“You won’t find a more tender-beef, hand-pattied cheeseburger these days for the price you’ll pay than at Stanley Kitchen. The whole sandwich is stellar, also boasting a big fresh bun, melty cheese and tasty toppings like chili or slaw or tomato, tailored to your liking. The meat-and-three plates are excellent too: big portions, fresh food and good prices.“
“Today was my first visit to Pops. It wasn't an ordinary visit because out of incredible compassion, they invited my family into their restaurant for a bereavement dinner for the loss of my granddaughter.Their food was outstanding, the servers caring and attentive. Everything was spot on.I hope to go back again. Please chose Pops for a meal!“
“What a fun place to eat! Earlier this week was visiting a local company and they suggested the Webb Custom Kitchen for lunch. It was so cool what they have done with the place to keep the history alive in the building.It did take the course of the meal to really appreciate all of the small little details that they put in to the place to create that atmosphere. The most obvious were the old production equipment pieces that were on display in the "lobby" and throughout the restaurant. Also, it was neat to see old black and white movies being run on the stage during lunch. One of the subtle details was the framed artwork that, when you looked closely, were actual film frames from movie reels. Another was the music playing in the background. For the duration of our lunch all that played in the background were movie scores. It was fun to attempt to be the 1st to correctly recognize which movie that music was associated with. The servers, dressed as theatre ushers, were also eager to provide a brief history of the place and they used terms that made you think more of a movie theater versus a restaurant.Now for the food. It was tasty and my best comment that I can make is that I hope for the opportunity to return for there were multiple items that I wanted to try. Personally I got the Turkey and Brie cheese sandwich with the bacon soup. Each of the lunch menu items were simple (Turkey & cheese sandwich, Reuben, Chicken sandwich, etc...) but with a little bit of something different included which changed the taste from what you normally expect. They have done a great job in creating a lunch menu that was fun to try their take on classic selections.If close to the area it is worth stopping in for the food alone, but what I really enjoyed was the entire atmosphere and just very complimentary to how they have taken an iconic building and preserved the history in a fun way. You should not be disappointed.“
“Our favorite place to go for breakfast! You cant say bagels in our house without the kids grabbing their shoes and saying lets go to Bagel Brothers. I lived up north for many years and honestly these bagels are the real thing! You can follow them on facebook to see the staff having fun and the weekly creamy cheese special flavor.Kid-friendliness: Fast paced high energy staff makes a place where our little ones can be themselves.“
“What a cute family owned restaurant! Inside consists of many tables and booths. The hostess told us that we could seat ourselves and menus were already at the table. We came in wanting breakfast! Our waitress was friendly and funny the entire time. All of the entrees were delicious! We ordered French toast, a western omelette with a fruit cup & turkey sausage, the pop special which came with eggs, French toast, bacon and hash browns! We love coming here for breakfast!“
“We had an amazing meal at Chillfire. The service was great from the moment we entered until we left. Especially our waiter. The food came out fast and was delicious. The restaurant was beautiful. Restrooms were clean. Everything was perfect. I was afraid there would be a long wait given it was a weekend evening, but the restaurant is much bigger than it looks from the outside. There were plenty of available tables and staff, even at 6 pm on a Saturday. We had the poutine appetizer which was very good. It was piled high with toppings and piping hot. I was a bit surprised that the fries seemed more like McDonald's fries than the ones cut in house but they were cooked nice and crispy and worked well with the gravy. For entrees I ordered the Oak Island, which was a 6 oz filet with scallops and side of creamed spinach. My husband ordered the prime rib that was one of the specials that day. He was going to order the queen cut but the waiter said it was only $4 difference for the king, so why not go big. He chose the potato hash as his side. Everything was delicious! The scallops were cooked perfectly, as was the filet. It had a perfect sear while still being a perfect medium through the center. The bacon vinaigrette was a perfect sauce, sweeter than I expected from a vinaigrette which I thought complimented the scallops well. The prime rib was a huge cut and cooked to be a perfect rare. I'm not usually one to order rare myself but being prime rib, it seems to be the way to go. I tried a few bites and it was very tasty. Especially with the au jus to dip it in. The potato hash was a great choice for fhe. The sauce was so creamy and the portion was huge. We both left miserably full but enjoyed every minute of it. I'm already planning my return trip!“
