I love this place!!! I lived in Charlotte from 1994-1997.My now husband and I use to eat there every week when we were @ UNC-Charlotte. Nice little out of the place hole in the wall if you will. soon as we'd walk in great music PUMPING anything from Bob Marley to the "Gap Band". I'm talking an entire CD not XM. Let's start with the awesome Sweet Tea served in a Ball jar.... makes you proud to be Southern Onto the the Gee Whiz Beer (used to be a $1) Coldest Bottled BEER EVER....PBR and Busch never tasted so good. BUMP the LIGHT BEER. The food where do I start. ??!?! Throw Down Nachos with "HOT" Chili ,beans,jalapenos,cheese,sour cream etc.,....AWESOME.. The vegetable soup is the best I have ever had, even the garden salad with Italian ROCKS.. Always a special of the day...not sure what it is now back then...Meatloaf...WONDERFUL, Chicken and Dumplings, Alfredo! Ahhhhh the SUPER Sized corn bread chunk! Tastey...Mac& Cheese something to write home about. And last but, not least the BURGERS....on an Onion Roll DIVINE....lettuce,mustard,cheese,tomato,chili,slaw....HAVE IT YOUR way!!! Lots of goodies for the non-meat eaters.

Who could forget the WAIT staff? Very different looking bunch..in a GOOD way....no white shirt and khaki pants on this group. NEVER EVER had bad SERVICE...always GREAT never an empty glass. Restaurant itself has a great vibe and feel ..LOVED the Black and white pics of past and present wait staff.

We used to go back to Charlotte once or twice a year but, unfortunately it is now less and less but, when we do we always make a stop @ our all time FAVORITE Restaurant...Lupie's!!!!
