| - on one of my visits to charlotte, i got to try this place out with a friend. i heard there's a counter in roswell, ga too, but ironically enough, it's too far. the counter location in charlotte was at least close to my parents' house.
we got there early and there was no line. the server explained everything to us. we were given clipboards and got to work making our decisions. we started with the fried pickles. delicious! i've had fried pickles before but they were super sour. i like that these fried pickles were in the between stages of cucumber and pickle. they weren't too sour and they weren't too cucumber-y. they tasted really good with the ranch and ok with the apricot dipping sauce. i'm not a big fan of mixing savory with sweet so i spent most of my time with the ranch.
i ordered the beef burger on honey whole wheat with sharp provolone, roasted red peppers, cucumbers, corn and black beans, and jalapenos with tzatziki sauce. it was really tasty. and what i liked most was that the toppings didn't overpower the taste of the burger. all the toppings were very light-tasting, allowing the burger to stand out.
it's not the best burger i've had, but i liked that you can make your own burger. almost like a five guys with a lot more options although you are paying for the difference.
it's a very good lunch-spot to visit but get there early or you'll have to wait in line. after we left, there was a line forming out the door.
