"Not my kind of place. The bar / tavern had screaming, loud customers on a day when there was no one around. Really a tasting menu, teen plate, teen servings, bad value for money. The waitress told me that the green peppers in my clam chowder were mild - they weren't and had to spit out with a burning mouth. Really embarrassing when I was treated. Instead, they gave me asparagus. Your only vegetable. They didn't notice that my water glass was empty and I had to request it. Backless benches to sit in the tavern / bar, but you can request an uncomfortable chair. Not a place where you, like me, eat a lot of healthy protein and vegetables. I don't like leaving a restaurant where I feel bloated with too much food, but I don't want to go hungry either. The coffee was good after the meal."

"What a treat! I asked if the cherry cheesecake or almond joy ice cream would be better for a milkshake and was told the cherry cheesecake is a favorite. I am so glad I made that choice even though I had never thought of combining a cheesecake flavor into a milkshake. Absolutely delicious! My parents ordered hot fudge sundaes with extra caramel and nuts and the few bites I stole were amazing as well. They have so many choices it is hard to decide but the employees are more than willing to answer questions and proud to work there. They kindly shared that you can take home a 1/2 gallon or pint of any of the flavors. I may have to do that next time and I will definitely be back! Just remember that you do not need a lid for the milkshakes and their one size is large enough for up to three people to share. I have lived in the Charlotte area since 1998 yet had never heard of this place until recently. It is a new favorite and one of my top three choices for ice cream within a 20 mile radius. You won't be disappointed! It makes for a great memory and a cool experience of feeling like you have traveled through time.

"Edit: Update for 2022. My experience this time was much better. While the chips and salsa weren't complimentary, they were delicious and worth the price. The guacamole was fantastic, although the bagel chips were a bit too hard for our taste. Be sure to ask for any extra toppings you want on your burrito, or it'll just come with meat, rice, and beans. The mixed drinks and margaritas were quite good. I’m increasing my rating by two stars. The outdoor seating is also a great feature!"

"Best cheese steak in Gastonia! The pizza was amazing too. Oh, and don't sleep on the ranch.... you'll want to dip everything in it, lol! Inside is small, but very clean. You can dine in. The staff was super friendly and our food came out pretty fast all things considered (peak dinner hours). Food was fresh and piping hot. If I have any complaints at all, it's that I wish the cheese steak was bigger!

"after I first feb on the 29th. In 2020, after reginellas pizza and Italian ristorante went, my fiancées and I were eagerly back. After I was raised in an antidote where it seemed that any other local restaurant was an Italian restorer and a grandmother who was the first generation American from palermo, I was delighted to find proud of service, food quality and serving. while the atmosphere did not call the traditional Italian restaurant, they pulled out in any other area, so reginella’s had to be marked that I had the special (something similar to frutti di mare) while my engaged penne alla vodka had with huhn. both mealtimes came with a fresh on the part and warm soft broth. quickly forward to last night, 17th juni 2020. we wanted to confirm that the restaurant served because of Covid-19 Dine-in. they confirmed they were. we had our temperatures at the arrival (smart move) and then were directed to choose from the menu at the wall and order at the theke......okay only a slight change. everything else was a quick slide. my fiancée ordered the penne alla vodka again with huh, added garnel this time, and I ordered the manicotti and asked if a side of the sausage was available. I was told, so I ordered it. I paid the $37 and found a table. when we had forgotten the order of the salat dress, I returned to say only that an salat did not come with the meal. I had accepted from our previous experience in reginella’s, plus the increased cost of meal as dinner on midday, plus my experiences in every other Italian restaurant I had ever eaten that an salat was included. it will be better (or worse) the broth sticks came cold with two cheap paper plates (Key-Augen-Hack.) then our meal times came in foil-to-go containers with the sharp edges that point vertically upwards, and added an element of danger to an already disappointing experience. instead of a piece of chicken had my finacee court tiny little chicken pieces, which were probably easy as pizza topping and looking for the garnels as the proverbiale needle was available in the heuhaufen. my manicotti came to the table with mine. my waitress solved this quickly and brought me a condiment container (2 ounces with cut pizza to load 3.00 o'clock.) I asked what it was because I honestly thought it was a small container of grilled mushrooms first! the owner should be embarrassed! this was my second most disappointing culinary experience in the gastonia and will ensure that I do not return. that is, the sauce is delicious and the pizzas they put out looked really good. I would offer the following: if they told people they were open, they would open. the people generally don't love spending hard earned money to be treated like a dog. I understand that the pandemic has an effect on the companies, but if they cannot treat how they should expect to be treated with traditional Italian hospitality, they tell them. I have to expect portofino's type treatment and get mcdonalds. also it seems that her pizza business is booming. Maybe they should remember, ristorante and their pasta courts fall, and surpass what they want. if you want pizza, I say go for it. if they want to take pasta with a very good sauce, they go for it (not to add chicken, garnel or sausage) if they want pasta from a tin foil container with cold brotsticks and not to eat a natalate, they get a pan of stouffers manicotti and eat home for $30 less."
