    Big comfy booths!!!!!
    Tonya C.

    Frankie was an amazing server! He gave us descriptions and answered all questions. He was prompt with bringing beverages and brought water with him as we were seated. THAT is a great idea!! The place was not busy on a Sunday afternoon around 3:30pm, which was great for us because we were hungry. I love how they have large booths that face the bar where you can see multiple televisions above the bar. The open-air space is wonderful as well. If we hadn't been outside all day, it would have been our choice; but we needed the cooler area. The collards were not as tender as they should be (for someone who cooks them); another 30min in the pot would have done wonders. I don't feel their chicken is 'fried' the ordinary way, but maybe pressure fried (think of the original bucket place). It's flavorful & juicy, but NOT crispy. We did have one issue, but Frankie promptly got it corrected. The hot honey that accompanies the chicken is perfect, if you like that. It gives off the sweetness without too much heat like some others. The spoon bread was outstanding! Needed nothing but the spoon that came with it. The herb dusted skinny fries..YUMMMM! And dipped in either the garlic aioli or the ranch..I couldn't make up my mind which I liked more! We'd return, if we were in the area & in the mood for chicken.

    I went with my sister for some drinks. We were immediately greeted and decided to sit at the bar. The place was casual with lots of lighting and more intimate tables. Fortunately I found some great parking. The staff were knowledgeable and readily available to take our orders.

    I sometimes come to Charlotte to meet with my clients and found the Eagle last spring. The food is very good. -Fried chicken. What they are known for. Really good. -Spoon bread. Amazing. I got an extra order to bring back home to Los Angeles for my kids. -Burnt ends- very good. -Shrimp and grits- very good. -collared greens- very good. One area they could work on is table service. Our table was a booth behind the bar where we were told the bartender would be our server- except the bar tender seemed busy and didnt stop by often. Maybe they had a server out sick that night?

    I love this place !!! It's my little Sunday afternoon lunch spot . There is plenty of outdoor seating and the service is always amazing! They even have $5 shot specials every day of the week . Sundays are teremana . I had the spicy chicken dip which is a their take on a buffalo chicken dip . The blue cheese and Gouda mix are a perfect combo. I also got the cider of the month which was sycamore brewing transfusion cider . It taste like a cranberry berry cider .

    Cornbread. 10/10

    The spot is cute. One of my favorite thing is that it is located in a real big plaza making parking easy. The space is comfy and cozy The staff was very nice and helpful. What did I have: The cornbread was delicious. It was moist and perfect level of sweetness. I would go back for it. 10/10 Chicken wings: wings was good. It was seasoned well. 8/10 My drinks delicious. Overall. I definitely encourage others to visit this spot.

    We had a nice experience at The Eagle in Charlotte. The atmosphere was just okay, but what really stood out was the friendly and attentive service--our server was great, and everything arrived incredibly fast. We started with the spicy chicken dip and chips, which had great flavor but was a little too spicy for my taste. The hush puppies were a solid appetizer as well. For my entrée, I had the quarter white meat chicken, which was decent but nothing extraordinary. However, the sweet potato crock was hands-down the highlight of my meal--absolutely delicious! My only real complaint was the music. While I don't mind rock music, it was overly loud, making it hard to enjoy conversation. If they toned it down a bit, the dining experience would be much more enjoyable. Overall, great service and solid food with a couple of standout dishes. I'd definitely return--hopefully to a slightly quieter playlist!

    Sweet potato casserole

    Fried chicken with hot honey sauce, collard greens with ham hocks, sweet potato casserole and a drinky drink to wash it all down. I have always loved their chicken. Marinated to perfection. Even the breast is as moist as the leg, and coated in a hot honey sauce (optional).....omg. Heavy on the vinegar and onions but it all balances out. Some of the best greens in Charlotte. The sweet potato casserole was okay. It seemed like it was missing a touch of something. The blackberry lemonade was a thirst quencher on a hot day. #GratuityAdded #cltdates #charlottelifestyle #brinedchicken #TheEagleClt #friedchickenday #foodstagram #instafood #southerneats #foodtraveller #drankas #foodtour #drinkydrink #Denzel #foodies #travelfood #LoSo # charlottesgotalot #foodlovers #OfflineCLT #parisolympics #travelblogger #cltBloggers #OfflineCharlotte #foodtrip #lovefood #clttravels #SouthendClt #foodiesofclt #eatdrinkclt

    I'm surprised I haven't reviewed this place yet. The Eagle is a staple in my household. Craving good southern food? The Eagle. Hankering for fried chicken? The Eagle delivers. I've tried a variety of dishes from their menu and have always enjoyed them. There's not much to dislike here. Expect flavorful dishes at reasonable prices. Our go-to order is usually the chicken, paired with an assortment of sides. Recently, I tried their mashed potatoes, and they instantly became my favorite side dish. Give it a try! You won't be disappointed.

