    Pita Burger

    This place is a hidden gem!!! I can't believe I have never been here in all my years living in Charlotte. Fantastic lunch spot to bring colleagues, family, or friends if you are looking for something casual. The food was great and so were the portions. I will definitely be back again!

    Chicken salad Chicken Salad on Toast

    randmas toast. Tomatoes were fresh, love a crinkle cut and was crispy. Felt pricey @ 13 dollar however, heavy portion of chicken salad. Feel like someone's housewife reviewing chicken salad but whatever

    The Kelly's as a wrap with xtra ranch.

    Breakfast or Lunch do not sleep on this place great little diner vibe every one is very friendly.

    This place is awesome. Homemade meals right next to my job! Today I had breakfast and it was quick, easy and tasty. I got the bologna and cheese sandwich and was not disappointed. They asked what type of bread I wanted and asked about my condiment choice. Freshly brewed coffee with great outside seating choices. Their house special changes on the daily. Their parking availability is massive since most people walk during lunch break for food. This place has spotless bathrooms and dining room area. Most places have a distinct smell to their bathroom. But this place smells CLEAN.

    Line was steady at lunch time! Counter service fast. I had the cheese steak and fries which was good. Food was fresh and hot. I would go again and try some other items. Prices average around $12 a meal without a drink. Seating inside mostly. A couple picnic tables outside. Plenty of parking.

    Absolutely horrible gyro ! 3 pieces of packaged burnt so-called lamb. 3oz of meat at best !

    No idea how this place has such good reviews it's just one of the million every day Greek restaurants and not a very good one at that . My gyro I ordered had like 3 tiny burnt packaged pieces of lamb in it maybe 3 oz max along with frozen fries as a side .

    I've been coming here for years. I stopped coming around the pandemic and just started going back recently but one thing I've noticed is they're very stingy with condiments. The last few times I've went there and ordered a breakfast sandwich and asked for jelly they will only give you one and then when you ask for more they look at you funny. They also won't give you a bag to put your stuff in unless you ask for it. They just put it in the styrofoam container and give it to you. I was taught to never leave outta the store without your stuff in a bag. I forgot to mention the food is good.

    Bacon cheeseburger and fries with a side of ranch.

    It was my first time eating here and I'm very impressed. I went during lunch hour and I was out within 7-10mins, tops! I got a cheeseburger, fries, and a bottled soda. The burger was fresh and made exactly how I wanted it and the bun was toasted just slightly which was satisfying. There is plenty of seating for dining in however, I took my order to go. They accept card and Apple Pay which is very convenient. Nice place to grab lunch if you're near the airport.

    Greek Salad with Gyro meat.

    Great local restaurant tucked amongst the industrial park near Charlotte airport. I was looking for a simple, quick meal that would be good and allow me to do some work from a sit down restaurant. I walked up to the counter to order and less than a minute was giving my order for Greek Salad with Gyro and in under 3-4 minutes my food was served. Has a diner kind of vibe and food was served fast, fresh, and good portion. Gyro Meat was cooked and seasoned well, feta was plentiful, and tomato's, cucumbers, and lettuce all fresh. I would visit again to try more of their Greek options, sandwiches, and salads. Appeared to be a popular restaurant for the local airport, fire, and EMS crews also.

    Saw this place on Instagram and decided to give it a try. Stopped by during lunch to see if the food matched the IG videos. When I got there, there was a good lunch crowd already eating, but there were plenty of tables available. I ordered the 11 inch cheesesteak (my eyes were bigger than my stomach) and fries. The sandwich was huge. It was fresh off the grill and was very good. It also came with French fries that were super fresh. It's kind of hard to find on your own but gps will take right to the front of the restaurant. I would definitely go back if I'm in the area and try more of the menu.

