    Ham along with Turkey and Dressing
    Bill W.

    Been awhile but still good K & W is a regional Cafeteria chain specializing in Southern Comfort Food. At one time, there was one in Cornelius because the gentleman who owned K&W had a lake house a couple blocks over and this was his showcase. Unfortunately he passed away and with no local connection, service and quality quickly suffered and it eventually closed. From a business standpoint that made sense since he had to bus employees from a hour away just to staff the restaurant. When our kitchen was being remodeled, we ate many a good dinner at that location and it was a favorite of my late Sister-in-Law. My wife really enjoyed the place and kept making comments about how much she missed it. This location is in Concord and I went to it a couple of times when I worked in Concord and generally found it to be very good. On Sunday recently, after Church on Sunday, I drove her over to Concord so she could enjoy K&W again. Arrived there at about 11:10 and promptly went through the line. Good selection although there was a disconnect on the salad section which unfortunately is fairly common from what I have observed in the Cornelius location and others as well. Must be the least trained position because on multiple occasions, when it came time to make a salad choice, the attendant disappeared. I must confess, I pigged out. I had the Turkey with Dressing and Cranberries but I also had the Ham as well along with pureed Sweet Potatoes and Pecan Pie. All was delicious. My wife had Pot Roast which is one of her favorites as well. Good food and as far as service, being a cafeteria not much you can say here except they did keep out glasses of Tea filled. I will admit, I miss K&W as well and will be back in the near future

    This was my first time actually eating at K&W cafeteria. My mother has been a fan of this eatery for a very very long time. I was really surprised at the prices there! Not in a good way. I paid nearly $10 for just a small piece of salmon and a half a cup of collard greens. No drink! I believe they must offer a senior citizen discount or something. Because there were so many seniors there. If anyone is ever looking to reach the senior market... It would be silly not to stop at K&W. The food was decent, but nothing exceptionally memorable. The waitress was very friendly, and was the best part of our visit. The bathrooms were clean. My sister got free refills on her sweet tea, so that was good. We had an unwelcome guests at our table. An ant! That disgusted me, but it's better than a roach. So in summation... Bland, overpriced food, free tea refills, friendly waitress, and unwanted crawling insects, but a clean bathroom... Three out of five stars.

    Food was cold at 7:30 pm but if you close at 8:00pm shouldn't your food still be served hot?

    Came here for the 1st time. Mother's day brunch! We arrived around 1045am. Of course it was packed…read more They didnt take formal reservations to guarantee seating at a certain time, but you could call ahead and place your name on a list to get seated ahead of the crowd once you arrived. My daughter called and when we arrived, we were lucky and was seated right away as a table was coming open. Small inside footprint but cozy with a full bar. Also outdoor patio seating. The hostess, our waitress and the walk around staff refilling water was top tier. Excellent customer service. Our waitress wasbbomb, I hate i forgot her name. Even though the place was packed she tooknour order in a timely manner, and kept checking on us be9fre we got our food,.kept us informed that the kitchen was busy but she on it. Allnifnkur food was delicious. My daughter had chicken and Belgium waffles, and I had the shrimp amd grits, my mom had a breast platter. All great choices. Give them a try!

    This must be a go to spot for locals but I am not impressed…read more The setup is cute and the staff is friendly but let me get into the real... the food. If you don't eat pork skip this place! Seriously. Everything has pork. I got a handheld egg sandwich with tomato and cheese on a croissant with their potatoes. Basic sandwich, dry and the cheese & tomato were an extra charge. The potatoes were hard like they're old. The mimosa was good, regular sparkling with pineapple juice. And their tip machine doubles the recommended amount so for my $9 mimosa it generates a +$3 tip at 18 % but it should have been under $2. Just wanted to point that out too. I won't be back.
