The food & drinks were good. The 1 waitress that was working was doing an amazing job. She really needed help but she didn't let the pressure get to her. The fried green beans were my favorite. The fried pickles were good, but were a little soggy on the bottom. Both come with a spicy ranch sauce that is nothing to play with!! I had the taco salad. It was really good. Some of the toppings were fresh. The salsa was disappointing, especially since their spicy ranch was so tasty.This place has been there for a long time. I remember when it was a seafood restaurant. Not much has changed in the decor. The space is large and the open design it great. There is also a smell that hits you in the face that makes you want to walk out. If that smell is removed (probably in the old carpet) & the decorations updated, I could see this place as a go to restaurant.
This place should NOT offer call-in orders if they don’t have enough staff to reasonably accommodate them. Other restaurants and bars that offer this service manage to “prioritize their in-person customers” while also not laying the phone on the counter for 15+ minutes and loudly gossiping to each other, I will be ordering elsewhere
They left our server hanging. TRIPLE SAT. Apparently the OTHER server had a bad day. Our server was RUNNING to take care of her guests. She was tipped accordingly. Thank yo!
They leave you on hold and then hang up on you after you've been waiting... when you call back they say it's better to come inside to order... so what's the point in coming in? I wanted it to be ready by the time I got there. I'll go somewhere else...
Big Al's has been around fir many years. Even though they do not offer lunch specials any more the food is still outstanding and the pricing is still great. Timothy was our server and he was outstanding. He was running the entire floor area and served each table continously and courtesily. We shared the fried pickels, build your own calzone and chef salad which was more than enough to eat. We will be back again soon.
When we did a gps drive to this place it took us behind the gas stn , in front of a church with the bar sign still up. Its actually across the street from this stip shopping complex instead. Can't miss it.We walked in and it's got a seasoned sports bar kinda vibe to it. We sat ourselves and our server jennifer, our server was very nice. I ordered top shelf LiT and he ordered his usual coke. Food is mostly avg and my drinks were nice and stiff. Rr needs helps. However, our server was the best thing about this place. We'll be back for drinks maybe. 3* only because I sat on my jacket the whole time. Next time I'm taking the car cushion cuz The booths are like you're sitting on the courthouse benches.
The ultimate dive bar / pub in Charlotte.Wings are epic, food is excellent, beer is cheap, spacious and here's the surprise - great kids menu. Bring your kids during daylight hours and you can have a great family pub visit. Bring yourself after the sun goes down for a good party!
I’ve been here a few times, haven’t had anything negative to say until today. Called to place a pickup order, was told to let her make her way to the computer to put in... instead the phone was just sat down. Heard other people’s order being taken and I waited for 15 minutes before disconnecting. Called back 5-10 minutes later in hopes to get someone and got the busy tone due to no one coming back to the phone, noticing someone (me) had hung up and the phone was still on the line. Very disappointing.
Large variety of food, all that we tried was fantastic. Cool atmosphere and very kind personable attentive staff. Will be returning often
Good selection, good pizza and a huge menu to choose from. Attentive service. My biggest complaint is that the seating was probably the hardest, most uncomfortable thing I have ever sat on while dining in somewhere. May be a favorite among regulars, but the atmosphere just looked tired and in need of updating.
