    Fuji Apple salad and broccoli cheddar soup with green smoothie is what's for lunch.

    Always great food fast service and friendly staff. Can hardly wait to taste the flatbread and strawberry field's salad. The eating area and bathroom are extremely clean and the smell of fresh made bakery items have my stomach growling. Always a favorite of mine.

    Had great experiences in past visits from this Elizabeth City location. Tonight ordered a Toasted Steak & White Cheddar sandwich and there was hardly any meat. My father's sandwich had a little more but not by much. Pretty chintzy for a $14 sandwich.

    Had a great lunch here. The restaurant is very clean and I was also happy to see that it's up to par with others with the quick ordering self service kiosks. Some of the booths have power outlet to let you do some work on your laptop if you need to. The free wifi is also a great convenience and fast enough to watch live streaming sports broadcasts while you dine! I had the chicken pasta bowl with arugula...delicious! Portion size was good and filling! Next I also had a custom Caesar salad by my design that turned out excellent as well. Everything appeared and tasted fresh, including the baguettes. I'm definitely coming back!

    The new and " improved" steak and white cheddar panini. This is the second time I gave this a try since they changed the way they heat a sandwich. It's dry, burnt and the meat is tough.

    Passing by this place on our way back from Outerbank to VA…read more Here are what we tried- Fried frog legs - 5/5. It's super moist and tender! Better than any other frog legs I had since it is usually tougher meat. Calamari - 5/5. Light batter, fresh, and soft! Fried soft crab sandwich - 4/5. The soft crab is amazing. The bread just relatively slightly bigger than the crab so there are bites I only have bread. But the flavor is very good! Oyster & shrimp basket - 4/5. This was the daily special item when we ordered. The shrimp was big and oyster was good. Just think the oyster is smaller than expected but good flavor overall. We had fried okra on the side, it was good but wish there is a bit more salt. Cocktail sauce, ketchup is placed on each table so it was helpful and convenience. We could not find where the napkins were for the longest time, then realized it was right next to the food pick up spot The food came out in reasonable time. Also learned that u can actually order ahead on their online platform then pick it up! I found it super convenient as our friends did that and got their food super fast!

    I'm not usually one to leave negative reviews because I know how tough the restaurant industry can…read morebe. Im also usually a huge fan of Stockpot, as I frequent the one in Norfolk. I'm a chef myself and travel to different restaurants regularly, so I try to be understanding. That said, the service we experienced yesterday at Stock Pot was unfortunately some of the worst I've had in quite a while. We sat outside, and it honestly felt like we were being deliberately ignored. The restaurant wasn't busy, yet we had to wait long stretches just to get basic things. At one point near the end of our meal, we asked for a box and our check. Instead of bringing it over, the waitresses stood around talking with other waitresses, while we continued to wait. After sitting there for quite a while, we eventually had to ask for the check and box, a second time. Throughout the meal the service was inconsistent. We had three different waitresses checking on us, but were left to sit for about 30 minutes alone at one point, and it took almost 20 to have our order taken, once we ordered, we had to request our appetizer again, after waiting another 20 or so minutes. Upon asking, again, we found out they were out of part of the appetizer we ordered. After that it came out quick. The food, however, was excellent and definitely the highlight of the experience. That's why this review is disappointing to write -- the kitchen is clearly doing a great job. I just hope the service side improves, because it didn't match the quality of the food.

When we got there, at lunchtime on a weekday, they were packed, but there were a few seats open at a hightop, which we took. Service was great and attentive, as well as helpful as she offered great suggestions and explained how various dishes were made. I tried a cup of their red bean and ham soup (it was the soup du jour) as well as their open face chicken salad sandwich and both were very good. They were both made fresh, in-house with fresh ingredients. Flavors were great too. I really liked the touch of having Dijon mustard on the chicken salad sandwich. There were so many great things on the menu that I would definitely return and try more!

I ordered takeout, but the restaurant itself has plenty of seating. When I walked in, I was greeted right away and directed to the counter to order. The service was quick--I didn't have to wait long at all, which is always a plus. I started with the beef skewer, which came with a very small side of salad--just a couple slices of cucumber, some tomatoes, and a bit of lettuce with dressing. It was a nice surprise since I wasn't expecting anything extra, but if you're looking for a real side salad, you might want to order one separately. The beef skewer itself was delicious--tender, easy to bite into, and the slightly charred ends added great flavor. Definitely a solid appetizer or side. For my main, I got the vegetarian pho with extra tofu and no mushrooms, and it really hit the spot. The broth was flavorful and comforting. I added jalapeños and oyster sauce, and honestly, I couldn't eat it fast enough. The noodles and veggies were fresh and satisfying. Overall, a great experience--I'll definitely be back!