“On this gorgeous Good Friday, we came for early Easter brunch and everything was top notch!Two words: cannoli pancakes 5/5Thank me later!The breakfast tacos, sweet potato fries *drizzled with honey *, mimosa and blush (prosecco and strawberry puree) cocktails were all fantastic. The decor is charming, the place was hopping and our server was lightning quick. I am already looking forward to our next visit.“
“I picked up my mom from CLT and I wanted a quaint little farm to table place... This was absolutely perfect. We sat outside in the back. They have a very unique decor inside and fun patio/outdoor entertainment area.The food and drinks were incredible.My mom got the seasonal dumplings 6 total, 3 of each type with a blonde local beer. Delicious!I got the seasonal winter gnocchi in a light sauce with the duck which is probably the best gnocchi I've ever had. Then, got the black pepper butter cream cake and it was good but more dense than expected. The most recommended and popular desert is the sticky toffee cake though.Parking: Parking is street parking.Wheelchair accessibility: They have a ramp to enter the restaurant.“
“It was a phenomenal find on our way drive between Shelby and charlotte at Gastonia.Great food- vegan, vegetarian, great flavor and taste. Small outside seating accommodated our four legged family member. They offered dog bowl and water.It’s good relaxing environment to enjoy nice food and service.“
“We waited about 10 minutes at our table before being greeted. We paid less than $50 for two people and that was with drinks so we didn't complain and the food was amazing. We'll give it another try in a few weeks to see if the service greetings gets better.“
“The food was delicious- large portions so even had leftovers to take home. Was a very busy Saturday night and with the restaurant recently opening, service was slow to get food but attentive staff so although it took a hour to get the food it was worth it. We will be back for sure with the hopes that the time to get food from time of ordering is a bit less. Also a little noisy for us but again the place was packed.“
“Excellent Excellent!! food , friendly folks, relaxing atmosphere, family vibe, this is not fast food, just what we've been looking for, great food at a decent price not far from home. Real folks, real food. We will definitely be going back.“

“Great service and even tastier food!!!Burgers are always on point!! Probably the best onion rings I’ve ever had!!If you haven’t tried them then you should and trust me you will not be disappointed..Get there early if you can cause it so good they sell out fast!!“
“I absolutely love the pharmacy staff and the staff on the restaurant side , but 13 dollars for a cheeseburger basket with drink and fries is absolutely ridiculous. You can go to any other restaurants and town and get a better meal for that price. The hamburger patties are not even hand patties they are frozen box brand. I will no longer be spending my money on anything to eat here. The owner really needs to rethink his prices. also the menu doesn't reflect the new price either.“
“Friday night my husband and I decided to kick off the weekend by trying a Chopped Champion's food truck. If you're on the hunt for the ultimate burger and sandwich, you can find it here. We arrived shortly before they were done for the night. As a result, they were sold out of their fish sandwiches. I was bummed because it's the only thing I wanted to try. My husband ordered the Double Bacon Swiss. I'm not really into spicy food, but I'm also the type who doesn't like ordering the exact same thing, so I opted for the Hot Chicken Smash.I'm not a chef, a cook, a baker, or a grill master. When I take a bite of food, I can't readily tell you every single ingredient I taste. That being said, my perspective on this burger and chicken sandwich won't have tons of detail. In a nutshell, the food was a chef's kiss emoji, a praise hands emoji, and the fire emoji. Seriously. After we both took one bite of the burger and one bite of the chicken sandwich, we agreed to split them because they were both sooo good. This is what I expect to taste when I'm feeling like a burger or sandwich at a nice restaurant. Flavor-filled, high-quality food. I can't tell you much more about it, other than the burger had lots of bacon on it and the chicken sandwich was HOT. My husband said it had "some kick." But I don't typically eat spicy food so my mouth was on fire. And I still ate all of my half because it was just that good. After the first bite, I completely forgot about being bummed out because they sold out of fish. If we're ever within a drivable distance from this truck and hungry, we'll return and try more of their menu.“
“I really enjoy there fried rice and they have some amazing fish and wings. The food is season very well not to much and not to little. This is one of my favorite restaurants now. And the prices are reasonable.Vegetarian options: Vegetable fried rice they let you customize your rice.“
“My family tried dinner here and we were not disappointed! We all love Greek food. I ordered the Gyro Platter it came with 2 sides and a nice warm soft pita. Lots of meat and tasty. My sides were Fried Okra and Homemade Onion Rings. My mom and sister had the Chicken Souvlaki on a Bed of moist rice and roll plus 2 sides. They tried fries and potatoe salad. Both of them really enjoyed it as well. Definitely will be back.“