    We stopped here for dinner on our way to the Charlotte airport. I'm glad we chose this place. Frankie waited on our table and was very nice. We ordered the hush puppies, pickled green beans, drumsticks, grilled cheese w/fries, grits and mashed potatoes. Yes, we ordered a lot bc everything sounded so good! We also each had one beer. The food arrived quickly and was hot. Everything we had was excellent. It was a nice stop before heading home and we'd definitely go back. The price was right too.

    This was my first time taking my son to visit The Eagle Food & Beer Hall in Charlotte, NC. **Parking:** The parking is located at the back of the establishment. We went in the evening when most of the stores that share the lot were closed, so there was plenty of parking available. **Inside:** If you enter through the back, you and your guest will need to walk through the restaurant to the front for the hostess. The hostess last Saturday was really friendly, making for a great introduction to the restaurant. The staff was excellent at refilling our drinks and explaining the menu to us. Keep in mind that everything is served separately and meant to be shared. The restaurant is large, so the noise level was balanced. However, I can imagine it getting loud. One downside is that if you are seated around the bar area, you cannot see the TV unless you are 5'2" or shorter, which detracts from the experience. This was not well thought out when the area was designed. The food was hot when served. The spoonbread was the highlight of the meal--I could eat it by itself, it was so good. Overall, the experience was pleasant, and I will definitely return on a future visit.

    Buffalo Chicken Dip

    I have been to The Eagle multiple times. This time I was there as part of a party of 14 people for my best friend's birthday. We all came in prepared to order whatever we wanted when someone mentioned the Family Style option where it's $24/person and you get fried chicken and multiple sides served shareable/family style. We all decided that the food sounded good and like an easy painless option, and boy was that the truth! Every dish was so good - I may miss something but we had at minimum fried chicken served with a hot honey (amazing!), Mac and cheese, hush puppies, collards, kale salad, corn bread and buffalo chicken dip. All of our drinks were great too, and service was on point, especially for a large party. Can't wait to go back for this type of meal again!

    Collard Greens
    Kerry C.

    I have been longing to return here after a fab Yelp party last year. (Plenty of my friends have gone, but not us.) I took my husband here for our anniversary lunch and did not regret a thing. The young lady who waited on us was very pleasant and helpful. We skipped the cocktails, but had delicious draft beers instead. For an appetizer, we had the spicy chicken dip. We could not stop eating it. It paired great with the beers. We both had the fried chicken (he had white, I had dark). My husband swears the collard greens here are the best ever. He was a bit disappointed in the horseradish mashed potatoes, but I enjoyed them. The macaroni & cheese is absolutely divine. Literally could eat that every day and not regret a thing. The fried chicken was the star though. Completely cooked through but incredibly juicy. The skin was crisp and flavorful. My husband tried the hot honey (served on the side) but, like me, preferred the chicken without. We will continue to tell our friends about The Eagle and their awesome food. Looking forward to returning!

The first interaction was like we had stepped into someone's home and were told to make ourselves at home. And the rest was the same. The gentleman walked us through the menu. Pretty much the entire line up of options. Not a condescending or impatient tone - warm and welcoming. Same with the next person. Even convinced my friend to get a dessert. Not that I need my arm twisted. The dining area was well kept. Clean. The condiments were well stocked and organized. I saw two different team members taking care of business there even asking if I needed anything. Bathrooms were immaculate. Don't see that very often - at least I don't in public places. The food was what we were looking for. Comfort food. With taste, not muted - just good flavor and consistency. A far cry from the bland, dry foods we had experienced the days prior. It was one of the first meals I really enjoyed on this trip to NC. Not saying that others were bad - they just didn't align with my taste preferences/expectations. Something about how Fried Chicken and Pork Chops are prepared in the South (or NOT California). Tender. Juicy. Mac & Cheese - not watery or overcooked. And I don't think I've ever had bad collared greens in my life. It's one of the handful of green vegetables I love having. Almost forgot parking. It's in kinda a plaza/strip mall setting. Free space and lots when we went (lunch). Not having to look for or pay for parking is always a plus for me. So, it's a chain. But I'd definitely go back. I almost ordered more but was saving the stomach space for dinner.

They were really soft and cake-like and the honey butter topping was awesome. Two of us got side salads for our side and they came out with the meal, which isn't my preference but the food came out quickly any way so it was fine. The side salads were MASSIVE. Lettuce, cheese, tomatoes and onions (removed from mine) in a huge bowl. Probably could have been a meal to itself. The food came out and there was some confusion on sides that were mismatched and all of the salmons were grilled (instead of the one fried). Everyone really enjoyed their meal. I kinda wish I had gotten the salmon because it looked amazing and really well seasoned. The crab cake I had was good too. I think it had their Garlic Parmesan Cream sauce on top. The crab cake was big and had plenty of crab. I think I would have preferred a traditional tartar sauce on the side. I got their mac and cheese for my other side. It was super creamy and cheesy. It was also topped with the garlic parmesan cream sauce. Very tasty. Service was good. Not ton of visits to the table but I don't think we ever wanted for anything. My total with tip was about $40 and I think it was worth it for all the food I got. Would be a fun place to return too! Good job, Sol'Delish!
