Cute place with great eats but most of all the service was amazing. Sarah was the best and the owners John and Judy make you feel like you’re stopping in and visiting family. Definitely will be back.

Awesome food and fun karaoke! I had the prime rib, mashed potatoes, and string green beans with a large glass of water for dinner in the bar dining area then made my way into the karaoke room and sang a song.

The KJ (Karaoke Jockey) has a small stand in the corner, a fun light show, and wireless mics for singing. There is enough room for dancing, although very few came out and danced for the freestyle intermission music. The karaoke picture is not of me. It’s a random person I do not know, but wanted to include the karaoke room as part of my review.

Reasons I did not give a 5 star:
1. The KJ sound is not clear as he goes too loud for the room type (He should really take the owners advice as he was a soundcheck guy back in the day).
2. The KJ allows for silence in between songs and does not have interim music in between singers each time. Only a few times did I hear this.
3. The KJ has no assistant, so there’s no help on getting people signed up or when you are next. The KJ is a one-man band so there were a couple of times where I had to go behind the singer to get to the KJ to discuss singing or when it was my turn, which can be awkward for most people.
4. The KJ did not interact with the crowd. There was no engagement.
5. There is only one monitor for the words. I personally like to work the room (I do not like to just stand in one place) and although I chose a song where I knew the entire song by heart, it would have been nice to have a second monitor at the other side of the room for the lyrics.
6. The restaurant serves Pepsi products and not Coke, but that is not necessarily a deal-breaker as I drank water all night. Plus, I learned of the back story from the owner that the Coke representative was too slow to get back to him where as the Pepsi rep was more proactive.
7. The women’s bathroom still needs a divider in between the two stalls so currently when you use the restroom there are two toilets to choose from and only one person can use the restroom at a time. The owner let me know that the dividers are a project in the works so this should be taken care of soon.
8. The location of the restaurant is at the end of a road that kind of has a backwoods feel. Until you arrive at the restaurant, it feels like you are in a deserted area with a road that could be wider. Coming from Concord, the commute is maybe 20 minutes. Something to consider when going out, but the food is amazing and the karaoke was fun!

Note: I JUST noticed my karaoke picture of the person singing came out blurry. I will have to go back out and take another one!! (Pics taken 7/12/19)

Girlfriend took me here today for the first time (for both of us) and it’s a very cool little place to come eat some great food at decent prices. My first thought as we pulled up was “This is a total local/Biker hangout” (in which I happen to be more than okay with). Waitress was very friendly, and the food was great. We both got cheeseburgers and fries. Their fries are real, hand cut and fresh and the burger tasted amazing. Will be back for sure.