“I’m a pickle regular! Honestly I’m there at least 3 nights a week. I love Ruby, Kelsey, Shelby and Andy! The bartenders are beyond amazing and make great drinks! But Andy is the best barback I’ve ever seen! He’s all over the place and work extremely hard to make sure the place runs well! He’s really cool to talk to! Over the last two years he’s really made my entire friend group feel known and appreciated at The Pickle!“
“Haven't been in this location for a while. They switched it up to more pool hall on one side and dark bar on the other. Service was good. People are super friendly. The food was good. Nice location for the ballpark too.Parking: The location has limited spots, but the city has created parking along the street. I'm not sure if there is a cost as we got a spot in the lot.“
“So good! Food was great, cappuccino was delicious, and everyone was very sweet to me and my best friend. It was small but they were accommodating for her 7 month old. Would definitely come here again! (Prices are also very good, but we ordered a lot of food!).“
“I love the food and the environment. My server Emily was very nice and respectful. My server made sure she checked on us often even though the place was full of people.Parking: It was not hard to find parking even though the place had alot of customers.Kid-friendliness: Everyone was friendly and respectful. Me and my family was very appreciative and we really enjoyed our meal. My grandson was with us and he really enjoyed his dinner and the lady servers.“
“Cool spot with good food. The beer selection was not to much taste, but they have a lot of beers to choose from. I like dark beers... Porters, Stouts etc... and they didn't have any on tap for my visit. I had the shrimp and grits. Decent, but far from the best I've had. Service was friendly and welcoming. I'll be back for sure.“
“The food at The Foundry is good but very pricy. One small cup of soup was $16.00. The beef grinder sandwich was blah and lacked flavor and condiments. The fish and chips was good but, again, pricy for the 2 small pieces of fish on the plate. There are other restaurants in this area that are just as good or better and much less expensive. We probably won't go back to The Foundry for lunch due to the cost but the service was very good and the atmosphere is very light and airy.“
“Found this little gem by accident. Trust me, you only need 1 pancake. Their bacon is quality too. Yummy food, fantastic service, clean, friendly (staff and patrons) and comfortable atmosphere. Hoping to create a builld your own omlette with grilled chicken, but we didn't ask this morning. Thanks y'all!“
“We loved this place! When I went in to ask if they had an outdoor area where we could sit with our dog, they happily opened up the covered patio just for us. The food and drinks were great and came quickly (I highly recommend the shrimp and grits!) and the service was friendly, efficient and impeccable. We’d love to return if we’re in the area again!“
“Waffle House has the BEST coffee consistently at any location you visit. They also seem to be the only place to get eggs scrambled soft, with cheese. Conversations with those working is always interesting and if you are lucky, someone has good tunes playing on the jukebox. Day or night, it's the place to grab good food and a good time.Kid-friendliness: yepWheelchair accessibility: yep“
“We had excellent service on Thursday 12/14. We had 7 people at the high top tables in the bar. The waitress was awesome and didn't miss a beat. The food was good for the price. We got the filet special. The music was extremely loud and we couldn't hear each other talk. It could have been taken down a notch or two and still be loud. But they dud seat us in the bar. I just felt bad for my dad who has hearing aids. I will be back and wished I could remember the waitresses name because I would love to request her again“
“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.“
“Such an interesting place. I can't decide if its cute and charming or old and gross LOL. So I am just going to go with cute! I'm sure it has looked the same forever but now it is retro and pretty cool. The service is good but a little slow. The menu is varied so no matter what you want they probably have it. I like the burgers and the spicy cheese curds the best so far!“
“I ate here last weekend! I got 10 honey bbq wings and the California burger with crumbled bleu cheese instead of jack cheese and sweet potato fries. The entire meal was fantastic! Didn’t hurt my stomach later and was easily digestible and tasted fantastic! The atmosphere was awesome and so was the service! Will definitely recommend!Parking: Decent amount of parking! I was parked not far from the door and it was a Friday evening! Within walking distance to other bar and more parking.Kid-friendliness: There were lots of children in there but nothing too wild. Seemed to be a fit for every demographic of people. I saw all ages in there a“
“I've been a patron of the CDA since I can remember. My father was a Technician at the old CDA MILL when I was a young kid . I would help my dad work on old yarn knitters and when they would order breakfast I would go next door and get it. Always been a great friendly environment. GOOD BUSINESS AND GREAT FAMILY.!!!!“
