Twisted Ribs
Michael A.

My wife and I have had the pleasure of eating here twice now and both times we were not disappointed. We got the crazy ribs which were phenomenal, slightly crispy yet melt in your mouth tender, they were perfectly cooked. The steaks were excellent as well, can't go wrong with a chargrilled steak. The NY strip was perfectly trimmed, the only fat left on it was like butter. The ambiance is very soothing and elegant but not to the point where you'd feel uncomfortable eating here with your kids. Overall another good experience.

Ribeye Steak (12oz) with loaded potato
Keith W.

This was my 1st time at chophouse and I was thoroughly impressed. The service was top notch very attentive and accommodating. The food was cook fresh and brought out immediately, I also loved the environment it was very spacious and clean and a place I'll continue to enjoy.

Side salad
Eric O.

Dinner with co workers. I had the 9 oz sirloin with asparagus. Started with a side salad. Salad was good , nothing special. Steak was very good, nothing usually great. Nice experience. Friendly staff. Cool old building. But two nights ago I ate at TRH , had basically the same thing and it was much better.

Parmesan crusted chicken + coleslaw
Natasha H.

Went back just a couple weeks after our first experience and wanted to try a different dish. Boy am I glad I did, it was delicious!! And the Twisted Ribs were just as good as I remember from the first time. Our server did a pretty good job for a busy Friday night, though I did run out of my drink and had to ask for more. I really love their set up and decor, it's a mix of modern farmhouse, some glam, and some urban vibes with the ceiling. It's really fun and a nice option in downtown Kannapolis.

Beverage Menu

I recommend! Ambiance was contemporary, service was attentive and food was good! I ordered fried chicken sandwich with 101 barbecue. The bbq sauce was good, I ordered mine on the side! Mac and cheese was good, sweet potatoes fries wasn't a fan. Drinks delicious! I ordered Paloma and Sangria.

Came in for graduation dinner and was pleasantly surprised. The decor is very nice inside love the exposed brick look. The chairs were comfortable and tons of space I like they didn't try to stack tables on top of each other. Our server Julie was just great did amazing with larger party and everything came out perfect. The bar tender is the next super star all the drinks tasted great. Next time I'm in the area I will be stopping in for sure. I had the filet and it was cooked perfectly! The cinnamon butter for the bread is so good!

Bacon cheeseburger with fries
Juliana D.

Nice place in downtown Kannapolis. Service was really quick and everyone was friendly. I started with the loaded nachos. They were fine, a little cold though. Then I got the bacon cheeseburger and fries. The burger was cooked perfectly. I also liked the bacon a lot. The fries were very good as well. Overall, it was a nice place with reasonable prices as well.

Pros: Reasonably priced menu Casual elegance Walk up bar Fast seating and service Easy parking (it was not a game day) Cute location downtown walkable area Cons: I didn't care much for my teriyaki salmon because I expected a sauce that was a tad thicker sticker and slightly sweet. Mine was on the salty side as if too much soy sauce was used. My shrimp was fried a bit hard and tasted like the oil was starting to get scorched. I imagine parking is difficult when there's a game at the stadium. There might also be a wait to get seated. You have to get the twisted ribs. It worth a visit just for the ribs, and that whipped cinnamon butter that they serve with the bread. I truly enjoyed this restaurant. Nothing pretentious. Just a classic menu with something for everyone. Chicken beef fish pasta wings burgers etc. Our waitress Zoey was friendly, gave recommendations and attentive service.

We were late in the game to make reservations for NYE. Using opentable we found a spot here for 8:30pm. Great! We arrive early so that we may enjoy a drink, first. We were called early to our table which worked out since, unbeknownst to us, they were closing at 9. We ordered our meals and then just enjoyed ourselves. We were given 2 rolls and when my husband asked for more we were told that they were out, or not making them any more. We thought that was strange. They did bring us 2 more rolls. We noticed the restaurant clearing out. My husband's salad was served, not mine. The waitstaff was not around for some time but once they came back out I asked about my salad. She looked dumbfounded like, what salad? Eventually my salad was brought out with my meal. Ok. We each ordered 9 ounce filets, medium. They were closer to well-done, but still tasted fine. Our check was brought to us with our desserts. It really felt rushed. If you close at 9 and you are a sit-down restaurant that allows 1.5 hours per table (as posted on their sign), DO NOT ACCEPT 8:30 RESERVATIONS. This was our second time coming there and while we want to support local, not chain, restaurants, I really see no need to return.

Cheese fries
Abel H.

Saw a couple pictures online and decided to give this place a try , I did not regret the hour long drive at all , it was some of the best food I've ever had and the service was phenomenal. I am usually a steak type of guy but decided to try the fried chicken sandwich tossed in medium sauce , and it was by far my favorite it was perfectly cooked and just the right amount of spice I was looking for. The appetizer was simple cheese fries but even that was over the top and was great. My lady friend got the 6oz steak and this was the fastest I have ever seen her eat a steak (she's usually a slow eater) the sides were also very good and just overall a great experience !!!

