Nothing inside has changed and it still looks like Sweet Frog but only serves ice cream. They have lots of good ice cream flavors. It looked like the place was being run by two teenage girls. They have a sign that talks about some Stuffed Milkshakes, but there is no place that actually lists what these Stuffed Shakes actually are or what choices there are to choose from. I ordered the Super Sundae, it was average and didn't look all that professional. I heard the girls keep telling customers that they were out of items (cherries, chocolate chip cookie dough, bananas) which doesn't seem like they were set up for much success in being prepared.

One of the best things about Slim's is that you can get genuinely good food at an affordable price--which makes a huge difference when you're taking a whole carload of kids out to eat! The atmosphere is another favorite of mine. It has that laid-back Southern charm and hospitality that feels like home, especially for someone born and raised in North Carolina. There's country music playing, plenty of character throughout the restaurant, and they even have a table made from a truck. It doesn't get much more Southern than that! My go-to order is a burger with pimento cheese and fries, and I highly recommend doctoring up the fries with their Cajun seasoning, homemade ranch, and a little vinegar. SO good! Great food, great prices, and a fun, welcoming atmosphere. Slim's is an easy favorite for our family!

We ended up nixxing half the order and just taking what was ready after an hour. Their saving grace was that they were respectful about the mistake and did not give off with any anger when we were trying to come to a resolution after me needing to leave at the hour mark. I just paid for what was ready at that time and the person gave me a coupon if I decide to come back. I don't know how the food is yet so this review is just for the service.

The space has been completely redone and the custom bar is honestly worth seeing on its own. Real creek rocks, a blue streak built into the surface, lights underneath. A lot of thought went into it. We started with the tiger chicken nachos and those things are as good as everyone says. I went with the smash burger for my main, nice crust on the patty, good toppings, nothing falling apart. My wife got the salmon and she was really happy with it too. The menu is set up so you can pop in for a casual weeknight meal or do something a little nicer on the weekend, which I appreciate. Someone from the ownership side stopped by our table to check in, which felt genuine, not just going through the motions. Live music was playing when we got there and it was loud enough to enjoy but you could still have a conversation. Prices are fair. We'll be back sooner rather than later.

Never ever considered stopping for food here because getting through the city on 74 is tough enough as time seems to stand still here because no one, and I mean no one is moving quickly here. As the current situation is Shelby is now the half way point from my our home to where my daughter and grandson moved 1 1/2 hours away. Tuesday night we made the trek to pick up the grand for a sleep over, meeting half way at The Creekside Clock for dinner. In the entry way there is a sign stating that food is made to order so please be patient. OK. We got plenty of patience. Walk up to the counter and place your order, HUH??? Can I take a look at a menu? Sure, put on your glasses and read from the menu board. Sorry! I wasn't prepared for that. Menu looks great. There is a lot of variety and daily specials. We placed 3 separate orders, probably the first mistake as we were all sitting together, just not paying together. I am not a fan of paying before you get your food. Tip? What am I tipping? We sit with our little numbers on sticks at our table and a waitress comes to review our tickets and bring our drinks. So far so good. Ok now we wait. I can see the kitchen window and there are 6 heads in view and they appear to be super busy prepping and getting out the food. Apparently that wasn't the case. First order arrives, baked potato and chicken sandwich looks yum! A side salad was also delivered. A good bit later my meatloaf and fiancé's combination seafood plate and the grands shrimp. All looks good, alas, there is nothing on my plate that is even warm. I Asked if they had a microwave they could reheat my plate, it was that cold. Found out also that the chick sandwich and potato that was delivered first was not warm either. Still waiting on a steak and steak tips at this point everyone else was pretty much done with their food. The steak was good, again the potato cold. I am really shocked by all of the good Google reviews for this place. Although the menu looks nice. For them to boast that food is made to order, and not even serve the food warm along with the horrible execution, this was a one and done for us!

Much Smaller than most places. We didn't eat them all they were not good at all, but we had already left when we opened them or I would have brought back. The place wasn't busy when we went in. I doubt we would go back We. don't go near this location at all anymore. There's another location on the main road and we've been there many times the food is amazing. It's more convenient. We will stick with that one.

We were seated right away and our waitress, Jennifer, got our drink order as soon as we sat down. Jennifer asked if we wanted garlic butter on our basket of breadsticks and of course we said, "Yes, please!" I ordered the Bella Verona Sampler which comes with mozzarella sticks, fried mushrooms, stuffed jalapeños, onion rings and chicken fingers. My husband ordered the Meat Ravioli with meat sauce and it came with a salad. We ate the garlic buttered breadsticks and salad before I even thought to take a picture. They were that good! Haha. The sampler was amazing! They give you marinara for the mozzarella sticks and your choice of a dipping sauce for the chicken strips. I chose bbq sauce and it was really good. My husband ate half of the fried mushrooms and I ate the rest of the sampler plate! My husband also licked his plate of meat ravioli clean! Everything was delicious. We will definitely become regulars and try everything.
