Last week, I found myself in western North Carolina, just outside of Charlotte, for a running event…read morein Gastonia. That said, my hotel and dining radius leaned more toward Kings Mountain, NC, so that's where this story actually takes place. I arrived a bit early, checked into the hotel, swung by the venue to grab my packet, chatted with a few fellow runners, and then the most important question of the evening came up. Where are we eating? After a little web surfing, I landed on a spot called 238 Cherokee Grill. It was conveniently located near both the venue and the hotel, which immediately put it in the lead. My friend Jeff and I pointed ourselves in that direction. It was a Friday night, and the place was buzzing. We were told there would be about a 10-minute wait for a table. That slowly stretched into more like 15 to 20 minutes, but when two seats opened up at the bar, we made a quick executive decision and grabbed them. The bartender checked in fairly quickly, despite being clearly slammed. Once we had their attention, we ordered right away to keep things moving. I went with the classic burger, upgraded with lettuce, mushrooms, grilled onions, and a side of fries, ordered medium. Jeff went with the Smothered Chicken. The food came out in a reasonable amount of time, and everything hit the bar hot. The burger leaned a little more medium-rare than medium, which honestly worked in my favor. Good flavor, solid burger. The fries were hot and crispy, exactly how I wanted them after a day of travel and packet pickup. No complaints from either of us. Portions were solid, and the prices felt fair for what you get. The only real downside was that initial wait. There isn't much of an entryway to hang out in, and with the cold weather outside, that part wasn't exactly comfortable. That said, the staff was friendly, the service was solid, and the overall experience was a win. Would I go back if I'm in the area again? Yep. The menu had a few other things that caught my eye, and I'd happily give them a shot next time.

As mentioned elsewhere, WCK occupies a restored historic movie house downtown. The incorporation of the structure's history and memorabilia is exceptional. A black and white classic movie play on the screen behind the kitchen; movie soundtrack tunes play in the background. They didn't miss a trick! Well, one or two, perhaps: placing a bowl of popcorn on the table when customers are seated would be clever and on-brand, as would dressing the wait staff in vintage usher uniforms. But I quibble. Our waitress, Kylie, was welcoming and knowledgeable. Her gushing recommendation of the zucchini fries was spot-on. The fried green tomato BLT was both excellent and a subtle nod to a well-known movie. Salads and OBX crabcake sandwich did not disappoint. All in all, two thumbs up!

I asked for a burger with slaw and chili on the side as I didn't want it to get soggy on the 30 minute drive home. Yes you heard that right 30 minute drive home. She informed me that there would be an up charge. Not to mention a VERY small cup of chili is three dollars. I declined as I thought "it's not that big of a deal right". Proceed to open up my burger when I get home and the bun is literally soggy and falling apart. I have been in the Food service business for quite some time and I have never heard of a charge for putting WET condiments on the side. I called and asked about it. The lady was extremely rude and couldn't give me an explanation as to why. As much as we really love this place, after the last couple visits, we will not be returning! I did want to mention, there is a young girl approximately mid to late 20s with Sandy blonde hair who is extremely friendly. She always works during the day and I believe up until around 4 o'clock!
