I'd heard all the rage about Penguin, and had tried to eat there quite a few times to no avail because of the long line, but after eating there on Sunday afternoon, I now understand why. Great diner atmosphere complete with a fantastic wait staff and all the while with a simple southern charm - love love love it. My friend and I got lucky and scored seats at the bar right away. I ordered the some sweet tea, the falafel sandwich on pita - he got a burger - and we split some fries. Neither of us could even touch the fries because we were so full at that point. Great food, cheap, awesome atmosphere and fantastic wait staff with attitude - I'll be back the next time I'm in Charlotte-
