    Good beer selection. Had the fig and goat cheese BLT which was to die for. Side salad is really high quality too. They have hummus listed as a side which I would've loved, but it doesn't come with pita or veggies or anything to eat it with, so I'm not sure what the point is. Service was prompt and friendly, and prices are reasonable. The outside patio is great on a nice day. They make a point of NOT providing wifi, so bring a book or a friend.

    Surprisingly awesome little joint in a quiet, Southern, sort of run down area (I don't live 'round these here parts). Very cool ambiance and menu. They've even got a wide selection of great single beers for sale in the cooler. Felt like it should be in Plaza Midwood in Charlotte. The lemon poppyseed cake with fresh strawberries has a light, fluffy frosting that even frosting-haters will enjoy. Seriously good. Only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 was my underwhelming Isle of Greek chicken. I don't get the flatbread thing because you can't wrap up and secure the bottom with flatbread and all the juices and guts fall out. I don't love when tzatziki sauce gets hot like it did with the chicken in this wrap either. However, fresh ingredients and it was definitely REAL chicken which was nice and flavorful. Definitely check it out.

    What's not to like? My fig, goat cheese, BLT sandwich was wonderful. My spaghetti veggie side was great. They stock Zapp's potato chips.....my favorite. Great selection of draft beers, and an even better selection in the chiller. Lagunitas IPA....yum! Prompt, friendly service. Clean. Open. Airy. High ceiling. Restaurant with outdoor seating, and GREAT MUSIC!!! Good desserts, although a little pricey at nearly $6 per slice of cake. They have SEVERAL of my favorite foods on the menu: quiche, muffalettas, pulled pork sandwiches, rib-eye sandwiches, fancy pimento cheese and grilled cheese sandwiches, etc. I'll be back, soon, and often.....

    Awesome food and more kinds of beer than I want to choose from. We had the "Goat Greens" salad, egg salad BLT, black-eyed pea salad, veggie spaghetti, and the quiche of the day. Very nice atmosphere and music.

  • Kristen G.

    I love the atmosphere of this place. I do wish they had a soda fountain because I'm not really into beer, but I'm sure for beer people and the business's revenue stream, it was a good decision. The menu is crazy awesome and I'm dying to try more things! I've only sampled 3 so far. The hero, my bf got which he was impressed with. The shaved prime rib with au jus I got was pretty good but the BEST was the buttermilk chicken sandwich. Zomg. It was sooooo good. I got the low country seafood bisque as my side and wished I had ordered a gallon of it. It was incredible. My friend tried the Isle of Greek chicken sandwich and loved it, and that's my plan for next time!

  • Heather M.

    Thank you Yelp for an excellent recommendation! My BF works in Gastonia and we have lunch on Friday if I can get out that way. We've run the gambit of Gastonia food (sorry G, it's a lot of chains or just Yuck buffets ). This place is fantastic, fresh is the word. I had the tandoori chicken wrap with potato salad. Still full and that was 4 hours ago, no seriously I had to come home and take a nap. They have a nice selection of wine, beer and oddly enough Sake. Only had 2 issues and they were minor. Entrance is confusing, no indication that you go up to the counter and order and salt. Good grief, what is the deal with the fear of salting the food? Other than that, top notch and cheap! Tip: There's a cute little 4 top table in the wine room in back.

    Amazing Fig and Goat cheese BLT. The slow cooked BBQ was good. The zucchini spaghetti looks tempting but its pretty bland, it's missing spice or peppers or something.

  • Heather W.

    Delicious!! Everything was super fresh. Our group had a Goat Lettuce Salad, Roasted Chicken - Chicken Salad Melt and a Jalapeño Egg Salad Bacon Sandwich - all three of us were EXTREMELY happy with our selections. Worth the short drive from the interstate. Will definitely go back. Note: portions are HUGE!!

    (5)
  • Kay L.

    The location is perfect if you want to walk your dog at the park and stop by for a beer and a sandwich. They always have an excellent selection of craft beer, wine, and sake. And the food is cooked to perfection with cast iron skillets; my french dip featured ribeye steak with a horseradish aioli, melted cheese and au jus on a roll from Nova's Bakery. They even have live music on the patio weekly.

  • Fazle H.

    The food was here was very good. Or was a little hipstery but they played Bob Marley so that added to the atmosphere. I ordered the shaved steak sandwich with the potato salad. The potato salad want that great but the sandwich was great. Wife ordered the fried chicken sandwich which I think was the best one they had

  • Mr. And Mrs. H.

