Shelby, NC. Where do I begin. I've been traveling through this town for many years as it was always…read morea travel connector to both sets of grandparents who lived in Forest City as I was growing up. Never ever considered stopping for food here because getting through the city on 74 is tough enough as time seems to stand still here because no one, and I mean no one is moving quickly here. As the current situation is Shelby is now the half way point from my our home to where my daughter and grandson moved 1 1/2 hours away. Tuesday night we made the trek to pick up the grand for a sleep over, meeting half way at The Creekside Clock for dinner. In the entry way there is a sign stating that food is made to order so please be patient. OK. We got plenty of patience. Walk up to the counter and place your order, HUH??? Can I take a look at a menu? Sure, put on your glasses and read from the menu board. Sorry! I wasn't prepared for that. Menu looks great. There is a lot of variety and daily specials. We placed 3 separate orders, probably the first mistake as we were all sitting together, just not paying together. I am not a fan of paying before you get your food. Tip? What am I tipping? We sit with our little numbers on sticks at our table and a waitress comes to review our tickets and bring our drinks. So far so good. Ok now we wait. I can see the kitchen window and there are 6 heads in view and they appear to be super busy prepping and getting out the food. Apparently that wasn't the case. First order arrives, baked potato and chicken sandwich looks yum! A side salad was also delivered. A good bit later my meatloaf and fiancé's combination seafood plate and the grands shrimp. All looks good, alas, there is nothing on my plate that is even warm. I Asked if they had a microwave they could reheat my plate, it was that cold. Found out also that the chick sandwich and potato that was delivered first was not warm either. Still waiting on a steak and steak tips at this point everyone else was pretty much done with their food. The steak was good, again the potato cold. I am really shocked by all of the good Google reviews for this place. Although the menu looks nice. For them to boast that food is made to order, and not even serve the food warm along with the horrible execution, this was a one and done for us!

The…read morefood took almost an hour because they ran out of ingredients, ran to the store and didn't tell us. They were out of drinks as well. We ended up nixxing half the order and just taking what was ready after an hour. Their saving grace was that they were respectful about the mistake and did not give off with any anger when we were trying to come to a resolution after me needing to leave at the hour mark. I just paid for what was ready at that time and the person gave me a coupon if I decide to come back. I don't know how the food is yet so this review is just for the service.

I had the burger with brie, bacon, and bacon jam with sweet potato fries and hubby had the jalapeno popper burger with regular fries. Both of them were cooked to perfection and loaded with flavor. The sweet potato fries were not overly seasoned which allowed the taste of the sweet potato to be enjoyed. Great beer options (hubby tried the triple berry sour from Lenny Boy) - I am not a beer drinker but it was very tasty. Our waitress, Laurie, was very friendly and attentive. Parking is street side, bathroom was clean, sports on tv but not loud - you can have a conversation with people at your table.

We had to wait for a little while before the host ever came to seat us but our waitress immediately came and got our drinks. I ordered my favorite, the 4 Cheese Mac n Cheese with honey pepper chicken and my husband got the grilled chicken sandwich with fries. Food came out pretty fast but my pasta was cold and the bacon was burnt. I was hungry and it wasn't terrible, so I ate it. My husband said his chicken sandwich was ok but it was definitely not worth the price they charge. We probably won't be back just because the food really isn't worth the price.

I saw that this location had a 1.6 rating on Yelp, my grandmother and I used to come here years ago…read moreso I thought I would try them out again. Let me tell you I was not disappointed, our server Elizabeth was excellent, the food was so good, we got the 2 for $25, I got the chicken tenders(I added onion rings) and y'all let me tell you they were great, they actually had chicken in them. My husband got the Cheeseburger it was so good. The kids got the taco, it was a little overcooked but they said the chicken inside was good. The place needs some updating but it's expected from a business that has been there a long time. The music was pretty good not too loud. We will go back.

(no reservations allowed) -Ambiance-New, clean, and appropriate -Food-Inconsistant and incorrect- Salad orders mixed up-4 out to the 7 were wrong (dressings, toppings, etc.) Steaks-five purchased steaks (4 filets, one ribeye) One, the ribeye, was cooked adequately, the rest were over cooked. Filet orders-Medium rare, received, two mediums, one medium well-done, and one (mine) was Weldone-medium- and one bite that had a hint of pink. Oddly enough, that was the bite that was absolutely charred on the outside. We should have spoken to the server, but he was so busy he didn't come back for 10-12 minutes. Disappointed, but hopeful they can pull it off in the near future.

Extremely disappointed with LongHorn Steakhouse. The ambiance was nice, our server was great, but…read morethe food was not. My meal came out cold, I sent it back (which I hate doing) and when it was returned, it was so over-salted it was completely inedible. I didn't want to send it back again, so I ate less than half and ended up with an upset stomach all night. When I called the manager the next day, I received no apology or concern--just a flat response about issuing a refund, which was for a smaller meal despite paying for a full entrée. Overpriced food, small portions, poor quality, and zero accountability. I will never return. Do better.

Great food and great service! I saw a post about this place…read moreso had to come try it. The atmosphere is very cool. Feels like being at your Grandmas house for Sunday Supper. I got the Patty Melt with Mac n cheese and it was delicious! My hubby got the pulled pork sandwich with the white slaw on the side and fries. He said it was divine! We also got the hush puppies as an appetizer and ate them with our meal. The hush puppies come with their own tartar sauce that they make and it is so good! We loved this place and will definitely make it our "date place" and try everything on the menu.

The place was more crowded than IzzyQ ever was!? I believe it could be because the drink prices were more on par for Shelby. The menu is really nothing too special...wings & burgers...ordinary apps. We just put our toe in. Had a beer and appetizer. Beers $3.50/$4.50. Appetizer was about $12, though very generous. We had the Buffalo Chicken Dip with pitas. IMHO I think tortilla chips would work better than the pitas. There was a lot of dip and not enough dippers. Pita a bit heavy for me. Maybe offer two different dippers. Have people pick...chips and pita or celery and chips or pita and chips. Lots of servers! Lots of TVs. We'll be back for a big game.
