Huge No Go! I was so excited to try a stuffed potato and enjoy it. The potato was from last Tuesday I'm sure as you can see in the one photo where I opened it that the potato was old. Horrid then as I kept going there wasn't much potato inside. This one was super bad and shouldn't have made the meal line. The people didn't speak honestly and I was ok it. Every other business had lines but not them and I see why. The atmosphere is get your food and go! Not very inviting but also no worries I won't be returning. SN: I should've just ate my ravioli

I order two items Japanese, and also the South Carolina trip. The steak is not ribeye it's made with some type of beef roast. It definitely taste like something made in my crockpot. The shrimp from "South Carolina used nothing about 's seasoning. They dumped a whole bunch of old bay and didn't even clean or take the tail off the shrimp. 0 out 10 for both

You cannot go wrong with a well dressed potato. I made my way to the Hollins Market for lunch today and tried the Dancing Potato and fell in love. The company isn't new to the Hollins Market but is now back and I am grateful. I tried the New Orleans style and my mouth was very very impressed. The potato was soft and buttery, the shrimp was spiced just right and juicy, most importantly the ratio of protein, toppings and potato is spot on. My only addition would be they should give an extra portion of "special sauce" in a little container. The menu is extensive and there is a potato combo for every flavor profile you can think of. I totally plan to work my way through this menu. The New Orleans already gets a 5/5. While waiting for my order I went through the rest of the menu and TDP as I will now call them offers seafood boil in a bag!!!!! and I am so ready to try it on my next trip because I will definitely be back. Do make a plan to stop by Hollins Market & try these ladies out, so worth the trip.

Dancing Potato chitterlings.

Chitterlings were Shredded into tiny pieces to feed a toddler. No taste. $12 wasted. I see why the cousin was at Angie's getting her chitterlings for $15. I should have stayed my butt at Angie's and ordered. Trying to save and support. Never again. Same thing when I had a baked potato years ago.​

I put it in the air fryer to cook it a little more ! Nothing was wrong it just like it HOT HOT

I will be tasting the Louisiana next .

After an appointment downtown, I took a chance at finding this little spot a fellow coworker frequents. It was located in Lexington Market which was kind of hard to find via my GPS, but I eventually made it there. Parking was next door to market and there was lots of foot traffic outside. This is definitely a mom and pop spot ( a.k.a, hole in the wall). The staff was friendly and the menu is posted on the booth wall. They were only taking cash at the time which wasn't a problem because there was a Wells Fargo ATM located only footsteps away in the market. I ordered a Baltimore, New York, & Georgia potatoes . The potatoes were costly but also really huge!!! I really enjoyed the Baltimore and New York best as the Georgia was a little sweet for my taste. Next time I'll customize my own. Overall a good visit. On the way out, the manager or owner thanked me for my patronage.

Mexican potato - so filling this is how much i have leftover for another day's lunch.

See all

The food here is always good. However it is a pretty small restaraunt and tables for parties over 4…read morepeople are very limited. Best to have a reservation. Our party of 6 did not have a reservation and ended up waiting about 1.5 hours on a Friday. The hosts seemed a bit overwhelmed with the busyness of the evening - not sure if they just needed some extra hands on deck. Outpost has good cocktails and mocktails. The wings are a go-to for us and the burger does not dissapoint at all. However the star of the show at our last visit was the Brussels sprouts!! Sooo flavorful and crisped up. Highly recommend. Definitely stop by here if you have a reservation or a relatively small party and looking for a tasty lunch or dinner!

Vibes were comfy and cozy, with a neighborhood bar feel where if you're a regular they probably know your name and drink order. Parking is very tricky because this restaurant is in a residential area. My bf got the halloumi carbonara but unfortunately it was quite salty. Not just the crispy halloumi bits but the actual noodles and sauce as well. I got the brazillian picanha and though there was a miscommunication about the meat temp, it was promptly handled and I enjoyed the steak itself. The sides of mashed potatoes and asparagus however were a little weak compared to the steak itself. I can't explain it but the seasoning felt a bit off on the horseradish mashed potatoes. Dessert was excellent- we split the chocolate guava tart.

Since it was New Year's eve, there were few patrons or maybe this is the usual scene? Don't know. But there are some comfy couches by the front in which a young couple with a baby was nursing. Another couple was just finishing up dinner and started to head out. We were the only two diners for about 20 minutes before another couple came in for dinner. There were also about two or three people at the bar. So basically a very quiet place. No one at the hostess stand, only a woman at the bar. She eventually sat us and took our order. Things were slow but not so slow that I would complain. I would surmise that most of the staff was off that evening. Food was also slow in coming so there might have been a small crew in the kitchen as well. We ordered the mezze appetizer. Nothing to rave about. It was just a plate with vegetables and hummus. We both got the wagyu burger and fries. The whole meal was quite decent. The meat was cooked to the correct temperature and the fries were crispy. It was quite filling for me. Maybe it was NYE but everything was quiet and nice.

The Chesapeake omelette was phenomenal. One of the best things I've eaten in a while! Our server…read morewas great. Beautiful restaurant. Food was so good I dined there again the next day.