    I agree with Candace, that the BLT-Egg Salad sandwich has killer-sized bread. I prefer to eat "bun-less" options, but I really wanted to try this item, just this once, as it was intended. Thanks to other Yelper's photos, I knew what I was in for. The whole sandwich, top-to-bottom, is first-and-foremost, fresh and high quality food!! The egg salad was perfection. It was simply perfectly-cooked eggs and a generous quality and quantity mayonnaise. So it was nice and moist. It was not nastied-up with chopped pickles or other items to try an distract from a lesser quality mayo, or less fresh preparation. Toward the later part of eating the sandwich, I opted to open it up, and just eat the egg salad and bacon, to trim a few calories, and spare my filling stomach. It was at that point that a truly appreciated the jalapeño bacon. Prior to that, I could not get as much flavor, or heat off it, since the egg salad tones it down (actually buries the flavor). The chef-owner is quite impressive, with a full restaurant, he was cranking out the food from his grill, with the help of a sous chef, plating, a cashier, a couple of server/bussers. We had to wait close to 30 minutes for our food, after the order, pay and sit process. No doubt, you will get fresh and hot food. If you are really hungry, as I was, and asked to have my side salad ahead of time... too bad. They serve it all, at once. A final impression... the meal was so substantial that it lasted me from lunchtime, until a later evening dinner. That's hearty! So, long story short (LOL) plan ahead, but it's a quality of food that's worth the wait.

    Believe the hype! I have to agree that this place is somewhat reminiscent of an over the top common market. Although, they have a much stronger focus on food, while still having a pretty solid beer selection. Buttermilk skillet fried chicken sandwich with a free side of veggie pasta and pesto. The veggies weren't all separated perfectly, but that is literally my only complaint. An absolutely great sandwich and side for under $10. I normally don't brag about my service so much, but feel this just needs to be mentioned. The young girl behind the counter was straight up running this place. If she wasn't taking order with a smile she was busing tables. Then she rewrote the specials board, then started sweeping. Just straight up on point the whole time, without anybody telling her what to do. I'd love to say that she had to know I was a yelp elite and was just showing off, but I didn't check in till I was walking out the door.

  • Gary M.

    Definitely top notch, in Gastonia for a funeral and yelp led us to a great spot. I had the cast iron buttermilk chicken, I was a little worried as I don't care for buttermilk. However this was an awesome sandwich. Just great! My wife had the fig and goat cheese blt it was very good but couldn't touch the chicken SW! Glad we stopped, was hot outside so we sat in, being older we like to talk but music was loud enough, but ok. Was a little wait after order but I felt it takes time to put these SW together! Was well worth the wait, will be back!!

  • Andy B.

    Yelp you are always right... Thank you for sending me to another wonderful 5 star food meca! Sure it's out of the way a bit and the stupid one way roads around the place are a pain, but the South Fork is worth the battle. We got three sandwich plates and everyone of them was super amazing. The portions were just right and the flavors were so fresh. I wish I was a local so I could try them all! But since I'm not I will make sure every time I come to the area this place is going to be at the top of my list. See you soon Sough Fork!

  • Shane J.

    Great fresh food. The salads are really good. This food is above average. They are sourcing local fresh ingredients and it shows in the quality and flavor of the dishes. You must try this restaurant if you like really good food. I personally feel like this is the best food in gaston county.

    (4)
  • Cindy G.

    This is one of my favorite restaurants. This is a pleasant addition to the mostly chain restaurants that are in Gaston County. The food is locally sourced and prepared with creativity and attention to detail. Everything is fresh and fabulous. They have a nice beer selection and a wonderful atmosphere. One reviewer called the area "run down" but I would not call it that at all. Cramerton is a quaint little mill town that is currently undergoing a lot of revitalization.

    (5)
  • Candace C.

    I ordered Egg Salad BLT and Vegetable Spaghetti... Food is good, but not great. Because they use a cup to serve the Vegetable Spaghetti....the top of the vegetable spaghetti has almost no flavor. The bottom part tastes good. If the bread on the Egg Salad BLT is a little bit thinner, probably it will be easier for eating it. Otherwise, it is too tall to bite into.

  • Karlye P.

    Such a blessing to see in the improving and quaint town of Cramerton! Everyone was helpful and OH MY GOODNESS, the food. Wowwwww. One of the best meals I've ever had. The white bean burger (begin hallelujah chorus). All fresh and well prepared. The bread wasn't stale like most places. My boyfriend had the jalapeño cheddar bacon quiche. All well portioned too--not too heavy and clean. Pray this place continues to blossom without losing the quality. Highly highly recommend.

