| - I should just say fried oreos and leave it at that. Fried oreos!
I tried this place because I read a blurb in the South Charlotte News that they were accepting canned goods for Loaves & Fishes. I hadn't heard of them before that, and when I got there, I found out why (they just moved to the location on 51 from Concord).
I ordered the special; chicken and waffles. The fried chicken was good; and piping hot. I had to wait a couple of minutes before I could handle it. Once I could, it was nice and juicy in the inside. It came with a side of gravy, but I'm not that in to gravy, especially on chicken, so I didn't try it. The waffle was good, too; plain, with a side of syrup.
My husband ordered the reuben, and that was delicious; piled high with corned beef, on marbled bread. His side was mac and cheese, which I tasted, and would highly recommend. It was a bit smoky, which was an unexpected treat. He also ordered a glass of the sweet tea (he's a connoisseur; I don't touch the stuff), which he said was very good (expected, considering it's the name of the place!).
For dessert, we shared the aforementioned fried oreos. It felt like we'd gone to the fair. The plate came with 4 oreos, which was more than enough for 2 of us to share. They were awesome! The cookie (chocolate) part got soft, and the insides (the creme stuffing) got gooey. I'm not sure I could eat this more than once or twice a year without inducing a heart attack, but as an every once in a while treat, they were great.
The service was really good. Quick and pleasant and friendly. I could hear all of the wait staff constantly checking with each other to make sure that every table had what they needed.
I'd definitely go back!
