Finally got around to giving out one of my rare 5-star ratings, as Maxwell's Tavern just does it…read moreright. Sorry that they cannot control the availability of parking, so drop your party off to get in line and then have your own adventure in parking. It's a bar, but a very nice, clean bar, a super menu, daily specials for drinks and food and a nice chummy atmosphere to enjoy. Prices are reasonable and service spot-on. Maryrose took us on for lunch and kept the iced tea flowing. Wife had lunch nachos ($9.95), which were OK, but needed more cheese. We did take some home, but with the sour cream in it did not make it appetizing any more. I had a combination chile and half BLT ($10.25) which was excellent. The BLT was lunch enough for me, so I took the chile home for later. The side o'day was fried okra and we loved it ($4) and paid the extra $.40 for their excellent ranch dressing. Come at other than prime times for lunch and dinner. Benches outside are because it is a very popular place and you will warm those benches if you hit busy times.

We came here with our family for lunch the other day and enjoyed it!…read more We had salads and a club sandwich. My salad was tasty with fried chicken tossed in sweet/spicy sauce and their ranch tasted homemade. The onion rings were very crispy and good but I couldn't figure out how fried onions with no sauce costs $11. The space itself is very small and not stroller friendly at all. We sat out on their small patio and trying to navigate getting a stroller through the restaurant was quite the challenge. I would probably go back if I didn't have my baby with me.

This is hands down my favorite bar, and I recommend it to everyone. The atmosphere is always fun,…read morethe staff is amazing, and the food never disappoints. I honestly won't get pizza anywhere else in Waxhaw because this place has the best pizza around. A special shoutout to Mel. She is the absolute best bartender! She's friendly, remembers people, makes great drinks, and is a big part of why we keep coming back. If you're looking for a place with great food, great drinks, and great people, this is it. I love absolutely every deal they offer. The BOGO burger, the cent wings and the kids eat free brunch. This place is amazing!!

Almost froze to death for lunch. A/C was max and the ceiling fans all going full blast were too…read moremuch! Asked our server Nadya if they could at least turn the fans off and she seems terrified to do so. Apparently the kitchen is hot and they are driving the icy interior temperature and she never did approach the kitchen. Our guess is that the kitchen rules. That said, wife had a Meatball Parm Hero ($13) on a very thick roll/bread. Generous meatball so half of the sandwich came home. I had an enormous Bobb Salad ($17) with ranch dressing. And I ordered grilled shrimp ($12) as a protein. An expensive salad, but it would have fed two or three people. Eating the second of seven shrimp I discovered that the shrimp was raw in the center/under cooked. I mentioned it to Nadya and, again, she did not relay that to the kitchen. I just asked for a box and took the remaining shrimp home to thoroughly cook and eat later. Good restaurant, good menu and service. Bring a jacket or wrap as it can be really cold. Kitchen crew rules.

First time at Emmet's and left disappointed. Arrived and seated promptly so a good start. Our…read moreserver came over and took our drink orders. It took a while to get our drinks and they were not busy. If they were busy I was willing to overlook that but they were not so not sure what happened but we did eventually get our drinks. We started with the Emmet's Trio and the German beef sliders. The trio was just ok. The pickles were the star of that dish. The tomatoes were bland and the eggs were also just ok. Next we had the sliders. The pretzel bun was great, the burger ok but again lacked flavor. I think if there was more of the mustard, it might have helped but disappointed. We tried one more dish, the buffalo chicken dip. It was also not bad just not great and lacked really any heat. It did have a good amount of chicken so there was a positive. The chips were just ok. Throughout the meal we really only saw our server a few times, drinks ran empty so not impressed. Emmet's wasn't awful but they didn't do anything that was great and leave me wanting to come back. It was just ok.

The portions are generous and the fries were hot and crispy. The brat was well cooked and the toppings filled the sandwich.

I'm obsessed with the Reuben egg rolls, and the fish and chips are to die for. They also have Magners, which I love and don't see on many menus, so that's always a major bonus. The dark Irish pub feel is cozy and fun, and the live music makes the experience even better. There's also a huge outdoor patio with great vibes, especially when you want to enjoy your meal and drinks outside. It's not necessarily my favorite place to bring my kids, but it's a fantastic spot for a night out with friends. My only real request is for more vegetarian options. My best friend is vegetarian, and there aren't many choices for her right now. Please add some great vegetarian dishes so I can bring her more often! Overall, Mary O'Neil's has delicious pub favorites, a fun atmosphere, live music, a great patio, and Magners. Add a few more vegetarian options, and it would be even easier to make this one of my regular spots.

Having driven by many times, it caught my attention from a Yelp review. And I am so happy I found it. Order at the counter from a single page menu, take a seat, and watch 'em work the grill and fryers preparing your meal. Easy, peasy. And so good, too. I've been here twice ordering a dog and tater tots on my first visit, and a cheeseburger and potato salad on the second. Both were excellent and I'll be back for another round. Being a tiny, family owned business they rely on frozen items from their vendors for certain items (fries, tots, tenders). Who doesn't really? They're not competing against Bobby Flay or Shake Shack, so I give 'em a pass. In town and need nourishment? Has my "Give 'em a Whirl" meter drolling for another cheeseburger and fries. Go here.

We also tried the Cuban pupusa, which wasn't our favorite dish, needed something, but still good. The mushroom ravioli was rich, flavorful, and something I'd definitely order again.

Our server was delightful. I'd happily return for the mushroom ravioli and birria empanada.

This was my second visit, and once again, I was truly impressed…read more From the customer service to the food, everything was excellent. It can get quite busy and loud, so it's not the best place for an intimate conversation, and reservations can sometimes be difficult to get. That said, it's absolutely worth it. The menu changes regularly, so I try to visit whenever they announce a new one. Yesterday, we shared several small plates. The bacon-wrapped dates were phenomenal. I almost ordered a second serving before realizing we still had four other dishes coming! The chicken and waffles definitely satisfied my craving--crispy, savory, and full of flavor. The mushroom ravioli was also outstanding. We finished with the stuffed calamari, which reminded me of something my mom used to make when I was younger. It wasn't Asian-inspired like hers, but the concept brought back some wonderful memories. To top it all off, I enjoyed a delicious dessert while feeling pleasantly tipsy from the evening. I'd call that a win!
