If you don't understand then I don't really know what to say. The food is great, the staff works hard, The building is a landmark. The customers are great. The beer is cold, the burgers are fried, the pickles are fried. Even the fries are fried :>>>))) Try a full blown HEMI with mustard chili and onions with an order... more

a great neighborhood landmark more

We waited for over an hour, which was fine, based on what we'd heard. Once we got inside, it was a bit smoky (could have been worse, but still...). We had the fried pickles, which were good (it's hard to screw them up, though), but they made my girlfriend sick later. I had the BBQ pork plate, and I'm not... more

This friendly funky place is a great place to grab a burger, fries and coke at lunch, but in no way is it Charlotte's best restaurant. It is a fun throwback to the 1950's or 1960's, located in a neighborhood and building that time forgot, but apparently not the locals and diehards who pack it between noon and 1 every... more

The wait is worth the value and quality of the food we received. Wait staff is the best, fast and friendly. Burgers are very good to excellent - although fried. We always get a small order of fried pickles and have always been hot and crispy. The FF are the same. Beer is cold and fresh. Don't know what all... more

TWO WORDS.....Fried Pickles. OMG! This place was great. When reading the reviews I didn't know what to think so let me clear the air for others like myself. First, this is NOT a "ritzy" place. It has a real "down home" feeling and the staff is amazing. Second, most of the food is fried. If you are super healthy and... more

Fun local flavor with interesting atmosphere and a good, cheap menu. A great unique setting, but the food is nothing amazing. It's diner food and not the best diner food. If you come from a small town where all you have are little dives, this won't be eye-opening, but if you are a local and you want something different with... more

#1 of over 1,ooo restaurants in town?! not sure how that is done. it is unique and has a great local cult following i guess. fun place to visit for local flavor of area if you are into that stuff. setting is more for a young alternative crowd. upscale older formal patrons will be as out of place as a... more

I don't see what the fuss is with this place? It's small, crowded, loud, smokey, fried food galore. A local took me here, we waited for 25 minutes, and once inside I didn't understand why we waited. It's loud, full of young people with lots of ink, (nothing wrong with that mind you). It's like a punk version of "Arnold's",... more
