Of course, I'm here for the HOT DOGS! First, it's a red dog! It should be to be an authentic Carolina Dog. Tasty. This hot dog is assembled properly, with mustard on the bun under the dog. Then the onions, and chili. Slaw on top (although I prefer chili on top). Slaw is finely chopped, and sweet. Onions fresh and crunchy. The chili was not remarkable , but good. Could have used some mire chili. Bun NOT toasted which takes off points. All in all, a good hot dog, but not the best in Wilkes County. Two dogs, fries, and a drink for $11.50. Crinkle cut fries (frozen, not fresh cut) were good, hot, and crispy. This is one of many great places to eat in Wilkes.

The Philly steak wonton appetizer - incredible. The burger was one of the best that I've had in a long time. The bun was so soft and fresh, the patty itself was seasoned and cooked to perfection, and of course with fresh mozzarella, basil, and balsamic vinegar, you can never go wrong. We will 100% be back whenever we're in the area!! The menu is huge, there are so many things I'd love to try!

On their sides, the fries and green beans were both $3, but they WOULD NOT substitute the two. You had to pay a full $3 EXTRA to get a side that was the same cost as the fries. That makes ZERO sense to me. Good food, not a very smart policy.

This was a good dining experience. The server I had, no idea of her name, visited often and spoke…read morepolitely. I ate the 5-Item "make your own omelette" with all vegetables. Admittedly, I forgot to specify if I wanted any cheese on it so it didn't have any, but that's more of a customer error. If you're going, do know to specify cheese if you're ordering the Make Your Own Omelette. Regardless, it was quite flavorful and large, and the banana peppers I ordered on it (they give you a choice of 3 types of peppers) added quite the tang. There are also a lot of options for toppings when you make your own omelette, and a variety of food choices, from seafood to vegetarian options. The ambiance was nice as well, with the pictures and decorations fitting well together and making it feel cozy. Overall, I will be visiting again. Unfortunately, it has no root beer floats I know of, but it does have hot black tea you can steep at your table, which makes up for it.

I'm guessing that this used to be a private dining room for members of the oak Lodge but as…read morefraternal organizations have become less popular they have opened the facility to the public. We came for Sunday breakfast. In this part of God's country, there aren't a ton of options outside of chain restaurants for breakfast so we were happy to find this diner style place open. We arrived around brunch time as they were transitioning from breakfast to a lunch buffet but we opted for the breakfast. The scrambled eggs, sausage, biscuits and gravy, pancakes, and French toast were all very good. (Would prefer better syrup but for the price can't complain.) Service was spot on and coffee was $1. Can't beat that.

It is your…read moretypical diner layout with several tables (2-tops, 4-tops and a raised corner table) and 10-12 barstools facing the grill and cooks. I sat at the end of the bar and unfortunately the A/C vent was right above me and even with a sweatshirt I froze and the food got got cold almost immediately, as soon as the waitress set it down in front of me. That was my fault and just a heads up to pick your seat accordingly. Decent egg & cheese biscuit, I asked for extra crispy hash browns but they were the frozen ones and came out medium. Nothing a lot of ketchup and Texas Pete couldn't help.

I had been told to try this place out by a coworker, specifically their breakfast. On a whim I…read moredecided to go at about 11:45am, hoping they'd still be serving breakfast but they weren't so we had the lunch menu. At first glance, the place is very run down, it has the old southern diner feel, but I don't think they have enough employees to keep the place up 100%. Our waitress was very very nice, she was having to wait on folks and go back to wash dishes since they don't have a dishwasher (at the time of me posting this anyways). Half the seating was closed off and the lights dimmed. Aside from the scenery of the place, this is the type of restaurant you'd take your southern grandma too and she'd love it. You have all these southern dishes to choose from!! I was personally excited to see they serve liver mush sandwiches, so that's what I got. I added egg to mine and it was not expensive at all. It was very basic but gosh was it yummy. I also had a side of tropical fruit which came with pineapple, papaya, and peaches. All of that plus a sweet tea totaled to about 10 dollars. I tipped generously because I felt bad that they had no help. I truly do think this place could be buzzing with business, they just need the employees/help to do it. If you're in the area, I do suggest you go in and try the food, while the ambience/scenery isn't the greatest, you will be served with a smile and get some delicious southern home cooking. I wish the owners the best of luck.

First of all, staff were standoffish/very low energy, cutting us off when asking questions about the very very extensive menu. So, okay fine, moving on... I have worked as a barista in the past so maybe my expectations for coffee shops is higher than others, but even when I've asked for drinks to be made less sweet/no toppings/no whipped cream, they always come out still tasting insanely sweet. If you like dessert-in-a-cup styled drinks, this is your place! This is the first time I've gotten food here and tbh I would pass on getting breakfast here if I were to go again. The everything toast was okay, but very very over seasoned and salty so I couldn't even finish it, and my husband got an omelette with some veggies and turkey added. Turkey was cold and the veggies were raw and to be honest, when I'm paying $40 at a coffee shop, I expect to be able to at least stomach the food and drinks I'm getting. Other than the consumables, the interior is very cute and there's many seating options available.

Of course the current iteration of the MFG doesn't look at all the same inside and the owners/managers are different but that small town, community centered feel is still there. I was recently back in Mo. Falls and visited three time with my dad. He's there once a day anytime the door is open! So you can say that he's more than a regular patron. Service was relatively quick given how busy they were with those eating in and the stream of take out orders. Cash preferred it seems but cards are accepted. Here you'll find rotating daily specials on the dry erase near the door. You can find the daily vegetables on that board as well. Whether you are getting a veggie plate or a daily special you'll want to check the board to see all your options. I generally just take a picture when coming in so that I can read back over after checking out the menu. One side of the menu is breakfast and the other is lunch. Is this a change your life restaurant? Nope but they can't all be. :) Is this a place where you should stop if you want a homey, friendly feel and a bite to eat, sure is!

Texas, Alabama, Tennessee twice. And now, North Carolina. The ribs were bone dry, barely warm. The baked beans had been poured out of a can with no attempt to doctor them up a bit. Baked beans is one of the easiest things to make. Dumping them out of a can is just lazy. The collard greens were flavorless and mushy. The food was thrown onto the plate. It came out in two minutes so the ribs were just kept warm in a steam table. Explains why they were so dried out. They put the little cup of vinegar that the waitress had touched with her hands sitting on top of my greens so that anything that was on her hands was now on top of my collard greens. Gross. I ordered four bones and the size of the portion was way too small. It looked like two ribs, just because it had four bones in it doesn't mean it was four ribs worth of meat. I got up to go to the bathroom and when I came back, they had bussed my table and taken my food. Terrible food. Terrible service.

Always get an itemized receipt, always count your change, and always check your bag before driving away.