The first time was in November 2025 and 2nd time March 2026 where the bartenders were professional, welcoming, knowledgeable, and made some of the best Bloody Marys we've had in Charlotte. The food was excellent, and we left both times excited to come back. Unfortunately, this Sunday's visit (around 2 p.m.) felt like a different restaurant. It was much busier, and service was noticeably lacking. We waited quite a while just to be acknowledged, our drinks weren't nearly the quality they had been before, and the Bloody Mary tasted like it came straight from a mix instead of being handcrafted like our previous visits. The food was also disappointing. It was much saltier than we remembered, and we never received the Caesar salad with steak we ordered. To the staff's credit, it wasn't on our bill, so we didn't mention it. Overall, no one was rude, but the attention to detail, professionalism, and overall experience that earned our previous five-star reviews just wasn't there this time. We're hoping this was simply an off day because we genuinely loved this place and would like to see it return to the high standard that made us regular customers.

Big, open and airy. Lots of seating and a few party rooms too. Loved the outdoor seating too. If it had been a little cooler that would have been perfect. They have cornhole and ping pong and just a fun atmosphere out there. Our server was warm and attentive. We did not have to wait for refills and she was quick to answer any questions we had. We started with a few apps - the chips and onion dip and the pigs in a blanket. The chips were well salted and the onion dip was DELISH!!! The pigs were wrapped in homemade party dough and came with a honey mustard crème fraiche. They were so good!! For entrees we tried the fried chicken, prime rib dip, and the meatloaf. The chicken was crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and perfectly seasoned. The mashed potatoes were so good too. The only misstep on this dish was the biscuit. Way too dense and not very flavorful. The prime rib dip was tender and came on the most crispy bread. What a great combo! The only thing that wasn't great were the fries, just nothing too special. The meatloaf dish was flavorful and came with those yummy mashed potatoes so great pairing. We didn't have room for dresser on site but we did take the monkey bread to go and enjoyed it later. Good portion size and full of apple and caramel flavor. Did not regret taking that home!! Really looking forward to this spot opening closer to home. Highly recommended

The one on lettuce was better, more larger pieces of lobster, but meat was put onto a lot of lettuce to prop it up. It takes some effort, but buying a live lobster and cooking oneself is really the best way. I was hopeful- but ultimately disappointed.

    Attractive and comfortable restaurant; however, they have a major flaw. They do NOT have menus…read more The waitress pointed to a square thingy on the table. Neither my friend or I have the capability to use it, and frankly we shouldn't have to. I'd like to look at my options in-hand. Instead, the waitress literally had to verbally tell us every single item the restaurant had since there were no menus. I'm taking a star off for this ridiculous inconvenience. The only reason I'm giving 4 Stars is because of the quality and price of the food. The music was loud and annoying for dinner. We could not hear the waitress and we had difficulty having a conversation. Perhaps these reasons are why there is barely anyone in the restaurant despite the food and drinks being excellent. Honestly, the menus and music would make me think twice about returning and has likely affected others the same way as well. It's a shame, because this restaurant has so much potential. On Wednesday they have a $30 special for a 12oz ribeye or salmon, 2 sides, and a cocktail for $30. The cocktails were beautiful and excellent. I got the ribeye, mashed potatoes, and asparagus. The ribeye was tender. However, I asked for horseradish cream sauce or chimichurri for the steak, but they didn't have either one, which is odd if they serve steaks. The mashed potatoes were seasoned to perfection and cheesy. The asparagus were cooked thoroughly and perfect. (Not the silly al dente found at some restaurants). I'll definitely come back again on a Wednesday and bring my husband (who also doesn't use barcode thingies). We live 1 mile away and would love to make this a regular spot. Can you PLEASE have some REAL MENUS ready and turn down the music ?!?!?!

It's never a win on both. The best thing I've had here so far is the strawberry French toast--it's actually really good.

The waffles were so hard that I honestly can't believe the kitchen sent them out, and I can't believe I actually tried to eat them! I really want to see this place succeed, but they definitely need to work on consistency, especially with both the food and the drinks. There's potential here, but unfortunately, my experiences so far have been more disappointing than enjoyable.
