I really really wanted this to be great. It was not. \n\nThe good: \n- Cool place, great look, wonderful authentic feel \n- The story of the diner presented in the vestibule, very cool \n- The location is awesome, and it has parking \n- French fries are thick steak fries and tasted great \n\nThe Bad: Everything else. \n- Service started with \"I just got triple sat so I'll do what I can\" and went down hill from there to \"this is why I hate when they run my food for me\". \n- mac and cheese is baked style with congealed cheese. Probably good when first made but not when served. Ate like leftovers from church picnic \n- Philly Cheese steak had hard bread, very greasy, wrapped in paper then cut and served. You are forced to remove this very sloppy paper in order to eat \n- \"Smothered\" hash browns are hash browns with 2 slices of American Cheese put on plate and stuck in melter, the meal served on same blazing hot plate. The worst hash brown I have ever experienced \n- Chili on Chili Dog very chili powder tasting with no other balancing flavors \n- Burger comes in same wrapped paper. Not as sloppy as cheese steak, but still not a fun way to eat a burger \n\nI will try this again only because I love diners and really want this place to be what it can be. We need a good diner in Charlotte. As of right now, we still don't have one. Maybe tomorrow.
