My request: Either raise your prices to cover credit card fees, or give guests a 3% cash discount. I choose not to do business with merchants that charge me extra at the end of the transaction, especially when it's a surprise.

Amazing food! Ed is a phenomenal chef!!!…read more My partner ordered an amazing seafood pasta. The sauce was excellent! I wanted to take his plate! LOL. My meal, the Charleston Crab Cakes, was really good too (I asked that they put the creamed corn on the side -- the crab cakes will come on top of the creamed corn if you don't make a special request). But when (not if) we return, I will be ordering the seafood pasta for sure because it was that good! A friend recommended the pork chops and the burgers. The ambience is quaint and the indoor dining space is very small and cozy. There was a bit of a wait when we arrived. I recommend making a reservation if you don't want to dine outdoors. It was January so too cold for us to eat outdoors because there is no heating and the overhead fans were on! Also, please bring a little patience for parking because this restaurant is in an area of downtown with limited parking.

Stopped in while visiting from Houston. Didn't get to enjoy the brews due to work hours. However…read moreeverything else I tried was tasty. We started off with a flight of grandmas eggs which allows you to choose three different ones. My personal favorite was the Buffalo chicken which makes me want that was an appetizer next time I'm in town. The chimcherri one was okay. And not fully sure the other but it was decent. I had the Bad Henny with potato salad. Everything was tasty. My only complaint would be the bread kept sliding off. But that potato was one my favorites ever. So tasty. The rootbeer which they make was a great nonalcoholic taste. Overall seemed like a chill spot with good services. Very friendly folks. Nice spot inside and out. I look forward to trying a pizza next.

We chose the place because it was close by where we were doing business in the area. From the outside I figured your run of the mill Mexican in a strip mall . As soon as we entered and seated by the friendly host we enjoyed the day of dead decor. We settled on a citrus shrimp dish served in a cast iron dish which was different, fresh, that includes a side salad that was filled with fresh veggies and rice to accompany the shrimp with warm tortillas. The daily special margarita was excellent and tasted better than expected for a daily special. I will make the 40 minute drive to return very soon.

We will definitely be back there again whenever we are in the Mebane area. Only thing I can say in the negative was all the wait staff was huddled up in a booth staring at there phones the whole time we where there. Our waitress who took good care of us was one of those in the booth. It didn't make any difference to us but some people would think that they were just sitting there not doing anything. Also they revamped the menu. Very nice and colorful. Still highly recommended you give them a try.

This place is everything but quick.. it took us 40 minutes to get our order, the fries were cold and the rest of the food was just kinda meh. It's quite a shame given the price, I'm guessing they get away with it because there's not really a lot of options to choose from her food and drink. The only reason I'm doing a two star is because my husband said he liked the brew choice and the bread in his sandwich was good ----- Updating given recent remarks in response to my review ---- I appreciate the response to the review, however, I want to be clear that I did not state anything to the nature of referring to or expecting pricing to be in line with fast food pricing... If this is what I was seeking, we certainly would have gone elsewhere (fast food within half a mile) I can only assume someone else has made this remark to the business in the past, however, the comment on pricing specifically related to the sheer amount of food given. i.e. my husbands sandwich had very little protein on it and relied on getting filled by the bread and extra side of fries purchased.

We ordered the 1/2 order of fried banana peppers, dry rub wings, a bacon jam burger and tots. Oh! and beer! The star of the night was the banana peppers. Tangy and delicious, the small was huge! The wings were def done right and although I'm a blue cheese fan, the ranch was better. I'm knocking off one star for the burger. It was $16 (with tots) but it was tiny! It had one slice of red onion, a few shreds of lettuce, maybe a teaspoon of bacon jam and I'm not certain it had cheese at all. It tasted great, and the tots were perfect, but for that price I expected a burger that was bigger and more substantial than a $4 burger from Jimmy's. With all the other stuff (we shared) we were full but on its own, that burger would've been a disappointment. I'll go back for those banana peppers and wings, but I'll skip that little bitty burger.
