| - Two things made us visit. First, a recommendation from my boyfriend's coworker. Second, $3 well drinks on Saturday night. Knowing that they had a nice patio to sit outside and enjoy the beautiful Carolina weather didn't hurt either.
We walked up to the host stand and first impression, well I really didn't have one. The host was neither pleasant, nor rude, just kinda there. After selecting a table, and then having to move because the music was too loud, we were greeted by our server, T. She. Was. Awesome. It's sad that I even have to type this, but it's been a while since I've had service that was on point. T was extremely pleasant and provided exceptional service to us throughout the course of the evening. In addition, she was able to answer our questions, while along providing us with recommendations on the menu. 5 stars for the service all around.
As for the menu selections, well they certainly had some interesting concoctions. Starting off with the Red Neck Poutine, which consisted of tater tots smothered in Velveeta cheese, mushroom PBR gravy finished with bacon crumbles, immediately my arteries were not a fan. My taste buds, unfortunately followed their lead. I really wanted to like this dish, but it just turned out to be a waste of calories. Moving onto the main course, I selected the Turkey on the Tracks and my boo went with the BLT with Egg. My sandwich came out looking great, but after taking the first bite, I knew it must have come from the Silicon Valley, because this bad boy was richer than Steve Jobs. The bite of BLT with Egg that I had was great. I wouldn't say this place is a total loss, I think I may have just ordered the wrong item, especially since we started with a heavy app. The prices were great and there were plenty other selections to choose from. For 3 bar drinks, an app and 2 sandwiches, we walked away spending less than $40.
My last qualm with the place was the music. It was almost unbearable. I kid you not, the radio station they had playing went from Hanson to Psy's Gangnam Style then to Gogol Bordello. The fact that we had to talk about it for more than 5 minutes made it an issue.
I'd give this place another shot, but don't think I would ever consider this a "go-to" sandwich joint of mine.
