    I've eaten a lot of different Chicken Kings in the past, but never this location. I tried to call my order in but the phone was never answered. When I arrived I saw why. That phone stayed ringing with to go orders! The lady at the counter was kinda pleasant. I'm not mad; in the hood sometimes you have to have a tough exterior. She answer questions I had. I see anything can be switch up or altered...mostly for a slight upcharge. My food came out hot and fresh. It was a lot for the price. Two adults and a toddler ate off the plate. Was hungry and realized I forgot to take a pic! I would definitely return, and I suggest everyone to try this place in the hood out!

    I've been coming here since grade school. The hot dogs have ALWAYS been bomb.com. It's a mom and pop type of joint no seating (they used to back in the day), you order, you wait, you enjoy. No frills is what I mean. I noticed the full menu wasn't on yelp so I decided to help you guys out!

    House special double cheeseburger. Sooo good!

    We had driven by this place many times but never stopped for a bite. Until last night. And since then I have been asking myself why I didn't stop here earlier. Sure, I'll be honest, the outside looks sketchy. In fact, I wouldn't recommend anyone to go here alone after dark, especially if you are a girl. But at the same time, I'll say you definitely SHOULD go here because this is such a diamond we found in the coal! When we got here, I asked the owner what was good. He recommended the house special double cheeseburger, which my boyfriend got, and absolutely loved. I didn't see a po' boy sandwich on the menu but was in the mood for one so asked the owner and he said they could make me one. And I was glad they did. It was delicious! I can't wait to go back here and try some more stuff on their menu. Although they call themselves "Chicken King," they have seafood, beef, lamb and pork as well. Tip: Minimum purchase of $5 required for credit cards.

    6 piece chicken wings! Seasoned to perfection!

    Greek salad was amazing! In and out in less than 10 minutes. The portion size was definitely a plus! Will be returning!

    One of the best gyros I've ever had. Small place. Good service. I recommend the gyro. The lamb meat is superb

    A South End staple, and for good reason! Went on Sunday and…read moreenjoyed my lunch immensely. I opted for the Entree (chicken) with two sides (mixed roasted vegetables and their feta carrots), and a glass of their sparkling white wine. The service was so kind and helpful, and the girl who took our order was the absolute sweetest. Our food came out quickly, and everything was great. The chicken was juicy and lemony; the vegetables were all PERFECTLY roasted and tossed in a variety of seasonings. The carrots were really standout, with a creamy feta sauce and tons of fresh dill. Even the sparkling wine (from a can!) was good! Can't wait to go back and try more.

    The food is good, and I really enjoy the atmosphere, which is why I've returned. Unfortunately, the…read morecustomer service was disappointing. During my most recent visit, I spent nearly an hour watching a staff member greet and check on every table in my section except mine. She made eye contact with me several times but never acknowledged me or asked if I needed anything. Being completely overlooked while everyone around me received attentive service was frustrating and made me feel unwelcome. I brought my concerns to the manager, hoping the issue would be taken seriously. Instead, I felt that excuses were made for the staff member's behavior rather than acknowledging my experience. That response left me with the impression that this type of service is acceptable and that the issue is unlikely to be addressed. That's disappointing because the food and atmosphere are genuinely enjoyable, but good service should be part of the overall experience as well.

    Imagine your soup falling through the bottom of your paper bag. The best outcome is you catch the…read moresoup and nothing is lost. You could end up with soup on you and saving some soup to eat. The worst outcome is the soup is compleyely lost as it splashes all over you and hits the ground. I got lucky and only a small amount of soup got on me and the rest wasn't lost. Lucky in one sense and not another. The soup container had a cracked lip, the lid was pressed on it poorly and together these caused soup to leak from the container and weaken the paper bag. Freshii could use plastic bags and avoid this. The staff could also not used a cracked container and probably have avoided this. I wasn't happy scrambling to catch soup as it broke through the bag. I was angry when I had time to examine the container and figure out what exactly had happened. I have pictures and will upload them. As for the food, it was alright. Not good, but barely ok. I really wanted soup so I got soup. I can only advise you there are better soup places for the same price or less. More service problems: you can try and call in an order but I am yet to have anyone answer. The app for iOS doesn't work like it should. I would only ever consider eating here if it is convenient and you double check your containers before leaving.

I decided to order the fiesta bowl with falafel and I was thoroughly satisfied. The service was great, food delish & the falafel was baked not fried. Everything on their me u can be customized & for a vegetarian/vegan there are plenty of options. I will definitely be coming back because my experience was very good.

    Not gonna lie, this place was a vibe that I really loved. I sat outside on their patio. This was…read moreduring the day maybe like 4pm on a Saturday and it was shockingly empty, but it quickly got busy there. I think we had just missed the crowd. Their patio is so fun, the street you overlook is pretty chill so there weren't a lot of cars or noise. The area has good enough traffic for decent people watching, that's always fun. Our server was so funny and cool. I wish I could remember his name, but he was having a good convo with the person I was with about basketball and it was just really nice. It felt like I was home on my couch hanging with friends. It's such a cool chill place. I loved the pizza, olives app and the old fashioned. It was nice to actually meet the owner too, he is the person who greeted us when we walked in and he was really nice. This place just seems like a good neighborhood spot. If I lived closer I'd probably go a lot more often. Great spot!!

    Review for Pizza Baby…read more After a relaxing Vinyasa yoga class and sound bath at The Coterie Wellness one evening, I found myself hungry--and conveniently, Pizza Baby had just opened in the same complex. Perfect timing. Since it was still new, the restaurant wasn't very busy, and I decided to grab a table outside. The outdoor seating was lovely--relaxed, comfortable, and a great way to unwind after a wellness session. I'm a sucker for thin-crust pizza, especially when it's hand-tossed and thoughtfully prepared, so one item immediately caught my eye: the rosemary pizza with hot honey. Sold. I added Italian sausage to the pizza and paired it with a fresh green salad (I can never resist a good Green Goddess dressing). Yes, it was a little on the pricey side, but the quality matched the cost--and I was genuinely pleased with my choices. The crust was thin and flavorful, the toppings were balanced, and the hot honey added just the right touch of sweetness and heat. This is definitely a place I'd return to--next time with friends--so we can share a few different pizzas and appetizers and really explore the menu. A few practical notes: * Parking is generally easy since the restaurant shares a lot with neighboring businesses in the complex * There are several nearby spots, including a wine bar and entertainment venues, which make the area feel lively * There was some early parking congestion when a nearby church held services, but the situation has since been addressed with signage and coordinated parking solutions It's nice to see businesses and community partners working together to make things run smoothly. There's also another location of Pizza Baby that I plan to visit, which speaks to how positive my first experience was. Bottom line: Great thin-crust pizza, pleasant outdoor seating, and a convenient stop after yoga or an evening out. A solid addition to Charlotte's growing food scene--and absolutely worth checking out. And if you're already in the area for a class or wellness session, it makes for the perfect post-workout reward.
