| - Today I decided to wander about in search of a decent, non-chain, lunch spot near work. A co-worker and I stumbled upon this great spot just south of I-77 near Carowinds on US 21. Upon our entry, I was pleased to notice the spacious dining area. Also upon entering I noticed the daily special clearly marked on the menu wall directly behind the cashier. Like many local cafes, this too had a great selection of American, Italian, and Greek meals. To my surprise, there weren't many people here at lunchtime. It could have been because of the snowstorm the previous night. As we approached to order, the friendly cashier pleasantly greeted us and gladly took our order. As I took my number card, filled our glasses with iced tea I was pleased to notice the cleanliness of the restaurant and the alertness of the staff.
Only a few minutes and a few quick conversations passed before our freshly prepared meals were laid gracefully on the table in front of our hungry eyes and grumbling bellies. I ordered a club sandwich(kind of my "judgement" piece) with fries and a side salad. My co-worker ordered a cheeseburger with fries and coleslaw. The portion sizes were above average, the ingredients were fresh. My french fries were delicious, the salad; light and crisp with a topping of home-made ranch dressing, and the sandwich filled with a tasty meats, cheeses, and tomatoes. My co-worker also exclaimed how much he was enjoying his burger which looked big, juicy and full of flavor. He and I were very pleased overall.
I am glad we decided to embark on a better lunch-seeking adventure today! With many other options and daily specials. I can definitely see myself going back for more as the days go by. Hope you find your way to this great cafe/restaurant.
PS - Leave room for dessert!
