Let me give y'all a quick rundown. I played just to show the entire meal. Sauce added before…read moreeating. Sweet potato - tastes like a sweet potatoes pie without the crust, but with walnuts added. BBQ beans - baked beans need meat..... remember that. There was also a succulent taste of Sweet bbq sauce mixed in. Hush puppies - eat them while they are hot. Reminds me of sweet cornbread bread that has been fried. I had the Chopped pork with vintage sauce. Thumbs up. The Chopped brisket with vinegar sauce was good. I liked it better when I added a spicy BBQ sauce to it. The Ribs, the ribs, the ribs..... tender to the bite and passed the fall off bones test. The meat had a Smokey flavor but was in desperate need of BBQ sauce. That's it ...... that's the post. #GratuityAdded #MonroeEats #IndianTrailEats #UnionCounty #CLTMuckbang #charlottesgotalot #clteats #foodiesofclt #cltfoodies #GoldenBulls #exploreclt #eatdrinkclt #charlottefood #WholeHogCLT #Eclipse24 #ExploreIndianTrail #cltfoodie #CLTBBQ #keeppounding #charlotteeats #ASMRFood #eatdrinkclt #TickleMeRibs #charlottefoodscene #cltfoodbloggers #springtime #charlottefoodies #cltagenda

Visiting our daughter at Wingate and she recommended the restaurant. Parking was interesting and…read moretook us a bit to finally find a spot. It is in downtown Monroe with street parking and some public parking lots. Our daughter said she has been there around 11:00am and got a spot on the street right in front. It is very eclectic with decor and items for sale. They have indoor seating, seating along entrance hall and outdoor seating. You order at one counter, which has a large menu boards above the counter. The young lady that took our order was very nice. You pay over at the bar area. It was not busy at the time we were there. I had the Salad Sandwich. You can get it with chicken salad, tuna salad or chickLESS salad. I had the chicken salad in a spinach wrap with lettuce and tomato. There are other bread options. The wrap was filled with the chicken salad. It was nicely seasoned and tasted really good. My husband and daughter both did the Pick Your Burger, a build your own. My husband had the burger with bacon, lettuce, tomato, pickles, grilled onions and pepper jack cheese. My daughter added bacon, lettuce, grilled onions and provolone cheese. They both said it was a great burger. We enjoyed our food. Definitely will come back.

We were looking for someplace that did low boils - and we found a place!! Shake Shake seafood does…read morelow boils for everyone individually making sure that everyone gets what they want! The seafood was cooked to perfection and was delivered promptly. Three things I would recommend to improve on: paper towels instead of napkins; make the fried calamari starter a larger portion; and make sure people eating crabs have the necessary tools when the meal is served. Overall this place was pretty awesome for an in-land seafood restaurant. Better than most at the seashore!! Highly recommend trying Shake Shake Seafood in Monroe. I know we will be!!

Loved the lettuce burger! Tasteful and juicy burger. I will go back again. Service was fast.read more

Now this is my kinda place! Came in recently with a buddy after finishing up a round of golf. We…read morewere starving and this place came highly recommended online so we popped on over. Classic family diner that apparently has been owned and operated by the same family for three generations now which is great to see. We came at an irregular lunch hour so it wasn't too busy which is lucky because I've heard this place can bring a crowd. It's not hard to see why! The two workers were super friendly and sweet and we enjoyed chatting with them. I elected to go with a cheeseburger and a chili cheese hot dog. Both were exactly what I needed especially the hot dog, I'm still thinking about that chili. Our meal was incomplete though. It still needed desert. I haven't had a milkshake in a long time but being in here made me nostalgic so I had to grab one to go! I got a Reese's shake just like I used to get as a kid and boy did I not realize how much I missed them. That's the kind of place this is. It has a wholesome and timeless quality to it that takes you back to a simpler time. It's not fancy or dressed up, just quality food made by quality people. I wish I lived closer but I know I will make it back.

I dined with a large party which the waitress seemed to handle very well. We had to wait a long time to order our food, but maybe that was because the waitress was making sure all of the party had arrived or giving us time to socialize. I ordered the popcorn shrimp with a baked sweet potato. It also came with a side salad.