“Update 02/12/24: (Takeout advice. See below). According to Google reviews, I posted the last update in 2022. Unfortunately, Google does not allow multiple reviews from a User so one has to update the initial review. Why this is is a bit of a mystery as one’s views can change over time.I’m happy to say that my opinions on Joey’s hasn’t really changed over time. They still serve the best Pizza in Denver, NC now that their main competitor, Pomodoros, closed. Pomodoros closed not because the food or service was lacking but simply because they could not staff their kitchen. What a terrible commentary on our time.So, where are we today? This update is simply to advise customers that if ordering takeout, no matter the time you specify for pickup or if just ordering ahead, arrive at least 10 minutes before the time you are told the food will be ready.Personally I try to get there a minimum of 15 minutes early and chill at the bar so I can get the food as it comes out of the kitchen. Trust me, if you arrive at the specified pickup time, your food has been cooling for 10 minutes, maybe more.I am not changing my rating but post this as an FYI for those who take heed of reviews.—/////——I’ve written about Joey’s before which would usually rate 4 stars from me. It is my family’s go-to place for pizza, specifically, Grandma’s pizza which is Detroit-style pizza, a rectangular, thick pizza with your choice of toppings, a goodly amount of cheese, and sauce. (Note, try to eat it fresh; it does not hold all that well overnight).But this review is not about the food tonight (skip down 3 paragraphs for why I am giving 5 stars this time) except to say we had the Amberjack special, a wrap, and the usual for my son, a chicken quesadilla.I don’t typically order fish when I go out and on the dinner menu at home, we were supposed to have salmon but Brian L talked me into trying the Amberjack. Go figure.Amberjack is a mild fish, often cut as a thick steak. Tonight’s serving was diced into large cubes with tri-color tortellini, spinach and a creamy garlic and Grand Marnier sauce. Very good so if you go sometime and see it as a dinner special, give it a try.But, I am burying the lead. Tonight’s 5-star rating goes to Brian. This guy is from Brooklyn, Italian, and maybe the best waiter in Denver.Why? He’s engaging, does a great job of explaining dishes, entertainingly served up by his Brooklyn accent, and most importantly, he dutifully clears away empty dishes and the usual litter of stuff from a meal (paper straw sleeves, etc.) WITHOUT being asked.This bears repeating and LISTEN UP every single other server in my little village of Denver, NC: Your normal duty as a server should always include taking away the empty plates and other detritus of a meal. Allowing all this stuff to just pile up and clutter the table during and after the meal is annoying to many and directly impacts my tip to you. Failing in this very traditional act of serving, you are failing as a good server.In my experience, there are a lot of just ok servers in Denver, poorly trained and lacking anything like a professional demeanor. Sure, we have many friendly servers, but very, very few really good ones. And what separates the professional from the friendly are really taking care of your customers which always includes clearing away the table. It is a very small but crucial step, ignored by too many unless asked.I start at 20% and either deduct or add to the tip depending on the overall experience. I am happy to report that Brian’s tip went north.Well done, Brian.“
“I'm not gonna lie. When I come to the south, it's my all-time favorite. So you know I'm a little biased. I just want you to know that before I give my usual stamp of approval. The reason I give a great rating every time, though, is because it's always good. It's hard not to like something that always tastes good, is presented for, and is always, always, always served by people who do a good job. I have to be honest, I'm rarely going to complain. Yes, they mess up. They forgot my ham and cheese in my eggs, but they did put it in my hash browns. I asked for both, and they got it in one. As soon as she saw it was wrong, she had the cook add it. It's not your regular restaurant. It's like nothing else you can eat at.“
“I am giving 4 stars because my dine in experience is always amazing I ordered Togo food at 6 pm Wednesday night after my shift and it was absolutely terrible everything was burnt and my fries were missing the Togo lady and guy were amazing even tho I had to wait a hour and 30 mins for my food . Please double check Togo food because my food was absolutely terribly overcooked . I ordered medium and got extra well everything“
“We were out for a motorcycle ride and I Googled Best Burgers near me. Chuckwagon Grill came up. It did not disappoint. I had the regular cheeseburger basket and my husband had the deluxe. The burgers were delicious although my husband's was well done and he had asked for medium. He still enjoyed it. They give you a mountain of fries with the baskets. My burger was missing the onion, but it was still good. My only real complaint was that all of the inside tables were dirty. I used some of my unsweet tea to desticky ours. We would go back, if in the neighborhood again.“
