There is also a record player, tons of records and comics and lots of great art on the walls. We ordered the bahn mi and the protein bowl, both were so delicious! (That bahn mi, tho) and they were incredibly accommodating to our kids dairy and peanut allergies. If we lived in this area we'd be regulars. Thank you for an incredible dinner experience!

We stumbled upon this place while visiting downtown Lenoir. It was around dinner time so we decided…read moreto go in and try it. I must say this is the best hidden gem restaurant I have ever come across. The staff were also very nice and friendly and were willing to help you with the menu selections. The restaurant is large with plenty of seating even to accommodate groups. The dining room is filled with old nostalgic Coca-Cola, Pepsi, antique gas pumps, and local state memorabilia. They even have a wood fired pizza oven in the corner of the dining room. While there on this quiet Saturday evening we tried the homemade baked lasagna and Chicago deep dish style pizza. The lasagna was 100% homemade including the homemade in-house sauce was very fresh, one of the best lasagnas I've ever had. The entree also came with a side of garlic bread and a small house salad. The Chicago pizza was cheese and we added, with mention from the owner, fresh mozzarella slices and fresh basil. This was a game changer and it totally changed the dynamic of the pizza. This may be the best deep dish Chicago style pizza outside of Chicago. This also came with fresh house made sauce and fresh sliced mozzarella cheese. We will definitely be returning on a regular basis. This is my new favorite Italian/pizza restaurant.

I wanted to share my experience of what happened to me on the afternoon of November 14th at a local…read morerestaurant in Lenior. Cafe 1841. I stopped into this local restaurant/bar the other day to celebrate my birthday after an appointment, and what started as a really great afternoon turned into one of the most uncomfortable experiences I've ever had. I arrived a little after 3 PM, ordered some drinks, and was enjoying myself with no issues. Around 5 PM, the owner arrived with her parents. The owner's mother walked up to me, poked me, and told me I needed to move because that was "her friend's seat" and they "always sit there." She hovered behind me, gripping the back of my chair and repeating things like, "I'm 87 years old and I have never..." without ever explaining what she meant. The whole interaction was intrusive, disrespectful, and honestly shocking. A kind woman I had met earlier went to speak with the owner. When the owner/manger came over, she explained that the woman was her mother and that they were "dealing with family stuff," as if that excused what had happened. Being told that the behavior was essentially excusable because it came from her own family made the situation feel even worse. She offered to pay for my meal or try to fix the situation, but after being poked, pressured, and essentially told that my presence didn't matter compared to their "regulars" made me feel unwelcome and even unsafe. I chose to pay my own tab and leave rather than sit there after being disrespected and physically touched by a stranger. It's disappointing, because the atmosphere and staff seemed great at first. But no customer should ever be treated like that--birthday or not--and personal family issues do not justify disrespecting or touching a guest. I hope they address this behavior in the future, because no one should have their experience ruined the way mine was.

Homemade goodness. Well seasoned. Not greasy. Everything I've had is just lovingly executed. I had the baby back ribs lunch special with homemade potato salad AND baked beans with a roll. Realized I was Mmm-ing and stomping my foot while eating. Not kidding. IT WAS THAT GOOD. Tender ribs with that perfect pull with the most incredible homemade bbq sauce. Tomato based, little sweet, little heat, bottle it I wanna take it home! BEST potato salad I've EVER had ( don't tell Mom or Grandma). The beans are a meal in themselves and can be eaten with a fork. Sweet tea is so good I drank the 1st cup immediately. It's not as sugar heavy as "Southern" sweet tea is. Y'all know what I'm talking about. Homemade desserts are a must try. Any/all of them. Service is so friendly and welcoming. Always a joy to see their smiles. Orders come out quick and correct. Clean. Clean. Clean. Open ceiling showing no dust. Floors & tables are kept clean. No sticky menus. They have a 100% sanitation grade. I love it. Decor is kept simple. Cute signs, a few pictures, & some memorabilia. Just enough to feel homey. Check out the dessert case. Even a Mrs PAC MAN and a quarter push game. PRICES ARE ON POINT!! For food & service this good? YES!! Here's my money! The quality and quantity makes Perkz a good deal!!
