“I dine there or take out almost every week. The best Asian food in town. Delightfully spicy (if you so choose), expertly prepared, and delicious. It's a small restaurant with a small kitchen and a family staff, so they can get a bit backed up during peak hours, but it is so worth the wait.”

“Great food. I really enjoyed the tomato basil soup. My husband liked his ribeye. Drinks were ok. Disappointed that a 20% gratuity was included on our bill when we received it. I prefer to reward service on my own rather than have it forced on me. So although we enjoyed it, we likely won’t be back. Sorry.”

“A a couple weeks ago, my sister took me to this place. She kept saying something about beaverclaws, and I wasn't exactly sure what she was talking about. But she said she wanted it to be a surprise. When we got there, it was a pretty cool place. It was nice, clean. And to be honest their bathroom was almost big as my living room. What the Outback calls the blooming onion is the Beaverclaws at Beaver Creek Bar & Grill. It's like the leaves of the onion breaded. It was wonderful. I also got a burger and some macaroni and cheese, it was pretty good. It's been so long since I've tasted burger. Beef product that tastes like BEEF. Without the all those chemicals and additives that they put in your meat at the grocery stores and stuff, to make sure the meat stays fresh. Well, this meat was fresh and awesome. The staff was very friendly. I really enjoyed Beaver Creek. I hope to go see them again soon.

Recommended

“Great food. I really enjoyed the tomato basil soup. My husband liked his ribeye. Drinks were ok. Disappointed that a 20% gratuity was included on our bill when we received it. I prefer to reward service on my own rather than have it forced on me. So although we enjoyed it, we likely won’t be back. Sorry.”

Ruby Tuesday 2003 E Dixon Blvd, Shelby American • $

“Took my wife out for our anniversary at Ruby Tuesday’s on July 14th. I ordered 1/2 rack ribs with fries and she ordered a hamburger, two salad bars, and tea. The total bill including a tip was $50.00. The Berger and salad was good, but th ribs were tough and dry and possibly left over from earlier and warmed over. I have eaten ribs before at the same place and always good.”

The afternoon shift always is. They are SUPERB. The lady there,who is so friendky and wonderful, asked me if I was in a hurry and I said no.

“Wow! What a great hamburger. I have paid $15 for burgers that were not as good. It was cooked up fresh after I ordered it and was delicious. I could tell it is good quality hamburger meat. The fries were good also, they were large crinkle cut fries .And they were fried up fresh.. A friend told me about the lemonade and I tried it. It’s the best around and I even got a free refill. I love this place..A restaurant doesn’t have to be complicated to serve great food.”

“Absolutely awesome. Price first.... pretty decent. The food, is great,b I've tried everything on the menu, and regret none of it. But the sweet tea is to die for. And the cute pocket size lady is amazing with kids. The whole staff is great with kids. P.s. They sing, the tall cook with the beard, will really send you back in time, down memory lane. Ask him to sing you a tune. He will”

Applebee's Grill + Bar 433 Earl Rd, Shelby American • $

“We've started making it a point to eat out here in Shelby, NC at least 3 - 4 times a week. The main reason is to spend more quality time together, but we decided to take in a good meal as well. We both agreed that the waitress we had was by far the best ever. The food and drinks were excellent and it wasn't very crowded because of the time, so we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and would highly recommend a visit!!!”

“There's always something there I like to eat. Fried chicken(was hoping for some chicken livers),pot roast, fried fish and shrimp, but it's hard to enjoy steak if there are no knives to cut it with. Those paper packets restaurants put utensils in are a useless waste and likely cause some of those utensils disappearances.”

Cook Out 308 Earl Rd, Shelby Fast Food • $

“Cookouts food is always good of course, delicious cheese fries with Cajun seasoning and burgers are pretty good, hot dogs good and kids like the nuggets, love their drinks with the crushed ice it’s so good
Only issue is with the broken speaker here and consistently the portions of fries are different, like sometimes a side of cheese fries will fill up the box but other times it’s like 10 fries and a dollop of cheese”
