Very few healthy options but you can be creative and figure something out. I had a burger and with it being so loud - the grilled mushrooms and grilled onions were missed. Would that have helped maybe. No condiments on the burger whatsoever so you have to figure out to put them on yourself. It's a sloppy burger. It was an okay burger nothing to write home about. There are no onion rings during brunch French fries were crispy and delicious. Julia was a great server considering how thin she was spread.

Parking can…read morebe a little limited since the restaurant does not have its own dedicated parking lot, but we were able to find street parking nearby. If you live close to the area, I would recommend taking an Uber or rideshare just to make things easier. The restaurant itself is absolutely beautiful. It is located inside a renovated old church, and the atmosphere is gorgeous. There is also a patio and a separate bar area. We arrived on time for our reservation and were seated right away. Our server, Thomas, was great and provided wonderful service throughout the evening. My friend had an extra dirty martini with blue cheese stuffed olives, and I had a Grey Goose Cosmopolitan. The drinks were excellent. For an appetizer, we had six raw oysters with a sweet honeydew and kiwi flavor. I usually prefer my oysters with cocktail sauce and horseradish, so this was something different for me, but I really enjoyed them. They had a really nice sweet and savory flavor. For dinner, my friend and I split the branzino, which was grilled with fresh herbs and was delicious. We also had the wood oven Brussels sprouts and the mac and cheese, and both were very good. Overall, the food, drinks, service, and atmosphere were all great. My girlfriend and I had the perfect girls' night out enjoying dinner, drinks, and catching up. I really enjoyed my experience at Supperland and would definitely recommend it.

Grill was still open and I had one of the best Cheeseburgers along with Fries that I have ever had. They have either a weekly or daily theme and that day it was Brazil. Note the Brazil Flag in the picture of the Check Out. If parking was not such a premium, I would consider the place as a regular for lunch.

Located off Remount Rd, Londa's sits right next to Renaldo's, another place on my list. You can only order and pick up at Londa's. I ordered the beef rib meal w/ Mac n cheese, yams, and cornbread, and added a fried chicken breast and collard greens. Listen! I'd order this every Sunday if I could! It was all so good! There's no meat on the greens, but they were well flavored. Have I had better somewhere? Maybe, but Londa's did not miss! I was quite pleased!

The pulled pork was decent, but mostly made me miss Lupita's pork by the pound in Charlotte (which continues to ruin other pulled pork for me). The coleslaw needed to be chopped finer but the overall flavor was okay. The mac & cheese had strong church-potluck energy (not an insult, I've had some excellent church potluck mac & cheese) but that's about where I'd place it. Then came my biggest disappointment... No hushpuppies. They give you a roll instead which was perfectly fine, It did nothing wrong, but when I'm eating NC BBQ, I want hushpuppies. A dinner roll is not an acceptable emotional substitute. Overall, Ray Nathan's was a perfectly decent lunch stop if you're already in the area. I just didn't find anything that would make me drive out of my way for it. Good BBQ. Needs finer slaw. Needs hushpuppies. Lupita's haunts every pulled pork review I write.
