| - Ok. Let me start off by saying that Tuesday's are the BEST day to come here if you want a cheap, not so fast, meal. $5 burgers -&- fries/tots (circa $5.38 w/ tax). This is why it automatically gets 3 stars. The downside to this is that their demand + quality = unsatisfactory @ times. They started making the burgers (meat portion) all "well done" which allots the burgers to become dry. I personally like mine medium-rare because it remains juicy and is not overcooked. The tots/fries are a hit/miss depending on 1) party size & 2) the number of customers ordering. This also has an effect on the overall service. When I was there, the waitress messed up over half of the orders because she did not write it down. When I did get my food, the tots were basically croutons. My burger was on the point of crumbling into dust b/c it was so dry (and I added ranch, ketchup, and a fried egg was on it). The drinks are definitely overpriced. They are located by UNCC, so they should absolutely lower the prices for drinks for students. The actual venue is set-up nicely, but it was extremely cold and the waitress did not know how to adjust/turn-off the ceiling fans (or didn't even try for all I know). Overall, the price for the burgers + fries/tots is worthwhile, but how they handle customer volume needs to be more embedded in their training program. O_o

Update 11/19/2014 - Bar Louie is now making you buy a fountain drink if you get the $5 special. Therefore, your bill is now roughly $10.00 w/ tip included. I went there for the $5 burger + tots, not for a freaking soda. I will not be back here for a while because of this peculiar & random add-on. Thanks Bar Louie for ruining the special. I will not tell anyone else about you guys! o_O
