces. Good was just what we needed. I don't know what they do to their chips but they are lighter and fluffier than most tortilla chips and I absolutely loved them! I got the steak and chicken fajitas, I had so much food I ate leftovers 3xs from it. It was just as good as eating it at the restaurant. Super yummy! My partner got the Chori pollo which isn't my thing but I had to try it and it was so delicious.Kid-friendliness: My 18month old happily ate from our plate. Didn't pay any attention to the kids menu bc we knew we ordered plenty of food for us all.”

“Received Backdraft BBQ as part of a complementary work appreciation and noticed there weren’t many reviews, but definitely deserving of one. The bbq had a very nice smoky flavor, yummy spicy bbq sauce, and the beans and potato salad were both tasty as well. Would try again with the full menu available.”

“The new smokie sausage link breakfast biscuit is my absolute favorite! I really hope it makes its way to the permanent menu! I get to craving this biscuit and then get sad when I've missed the window for breakfast hours. It goes so well with the cheddar rounds, just the perfect breakfast!”

“I was really shocked I got the quarter pounder with cheese . I like the QP nice big juicy burger. Well that must be a thing of the past due to economics . I swear the burger was half as thick. So does that make it an 8th burger now. So ”

“The only problem I have with Hardee’s is they should serve breakfast all day and I don’t know if that’s possible or not but I would think they would have a better business because most people I would think would rather have breakfast than the burgers they serve because you can get a burger most anywhere. (It’s breakfast for me) When you go there in the morning‘a for breakfast car’s are lined up all the way around the building and you don’t see that during lunch or dinner!!”

“Nick’s Restaurant is fantastic! Beautiful, clean environment from the table to the bathrooms. The service was great! Ask for Blake, he has a great personality and takes excellent care of his tables. The food was awesome! The chicken and waffles are delicious, but my personal favorite is the Tennessee 2 Step Sandwich. Perfectly fried chicken, fried onions, sliced jalapeños, ranch, and pimento cheese, all this makes for the perfect bite. Also ask for some blue cheese on the side, you won’t regret it.Parking: Plenty of parking all around the restaurant.Kid-friendliness: They have a kids menu, and an awesome outdoor hangout/play area. The outdoor area has a putting green and several different outdoor games for the whole family to enjoy.”

“I haven't even finished eating and I just had to give a review. I would eat anything this woman put in front of me. We had the jerk chicken and the oxtail and OMG I'm hooked. The patties are so flaky and delicious. The food comes out hot and fast. I can't wait to come back and try something different and take a jerk chicken plate to go too. This place deserves more than 5 stars.”

“Cool place to hang with friends and eclectic entertainment.A nice variety of drinks (with new ones being added throughout the year). Staff are very nice and chill.Definitely a great place to spend time with friends. But as upright and intense as a lot of bars.Had a few dishes from there, pretty tasty, and unique.”

“Super cute . Great food and coffee . Friendly service . Love their chicken salad sandwich and cinnamon rolls. It was so good I forgot to take a picture of the sandwich and I had to take some cinnamon rolls to go . Fire ?!! Definitely would visit again when in TN.”

“Absolutely LOVE this deli! Chuck and Randy are wonderful people! The food here is absolutely delicious and they have the BEST coffee I have ever drank, they have so many flavor options as well. The food is all freshly made, and the deserts are to die for!! Me and my husband stopped in for a lunch date and I’ll definitely be stopping more often. I have found my “daily diner” . I got the Ruben, it was the BEST hands down from any other I have ever tried. My husband got the club, and it was a HUGE sandwich, we also got a hot fudge cake for dessert! If you’re a coffee drinker like I am you will be impressed with Chucks skills! His coffee is better than Starbucks (cheaper too) I got the Bee’s Knees and the Peach Cordial 100% recommend if your in downtown looking for a place to grab a quick bite for lunch. And don’t forget to stop at the Cafe if you’re more of a breakfast person and say Hi to Randy!”

“These girls got it right! Food is amazing and service was impeccable!! I don’t live in the area but if I did I would eat there all the time. Thanks ladies??”

“Being an out of towner, I wanted to try a good local bagel spot. I walk in the front door, and am immediately greeted with a “welcome” and smile by Dominik. I was planning on grabbing a bagel and coffee to go, but decided to stay and eat in simply because Dominik’s vibe was so positive. He helped me decided on the Veggie Lovers bagel which turned out to be delicious, and made me a 5/5 cappuccino.”

“So I have Celiac and can’t ingest any gluten or it makes me violently ill. Before I placed my order, I called to ask about gluten free and was greeted and told she just got done quizzing the kitchen staff about gluten free items. When we ordered, I called and reminded them my order is to be gluten free. And did they SUCCEED. I even received a HAND WRITTEN gluten free menu. This has to be one of the best gluten free experiences I have had and with equally tasty food.Dietary restrictions: Very accommodating to those with Celiac Disease.”

“Service was swift and accurate for Pal's Sudden Service. Food was good. Line was long, but moved fast. Even with an estimated 30 cars between the other window and myself, my total wait time from entering que to receiving food was about 11 minutes.”