  • Michael N.

    The consistent five star reviews do not lie. Throw this one in the pile. Outside: cool retro and modern at the same time - love the logo of the goat eating a sandwich - outdoor patio seating to the right. Inside: to the right = six beers on tap (including one from NODA = Coco Loco Porter and Natty Greene Buckshot Amber). Straight ahead - the counter - order and take a number (just let them know if you want a beer/drink from the cooler). Back and to the left - the wine and beer section - plenty of local favorites, microbrew sodas including Virgil's and Abita root beer and San Pellegrino. Look up and you'll see a four foot wide border made up of six pack holders. Great art work and mix and match tables and chairs. To eat: Goat Greens ($8) - awesome salad with spicy pecans and fresh goat cheese on greens with white balsamic dressing - savory and refreshing at the same time. Spicy Tandoori Chicken sandwich on flatbread ($8.25) - on the sandwich - julienned veggies, fresh basil and cilantro with pickled onions. Really good - the flat bread is a bit on the thin side and the cilantro and basil fight each other a little bit - one or the other might be better. The side of veggie spaghetti grilled with olive oil and herbs is a really clever, delicious and healthy side. My kids had chicken skewers and grilled cheese ($3 each) and a side salad ($2); they cleaned their plates like Hoovers. So, we went on a Saturday when the line was long and steady and only two were visible in the open kitchen. Did I mind waiting 20 minutes for my food? When I have a frosty Natty Greene's in my hand, and the food tastes so good, the answer is NO. Can't wait to go back and try the Shaved Ribeye....

  • Christie N.

    Amazing! If you ever been to Common Market in Charlotte, this is very similar but much more spacious and not so hipster. It's a local business supporting local businesses. They have lots of local brews, juice, sodas, and a good selection of wine in the back of the establishment. Just recently they added beers on tap so I'm a very happy girl. Bread from Noda and local produce. We're halfway through their menu but it's hard to try something new when you have multiple winners. To name some favorites is the salads, seafood bisque, chicken and dumplings, tomato basil soup, slow braised pulled pork sandwich. Their cast iron buttermilk fried chicken sandwich is huge! I love how they prepare squash, carrots and zucchini. Food is made fresh to order so don't rush them, it's worth it. Great place to hang out with friends outside the big city. Thank you South Fork for venturing out here. It's a very welcoming addition to gaston county.

  • Matt M.

    Well - Yelp dod not steer me wrong on this one! We were in the area for 24 hours and we made this our lunch stop. The staff was friendly and the food was great. I had the buttermilk fried chicken sandwich with black eyed peas and Aimee had the egg salad & bacon sandwich with cole slaw. She was still talking about her sandwich on the plane today!

    My wife and I were looking for something new a few months back and stubbled across this place ... Wow !!! What a great find ! The people are awesome the food is amazing and if you like beer like I do ... You need to get in the car(start it) put it in gear and bring your thirsty self to the south fork deli cafe! Don't ask questions just do it ... Seriously it's great !!!

  • David S.

    First visit. My party had a grilled cheeses sandwich and a white bean burger at 4:30 p.m. Portions were large, and they were fresh and delicious! So hot I could hardly eat at first--and I like that. Two meals, two soft drinks, twenty bucks! We'll be back though we live in Lincolnton!

  • Meagan N.

    I had heard only positive things about this place from friends and family before, so I knew I had to check it out. They couldn't have been more right. I LOVED this place! First, the atmosphere is perfect. This is usually a place I would find in Asheville or NoDa, but somehow it's hiding in Cramerton. It feels like a friendly hipster that you would actually want to hang out with. I didn't order any beer, but it seemed like they had a pretty good selection. I got the bacon sandwich even though I was a little hesitant that it had apple butter on it. Somehow it was AMAZING. The apple butter added just the right amount of sweetness to the salty bacon and I couldn't get enough of it. I had the soy sauce kale on the side, and it was really good too, although I'm a kale fan...so if you don't like kale it won't change your mind. My only (small) gripe would be the kids menu. They didn't have any type of fruit or raw veggies to order so if you have picky kids like me, you might be in trouble. Other than that, I really couldn't get enough of this place and can't wait to go back again.

