We came here on an early Sunday evening on our way back from a weekend getaway. The restaurant was…read morevery clean and spacious, and the seats were very comfortable. I ordered the vegetable quesadilla which came out very hot and was plentiful. The server was attentive, and the food came out very quickly, even though there were several guests there. There was a separate bar area that was not noisy and TVs were around the restaurant. We'll definitely go back if we are in the area again.

Last week, I found myself in western North Carolina, just outside of Charlotte, for a running event…read morein Gastonia. That said, my hotel and dining radius leaned more toward Kings Mountain, NC, so that's where this story actually takes place. I arrived a bit early, checked into the hotel, swung by the venue to grab my packet, chatted with a few fellow runners, and then the most important question of the evening came up. Where are we eating? After a little web surfing, I landed on a spot called 238 Cherokee Grill. It was conveniently located near both the venue and the hotel, which immediately put it in the lead. My friend Jeff and I pointed ourselves in that direction. It was a Friday night, and the place was buzzing. We were told there would be about a 10-minute wait for a table. That slowly stretched into more like 15 to 20 minutes, but when two seats opened up at the bar, we made a quick executive decision and grabbed them. The bartender checked in fairly quickly, despite being clearly slammed. Once we had their attention, we ordered right away to keep things moving. I went with the classic burger, upgraded with lettuce, mushrooms, grilled onions, and a side of fries, ordered medium. Jeff went with the Smothered Chicken. The food came out in a reasonable amount of time, and everything hit the bar hot. The burger leaned a little more medium-rare than medium, which honestly worked in my favor. Good flavor, solid burger. The fries were hot and crispy, exactly how I wanted them after a day of travel and packet pickup. No complaints from either of us. Portions were solid, and the prices felt fair for what you get. The only real downside was that initial wait. There isn't much of an entryway to hang out in, and with the cold weather outside, that part wasn't exactly comfortable. That said, the staff was friendly, the service was solid, and the overall experience was a win. Would I go back if I'm in the area again? Yep. The menu had a few other things that caught my eye, and I'd happily give them a shot next time.

It's a small place in the parking lot of a gas station and there's only one table for outdoor seating. It seems like this is really intended for takeout although since I was the only person around I went ahead and ate at the table. The food was very good. I stuck with a very basic lunch: A cheeseburger basket with french fries and an Arnold Palmer. The burger was good. Not the biggest burger but it was clearly cooked while I was waiting and it was very fresh with a nice flavor to it. The toppings were all fresh, too, and complemented the burger nicely. I had chili on it and enjoyed it. The chili is kind of sweet but had a lot of flavorful and really added a lot to the burger. The fries were the best part. They're larger fries (though not wedges/ steakhouse fries) and they're cut into long rectangles. They looked really nicely cut and had an excellent flavor. Not terribly crispy but good; clearly homemade like fair fries. They has a few different options (hotdogs, cheese steaks, and wings. The price seemed a dollar or two higher than what I'd expect but the food was hot and cooked fresh so that seems reasonable.

We ended up nixxing half the order and just taking what was ready after an hour.

I just paid for what was ready at that time and the person gave me a coupon if I decide to come back. I don't know how the food is yet so this review is just for the service.

The fried whiting was a great portion fried perfectly, flaky, and the plate was very filling. The coleslaw was AMAZING! The only downside was that the food was a little too salty for my taste, I got the seafood boil, but now that I know, that's something I can ask to have adjusted next time. My only real disappointment was the "butter." It tasted more like movie-theater popcorn butter than actual butter. Definitely not a fan of that.....yuck! SERVICE WAS TOP NOTCH, wish I remember her name. Overall, though, the food was delicious, the portions were great, and we will absolutely be back!
