A small spot for a big appetite!…read more I hope you get to meet Allison because she made this experience worth it. I would have been lost without her and our Mountaineer son to guide us. You can order from a kiosk, the QR code at your table or Allison can help you. I had a bacon cheeseburger and my guys had burgers with seasoned fries. The food arrived very quickly and was cooked to perfection. Be warned: the seasoned fries are VERY seasoned fries. I snuck a few of my hubby's to taste but I'm sure I wouldn't have been able to eat an entire order of my own. I wish I had room for a shake because they looked incredible. Maybe next time!

The food here was outstanding although I thought the portions were on the smaller side for the price, the old adage "quality and quantity doesn't come in the same package" applies here in my opinion but I'd definitely return when I'm back in the area. The fries were outstanding and fresh cut to order and the chicken tenders were some of the best take-out or dine in I've experienced in a very long time. The drive through was a continuous flow that wrapped the building during our visit and the inside was just as busy but the staff demonstrated great skill in getting the food out in a reasonable time with a friendly smile and a thank you for coming in. If you like great chicken you'll love this place...

The inside is typical diner kinda place and everyone happy with their food selections.

Things seemed moderately busy at the Cardinal on the Sunday evening when I stopped by. There's not…read morea ton of parking, by the way, given the restaurant's roadside location. But I wiggled my vehicle into a tight spot and went in for a burger and a beer. I believe there were about 10 to 12 options available on tap, and I went with what was listed as an Irish stout from somewhere in the Northeast. It wasn't bad, though it seemed more like an imperial stout. My sandwich choice was the Cowboy, with ground elk at its core. It was a good choice too, and the accompanying fried onions and melted cheese complemented the meat well. I ordered the burger medium, but I think I'd go for medium rare if I could go back in time. The medium option wasn't bad, but I think a little less heat and a little more moisture would only make things better. I kept things simple with the side item, going for the fries which were of the thinly sliced McDonald's variety, not bad but nothing remarkable. The server covering my table was pleasant and prompt, though soft spoken so I occasionally had to ask her to repeat herself amidst the music and noise. I wouldn't call any of these selections a bargain, but the prices didn't veer too far from what you'll find in many burger joints. All in all, not an earthshaking experience, but a place I'd be willing to go back to. 3.5 stars.

I am beyond disappointed with this place. My boyfriend was at Elevation 3333 tonight, and what he…read moresaw was seriously disturbing. Like, actual disgusting racism happening right in front of everyone, and the staff couldn't care less. He saw this Latino guy just trying to grab a drink at the bar, and this group of white women just absolutely went off on him. They were screaming slurs and calling him the most terrible names. It wasn't a joke or a misunderstanding; it was blatant, sickening, targeted hate speech. This is Boone, right? It's supposed to be chill, but apparently, not at this place. My boyfriend immediately went to the bouncer--the guy who's supposed to keep things safe--and told him exactly what was happening. And the bouncer's official response? He said he couldn't do anything. Seriously?! A grown man is being harassed with racial slurs, and your security just shrugs and walks away? That's not just unprofessional; that's actively letting racism happen on your property. It's like they're totally cool with it. I am livid. My friends and I are DONE with Elevation 3333. No way are we giving business to a place that allows blatant disrespect and racism to run wild and then won't lift a finger to stop it. This is beyond gross. Spread the word--if they let this kind of stuff happen, they don't deserve our money.

There are several in the area so it really was a blind choice tk end up here. I like the atmosphere here. Reminds me of the bars up north. Rustic bar with a dining area of tables and chairs. And of course patio seating for those who enjoy eating outside or bring their dog with them. Our server was the bartender. She said early Saturdays weren't always busy and that's why she was alone. She was very friendly and efficient. Typical bar food but some with extra flair. A salmon sandwich. Burgers and chicken sandwiches kicked up a bit. A good variety and interesting choices. NOTE: They DO have allergy protocols in place. Make sure you tell your server if you have any allergies. Nice to see restaurants doing this. I ordered the cheesesteak all the way with max n cheese. There are several sides to choose from. Wife got the VooDoo chicken sandwich and fries. She said it was excellent. Mae got the Mountain of Nachos with chicken. All the food was excellent. The nachos could sleazily feed 3 hungry adults. Just be aware if you order it. It's massive. Love the atmosphere, food and service. Will definitely go back when we visit Boone. $41 + tip for three good lunches. I don't mind paying for good food and service. Give them a try.

Visiting in town for work and couldn't check into my hotel and stumbled upon this gem. Stepping…read moreinside, I felt like I stepped back into the 70s. The colors, the decor, the patterns-everything reminded me of life in the 70s. I loved it. The restaurant uses QR code for ordering and menus. Once you scan for the menu, you can order directly from there. The waitress offered but it seemed easier to complete everything at once. They have a good variety of breakfast items including plates, sandwiches, pancakes, etc. It wasn't too busy and they have nice outdoor seating if you catch the weather just right. The wait team worked together-it seemed like they worked in sections rather than having one person focus on one table at a time and they seemed to have a good working relationship. I found the food was very well seasoned, portions were good sized, and it all arrived hot. The home fries were great-perfectly seasoned and crisped. I would definitely visit again.

Southerners and all others will claim it's heresy when I share that I do not like biscuits. It took…read moreme a while, years actually, to come to the realization, but if offered any type of breakfast or other sandwich on a biscuit, I always choose the *other option. Biscuit on the side? Nah. But DAMN do I love Everybody's Loaded Biscuits. Everything about them is *chef's kiss* Each and every biscuit is flavorable, hot, and fresh. The biscuit is both crumbly and also moist. "How?!?" you may ask. Well, I think it's because the loaded biscuits have local Ashe County cheese baked right into it. Oh my gosh, it's so good. I am a bacon and egg kind of girl so that's what you'll find me ordering, along with the local Fire on the Mountain hot sauce on top. Note: eggs perfectly cooked, bacon thick and crispy, and hot sauce adds enough flavor but does not burn your mouth. As I noted in the "tip" section on here, the sausage comes as a link (think hotdog) instead of ground patties. The best way to know what's up with ELB is to follow them on social media - Facebook, Instagram, etc. They post their food truck location (usually Watauga Farmers Market or Howard Street) and any other news here. Make sure if you ever visit Boone you go out of your way to enjoy a breakfast from here one morning. Get there early before they sell out, and don't be surprised to find a long line!
