However, on both visits, the food quality, taste, and presentation coupled with a low sanitation grade of 92.5, gives me pause. Persistently poor scores = poor food. Simple as that. Great diners are a thing of beauty and Monroe needs more of them. C'mon Gus--up your game! Until then my "Give 'em a Whirl" is mapping me elsewhere.

He double-checked that the order was correct and made sure I had extra utensils, condiments, and everything we needed. That level of service really stands out. It meant a lot to me because this was something special I was doing for my team, and Sean helped make sure it went smoothly. Thank you again! Although I didn't get pictures of the food this time, everything was amazing. I will definitely be back and will take pictures next time. Please check them out, won't be disappointed.

First and foremost, I want to preface by saying I believe in second chances and redemption, not…read moretrickery and bribes. Typically, when someone from a restaurant reaches out to me about my review, especially when they are not 5 star, I instantly become skeptical. However, this owner made me feel comfortable to share my thoughts and explain how my visit went before anything else. Over the years, I have received tons of owners offering me a free meal in exchange for my integrity but I could tell this owner was extremely genuine and wanted to make sure my voice was heard. The initial post will remain the same but I wanted to amend some of the initial remarks including the service. The first time I tried this place, I received service that was not in alignment to the core values and standards this restaurant upholds, which, I am human and I have worked in food service for years so trust me, I get it. Since being back twice since my initial visit, I have been treated like family. The service has been up to par and the staff has been incredibly friendly. As far as the ambiance, it gives the feel of an old diner which makes it charming and lovable. Perhaps, some restorations and furnishings can be done nothing that isn't manageable. Lastly, I wanted to make sure to do a thorough review of the menu so when I went back twice after my initial review, I tried a menu item for each the breakfast menu and the dinner menu. The food was great! It was favorable, warm and packed with fresh ingredients. I tried the ribs and Mac and cheese as well as a breakfast plate on two separate occasions without letting the restaurant know I was coming back for a remake. The only thing I wasn't super thrilled about was the Mac and Cheese, other than that it was good. It goes to saying that their standards are commendable as they do care about their service, food and experience of the customers.

You get pretty much exactly what you'd expect: your typical breakfast platters, diner-style coffee, and delicious pancake stacks ;) It's not necessarily a daily go-to for me, but for visiting NC with a larger group, it's a solid option with something for everyone. One thing to know: it gets very busy. Get there early or come ready to wait ;)

Instantly transported through time as it looks like a 50s diner. I believe we walked in around 2:30pm and they were closing at 3 pm but a lot of other customers were walking in as well trying to get a last minute sandwich. Now, you can tell the workers working in the kitchen and behind the counter were younger kids because they were not very communicative or explained the menu well. We would ask a question and they would just reply with "yes" , "no" or look at us like if we should already know. Either way we ordered two sausage dogs and their Carolina BBQ dog. VERY DELICIOUS! A perfect little pick me up on a Friday afternoon. Their sandwiches looked delicious as well and if im ever in the area, I will def return and try other things on their menu. The owner was very friendly though and made sure everything tasted great! Lots of side street parking in the area. Oh and side note, they only accept cash.

You gotta look for the old school sign. If you pass the correct entrance, you can drive to the back and circle around the fence. Once you get in the door. Sit yourself and someone with a nice smile and southern manners will help you with your gastronomic needs. The surprise is the pebble ice that I love, yes I'm wierd. They have daily specials which come with lots of sides to get down the main spotlight. I drank water so I can not comment on the iced tea. It could be brown kool-aid or a minor color pack candidate.
