Saw the restaurant on Food Network's Diners, Drive-ins and Dives. I was really excited to try it out and was not disappointed.
Great atmosphere with very homey decor. My friend and I had an appetizer of fried green tomatoes. They were served with a balsamic vinegar sauce that was excellent, the tomatoes were on the thin side, some tasted like only fried breading with no actual tomato but other than that they were good.
I had the BBQ sandwich with slaw while my friend had the fried oyster po' boy. Both sandwiches were a delicious lunch option and I would recommend getting both. Unfortunately I'm not from the Charlotte area so I don't know how many times I'll be able to test out different items on Jake's menu but I have a feeling most things would be pretty tasty.
