REDD'S SAMPLER REVIEW (Includes two sides and cornbread)…read more Here's what I ordered and my honest ratings: Sweet Tea - 7/10 Good, but not quite that true Southern sweet tea flavor. Collard Greens - 7/10 A little more tangy than I prefer, but still decent. 1/4 Rack of Ribs - 8/10 Great flavor, just not falling off the bone like I personally like. Beef Brisket - 8/10 A different cut than I'm used to, but still flavorful. French Fries - 10/10 Crispy, hot, and easily the standout. Cornbread - 7/10 Didn't try it this time, but from a previous visit it leans a bit dry. Parking: Street parking available. It wasn't hard to find--we only had to walk about a block. Accessibility: There are steps to get to the second level (about two steps), so something to keep in mind. Amenities: There is a bathroom that's spacious and clean, with a changing table and wipes, which is a big plus. Atmosphere and Service: The staff was incredibly engaging and worked really well together. Depending on when you go, they may also have a small market set up. Overall, this was a top-tier experience, especially when it came to the service and overall environment.

Found this place searching for wings on Apple Maps. Drove over for a pick up order but didn't order…read moreuntil I got there and waited to "take out". The place smells amazing....just like a great Kansas City BBQ place would smell. I decided to go with the two meat plater with two sides. I picked smoked chicken breast and wings with Mac and cheese and baked beans. Chicken breast: you could taste the smoke with a good flavor but it was cut very thick and was pretty dry. It ripped apart as I was cutting it. 6/10 would not order again. Wings: PHENOMENAL! They were massive and very flavorful. 10/10 would order again. Macaroni and Cheese: Great side would pick again after trying all of the others. Baked Beans: would use as a staple side and order every time I went to this restaurant for food. Staff: They were amazingly welcoming, friendly , and helpful. Honestly I wish I would have ordered in the restaurant and ate there. The service would have been awesome based off of my limited interaction.

On a recent road trip, from Salisbury to Mocksville, Statesville, Mooresville, then back to…read moreSalisbury, we stopped at a remodeled garage/store when we saw a band playing in the front of the now bar/store. There were covered tables outside, for seating, and a food truck was set up next to the entertainment. We were looking for a local place to get a quick, late lunch. We really enjoyed the setting, on the old Main Street of Mocksville, NC. We looked over the menu for the food truck and decided to give it a try. We ordered the BBQ chicken, BBQ spare rib sandwich, and potato salad along with the macaroni and cheese, for our 2 sides. Because of an arrangement with the bar/store, we weren't able to purchase our drinks from them, but they did have a variety of sodas, water, and alcoholic drinks. Everything was delicious. I am not a big fan of red tomato BBQ sauce but the sauce was sweet, thick and tasty. The meat slid off the bones, and was very tender. We loved the potato salad, too. I guessed most of the ingredients, but there was something else in the salad that boosted the flavor! When asked what else she put in the salad, Kay responded, "the special ingredient is "LOVE." Eric and Kay, the owners, were great. They were friendly, answered all our questions about the food, and where they can be found in the area. Their phone number is included so you can find out where they are usually set up. With the increased prices for anything connected with food, it was a little high, but in line with all the other food trucks in our Piedmont, NC area. We recommend this mobile restaurant for anyone who loves BBQ and eating outside, on-the-go, or to take home! Thank you to Eric and Kay for adding to the enjoyment of our day out.

I was really craving a steak so I decided on Momma Spriggs for dinner while I was in town for work…read more I got the mozzarella planks for an app, really big and cheesy. For my entree, I got the oak sirloin and double mashed potatoes instead of veggies. This steak was cooked perfectly and like in the name, it has a unique flavor from being aged in an oak barrel. The mashed potatoes were also fantastic. I got carrot cake to go which I enjoyed in my hotel. It does have nuts, and I do prefer carrot cake without nuts, but other than that it was delicious!

The crab dip on the pretzel had a great flavor but not a ton of crab. The pretzel itself was a little underwhelming. Service was good. The restaurant itself is very dinerish.

