This diner was an awesome Yelp choice. Old school look with amazing service and food…read more My eggs were fluffy as well as my pancakes. The chicken wings were huge, fried just right and juicy. Kudos to the chef. Only negative is they offer a whipped spread instead of real butter. Delicious pancakes deserve good butter. I asked for real butter and all they had was honey butter. Do not sleep on asking for it. While it still spread, the honey makes it much better.

We came to Charlotte for a concert and decided to stay the night instead of driving home. By the…read moretime we got settled in, dining options were pretty limited, so we searched online and this spot looked like the best choice -- and we're glad we found it. When we pulled up, there was a police outside, which didn't bother us. If anything, it made things feel more secure. They also use a metal detector when you walk in before being seated. Don't let that scare you off though -- this place is a well-oiled machine and everything felt organized and under control. Our server was fantastic: calm, attentive, and never pushy. I ordered the country fried steak with collards and mashed potatoes with gravy, and my husband got a burger. My meal was excellent, and it came with a perfectly flaky biscuit. The tea was Southern SWEET tea, too. My husband said his burger was good for a diner, fresh vegetables and the fries were seasoned well. The diner itself is adorable, full of character and charm. Overall, we had a great experience and would absolutely come back.

Sometimes simple of the way to go. Lettuce, American Cheese, tomatoes, crinkled pickles, onions, and their "good good sauce." This all came together with the 100% premium angus beef (antibiotic and hormone free) smash-burgers perfectly cooked. The fried were very good, nicely crispy, but not overdone. Service was friendly and very quick. I highly recommend this place if you want a great burger.

Located inside the lively Optimist Hall, Harriet's Hamburgers is a great stop if you're craving a…read moresimple, well-executed smash burger. Optimist Hall itself is a very food-centric, upscale food hall with a ton of vendors, so the atmosphere is energetic and fun. Seating can be a little challenging during peak dinner hours since so many people are grabbing food from different spots, but when the weather is nice there's plenty of outdoor seating. Harriet's keeps their burger formula refreshingly simple. It's a classic smash burger done right--made to order with a straightforward menu that doesn't overcomplicate things. There's usually a line, but it moves pretty quickly, and the burgers come out hot and fresh. One of the best parts of eating here is the flexibility of the food hall experience. While you're waiting, you can grab a craft beer, a glass of wine, or even browse for dessert from one of the other vendors. Insider tip: Come with a group if you can. It's a great place to share fries and let everyone explore different vendors around the hall. Parking is fairly easy with the nearby garage, which makes the whole experience even more convenient. Overall, Harriet's is a fun, delicious stop for a smash burger, especially if you're already enjoying the energy of Optimist Hall.

After saying I was going to try Shake Shack for years, I finally decided to try them on a Friday…read morenight. I used their site to place a take out order. Easy peasy. My order wasn't ready when I walked in, but that gave me time to view the restaurant's interior. Was happy to see that all spaces I viewed were clean. I wasn't the only person who thought to do take out as a few people came to pick up orders, but the staff kept things moving. I ordered a chicken shack, cheese fries, & frozen custard. They're a little pricey for me to go as often as I'd like to. If you're on the fence, try then out. Food was fresh & hot. Was tempted to try the custard once I got to my car.

One of the employees we encountered wasn't personable but the one who gave us our food was very nice. Two what appeared to be managers walked right by us when it was empty inside and didn't acknowledge us. That's such a simple gesture to at least exchange pleasantries. The fries were fresh and the sodas were spicy if you know what I mean (not literally) they had that fizz!! The restaurant was clean and good level of music playing.

I enjoy Culver's burgers. Always hot and fresh with a great flavor…read more The one downside to their drive thru is that you always have to wait! It took at least 8 minutes to get to the drive up. I place an order for a butter burger. That is it! When I got to the window to pay I got a ticket added to my window as I had to wait even longer to get my food. They ask you yo park in one of the 7-8 spaces dedicated to waiting for drive thru food. As I pulled forward every space was taken! Even a few parking illegally. This is a problem they really need to figure out as I will now hesitate to go to Culver's drive thru because it takes too long to get your food.

Service is quick and an order for 4 people was out within 3~ minutes. Cant discredit the general cleanliness for a fast food restaurant nor the speed in which they brought the food out. This is C tier dining and I won't return based on my own volition. I don't like the food, but I do have to admit this is still better than a lot of the other fast food options. 3/5 Dining.

The milkshakes are always thick, creamy, and packed with flavor. For us, stopping at Cook Out has become a must-do tradition every time we visit the Charlotte area.