“Excellent food, fast and friendly service, prices are decent. I really don't have anything negative to say about my first time eating here! I got the southern philly and my boyfriend got the fried pickle philly. Both were amazing and fresh but his was delectable, I'll get the fries pickle philly next time. My friend got the buffalo chicken pita and it was stuffed full of chicken and a delicious looking sauce. Their fries were a lot like cookout fries (which is a good thing imo) and I got the cucumber salad which was refreshing and delicious and also fun alternative for the usual side of fries. I will be returning here in the future!“

“This place is AWESOME! They have the best wings around here Try the Strawberry Hot, it’s so good The Gold Rush, Honey Gold, Cancun Ranch They are all delicious. The jalapeño poppers are as well. Great atmosphere and friendly staff Try it… you will go back again… and again!“

“Consistent, fresh, delicious, great atmosphere and service. The turkey burger is excellent. Not sure what they season it with but it is fantastic. Shakes are great and home made banana pudding is dreamy! Scott, the manager, expects nothing but tip top service and he treats his employees well and it shows. This is a must place.“
“Even if I don't stop in and get something to eat just seeing the sign( Mutzies) it takes me back quite a few years back when Mutzies were in bigger city My late Dad first took me there to eat breakfast and it was some good food and as I look back it was some of the greatest moments I had with (pop's) and now day's I'm having some awesome memories with my wonderful mom we just stopped in yesterday and got us a hotdog and yup it was good as always and the wonderful Ladies that was working made it feel great as always only thing missing was pop's. Thanks Mutzies and Dad I miss you more and more everyday and I cherish the memories“
“My husband and I stopped in for breakfast. I had the livermush and gravy biscut with eggs. It was good fresh food .The tables were too close together, that's the only complaint I have . The waitresses were very friendly and attentive .Good “
“I hosted my daughters bridal shower at Heirloom on 1/13/24. They did an amazing job from the start when I contacted David to start planning, to menu selection and all of the fine details. Chef Chris Davis did an outstanding job executing an upscale authentic Italian menu. The staff were terrific , on point and attentive. Everything was delicious and so well received by my guests, even the Italian New Yorkers approved! My entire experience was easy, seamless, fun and delicious. Thanks!“
“I gave this place 4 stars, the atmosphere is real mellow. I had the Ashley chicken. It came with fluffy and lovey mash potatoes & gravy. Alana was our waitress, she had a heart warming smile and OUTSTANDING personality the entire time since we were seated. I'll be back soon“
“It was a great experience having dinner at this location!! Loved the fried chicken and the sides, a lot of options to choose from the buffet. They have pretty good healthy options like salads and fruits. Desserts were good too!! Our server was very helpful.“
“It's the best breakfast around..The waitstaff is amazing..The food is absolutely delicious and cooked perfectly to your taste..If you leave hungry it's your own fault..lol..Marco is awesome, he's there on Saturdays..Brooklyn is there on week days..Awesome atmosphere and great for kids also...Give them a try, you'll be glad you did..Texas Farmhouse Omelet is rocking..Best country ham around too..“
“My husband and I went there just to try the food not knowing that this was a bar and grill where everybody Gathers after work felt a little bit out of place because we're the only African Americans in there LOL but they made us feel very comfortable in there and the food was wonderful the people were great they were very welcoming I enjoyed it my husband enjoyed it he loves the burger a good burger and the burger he tried was a dirty Burger oh my God this burger was huge the food was wonderful even the drinks , they were okay overall we will be back again and a big UPS to Mr Jason he was the cook and he came out and greeted us and made us feel welcome thank you and will be back again “
“I really miss Showmars since we don't live in the area anymore. We stop by almost every time we are in the Charlotte metro area. The flounder is excellent and the pita burger is also a favorite.The Denver location has a friendly staff and a clean location.“
“This is one of my favorite places to eat. They have the best chicken piccata. I cannot find a better one elsewhere, and believe me, I’ve tried. Their salads are cold and crisp. The bleu cheese dressing is to die for. The service is always fast and friendly. The interior is clean but dated. If you’re in Gastonia, give them a try!Kid-friendliness: They have kid friendly items on the menu.“
“The food here is always on point! My favorite dish is the Texas Bacon Egg and Cheese melt with extra hasbrowns and extra cheese on said hashbrowns. They always cook to perfection and every waitress/cook is always serving with a kind and lovely energy! I def recommend for a quick and easy bite after a long night!“
“I'll post reviews about Pete's every day if I need to. This is the best place in Stanley to get something to eat. I absolutely love their food. I haven't had anything from there that wasn't delicious. Hungry? Go to Pete's!!!“