We are fans of food trucks in general because of the unique experience they provide, the random foods you can try and we like to support the little guys! My wife and I both ordered the pulled pork sandwich and she also had the macaroni salad. The pulled pork was just okay, nothing amazing. It was bland and they don't offer and extras like slaw. There was nothing that made it stand out. There was a lot of pork on the sandwich though which was good. My wife really loved the macaroni salad, it was flavorful and yummy! We did not try anything else but the other couple we were with said they tried the pork nachos before we got there but didn't like them. They said they felt it was made with canned cheese sauce and did not have much pork. Our food was ready within a few minutes of ordering which is good fast service. We don't know where they are from but it appears they serve South Central PA and the Carlisle, Shippensburg area.

Not a good experience…read more My wife and I arrived to a very empty tavern. Only 2-3 other patrons there. Didn't appear to be any servers on shift yet so the bartender was our server. Service started well enough. The problem started after we ordered. Wife got wings which she said were OK. Nothing special. I ordered shrimp tacos and my wife ordered the Pittsburgh salad. While waiting for the food, it started to get a bit busier and I had to go to the bar to get drinks refilled. I get it. It was getting close to happy hour on a Friday. Unfortunately, the food wasn't that good. The steak on my wife's salad was so overdone it was hard as a rock. Inedible. The shrimp tacos were FRIED shrimp. The menu didn't say this. I was expecting steamed shrimp or any other preparation except fried. It's unfortunate because the rest of the taco toppings were good. Had the shrimp been anything other than fried, it likely would have been quite good. Menu should be updated to reflect the fact that the shrimp are fried. Didn't really taste like shrimp....just tasted like fried breading. Yuck. The fries were way too greasy. I only ate a few bites of the tacos and let the bartender know so she was kind enough to take them off of our bill. Don't know that we will be back.

More kind and accommodating on the phone than just about any restaurant I've ever called. We came in like a half hour early, over the course of 20 minutes, cause we were traveling in multiple vehicles from ways away... I called ahead, but they said it was no problem at all. They were super helpful, I got drinks started while the rest of the party arrived. Ordered a bunch of appetizers... Mozzarella, sweet potato, waffle, fries, calamari... With like three different dipping sauces. Each of those was fantastic. Folks ordered burgers, chicken, cheesesteaks, traditional fair, like cottage pie, etc. Quantities were massive. Food was tasty. Many to go boxes were provided. The desserts were a surprise... I got my bread pudding to go. And then a few people got the lava cake and shared it. Great beer selection. Great cocktail selection. Great music on the speakers... At least I thought so, the Young'ns weren't as impressed with the sing-along Classics. Our server was beyond helpful, responsive, kind, accommodating,; probably one of the best I've ever had... Is that possible? Big party, I didn't check the details on the check... and the large party tip was included already. So I gave her too much cash for the tip, she stopped me on the way out and wanted to make sure I didn't screw up... Which I did. So she returned a couple bucks. But she earned every every bit for a tip yesterday.

Market Cross Pub in Carlisle feels like a staple of the downtown area, a traditional, slightly…read moreold-school pub that delivers about what you'd expect. I've been there a few times over the years, and each visit has been about the same: decent food, good drinks, and service that's friendly but sometimes a little slow compared to the crowd size. It's not exceptional, but it's steady, and there's value in that kind of reliability. The atmosphere is distinctly classic, with dark wood paneling, dim lighting, and an overall feel that's equal parts pub and old-school cigar bar. It's a little dated, but in a way that feels intentional--authentic to the town's character. You get the sense that a lot of local business deals and long lunches happen here, and that's part of the charm. The location is just off the main drag where most of the Carlisle festivals and events happen, which can affect how busy it gets. During downtown festivals, expect crowds, but otherwise, it's a good place to relax and catch up over a meal or a pint. Overall, Market Cross Pub isn't trying to reinvent itself--it's simply a solid, familiar spot with dependable food, friendly service, and an atmosphere that fits Carlisle perfectly.
