    Vera's Kitchen is one of our absolute favorite places to eat. My partner and I come here often, and every visit reminds us why we love it so much. The food is always delicious, the portions are generous, and the prices are very reasonable. You definitely get great value for your money. What really makes Vera's Kitchen special, though, is the people. It's a family-run restaurant, and you can feel the warmth and care in both the food and the service. The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, and they make you feel right at home every time you walk in. If you're looking for a place with amazing food, big portions, fair prices, and genuinely kind people, Vera's Kitchen is a must-visit. We'll definitely keep coming back!"

    Club sandwich with French fries

    Went to era's for lunch today. We decided to share the club sandwich and fries. It was plenty for 2 people and reasonably priced for the amount of food we got.most people inside were eating breakfast food so next time I will order breakfast and see how it is. Definitely a nice clean establishment.

    Huevos rancheros with spicy sauce, frijoles, and a cup of joe.

    Vera's kitchen is a quaint little brunch place in charming Waxhaw. We were visiting the area and I looked for a good breakfast place on Yelp. We like Mexican food, so this place caught my eye. I like that they serve both Mexican dishes alongside American, which accommodates more tastes. We had barely entered and were sitting down when Vera herself cheerfully greeted us. As we looked over the menu, she came over to say hello and welcome us to her restaurant. Her personal touch matches the small-town charm. My wife loves chilaquiles which didn't appear on the menu, but Vera said no problem. I ordered the huevos rancheros and my son ordered tacos. We also had coffees, which were excellent - I know because it tasted great and didn't require cream or sugar. The food was great, and we made a point to visit once more over our 6-day trip. Vera is sweet and her crew obviously take pride in serving delicious food with authenticity and heart. Waxhaw is lucky to have Vera's Kitchen.

    A nice little spot with a great atmosphere, service and breakfast. Had 2 eggs, bacon and a biscuit. The bacon was crispy, the eggs cooked correctly and the biscuit was on point. The service was fantastic. We will be back.

    A bright and cheerful restaurant. We were greeted by Mrs. Vera as we sat down for breakfast. Breakfast is now served all day besides lunch. I ordered the turkey sausage with 2 eggs but I was never asked how I wanted my eggs plus I forgot to tell them. I got scrambled eggs unexpectedly . Also I thought my turkey sausage was over cooked and a bit chewy. My dining mates veggie omelet and hash browns looked great and he enjoyed his meal. The coffee was fresh and good. Food was hot and plated okay. The menu features an assortment of typical breakfast choices ( eggs, omelets, pancakes, French toast etc) and lunch ( burgers, sandwiches, lunch plates , salads,fries) and Friday and Saturday dinners featuring Mexican specialties plus the lunch menu. Prices mostly reasonable, plus a kids menu. I would certainly return and try something from the lunch menu.

    My husband and I first visited Easy Like Sunday about two years ago and immediately fell in love…read morewith this little restaurant. It's small, intimate, stylish and inviting. It's the kind of place that feels notably special, distinguished and high end without ever feeling stuffy. Everyone is warm and professional, and the food is absolutely worth every penny. During our first visit, I took a chance and ordered the grits. I normally avoid restaurant grits because they're almost always bland, flavorless and gelatinous. But the grits at Easy Like Sunday were completely different in the best way. Creamy with the slightest grainy texture and so perfectly seasoned that you don't need to add butter, salt, pepper or anything else. I had been daydreaming about those grits for two years. We finally made it back this past Friday and arrived when the doors opened at 9:00am. We were seated immediately. I ordered the Little Bit of Everything with eggs, bacon, those unforgettable grits and a thick, fluffy, delicious buttermilk pancake. That first spoonful of grits tasted exactly the way I remembered, maybe even better. My eyes actually welled up with tears. I know that sounds extreme but I'm not exaggerating. After waiting two years to taste them again, they felt familiar and comforting, like coming home. Our waitress, Diana, made the morning even more special. She was warm, welcoming and accommodating. When I told her I could nearly cry over those grits, she didn't make me feel silly or dramatic. She agreed saying,"Oh, I know! We have the best grits!" She said she completely understood why that first bite made me feel emotional. Being served by Diana felt like being taken care of by an old friend. We had never met her before, yet she treated us as though she had known us for years. Easy Like Sunday is a hidden little treasure tucked away across the street from Park Road Shopping Center. It's the kind of place you take someone special for a first date, an anniversary, a milestone, a birthday or simply a morning you want to remember. The atmosphere is cozy and polished, the food is wonderful, and Diana is an absolute gem. We cannot wait to return!

    Our server was great, but unfortunately, the food was below average and didn't quite live up to the…read moreexpectations. Ube has such a naturally rich, nutty, and creamy flavor that I expected the pancake to have plenty of that character. Instead, it was dry, lacked moisture and flavor, and honestly tasted more like a regular pancake with ube coloring than an actual ube pancake. We also ordered the French toast and a cup of coffee, and the total came out to around $47. I'm glad we gave it a try, but overall, the meal was pretty underwhelming. The service was the highlight, but the food was just so-so.