On a visit to the Charlotte/Kannapolis/Concord area to visit all of the NASCAR Team…read moreGarages/Headquarters, we stopped into Old Armor Beer Company while exploring downtown Kannapolis. Our visit here was on a Thursday evening in July. We have been to this area several times, but never visited Old Armor until this trip. Typically, we find ourselves here in the mornings when it is not open. However, since we already had dinner and were looking for something else to do downtown at night, we stopped in for a drink. It appeared to be one of the few businesses open around 10 PM. As stated, this is located in the heart of downtown Kannapolis. There is street parking nearby, as well as parking garages. I do not believe Old Armor has their own dedicated parking lot. I was pleasantly surprised to learn that this establishment is dog friendly! We had our dog with us, and were happy that he could come inside and join us. This was actually part of the reason we chose to visit here, since we could bring him inside with us. We actually saw a few other dogs in the building when we first got there. The ambiance here was quite lively during our visit. It was line dancing night, so the entire front of the place was cleared out and full of dancers both young and old. There were a lot of patrons when we visited, but not so many that it was overcrowded. It was darker with some accent lighting and disco balls, which perfectly fit the vibe for the evening. To the left of the front door was an area with tables and chairs for those not dancing. There were also some cocktail tables around, along with more tables in the rear, and outdoor seating. This is a large space, and would have plenty of room for any size party coming in. Several TVs that were playing various sporting events hung around the perimeter. The bar was located near the middle of the establishment. Due to the dancing, we took our beers outside and enjoyed them in the outdoor seating. It was a nice night, and the outdoor space is a good setup. There was a satellite bar setup out there, but it was not in operation the night we visited. The wait staff at the bar were very friendly and helpful when we were ordering. We were able to sample any of the beers on tap before committing to a glass. I ended up ordering the Red Leg Corn Lager, and my fiancé ordered the Mango Tango Bravo. I personally had never had a corn lager before, but it was nice and crisp, and something I really enjoyed! Something I really admired about this business was their commitment to the armed forces, police, fire, and other essential responders and personnel. They had a pay-it-forward board for them, along with nods to those groups in both the theming and the beer imagery. We very much enjoyed our first visit to Old Armor. The beers were good, the staff were friendly, the atmosphere was exciting and the patrons of the place were all very nice. This is a great spot in the heart of Kannapolis to enjoy a drink and take in the atmosphere of downtown. We will definitely be returning on our future trips to the area!

There was a beard competition in process when we arrived, so it was a but chaotic walking in because it was being held near the front entrance. Most of our group had the Charlotte Hornets Stinger Ale - $3 a can, but they had a large variety of beers. They are focused on honoring honor veterans and first responders , which is evident throughout place. They are located across from Kannapolis Cannon Ballers Atrium Health field. We ordered some food, which was a bit confusing at first. There is a kiosk in the corner, you place and pay for your order and you receive a text when it is ready. We split a Protein Bowl, which was better than we anticipated. It was packed with rice, lettuce and beans. It also had a significant amount grilled chicken drizzled with avocado lime crema. Everything was good and definitely worth stopping in.

They lost a star because there were little too many bugs flying around. I ordered a drink that had a sugar rim and the mix she had made for the drink had tons of bugs flying in and around it, so I had to switch to beer. The food..we did the deviled eggs, which were good, not a wow just your basic deviled eggs nothing fancy. We got the smoked wings, fish and chips and stuffed hush puppies. Everything was good. The stuffed hush puppiss stole the show for me. They were stuffed with pimento cheese and came with a side of this garlic butter! They were absolutely amazing and so flavorful. The wings were also very good, we got the cheerwine BBQ I've never heard nor had but man, so good. The fish and chips were good. Excellent cooked seasoned fries. Two nice pieces of fish. For me the fish was little over fried, but still very enjoyable.

Towel City Tavern has two floors and is connected to the baseball stadium. Only the first floor was open during my visit. The Cabarrus Brewing Co. serving tanks are what you see as you enter. If you order a beer, it will be fresh as it comes directly from the tanks, as it is brewed on site. The restaurant's name pays homage to the city's textile roots and the towels made at the mills. The restaurant design also incorporated the town's history with Cannon Mills. The restaurant has an industrial feel with the open kitchen, high ceilings, concrete floors, exposed brickwork and steel structures. The tables were crafted from a 160-year-old tree that fell on the mill property. There were garage doors that likely opened during the games. They offer a $10 lunch special that includes a drink, side and entree. The $10 menu had a lot to select from: sandwiches, wraps, salads, wings, and a burger. I went with the All-American burger and fries. My burger was a good size, cooked to order and tasted great. The fries were really good, too. Service was great and attentive too. I was even offered a tea to go. My waiter got me in and out of the restaurant fast so I could get to the Music Hall of Fame on time. I did stop at the mural again on my way back to the car. Parking was free in the street spots and no time limits. Although I am not sure about the rules on game days/nights. With my favorite mural on the building, I have a feeling I will be back again to try more menu items and maybe see a ballgame too.