    This place is consistently one of the best casual dining establishments in the Charlotte/Gastonia area. We're lucky to have it here in Gaston County. The whole atmosphere at the restaurant is laid back and inviting and very unique. The beer selection is great. The owners of this restaurant are obviously very experienced. The sandwich selection is simply awesome. I had the Isle of the Greek Chicken with a side of Black Eye Pea Salad. AMAZING! Salads are great too. It's a gem.

    Thank god, a restaurant where a prissy white girl can sit down for lunch with her stuck up mom and organic, vegetarian sister on this side of the Catawba river. I likey the hipster & eclectic atmosphere. In this case, Slow Food = Good Food. I just wished the delicious brownies were hash :P Can't wait to go back :)

  • Michele H.

    We stopped on our motorcycle trip based on the Yelp reviews. Awesome little place with great food and neat atmosphere. They had a good selection of salads and sandwiches. Everyone in my party of 4 had something different and we all loved it! It was very busy but they seemed to keep it moving. The food took a little long but everything seemed to be homemade. They had a great selection of beers. They did not have WIFi. They had a sign that said grab a beer and enjoy your conversation.

    South Fork Deli has, by far, the BEST chicken sandwich I have ever tasted in my life. I label myself as a chicken sandwich connoisseur as I have been eating them since I was a wee little boy, but if you are looking for a delicious meal try out the Buttermilk Chicken Sandwich. The owner clearly takes pride in his food as does the staff.

    Unprofessional work environment. The owner Chris prides the restaurant on being a friendly place but only keeps on employees that give the customer a cold front. The food is great and not too pricey but the only reason that's feasible is his high turnover rate. He hires someone worth hiring and then fires them once he finds someone cheaper.

  • Cassie O.

    I'm thankful for Yelp because I would have never found this place. This has become my new favorite place for lunch and dinner. The chicken sandwich is Hugh. Cut it in half and share hubby. The coconut chocolate is so moist it falls apart before it reaches your mouth. The place reminds me of a Charlotte NODA style restaurant. Good food and surprisedly low prices. The owner is a chef and it taste and looks like a chef prepare your meal. I will continue to drive 25 minutes to come here.

  • Aimee P.

    Wow this place was delicious. We flew into Charlotte to go to the Nascar race in Bristol and my fiancé found this place through Yelp. We were surprised by all the 5 star reviews and wondered if they were actually this good. Well, they are. If I could give them more than 5 stars, I would. I ordered the egg salad with jalapeño bacon sandwich thats served on a grilled focaccia. I could have eaten another whole sandwich while I was sitting there. I couldn't stop thinking about it for the rest of the trip. For my side, I picked the baja coleslaw. It was also tasty and made me want more when it was gone.

  • Jon G.

    Totally worth the drive off the interstate. We had the not so turkey reuben, pimento cheese sandwich, jalapeño bacon grilled cheese and buttermilk chicken sandwich. All were the excellent, and the beer selection was very good as well. Highly recommended!

  • Laura B.

    We went for dinner last night and everyone had a wonderful time with wonderful food. The decor is great and their beer/wine selection cannot be beat. (70+ bottled beers plus drafts). I had the Parmesan crusted grilled cheese with tomato on sourdough with a side of vegetable spaghetti. It was amazing! It was the crispest grilled cheese I have had in my life, and the three cheeses inside were perfectly melted. Our two picky kids loved their meals (one got grilled cheese and one got chicken skewers). There was a guitarist outside and the music was wonderful, and dog friendly (even a large water bowl outside for doggie customers). For 4 adults and 2 kids (one adult beverage per person and pop for the kids), our meal was just over $55- we felt this was definitely reasonable!

    Exceptional food!!! We have eaten here 4x's in the past month and have great quality each time! The chicken sandwich is Da BOMB, as is the french dip! They have a great beer selection, the setting is nice, & the service is pretty good--only because they are ALWAYS busy! If fewer people or more staff & bigger place--but do not be a hater cuz you have to cool your jets--the food is frickin good!!!!

    Over two days we had the white bean burger, iron skillet chicken sandwich, chicken and dumplings, house salad, turkey not so rueben sandwich, a 9.7% imperial stought on tap, and mamas lil yella pilsner. All delicious. I would try everything on their menu having the chance. Dozens of different beers and wine, daily soup specials, and kids eat cheap I noticed. Clean friendly and hip. I wish there was one in Little Rock, they'd do well there... or any other location for that matter.

  • Stephanie H.

