Gabe was clearly busy on a Saturday night but still stayed attentive to our table of six. He walked us through the specials with great detail, offered thoughtful recommendations, and clearly knew the menu inside and out. Food - The reason we came, and it did not disappoint. Our table enjoyed shrimp cocktail, duck spring rolls, rack of lamb, and the King Tut special--every dish was a hit. The large sides were truly shareable for all six of us. The scalloped potatoes, in particular, were incredibly cheesy and scrumptious. Overall - It was our first visit, and we will definitely be back. The only downside was that the hostess seemed visibly overwhelmed by the Saturday night rush, which made the check‑in experience a bit stressful to watch. It might help to give her additional support during peak hours so the front‑of‑house experience matches the excellence of the food and service.

We live in Arizona now, and whenever we are near, we make a point to come back. They open at 6 and close at 9 on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. They have been in business since the 70's. I believe with the original owners. A lot of the foundational materials are the original. Well maintained though. If you plan on coming early, you need to make reservations. You actually need to have a reservation up until about 2000 if you are bothered by waiting. This is a family owned and operated business. Everyone is friendly and works hard to make sure you have a great experience. They have little turnover in the staff too. I've been seeing the same faces for 20 years. The waitresses are hustling and our drinks never came close to empty. Everything runs so smoothly. It's obvious that the back of the restaurant is working as hard as the front. Janelle was our waitress tonight and she's phenomenal. Here's what makes this place irresistible. Their steaks are marinated and cooked to perfection every time on a sizzling hot plate. They cook it a little less than requested because your steak continues to cook while you eat. I like to cut up my steak and roll it around on the steering plate. But that baked potatoes. This is what I dream about when I'm gone. They have a sour cream and butter mixture that is out of this world. It is so good, and they know it, that very few people know the recipe and they bring it in already mixed so that no one can truly figure it out.

I'm even more embarrassed that I never have pictures because I eat everything up so quickly, lol. They have the absolute best steaks in the county. I have never had one that wasn't seasoned perfectly or cooked accurately. The salad bar is very basic, but it's filling. It's definitely a nice start to the meal. The baked potato with sour cream is to die for! Now hear me out. The sour cream is seasoned with an onion & chive mixture that just brings out all kinds of flavors. I used it on top of my steak too! I can only recommend Carolina for dinner service because I hadn't had their lunch, but if its anything like their steaks, I'm certain you won't be disappointed!

We are in Wadesboro for local play at a theater and this is one of the local restaurants in the area. Growing up in Charlotte we always passe by Wadesboro area to go to Myrtle Beach, this area is full of fast food, we never knew that this gem was hiding behind all that. From the way its look outside, it is just a dinner. But once you walked in you are greeted with great hospitality. The area looks clean and comfortable. The staff was above and beyond. The food was amazing. We got some gator tails for starters, it is full of favors. I got the beef tips with rice, I mean this is one of beef tips I had. The salmon that my wife ordered was perfectly cooked. From now on, if I go to Myrtle beach from Charlotte we will stop by this spot. I just really want to said thank you for great food and service from this team.

And to those of you who write reviews, as I do, you owe it to the staff, management and owners to immediately deal with it. I did not want to make a scene as it was a busy weekend, so I was wrong. I later talked with Tony, one of the owners, who was extremely helpful as we went over the issue. Unfortunately, my bad, there was little he could do to rectify the situation and to determine just why the steak was not to my satisfaction. For whatever the reason, I can assure you, as I did with Tony, that when my wife and I return that is there are any issues I will immediately bring it up to the manager. A good reminder lesson for me. Butcher Shop does have excellent, high quality meat. We will be looking at how the cooking part goes. Could have been a bad night. We will see.

The shop also has a small bar and a small dining area. Friendly staff, nice menu, comfortable atmosphere. Menu specials offered, most of us ordered the meatball lunch with red sauce, mozzarella cheese , fried grits with goat cheese, others ordered a crab cake sandwich, Cuban sandwich, side of mushrooms and a side of hot honey brussel sprouts We all liked what we ate. However for me the fried grit squares had no detection of goat cheese in them and seemed to me not the best addition to compliment the meatballs. The mushrooms tasted standard. However we all loved the hot honey roasted brussel sprouts and I enjoyed them more than the meatballs! Food plately nicely, brought out hot, good portions size. We certainly would return and try somet other menu choices.

The burgers tasted great -- juicy and flavorful. What stood out most was how accommodating they were to my 12-year-old son's gluten allergy.

The only thing we wished is that they offered a dedicated fryer for gluten-free cooking, so my son could also enjoy their house chips or fries.

It seems that it has been hit and miss over the past six months or so. We typically stick to the same order for wings, burgers and pork chops.

We were seated by the hostess to a nice booth and our waiter was quick to take our orders. We ordered the Grilled Salmon ($24) with a side of Risotto. Our friend ordered the Grilled salmon with Risotto and also a Edamame/succotash side. The salmon was done perfectly and the risotto also was very good. My wife ordered a side salad and I ordered a side Caesar salad. The salads were cold, crisp and very good, although my wife's balsamic vinegar dressing caught her by surprised by the acidity of the dressing. Excellent meal. Our other friend ordered the Pork Chop, which was huge and quite thick. It had a maple glaze on it. I had a bite of it and it was very good tasting...not quite as tender as I would've liked, but that's sort of typical of most pork chops. We were too full to try any dessert. Great menu, good service. We will go back.

Would be nicer , perhaps, if there were some areas for those who like to dine without the boisterous crowd and the loud music. The stairs leading to the bar area are very steep and slick- be careful- especially if you have imbibed with the available alcohol. The owners are usually around and very friendly. Sanitation grade is "A"! Seating in the middle of the floor can get cold in the winter due to smokers going in and out the back door . The dumb waiter is a necessity to get food from the kitchen but it is VERY LOUD and distracting. All in all, The Bank is a good place to meet friends and enjoy a night out.
