| - My wife and I ate here for dinner last summer - what a pleasant surprise! (I liked it so much that I went back for lunch two days later.) This is a fantastic addition to the Davidson/Lake Norman restaurant scene. The space this restaurant occupies has been a lot of different things over the past several years, but, hopefully, Restaurant X will be here to stay.
The food at Restaurant X is very reasonably priced for the Lake Norman area. The menu was somewhat limited, but I thought it offered a good range of selections. It seemed clear that the owners are focusing on preparing a handful of entrees very well instead of preparing a lot of meals poorly. My wife and I selected entrees that were well under twenty dollars, yet the food was still delicious. The owners of the restaurant are great, too! On the evening we went to Restaurant X they were eating dinner with members of their family at a table just down from ours. One of the owners came down to check on us and to apologize if they were disturbing us (which they weren't), and she ended up chatting with us for about five minutes.
Restaurant X has a pretty standard lunch menu - with sandwiches, burgers, and the like. My sandwich was very good on the one occasion when I went there for lunch. Lunch wasn't quite as reasonably priced as dinner, but it was still very fair for the quality of the food (and also very fair for the area).
Two other selling points for Restaurant X - the portion sizes are perfect and there is an outdoor seating area. If you are used to the portion sizes from major chain restaurants - portions sizes that require a forklift to bring to the table - then you may be surprised by what you receive at Restaurant X. The portions here tend to be much closer to what you "should" eat. You aren't going to leave hungry, but you also won't leave feeling sick from overeating. The outdoor seating area is nice, too. Restaurant X is small, so the outdoor seating helps to make the place feel a bit more spacious.
Restaurant X is a spot you should definitely try!