This is the cutest little gem tucked away at the end of a strip mall. The second you walk in, you're greeted by a fun poppy mural and a display of all the delicious pastries of the day. Immediately I'm like, okay, I'm going to like it here! We had about a 20-minute wait, but thankfully there was plenty of time for mimosas and catch up chitchat! And honestly, the time flew by... we weren't even finished with them before we were seated. The staff was incredibly friendly, and the service was on point from there. Someone filled our water glasses almost immediately after we sat down, and we never had a dry cup. Mimosa refills were quick, too! I also grabbed a chai latte that came in the cutest old-school homemade-looking cup and was perfectly warm and spiced. Soooo good! For food, two of us ordered the Fresh Pick Sandwich with fresh tomatoes, stracciatella, kale pesto aioli, arugula, fresh basil and balsamic glaze on perfectly toasted sourdough. I added avocado and bacon and basically turned it into the most deliciously elevated BLT of my life. I also made a pro side swap for my side and went with the cheesy grits. They were delicious. No notes! My friend got the Fresh Pick without tomatoes and added prosciutto, and another friend ordered The Grit with shrimp, and that plate was BEAUTIFUL. Sweet pepper and tomato sauce, mushrooms, crispy onions, arugula and an egg over a plate of grits. Between us, there were clean plates, full bellies and a whole lot of "what are we trying next time?" conversations happening. The food came out quickly, the service was great, the atmosphere was adorable, and it was just an all-around excellent brunch. My only complaints? 1-Why do they have the cutest pastry merch for kids but not adults... I need that "I'm flaky" croissant shirt lol! And 2-Why is this little gem not closer to me?! But clearly that just means I need to make the drive again. Poppyseed Kitchen has officially been added to the "worth the trip" list!

    Wife and I went for lunch. Excellent menu, good service, clean tables and floors and the dishes we…read moreordered were excellent. A rather stark, high-ceiling open floor plan with superb air conditioning. Bring a wrap as it does get chilly. Plates, bowls, sandwiches and salads, along with a kid's menu and miscellaneous snacky items. Prices range from $13 to $18. Decent portions. I had the The Bisquit and Gravy ($12) after asking for a sample taste of their gravy. I have had horrible biscuit and gravy dishes in many places where the gravy was just cooked flowered grease. Not at Poppyseed! It was excellent, flavorful and if you ask for more, you will get it. I did. Wife agreed on the gravy. Wife had the Poppyseed Salad ($12) which was so loaded with cucumbers that annoyed her. Very little lettuce, but lots of other hard veggies. She was not happy. My second choice that lunch day was listed as The Ranch Hash ($18). A fellow diner across from us ordered this hash and said he loved it. It did look good with braised brisket, potato hash and two eggs to order. A very fine portion and will be my order when we return. Parking galore. You will need to turn right when you exit on to Tom Hall Street, unless you get a lucky traffic gap. We will be back, for sure.

Biscuits and gravy are a southern staple and rarely have I had any that were really good, except here at Vicious Biscuit. Biscuits are their business. The most important elements are the biscuits and the gravy. Additions are many and varied, but if the basic two items are not both excellent, you will have a disappointing experience. The Vicious biscuit is the size of a hamburger bun. It is soft and there are bits of spice in the dough. These biscuits do not fall apart, but stay together and serve to soak up the wonderful sausage gravy that is poured on top of it. You can order just a biscuit with gravy for $8. And if you are timid, start here. Otherwise, there are add-ons like very good fried chicken, shrimp and grits, ham, pulled smoked pork, crab, bacon, fried shrimp. fried eggs and other combos. Super choices, so take time to study the menu which is extensive. Portions are great, very generous. I had their Vicious ($12). It was their Cheddar jalapeño biscuit, crispy fried chicken, maple sausage gravy, cowboy candy, with maple syrup drizzle. I was hesitant as to the maple syrup, but it is just enough to give accent to the gravy, but not super sweet. Wife had Fried Green 'Maters ($9.50) which were four fried green tomatoes, their signature pimento cheese with a pickled okra garnish. She could not eat it all, so I helped finish off the lone tomato and a bit of the cheese. Very good. Vicious Biscuit is more that a meal, it is an experience, even a journey, through this traditional southern staple, biscuits and gravy. Enjoy the trip. We might see you there.

The fried pickles are a must, and the mushroom flatbread is one of my favorites. The dinner menu doesn't always excite me, though, and I sometimes find myself wishing there were more things I was really excited to order. I'm also not a huge fan of having to use a QR code for cocktails. That said, if I order something off-menu, they're usually willing to make it, and they make a banging cocktail. So there's clearly talent behind the bar. The service is always great, which definitely adds to the experience. The restaurant itself is huge, and I personally prefer the area by the bar over the main dining area. It has a livelier atmosphere and feels a little more comfortable to me. But honestly, the real reason I keep coming back is the chocolate cake. It is LIFE CHANGING. I'm not exaggerating. If you haven't had it, get it. And finally, I am once again begging Jekyll & Hyde to bring back the shishito peppers. PLEASE. Some of us are still mourning.