    While in town for work, myself and two coworkers had dinner at the South Fork. There were so many yummy looking options on the menu it was a tough decision, but I had the Goat Greens salad with herbed roasted chicken. The salad was huge and very tasty, with a great white balsamic dressing. Also had my favorite local beer, Red Oak, on tap and a large wine selection. Coworkers had a pulled pork sandwich that also looked amazing, and a Tandoori chicken wrap that was reportedly yummy but could have been more substantial. Good place for some healthy but totally satisfying options. Will def be back!

    (5)
  • David S.

    Great food and great beers. Chris does an awesome job on the grill. Has the tandoori chicken and my wife has the cast iron chicken. Both melted in your mouth. Absolutely worth trying to find this hole in the wall.

  • Peter H.

    In an area where it's hard to avoid chains, South Fork Deli tops my list of recommendations when folks ask for a place to eat. The first 5-6 times I came, I got something different, and was never disappointed. Everything is fresh and prepared when you order it; the wait staff is friendly and ready with a suggestion if you're indecisive. While you wait, peruse their great beer and wine selection, and don't forget to save room for dessert.

  • Sheila K.

    Came here for a late day lunch and was again pleased tremendously! I tried their bacon sandwich which was served with peppered bacon, fresh mozzarella, apple butter and lettuce and tomato on toasted sourdough. The difference in the flavors from the peppered bacon to the apple butter to the creamy fresh mozzarella all came together perfectly! My side was the sesame soy kale...a favorite of mine! And today I actually tried there soup of the day. It was a tai soup. Made with a base if coconut milk with tons of veggies (carrots, onions, cilantro, garlic, red peppers and much more) and pulled chicken in it! The flavors were great! I'd try it again and recommend it to anyone. My only issue was that the cashier wasn't very friendly at all. And in this small little town is not usual, might have just been a bad day. Ugh....either way this places food speaks wonders!

    Gaston County is really moving on up in the restaurant department. South Fork is one of the reasons why. We have been a few times at this point and have never been disappointed. Their food is delicious. I really like the Parmesan crusted grilled cheese with the tomato basil soup (the soup of the day on Saturdays). My husband said the steak and cheese is probably the best he's ever had. The buttermilk fried chicken sandwich is delicious. Even the sides are really good - we've had the vegetable spaghetti (I know, it sounds strange, but trust me on this - try it. It's basically long strips of veggies like zucchini squash and carrots cooked like pasta with olive oil, Parmesan and herbs.) And the guy talked us into trying the kale, which normally we wouldn't get, but it was tasty! There's a good beer selection, all of it in the fridge, so you can grab whatever you want to go with your meal or take home. Lots of tables too, good family joint. The food here is made by somebody who cares, and I don't say that a lot. They take pride in what they do and it shows. So glad to have this place in my backyard.

    I've been a few times and have never been disappointed. Gormet grilled cheese, tomato soup roast beef sandwich, chicken salad, spaghetti vegetables....all fantastically yummy.

    My wife and I decided to try something new and found South Fork near our house and gave it a try. What a great find. We have now made it a regular stop. Everything is really great. The soups and the sandwiches are amazing. The staff is friendly and welcoming. It's so good that we have a hard time deciding what to order so we just both buy something different and share. So glad we tried it. You should too.

    Great space right in front of the river. It offers tasty craft beers in bottles, cans, and draft. Tons of local brew. I had the buttermilk fried chicken. Made to order, it was crispy and tasty, with a slightly sweet mayonnaise dressing. The warm crispy fried chicken went really well with cool dressing. To top it off, it had a sweet roll bun. Yum-oh. Nice side options- try out the sesame kale! Great sandwich to have with a cold beer (I had the Mother Earth IPA). They had salad options too, which I will have to try my next time around!

    First time try monday just before closing. Extremely friendly service answering all our questions even volunteering beer specials. Wife and I both had turkey reubens, she had slaw and I had veggie pasta. Everything was just awesome. Most reubens are a bit wet but not these. Great spicyness with a nice mustard. We will be back. Cool place visually as well.

    This place has been open for months, and after going there multiple times per week, there has not been a single miss. I have tried just about everything owner and head chef Chris Boone has offered, and it is a grand slam every time. Staff is friendly, atmosphere is casual and quirky, food is fresh and delicious and beer and wine selection is excellent. Double-check the address listed, though, as South Fork Deli is in Cramerton, not Belmont. Made myself hungry, think I'll head down there for lunch.

    This place has only been open since August 2013. I got the Buttermilk Fried Chicken sandwich and it was AMAZING. They also have a great beer selection. I can't wait to go back.

    We have only been there a couple of times. The atmosphere is a little loud and laid back (very cool). Everything we have ever order there has been great!!!!

