We recently stopped here on our way from NC to VA, and we think this will be part of our travel…read morerotation. We look for highly rated restaurants, close to the interstate and which have outdoor seating because we have dogs. Bringing water for our dogs and cups to take our sweet tea with us, our server, Kiersten, was the epitome of friendly southern hospitality. The barbecue was delicious. You could see the smoker on the property. What set this apart was the choice of sides. There were several sides such as green bean casserole and creamed corn that you don't see at other barbecue joints. We will definitely be back on our next trip to NC.

I wish I took more pictures! We stopped by on our way home from the mountains and had such a…read morepleasant experience. The smoker in the parking lot is how you know you're gonna eat some amazing bbq. We got the cheese curds as our app and they were the best I've ever had like absolutely insanely delicious. It was hard to choose what to get cause everything looked so great. We all really enjoyed our plates. The meat was juicy and flavorful and all the sides were yummy except the cornbread which was really dry. The creamed corn was my favorite! The sauces were right on the table and they had great options. Plenty of seating and a nice ambiance. We were all stuffed and had leftovers to take home. Our server was so kind and very attentive and if we are ever driving through again we would 100% come back. Very impressed!

Get one for the table to share! Absolutely delicious bloody Mary's and service is always with a smile - no matter how busy and crazy it gets! The owner is always checking on tables, bussing them when needed. Check them out - the outside isn't very flashy, to say the least - and we wouldn't have thought to stop In had not our friends invited us to join them to be Sunday after church. So glad they did! We love it!

More tables had trays and dishes on them than people. There wasn't many people sitting, a lot of staff around, but no tables getting bused. Not sure what changed, but isn't the same since I been here last summer.

You can't go wrong with Jason's Deli. Not only do they have a great lineup of sandwiches/subs, but…read morethey also have a massive salad bar that can be your meal as well. We visited this Jason's Deli during a recent trip, and for a first time visit, it was up to the same standards as the other Jason's Deli restaurants that we have been to. You order at the counter and pay before sitting down, which ensures that your littles don't change their mind a million times. We got the beefeater with chips plus a one trip salad bar, the kids pizza, and a turkey and cheese sandwich. They used to have turkey and cheese sandwiches on the kids menu, but have removed them, so my littles sandwich was adult-sized and lasted two days. The salad bar is massive, and there's something for everyone on there. We sat in one of the many tables within the restaurant, but there are also booths if that is what you would prefer. The decorations told the history of Jason's Deli and provided for some informational reading as we waited for our food. The beefeater is a massive roast beef sandwich that comes with au jus for dipping - so good! The kids cheese pizza is always just warm enough to eat immediately, but not hot enough that it will burn the roof of your mouth. I didn't realize until after our meal that I actually had a birthday reward for a free dessert, and the staff was kind enough to let me use it after the meal. I chose the strawberry shortcake, and it was pretty tasty. It was big enough to share with my table, although some opted out in lieu of the free ice cream. It was a welcomed stop on our trip, and if we're back in the area, I'm sure we will visit again.

I was visiting friends that moved to NC recently. While they were showing me the shops in Union…read moreSquare they mentioned that they hadn't visited this restaurant yet. So we decided that we were going to give it a try. After looking at a menu and being approached by the host who gave us a brief introduction to the menu we were in for sure. We asked to sit indoors with it being a windy and somewhat humid day. They have plenty of outdoor seating with umbrellas. We were informed later by our excellent server, Ashlee that there is also seating upstairs! We forgot to take a tour! The decor is very chic, but not overly done. We were seated at a table, but booths are available as well. Even the women's restroom with chic. It needed to be picked up a bit but was nice. Our server Ashlee was excellent! Her upbeat personality and friendliness was in the 10 rating! For only being at the restaurant a couple of weeks I think her vibes will keep bringing customers back. But not only her vibes, the food is very good too! My friends were very happy with their main meal, me as well! I had the Chicken Panini and the companion (side dish) I selected was the Pan Fried Corn. Both very good! We did order shareables too! The Southwest egg rolls and the Charcuterie Board. We were very happy with both! I would definitely order them again. I ordered two alcoholic drinks. My first drink was called the Bees Knees (ginger, honey, lemon bourbon) and an Espresso Martini. Both were good. The ginger was very mild in the Bees Knees. We were quite full so we were not able to enjoy our desserts at the restaurant but did order them to go. We ordered the Crème Brûlée and Key Lime Cheesecakes to go. I enjoyed the Key Lime, a good balance of sweet and tart. A little perfumme for me but still good.The feedback on the Crème Brûlée, was ok. I didn't try it. When I visit this area again, I would surely come back here and try some other items on the menu. Parking in this area can be quite busy, especially on the weekends. We came during the weekday in July after 1pm. We had to circle a few times before we got a parking spot. Come early!

When I went to use the bathroom about an hour later, they had heavily perfumed the restuarant.
