    Friendly neighborhood restaurant. Staff is friendly enough. I thought the menu had too many options for such a small spot. A restaurant of that size can't do everything right and they didn't. I went out with friends, one opted for some sort of chicken teriyaki with rice, but when it came out it looked more like soup, hardly any rice. Another friend opted for the salmon. She seemed to like as it was cooked to her liking. I opted for a chicken wrap with bacon, no bacon came. It also came with fries, but they were so greasy that I had to ask them to send out another order. When the second order came out, they were just as greasy. I can't say that I would rush back.

    My wife and I enjoyed a delicious dinner here recently. She had the grilled salmon, and I had a chef's salad - both of which were excellent. Our server Madison was personable and professional. We sat outside in comfortable surroundings and were able to converse without interference from noise. Several families had young children.

    Tried Fresh Chef for the first time day, food and service were great . My husband had Cajun Trout and I had Lasagna, both were great .

    Kale salad with salmon

    There are several locations of this casual chain around the greater Charlotte area. We were very pleased when this location opened near our home. My wife and I went in for lunch and were greeted by a plentiful staff, all of which were very attentive. We are huge fans of their kale salad and their smoked salmon appetizer. The smoked salmon appetizer is perfectly cooked to a medium temperature and it is served with a creamy spread. The salads are chopped, have a house made dressing and are great topped with a protein of your choice. My wife ordered salmon on top of her kale salad while I ordered the blackened chicken. Both were cooked perfectly and the portion was large enough for us to make two meals out each salad. I have enjoyed their hamburgers at other locations which are also very good.

    Cutest quaintest hidden gem in Huntersville. Today my friend and I popped in here for lunch on a whim. We were entered through the patio area which is extremely spacious. The hostess was friendly and welcomed us in. Our waitress was Kendall and she was amazing. The menu is ongoing so I was overwhelmed with choices so I had Kendall make some suggestions. I ordered fish tacos for me and my friend and $5 mimosas! I had a side of. Geese grits while my friend had fries. Tbe inside is cute without being too casual or too fancy. The Saturday crowd of people were friendly. The tacos taste fresh and the sauce that they use is so delicious! Talking about a party in your mouth. The manager came around and asked about the meal. Kim explained the hours and told us more about the restaurant. I am definitely going to be a repeat customer! Drop by if you're in the area fresh chef is located in the shopping center with the Publix and it is free parking!

    Food is always terrific. Kale salad and shrimp entree is good-to. Usually opt for take out due to ease of in and out.

    Came here for dinner with my family and exceeded my expectations. This family friendly restaurant…read morehad a great ambiance with a song trivia and good service! The restrooms were clean and well kept. The food was very good, with a wide variety of options. As well as the drinks, with lots of featured wines and cocktails. Definitely recommend if you are looking for good food and drinks. The only issue I had was that a man was constantly worrying about people not joining his music trivia, otherwise I had no complaints!

    I recently visited Torrence and Knox in Cornelius and came away with mixed--but mostly…read morepositive--feelings. The restaurant itself is beautiful, with a great atmosphere and a welcoming vibe that makes it an enjoyable place to spend an evening. The location is convenient, and the space feels fresh, modern, and inviting. The service was also a highlight of the experience. Our server was friendly, attentive, and helped make the meal enjoyable from start to finish. The restaurant is known for its casual yet upscale ambiance, which definitely came through during our visit.  Where the experience fell a bit short for me was the food. Everything was prepared well and perfectly edible, but nothing really stood out or felt especially memorable. It wasn't bad by any means--just not quite at the same level as the atmosphere and service. I went for the lobster tail ravioli, and it was just a bit too chewy for my taste. I was hoping for a dish that would make me eager to come back, but that didn't happen on this visit. I could, however, come back. I would give it a second chance and would like to try drinks from the bar.  Overall, Torrence and Knox is a great spot for the ambiance, service, and overall dining experience. If you're looking for a comfortable place to meet friends, enjoy drinks, or have a relaxed night out, it's definitely worth a visit. I'd return for the atmosphere alone and would be interested to try more of the menu in the future.

Welcome to the Serve, the Cornelius answer to how to be active while enjoying good times with friends. Reserve one of their 10 pickleball court in their air conditioned room or grab one outside when it's not hot. There are also golf simulators, dining space, and event space so bring the whole crew to have fun and hang out. The courts are spaced out so groups can play and have a comfortable booth to sit and order food. Their bartender Krista was very engaging and happy to suggest a beverage with your favorite libation. We ate in the restaurant. My son enjoyed the kids chicken tenders. My wife and I enjoyed the short ribs grilled cheese and the bbq chicken pizza. There's a full breakfast and lunch menu and breakfast is available till 2 on Saturday so you have a variety of options to order. If you want to hang out as a family or with friends you'll have a great time at The Serve.

This was our first time here, and it's a very nice venue. To start, their coffee is delicious and strong. I had the Double Up, with scrambled eggs (with added cheddar), bacon, sausage links, sourdough toast, and fruit. My husband had the Short Rib Hash with a side of potatoes. He forgot the hash also had potatoes, and should have gotten something else, because he had far too many potatoes! My scrambled eggs were a little over cooked and the cheese was only melted on top (rather than being mixed in), but they were still decent. The bacon was perfectly crispy--as requested, and the sausage links were fine. The sourdough toast was buttered and delicious. And the fruit had watermelon--a nice addition to the usual fruit cup. My husband's short rib hash was good. The eggs were perfectly medium, but the potatoes were a bit salty. Easy Like Sunday still makes our favorite version of this dish. Our server was very pleasant, and the wait wasn't too long for our food. I loved that we could pay with ApplePay via the Toast handheld. While everything wasn't perfect, we'll definitely return and try some different items. I want to try them for dinner, too!
