Wanted a burger, that wasn't from BK or McDonald's. Driving around, we saw this location and…read moredecided to give it a try. I have had it in Raleigh but hadn't noticed there was a location in Wilson. The closed at 9pm and I walked in around 8:30pm. Very well lit location. There was no wait and the staff were completing the closing actions. However, they were still welcoming and did not make it seem like I was a burden coming in this late. They took my order and answered any questions I had about the burgers. As they were cleaning, I decided that I would stay near the door to stay out of the way. When I say they were taking their time to clean - it was refreshing to know they take keeping a clean location for their customers to enjoy their food. It took about 20 mins to get my order complete (noted there was 4 burgers that needed to be prepared - so I wasn't upset at all) - meaning the food would be FRESH! All burgers were fresh with good flavor! It felt like you were eating something made with care. Everyone enjoyed their food and will definitely be back for more.

I wanted, also please keep it away from the grease from the other burgers as I will be in the bathroom all afternoon. Very specific detail in my request for the burger. My order was acknowledged, accepted, and pushed through. There is only me and one other customer in there, and then they were making orders for pick up from whatever food app was in play. I'm having a conversation with a person who was gonna be running the grill and I believe he was the guy in charge and we were talking about burgers and asked you what I ordered, I told him that he went to look at their receipts that were there as he didn't recall seeing anything like that come across. He picked my receipt and came back and told me, I'm glad we talked because that is not at all what's on this order. What's on this order is a regular hamburger with no onions and the other things that I said. So the guy taking my order would it end up getting me a big fatty, which means I would've been redecorating the bathroom for a while. The guy took real good care to cook my burger away from any animal fat and was phenomenal on the way that he recovered that issue. Just a word of caution, they are not likely to cook your impossible burger away from the fat, you have to go in and place your order in person and be very specific with them. If there's a young high school looking guy taking your order, double check with it before he pushed it through because he he may give you a very unpleasant experience.

We love to find these types of places. It is a gas station, convenience store and lunch counter. We…read morewalked in through the convenience store to the lunch counter. We ordered the double cheese burger (comes with meat chili, onions, cheese and mustard) and one double hamburger with lettuce tomato onion. The double burgers were 1/2 pound. We also ordered some house made coleslaw. We sat at the one booth and we served very quickly. Our burgers were really good, the burger itself tasted good. The coleslaw was also a big win. We had 2 double burgers, coleslaws and 2 fountain drinks for 22$, great value and great taste. It is a true locals place run by a family. The family pictures on the wall and everyone coming in seems to know the staff. They have a drive through which also keeps them busy. It is not a fancy place but has a family lunch counter vibe. Well worth our detour off the interstate.

And they even have a drive thru for the restaurant. We walked in and it's a small little spot but the ladies in there are all hustling in the kitchen.

The biscuit had so much flavor and just that classic North Carolina biscuit taste. We also loved the hoop cheese that is from NC. We definitely will be back. It was adorable and delicious. Thanks to the girls for making our breakfast!

But I did not understand the large amount charged for a basic frozen out of the box turkey burger. Very disappointing.

Parking is the biggest challenge and it is very limited. There are only a few spots in front of the diner and because the building is small the lot fills up quickly. I did see people parking near the neighboring convenience store but I was not sure about the rules there so I waited until a spot opened up. You may also need to look for street parking nearby if it is busy. Also do not block the side of the building because there is a drive through window. Once inside the atmosphere is welcoming and clean. There was a cute Christmas tree near the ordering area and the staff were warm friendly and attentive. The tables were very clean with checker style tablecloths. They also had a perfect health inspection score which stood out to me. For food I had the fried trout fried shrimp green beans and fries. Everything was very tasty and well seasoned. The only note is that the trout is not filleted so there were quite a few bones. A piece of white bread on the side would really help with that. My husband had the cheesesteak and fries and it was honestly one of the best cheesesteaks I have ever had. We shared plates and everything we tried was good no complaints. Drinks were also good. The cups are a bit small but refills are free so that balances it out. Since this is a diner and you are dining in they bring your food and beverages to your table. If you need a refill they will take care of it and bring it out to you. I would strongly recommend leaving a tip if you are paying with card or dropping some cash in the tip jar because they are hardworking and kind people. Overall I would give this place a 10 out of 10. It is a small quaint diner with great food great service and good energy. I will definitely be back and plan to try more items on the menu next time.

I had takeout for 3 people and everything was prepared fresh. All orders combined we had shrimp, cheesesteak, wings, fried okra, potato salad and fries. The potato salad was like mama had made it.

I was tempted by the desserts, but I resisted. There was a nice crowd at lunch time on a Tuesday ... I will definitely be back.

The store front was clear of customers and only one other was in front of us in the drive thru line. Being our first time, it was a little hard to read the menu from a car behind, so we needed to wait until we got to the window to see what they had to offer. AND BOY do they have a lot different things to offer. We decided on a double cheeseburger combo with fries and drink - total after tax about $15. Hm...okay no problem. Once you paid, you were instructed to drive around the building to the other side where you would pick-up your food once done. We waiting maybe 10 mins (if even that) and our food was brought out to us. The staff were friendly and it looked like a clean establishment from where we sat waiting. Now...the food. I can't say the price reflected the amount of food you got. The burger was somewhat on the small size, the fries were okay, and the drink was just a drink. Nothing to really write home about. Maybe next time we will try something different to have a full experience (if we are on that side of town).
