Portions are huge for the price. We had the pasta and couldn&#39;t finish it, so we took half home. A decent spot if you want leftovers.

Seated fast on a packed Friday. Food came out quick too. Got the chicken sandwich, it was solid. Exactly what you need when you just want a quick bite and to get going. No fuss.

Had a lovely dinner here. The ingredients were so fresh, especially the greens in my salad. You could really taste the quality. A nice, light way to end the day.

The staff were super nice! They rolled this little cart around with all the sauces and brought our food right to the table. Also helped us figure out the ordering kiosk, which was a lifesaver.

The biscuits are pretty good here - huge and fluffy with a nice crispy outside. The self-serve bar with all the jams and flavored butters is a nice touch. I liked the peach rosemary spread.

Found this spot when everywhere else was packed. The breakfast sandwich was so good, and the cromuffin was a nice surprise.

Love that this place is so dog-friendly! The outdoor patio is huge, perfect for my pup. The rotating food truck smelled incredible today, had to grab something. Great spot to unwind with a beer. 🐕

The soft serve is really good, especially the strawberry twist. The portions are huge though, so maybe get a smaller size.

The burgers are always fresh and the fries are solid. But I really like the vibe in here - the lighting is warm and the booths are super comfy. Just a nice, relaxed spot to grab a bite.

The sourdough crust on their wood-fired pizza is so good, chewy with that perfect tang. We shared the sausage and kale one with friends, and it was just the right vibe for a casual hangout. 🍕

The grilled chicken salad lunch special is $10. Chicken was a little dry, but the fruit was fresh and crisp. Good portion for the price.

The grilled fish tacos were so fresh and the flavors just popped. A solid downtown spot for a quick bite.

Dylan was super helpful when I asked about the menu. The burgers were exactly what we ordered, which is nice. The space itself is really comfortable, not too loud or crowded.

The staff really makes this spot. Super friendly, they remember your name after a couple visits. Feels like a neighborhood joint. Prices are fair too, which is a nice bonus.

Great spot if you&#39;re seeing a show at Harrah&#39;s Cherokee Center. We grabbed a quick bite before our event and it was super easy. The walk over was literally five minutes.

Will was a great server, really knew the menu. Food came out fast, and the place has a nice cozy feel. Solid spot for a casual dinner.

Eli was a great bartender, super attentive. The place is also really good with food allergies, which is a nice touch.

The rooftop is so cozy and peaceful. Our server was really sweet and attentive, which made the whole evening feel relaxed. A lovely spot for a quiet dinner.

Been coming here for years. Server suggested the table-side guac and fajitas, solid choice. The guac is fresh, fajitas sizzle just right. Margarita on the side hit the spot. Lunch was good.

As a celiac, I really value the clear gluten-free labels at the salad bar. The greens were crisp and fresh. Paired nicely with a simple glass of Sauvignon Blanc. Felt safe and relaxed for a change.

The bartenders are super friendly, and the vibe is chill. Got the classic wings this time &mdash; crispy skin, sauce had a nice kick. Solid spot for a casual bite.

Had the Ciabatta BBLT for breakfast. The eggs were really fluffy and the ingredients tasted super fresh, which I always look for. The apple fritter was a nice treat, not overly sweet. Grabbed a loaf of their bread to go &ndash; it smelled amazing.

Patio was perfect for a sunny evening. The mushroom tostadas were the star. So much flavor in each bite. Curry was good too, but the tostadas stole the show.

The old house setting is really cool, lots of little rooms to sit in. Gives the place a unique feel.

The grits were so good I had to stop and just eat them for a minute. Perfectly creamy with a little rosemary. Honestly, some of the best grits I&#39;ve ever come across.

The Killer Bee and Golden Latte are so unique, had to try both. The decor is really fun, all those plants and the warm lighting. Just a cool, relaxed spot to hang out for a bit.

The Gulley fish tacos here are solid. Reminded me of the ones I used to get in San Diego &mdash; fresh cilantro and that sauce is really good. Hit the spot for a casual lunch.
