★★★★★ 5.0 Jeremy Payn · Feb 2026

This place was amazing, as was server Lindsey. The pork ribeye was unlike anything else I've eaten. Salads were baller, side and main. Shrimp tacos were super according to the wife. Wings are jumbo legit. Most importantly, a double pour was a double, not this Applebee's BS. Visit here 110% recommended!!!

I want to like this place so bad and I’m not a picky food eater at all. 6 months ago I got buffalo chicken tacos and they were not good. Chicken was mushy and very under cooked. Tonight we got 2 white fish dinners fried to go. First had what was ordered but upcharged for fries. The second I attached a photo. $15 comes with two sides and upcharged $.75 for tater tots 😂. Look at this for $15.75. Sadly the worst fish I’ve ever tasted.

We were staying at lake Norman State Park and we wanted to try this restaurant for lunch. Great location, good food and excellent service. They even have outside seating with a view of the lake. We highly recommend this place. We will be back.

Hidden gem alert! It looks like a place where they sell bait for local fishing haunts...but go sit out on the dock outside...and then it gets nostalgic, like picnicking by the lake. The view was great, but the food was the STAR..The food came out HOT, you could tell it was homemade, the service was exceptional and attentive... If you are in the area, GO! Do not judge this book by its cover!

Good food, good service, atmosphere is best outside overlooking the docks and lake. Clean bathrooms. Plenty of parking. Decent prices.
