Grilled chicken street tacos
Anya P.

Probably the best street tacos in Matthews always a hit and great customer service. They always have drink specials. Definitely my to go spot.

Half order chicken nachos. It's huge!!!

We went to dinner on Friday night. The restaurant was busy but we were seated immediately. Our warm chips and two types of salsa were brought to the table before we got settled in. I ordered the chicken nachos. I was pleased to see you can order a half order! The nachos were delicious and arrived quickly. The service was amazing! Even the hostess checked on us periodically. We will definitely eat here again. It's different than other Mexican restaurants in our area but a nice change to offer some variety.

Every visit has been as great as the next. Great food, atmosphere, and service. FWIW the grilled chicken taco might be the best I've ever eaten.

Decent no-frills Mexican food. This would normally be a 4-star review, but the affordable prices were much appreciated. Food was decent. Service was friendly enough. Enjoyed sitting out on the patio, where we dined later in the evening and had it all to ourselves. Kudos for bringing water for my dogs who joined us as well.

FANTASTIC place! First time being since here they changed name and management. Employees were super friendly and attentive. Sat outside on their patio, which was extra nice and had nice music playing. Ordered their quesadilla dinner, and my daughter order3d their Carne asada plate. They both were delicious! The steak was very well marinated in a steak sauce. Both plates were extra hefty and definitely leave you feeling full. Ordered their strawberry margarita with a Tajin rim, and it was delicious. Will be back for sure and try other items on their menu. There is plenty of parking and not busy on a Sunday around dinner time.

The margarita flight

First time going to this restaurant, the food 10/10, the menu was beautiful just like the ambiance. I got a margarita flight also 10/10. The service was great and the food hot, fresh and most of all delicious!!!!

We've had dinner at the portrait gallery before and were pretty impressed with the food. We figured…read morelunch here would be just as good...wrong. The quality was just not there. The burgers had that pre cooked microwave bacon and the "famous fries" were just curly wedges you can get at any college bar. That was a whopping 6 dollars for an addition of truffle mayo and pre shredded Parmesan. The lunch menu only has burgers and tacos. If you're gunna do all this to take away from your regular dining experience you may as well not do a lunch menu at all. I started reading other reviews and apparently this place has the same menu dinner and lunch. Seems like theft to allow the previous reviews and menu to be online. Only to serve people mediocre store bought tacos and burgers.

The outside is the small town charm of Matthews, but the inside is modern big city vibes. It is absolutely beautiful in there. Service was great and food and drinks amazing. I went on a Tuesday with a huge group of Facebook Group friends and we had a ball. We got the whole dining area reserved for us and in spite of a large crowd, the two waitresses were awesome. On Tuesdays cocktails are half off so I got the margarita and it was delish. For food I got the truffle fries and short rib sliders. Both were phenomenal! I couldn't even eat it all lol because even though small plates, I felt they both were filling. This place is great for a date night, hanging with the girls or even going solo to hang out at the bar. I can't wait to get back! Only thing that could make this place better is some live acoustic music sometimes, it would set the ambience off even more. Spoke with the owner and he said they do cocktail classes as well, they don't have them listed on the website but working on it, but said can email them for the info. I certainly will! lol

And as crowded as it was on our recent visit, The One may eventually have to seek out trendier, more spacious digs somewhere else in the Queen City. Until then, be prepared for a noisy ambiance, peak hour waits and tables that are a bit close for comfort. But the food and cocktails make it all worth it. The extensive menu of shareable plates offers something for every palate, from the tasty Fettucini with Roasted Duck Ragu and flavorful Braised Short Ribs to the amazing Oxtail Empanadas. Paired with a perfectly mixed Old Fashioned or a bottle of wine from their impressive selection, it adds up to a compelling culinary experience for anything from date night to an evening with friends. Service was excellent on our visit and prices were very reasonable for a meal of this caliber. Parking is free and super-easy, but reservations are highly recommended -- especially for weekend visits. My only gripe was the tightness of the space, which makes intimate conversation a bit challenging and the tables a bit crowded -- especially when you order a variety of plates. But if you can manage to visit on a quiet weeknight, The One will deliver a wonderful tapas meal that will have you planning a return visit before you pick up the check.

For $50 you get 4 wines and 3 small plates plus information about both. The pairings were excellent and the food was incredible. We ended up ordering the truffle fries and dilly dilly chicken off the menu after the tasting just to round out the meal. I've never had anything bad here and the service is always excellent. Cannot recommend this place enough.

A snazzy little place with more than just a cool name. My wife and I visited The Teal Turnip on a…read moredate night and it was the perfect, intimate experience. A smaller restaurant with a big punch and a fun menu. We had reservations so we were quickly seated upon arrival and waters were made ready immediately after seating. We were super hungry so we ordered an appetizer of I Yam What I Yam ( a sweet potato bruschetta with lemon mascarpone) which was amazing and definitely not something you can find anywhere. For my main I chose the Cobia with pesto and gigante beans. I love the amount of flavor with this dish and I love even more that they had Cobia (not a very common fish found in restaurants). The fish was perfectly cooked and again, the pesto exploded with flavor. I wish would have saved room for dessert but after these amazing dishes we were stuffed. Great food, great atmosphere and great service!

My waitress was bright and smiling on this early Sunday morning. I ordered my usual "test" plate I use on 1st trips to get a feel for the place. Nailed it! Fast, hot, freakin' delicious. When she set my plate down the 1st thing I notice was my biscuit was the size of grandma's "cathead" biscuits, called that because they're that big! Eggs over easy, perfect! Sausage patties large and very good, similar to Neese's if you know what I mean, and perfect! Hashbrowns, perfect! Add the constant top-off on my coffee with the aforementioned smiles, and this is a hidden jewel in Charlotte folks. And it was even cheaper than Waffle House and that is rare in this overpriced town. I will be back!

I ordered the Bananas Foster waffle with chicken tenders and whew...absolutely delicious. Sweet, warm, indulgent and exactly the kind of comfort food my spirit needed. My brother-in-love couldn't stop talking about his Bananas Foster pancakes with country ham -- though he did lobby for a slightly bigger serving of the ham. And my SO completely cleaned his plate of liver mush, grits, eggs and biscuit - he never does that. He also had a passion fruit margarita that he raved about the entire ride home. Honestly, taking care of me right now is a full-time job, so I fully support the brunch cocktail. What I loved most? Wakey Wakey isn't trying to be fancy or pretentious. It's just good people serving good food in a welcoming atmosphere -- and that's exactly what I needed!
