    Choose A Burger - Angus Chuck Beef burger Sweet Potato Fries
    Jana J.

    I always love to come to Karondas on my vacations to North Carolina. I love the 6 piece chicken tender appetizer tossed in the asian chili sauce. The frog chips are great

    Cheesesteak sandwich with "frog chips" & Cheeseburger with sweet potato fries.

    Great food, great prices & great service! Cheesesteak sandwich was unique, on Texas toast. Took the chance to get the frog chips and they did not disappoint, thicker than a normal chip but still crispy! They were delicious. We had beer as well and were excited that they had a good selection including several Red Oak beers.

    Stopped in for lunch with my mother in law on the way to her doctor's appointment. She had been to Karondas many times but I had not and wanted to try it and I love me some good bar food. The place was nearly empty at lunch time on a Thursday, not a good sign. They had CBS on one of the TVs so my MIL got to watch Y&R while we ate, she was happy, lol. One server was working and she was very friendly and efficient. My MIL got the ribeye sandwich and loved it. She gave me a bite of the steak and it was very well seasoned and super tender. Her side was the friend green beans, loved these too. I ordered the club with awesome onion straws. The sandwich itself was okay. The turkey and ham were sliced much too thick which ruins a club for me. The rest of the toppings were tasty but a bit sparse, I removed the middle piece of bread to make it heartier. We told our server we had to leave by 1:30 to make an appointment in town and she was great with our time constraints so kudos to her. I might return if I'm out that way but wouldn't make a special trip.

    A little pricy, but the ribs are amazing. I also love the variety of sides. The serving sizes are more than enough.

We took…read morethe family and a few of our kids' friends for dinner, and the food was noticeably better all the way around. The mozzarella sticks were hot, crispy, and perfectly melty. My triple-decker BLT was huge! Great proportions and plenty of juicy bacon, with a tasty side of well seasoned onion rings. My wife's chicken tostada came in a fried, crispy and fluffy tostada shell that was light and delicious. All of the kids loved sharing the tenders, boom boom shrimp, wings, and cheese curds. Everyone found something they liked -- the menu has a good mix for both kids and adults. The atmosphere is laid-back, with TVs on every wall showing just about any game you'd want. Our server was spot on, friendly and attentive. She was in the middle of training a new staff member who shadowed her the whole night, and she didn't skip a beat. It's a great local spot just minutes from home, and now with even better food. We will definitely be back!

I don't approve of these changes. And unfortunately, my Thursday wingstop will probably change to somewhere else. Because I just can't eat ten and I don't like to warm them back up. The staff is still awesome. It's just more of a personal opinion and also, what fits in the budget. If I did this every thursday, I'd be spending twenty dollars more a month for food that i'm not gonna eat. I'm a strong believer in half portions!

This time I decided to keep things a little more Atkins/keto friendly and ordered a grilled chicken salad and a cup of chili. The total came to just over $26, with the salad alone costing almost $17. I understand prices have gone up everywhere. I can accept that. What I can't accept is paying premium prices while the overall experience falls short. The first issue started before I even got inside. The restaurant was packed, and customers were parked all along the curb directly in front of the designated to go pickup area. That completely blocked access. It took me nearly ten minutes of circling the parking lot, backing up near the dumpster, moving again, and eventually squeezing my truck into a parking space (in the "to-go" pick up area where I'm supposed to be anyway) just to pick up my order. When you're that busy, parking becomes part of the customer experience. At some point management needs to step in and help keep traffic moving instead of allowing the pickup area to become unusable (don't tell me I'm wrong because I'll tell you what not only did. I have to navigate that situation due to cars being along the curb in front of the to go area, but two other vehicles that were parked in the to go spaces had nobody in them and I was there for 10 minutes waiting for my food so those people were inside eating in the restaurant I presume-given that I observed their empty vehicles for a total of 20 minutes). To be fair, the employee who brought my order out was excellent. She greeted me with a smile, was friendly, professional, and was easily the brightest part of the entire experience. Then I got home and opened the salad. For $17, this was honestly disappointing. The chicken, bacon, and toppings had simply been simply tossed in there, while the rest was mostly plain, sad looking lettuce. It looked rushed and careless, especially considering the price. The first of several photos are exactly how the salad looked the moment I opened the container on my kitchen counter. I hadn't touched it or moved anything around. The last photo, however, my awesome lady was able to turn that same salad into something amazing in just a couple of minutes. SHE chopped up some pepperoni that we already had in the refrigerator, diced a little Colby Jack cheese, added tomatoes, mixed everything together, and finished it with ranch dressing and a level 10 appearance on the plate. She didn't have to cook anything. She simply took the time to prepare it the way a $17 salad probably should have looked when it left the restaurant. The chili was good, and I'll absolutely give credit where it's due. Drake's still has menu items I enjoy, and I've had plenty of good meals there over the years. But when you're charging premium prices, customers deserve the same level of quality whether the restaurant is half full or packed to the walls. Being busy explains delays. It doesn't excuse lowering the standard. I genuinely hope Drake's takes this as constructive feedback because I know they can do better. I've seen them do better!

All of the employees we encountered were very friendly. Ally was our server and was AMAZING. We told her it was our first time there and she gave us some great recommendations. They also made a really good margarita and I am not typically a fan of traditional margaritas. The food and drink recommendations she made for the table were great, and the onion rings are definitely the best ones we've had in the area since relocating here. Both sandwiches we had were great. The Chicken Philly had a little bit of a kick to it, which made it a nice change from usual Philly sandwiches and the Cuban was different from a traditional Cuban as it had some barbecue sauce on it. It was a little different for me at first, but I ended up really liking it. Both salads were pretty big and both people really liked the salads. The person that got the blackened grouper Baja salad thought that the grouper was fabulous, seasoned perfectly and loved the salad overall. This will definitely be a place added to our usual rotations...

Great casual atmosphere, the staff have really come into their own, and the food is simple but has little touches that often make it a small cut above most other sports bar type places around. My favorite things to order are the smashburgers, chicken philly (almost as good as the one at Old Town, a restaurant also belonging to this same owner), and now the fish and chips. I decided to get those last night, and the fish was two good size thick cod filets, fried and breaded perfectly. The fish was flaky and tender, the remoulade it came with really elevated it, I'm glad it was not plain tartar sauce (gross). The appetizer favorite here is the pulled pork nachos for me, otherwise, we usually just get meals. If I had one small complaint, it's that the tea is usually brewed pretty weak. Steep it a little longer, and you've got me fully hooked.

Also, when we asked about the specials listed on the flyer, we were told there were no specials, which was disappointing and felt like false advertising. The food was good, although I do wish it was served a little hotter. Overall, it was an okay experience. The music was great, and the atmosphere had a nice vibe.