    Tonight was our first trip here and we will be back for sure! We had the bacon sandwich and the pulled pork. Both were excellent and so fresh! We both had a beer and enjoyed the selection that they had to offer. Neat little find in Cramerton, seems like it belongs in the South End of Charlotte!

    We've been here probably 5 times. Each time we have tried something different and each time the food has been amazing. Mostly, we've tried the sandwich selections. Think high-end, top quality sandwiches. Writing this review is making me crave one. The misses tried a seafood soup and grilled cheese one night and the soup was better than any she crab soup we ever had in Charleston, SC. For the mister, he really enjoys the muffuletta. We both enjoyed the spicy chicken wrap that has a fancy name and will rival any Thai summer roll for freshness and taste. Prices are typical for a deli sandwich plus side. It's sort of like a fancy Common Market as you can buy beer (local craft beers mostly) and wine by the bottle out of coolers near the back. Very hip. The owner is the chef. He's very energetic and always greets us with a wave. He's a cyclist as well so you know he's a good guy.

    With an excellent selection of soups and sandwiches, not to mention a wide array of beer (great divide yeti!) which would please the snobbish of beer snobs, this place is a must try! I've been here twice now and just love the atmosphere and cuisine. The owner Chris is a cool guy as well! Very passionate about craft food and beer. The receipts really convey this as well so go check it out!

    Great food. Had the hummus sandwich with black eye peas salad. My wife had white bean veggie burger. Enjoyed both. Good portions and food was excellent. Good selection of beers. Had two outdoor tables where we sat with our two dogs. The staff was excellent and very attentive.

    Awesome! The atmosphere and the food make this place really blend together. It is in small town Cramerton which right at this moment it monopolizes the strip with it's amazing food and craft beer selection. The deli (as us locals refer to it) has innovative sandwich and food art involved in every dish. Authentic sides as well as friendly and knowledgeable staff regarding beer selection. My only gripe is fall beer selection is limited. I hope next season it is more plentiful! You cannot get better food, Anywhere! I am a huge fan of the bacon sandwich and the grilled cheese. Yes, the grilled cheese is one of the best menu items. The blend of cheese on sourdough toast with parm crust and tomato bisque is awesome! Salads are great also. Plenty of homemade dressing selections. Dessert is to die for! So if you are looking for a hippy place with great music, great atmosphere, vegan and vegetarian options, gluten free options (even the beer) then this is YOUR place!

    In town on business and was looking for a place to eat close to our hotel. After getting lost due to a closed road, finally had the pleasure to dine here. Meal was excellent! Split a meal with colleague, buttermilk fried chicken sandwich and the pulled pork sandwich. Would have given the 5th star but the buttermilk fried chicken sandwich had a little too much mayo sauce for my preference, next time know to order without or on the side. Pulled pork sandwich was one of the best I've had. Meat was very tender and flavorful. Beer selection was amazing and be sure to save room for dessert! Owner Chris was crazy helpful and so personable. Will definitely go back next time we travel through Charlotte!

    Found this place while looking for Goat Island Disc Golf Course. I got the shaved beef sandwich and it was really good! I love the look and feel of the deli. Reminds me of The Common Market in Charlotte. I was also excited to see that they have quiche and a daily soup. Looking forward to coming back. Can't wait to tell people about this place.

    My husband and I hit this place for a late Saturday lunch; I had spied the patio on a prior visit to a nearby restaurant and wanted to give it a go. We were there well after the lunch rush, close to 2pm and the service was slow. Here you order at the counter and even though there was only one person in line before us to order we waited nearly 10 mins just to place our order. But, this gave us time to choose our craft beers from the very decent selection in the back cooler--which you can drink there or purchase and take with you. I had the grilled cheese/tomato bisque combo and my husband had the shaved ribeye. It took another good 20 mins to get our food which I thought was a lot considering they weren't busy at the time. My husband loved the ribeye; I thought the grilled cheese was little bland but the soup was excellent. So overall the food was really good and worth the wait, and we enjoyed the quiet patio seating. Even though we were a little put off by the wait I feel like it could have just been a fluke, the customer service and friendliness of the staff countered that and we will definitely be back to try it again!

    I've been looking for a deli-style café like this since moving here 6 years ago. My husband and I both loved the sandwiches we ordered--the Spicy Tandoori Chicken and Muffaletta. We can't wait to try their other selections. The side dishes--New Potato Salad and Black Eyed Pea Salad--were surprisingly bland. Luckily, they didn't detract from the overall meal.
