I'm a total sucker for hole in the wall family joints and old school diners. When I found myself in the area hungry and with some time to kill, I came across this gem online and new I had to pop in. The joint is small and unassuming from the outside but they have a decent amount of outdoor seating. It was raining that day and it was crowded inside but luckily for me a table opened up right when I walked in. The service is quick and friendly, and you can expect to find all of the staples like hot dogs, burgers, and onion rings, and you can't forget about their breakfast menu! I myself was craving both a chili dog and a burger, so I went with both. It's very reasonably priced! If you are looking for a quick casual meal then keep an eye out for this joint.

Great service , burgers are great. Will be back for sure. Lemonade with unsweetened tea is a good choice.

Wow! Great food and great prices. Food was very filling and can't go wrong. I had the hotdog and curly fries. Wife had the chicken salad. Dessert was funnel cake fries! Too much food and taking it home. Coming back again.

Yummy chili and slaw hotdog

Here's what I can tell you. This little home town restaurant has the best food, customer service and friendly staff ! It's busy and there's usually a line so pack your patience . But like anywhere there's a line - there's a reason- and this is it - the food ! It's good , it's affordable and the great customer service brings us all back again and again! Today's lunch did not disappoint ! As usual for me I got a yummy hotdog with chili & slaw that holds together really well. It Never falls apart in my hand like some places I've been. This place just gets it right. The fries were hot and crispy . It's easy to love this place ! Go check it out for yourself! You'll be glad you did. Two thumbs way up!

I would normally never give an establishment like this more than three stars for excellent service. That said the service was excellent with and food delicious! I was thoroughly impressed by the coleslaw. No mayo or slaw dressing but just a wonderful slightly sweet slaw that was absolutely delicious. My southern style hotdog was a hotdog with slaw, onions and chili! Such a wonderful taste treat! My wife also enjoyed their standard hotdog with onions and mustard. The star of the show was the hot & crispy french fries! Would love to stop there again sometime.

The junkyard plate special! Eggs, sausage, peppers, onions and cheese with a biscuit and gravy.

This is place phenomenal for breakfast!! 5 stars every time. With that said, nothing irritates me more than someone that conducts a business meeting in a restaurant. 6 people talking about a companies business airing their dirty laundry in a restaurant is rude and inconsiderate to the business and fellow customers. Especially when it's clear that they are each trying to talk over one another at a volume that is inappropriate to the extent that the whole restaurant is bothered by their loud griping conversation. I moved tables to get away from it on my own. I suggest this well run establishment, post a sign, to deter business meetings from occurring and if it does to the point it is disturbing other customers, a manager should it address before it becomes a problem (I.e. customers changing tables, etc.) Still 5 stars for breakfast. Definite room for improvement with customer relations. Cheers!

This place shut down during COVID. So happy to see them back in action! I stopped in for lunch on a Thursday and it was very busy. You order at the counter and they bring your food when it's ready. They will go ahead and fix your beverage while you wait. I had the Gyro which was really good. The fries, not so much. clearly frozen and not well cooked. The dining room is small and their are some outside tables under an awning. The service was real good and the staff was very nice and professional. They have free parking in an surface lot but its small.

I would rate the joint at 4 stars if they would consider serving true fresh cut fries vs. what they offer frozen tasteless fries

I had a couple of terrific Carolina style hot dogs for lunch at the Dive N today. Reminded me of Green's.

I've been to this place many times and somehow have missed writing a review…read more I meet up with a group of EAL Retirees on a monthly basis and this is the chosen location as it seems it's a easy access for most and has a menu with good selection and affordable. They reserve a room for us and we have maybe 20 or so who join. We seem to have the same hostess, Kristin, who takes good care of us and always with a smile and kind word. Today, I had the broiled founder with the jumbo shrimp all over a bed of white rice and comes with two sides so I got the lima beans and a side salad. All so fresh and good, there is not a lot of seasoning but it's the healthy choice and it hit the spot for what I was wanting.

So I saw they got a re- inspection from the health department…read more I can only say it's good to see the numbers so quickly fixed. They have good food and great service so I can only attribute this to the owner making the workers serve food with no Air conditioning for several days and then as fate would have it being inspected by the Health Department. We were there one of those hot as hell nights and ate dinner without the A/C working. It was really hot. To their credit they would not open the doors because they did not want to invite flys in . We all suffered through it but clearly the workers really had it tough. Kudos to the workers. They are amazing people. I would have walked out after 2 hours . It was awful . Long story short- Health scores are back to where they should be and AC is working . All good .

Been eating at WH all over this great land since the 60's. This crew has it going on. Saturday…read moremorning packed to the rafters with people waiting. I got to witness a well-oiled machine. My waitress was awesome. Food was fast, many WH can be slow as molasses but not this crew. The amount of takeout they cooked on top of feeding in-house was also impressive. Noisy, fast paced world around you while feeling perfectly content to sit and enjoy that mug of coffee. They won't rush you out, they'll thank you as you leave. Recently moved to this part of town and I've found a very good WH.

Nice Waffle House restaurant out in the Pineville area of Charlotte NC. I'd never been to Waffle…read moreHouse, so this was an adventure for me. It was really more diner than restaurant. Organized around a long counter with a number of stools where one can eat, there were a dozen or more tables ringing the room. They move you in and they move you out ... this diner knows how to turn tables. After we ordered, the waitress pretty much just yelled the order to the cook line fronting the open kitchen. The cook staff was five people strong ... and they could sling the food out ... although it sometimes arrived tepid instead of hot. And other times, a different waitstaff person would grab your grub instead of the correct one so you'd be served way after your dinner mate was. So on balance, pretty good food served, not always at the best temperature, and not always serving the whole table together. The signature Waffle was a bit on the thin side, but our waitress was a peach, and the coffee was excellent.
