I'm a fan. Chris' is another Charlotte staple mostly frequented by locals. Chris himself still works in the kitchen during lunch. I'm willing to bet he's there all day.
It's an old fashioned menu, layout, and staff. Their subs and Greek salads are what keep me coming back. My only gripe is their selection of sides. I don't know how they've gotten away with that potato salad, macaroni salad, and cole slaw for all these years. None of them are very good.
Go after 1:00 to miss the rush. Get a sub and a cream soda. You'll be happy. Do not expect any frills.
