Everything was safe and tasted amazing. We didn't have to think twice about ordering, and it was well worth the money. Service is a 10/10. Very personable and kind, it made dining even more enjoyable. Food came out promptly and was HOT and very fresh! The atmosphere was so relaxing, too. It's a small dining area with soft lighting, making it very intimate. Nothing was overly loud or distracting and they encourage putting phones away, which adds to engaging with your party. In short, it felt like we could fully breathe and just enjoy our dinner. No worries or distractions in sight! We completely reccomend this place and bought the cookbook before leaving, because I was that good. P.S. Try the ravioli! It is a amazing!

But I will absolutely be back!!! Adie was absolutely excellent in explaining the menu and sharing her favorites! (I gave her a personal to let her know how wonderful her recommendations were) The fries are delicious. Seasoning so so good! I had my mouth set on the biscoff cookie shake, they only had Oreo. I tried it but it was just ok. Highly recommend giving out bigger straws b/c it was a headache sucking that shake through lol. I also would recommend using coconut milk instead of oat milk. It just has an aftertaste whereas coconut not so much. The best thing and the shocker for me and my non vegan friend, was the Carolina Hot dog. It left me screaming and then speechless. My friend even did a happy dance lol. We are contemplating taking another drive tonight before they close b/c I shared it with her as she was too nervous to get it, we want more lol. We both love hotdogs and I can't say that I've ever had a really good vegan one. This was it!!! And honestly can't tell it was vegan from the texture, to the chili, the special sauces, ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! And the Philly cheesesteak came a very close second runner up. The bread stood up to the sauces. And they are saucey but I don't mind it at all. Sautéed peppers, onions, the protein...this was just good clean food and not too much processed. As a vegan chef (Mama Nicca's Homemade Things) and someone who loves to be creative in this vegan world of cooking, this truly was OUTSTANDING. I will probably return every time I'm in Charlotte. I'm in PA and I wish we could have this on the coast. In this voice of my sister Tabitha Brown, VERY GOOD!!!

The guys were working and being able to do the order myself actually leaves them free to work their magic in the kitchen. Of course if you have a question they will answer. The PEACH COBBLER LEMONADE was amazing, great suggestion from the Chef because my first choice was sold out. ! I got the Hearty Breakfast Burrito and it was very tasty but I was expecting more contents since it carries the description of "hearty", maybe that's just describing the ingredients and not the amount. Their homemade Salsa was super flavorful. I hope this business continues to flourish and sell out everyday! Had their Chili as well.... Loved every bite!!

I ordered the extreme sweet potato which was not disappointing. (I was a little concerned that I was smelling gas on the inside but they maybe using it for cooking.) If in the area, I will try them again.

Every side was flavorful, and the meal came together really well. My only minor wish is that they gave a few more lamb chops, but I understand that may not be possible unless you order a double portion. Even so, I left satisfied and would absolutely order it again. One thing to know before you go: you'll place your order on one of the self-service kiosks inside. There are signs letting you know which kiosk to use. After ordering, you'll wait for your name to be called. If you're not there when your order is ready, they'll place your food in a pickup locker for you to retrieve, which is a nice convenience. I definitely recommend checking this place out if you're craving some flavorful soul food.

I love that there is seating inside the hall in case you want to hang around and eat. There are also different restaurants in the food hall as well so there is something for everyone ranging from Indian, Thai, and Costa Rican cuisine. Each shop allows you to order from the kiosk and will bring your food out when it is ready. If you place a pick up order it will be in one of the lox boxes waiting on you to pick up. Now to the food! I looked at the menu previously and knew i wanted to try the ribs. I also ordered the mac and cheese and black eyed peas as sides. The meal comes with rice and their vegetable of the day which happened to be collard greens that day. To finish the meal I ordered the housemade hibiscus tea. It took about 10-15 minutes or so for everything to be ready and it was brought out by one of the lovely owners (forgot to grab her name). She was so sweet and came back out to check on me mid meal. Everything was so good. I haven't had ribs in over a decade so that was such a nostalgic taste to me. It had the chargrill taste and everything and that sauce was so good! The "rib" meat had a great taste as well and I enjoyed the meaty texture. The fixins were all really good. The macaroni was nice and seasoned so were black eyed peas, collard greens, and rice. Truly tasted like a plate from an auntie's house. I'm already plotting my next trip to Charlotte so I can make my way back over here. We spotted a handful of vegan spots in the Charlotte area but I am so glad we went with this one.
