    Grade was good. Food was correct. Service was good. Tried their fried okra for the 1st time in a tray. Wish it was a bigger portion.

    This location does a good job on the food. But the poor girl taking your money at the drive-thru has no math skills at all. Sad.

    This diner was an awesome Yelp choice. Old school look with amazing service and food…read more My eggs were fluffy as well as my pancakes. The chicken wings were huge, fried just right and juicy. Kudos to the chef. Only negative is they offer a whipped spread instead of real butter. Delicious pancakes deserve good butter. I asked for real butter and all they had was honey butter. Do not sleep on asking for it. While it still spread, the honey makes it much better.

    We came to Charlotte for a concert and decided to stay the night instead of driving home. By the…read moretime we got settled in, dining options were pretty limited, so we searched online and this spot looked like the best choice -- and we're glad we found it. When we pulled up, there was a police outside, which didn't bother us. If anything, it made things feel more secure. They also use a metal detector when you walk in before being seated. Don't let that scare you off though -- this place is a well-oiled machine and everything felt organized and under control. Our server was fantastic: calm, attentive, and never pushy. I ordered the country fried steak with collards and mashed potatoes with gravy, and my husband got a burger. My meal was excellent, and it came with a perfectly flaky biscuit. The tea was Southern SWEET tea, too. My husband said his burger was good for a diner, fresh vegetables and the fries were seasoned well. The diner itself is adorable, full of character and charm. Overall, we had a great experience and would absolutely come back.

The owner was also incredibly sweet and took the time to talk with us about how the team went to Philly and did so much research before opening this place. You can truly taste the care and effort that went into it! The prices are more than worth it in my opinion , and every time we're in Charlotte, this is a must stop for us. Mouthwatering, packed with flavor, and absolutely worth any wait. I honestly wish they'd open one in Raleigh because we'd be there every single week. This place is officially a staple for us, and I cannot rave about these cheesesteaks enough. Thank you for serving the community and honestly don't listen to any review that isn't 5 stars.

I was very impressed at how quickly and…read moregraciously they not only messaged me to apologize, but also that they offered to refund based on the situation. While it was not a great first impression, I will be willing to give this place a second chance based on the follow-up alone! In times where customer courtesy and being a customer-conscientious business seems to have fallen to the wayside of pure profit and capitalism, I have to give full kudos as to how quickly and kindly this situation was handled. Well done and thank you for making me feel seen, heard, and valued!!! Just goes to show, voicing your experiences on these kinds of platforms can result in action :)

Everything about it was amazing. Keep in mind, the menu is small and simple, but they have perfected their craft. The lady who took my order was very kind and efficient, and my food was ready in no more than 3 minutes. I went at lunch time during the week. The food is on the more expensive end for sure, so keep that in mind. The food court in which Harriet's Hamburgers lies is a very modern, clean, upbeat area in Charlotte where everyone has a smile on their face is having a good time. Parking is free for 90 minutes and took 30 seconds to register, all super smooth. Overall, I can't wait to come back to Harriet's again!

After scanning the menu, I decided on the OG Burger to keep it simple. I did take note that all items are sold separately if you want fries and drinks. The menu doesn't have a massive selection, which can be easier for me at times. Since I ordered the side of fries, I also grabbed the sauce bundle for a fry party! The sauces were ok, but I don't think I'd purchase them again. The burger patties had good flavor and paired nicely with the fresh onions on the burger. The cheese was melted and layered between the patties bringing it all together. To me, the fries weren't as fresh as I would have preferred, but overall did enjoy the burger from here. Seating can be difficult depending on when you visit but we were able to find a table to enjoy our meals together with no issue.

    I have been to Shake Shack twice now, and I've really enjoyed eating here before seeing a movie…read more Their burgers are really good, and the fries are well-seasoned. The service has also been pleasant both times. On 7/26/26, Jamal was extremely friendly and made sure that I and the other customers were well taken care of while dining in. I really appreciated him going the extra mile and taking the time to tend to the customers. Great customer service can make a big difference, and he definitely made my experience even better. When you visit, you order your food yourself, and once it's finished being prepared, they call out your order number for you to pick it up. The restaurant is also located in a nice shopping area that, in my opinion, isn't too bad to drive through, and parking is relatively easy to navigate.

When I finally got the order, it was given to me with no verbal communication of any kind. No "sorry for the wait" to "thank you." The place was packed with people standing around waiting. If there was a manager on duty, no one saw them...just seemed like a bunch of teenagers working. The burger I received was lukewarm with a smash bun with some unidentified green substance on it. Ridiculous. Avoid this place. Go to the gas station across the street. You'll get better service and better food. And pay half the price.

So what's the next best thing to do? Yep ... you guess it, I made a trip to their location in NC. But the location it was in, at the light most drivers just made a big U-turn to enter into the shopping center. The parking was limited but manageable. I ordered culver deluxe, sourdough melt, onion rings, chili and a turtle sundae. They were known for their butter buns on their burgers and chicken and it didn't disappoint. The deluxe had two options of either with one patty or two patties. I wasn't sure how thick the patties were so I went with one. The combination with the butter bun, patty and other ingredients was the perfect delicious bite. I wasn't able to put it down until it was gone. Next time I'll order two lol. The sourdough melt was very tasty as well which I wasn't expecting a beef patty with sauté onions in between. I was only expecting cheddar cheese and the sourdough bread. Boy was I wrong. I got it with their onion rings over the fries. It was crispy on the outside and smooth on the inside as each one was delicious. A bowl of their regular chili was wonderful and they also offer chili supreme as well. Lastly, the turtle sundae was cold and refreshing. Like other fast food restaurants, everything is MTO but the only difference is that Culver's products are fresh and not frozen. They also bring your food tray to your table as when you place your order, you are given a number sign. The customer service from cashier, BOH, FOH and on the floor was outstanding! My cashier named Trinity was very energetic, friendly and patient. After my experience with this first time visit, I can't wait until the one in Virginia opens because it will definitely be worth the drive. I look forward to making a return visit to try other items on their menu.

From my experience, the customer service has consistently been great, and I haven't had any major issues during my visits. One thing to be aware of: they will tow cars that are parked there from the club across the street. I almost had my car towed when the tow truck driver mistakenly thought I was someone who had just left the club. Meanwhile, I was literally sitting there enjoying my Caesar McCrispy sandwich! Speaking of the sandwich, the Caesar McCrispy was really good and definitely hit the spot during my late-night visit. I've had a consistently good experience at this location and will continue coming back. Just make sure you're actually a customer before parking there, because they apparently don't play about towing!

Unlike some other fast food spots, the workers aren't sitting around talking to each other or in their phones. They're prompt, kind, and respectful.
