The lunch date with my mother is law and daughter. It turned out so great. We loved it so much!!! Can't wait to come back. A good place to come to if you aren't in a rush.

Jake’s Good Eats is the reminder of why we need local owned restaurants. From the appetizers to the desserts, you can taste how fresh and homemade each dish is. As much as I want to let the whole world know of this place I also want to keep this spot for myself and my family. Can’t wait to be back.

Jakes Good Eats was recommended from a client. First time for me. I placed two orders over the phone for take out. Ordered a Po-Boy shrimp hoagie and a BLT with sides of fries and pasta salad. Time was perfect as when I arrived it was just getting bagged up. The host and cashier there were friendly. I actually forgot about taking some pictures of the lunch that we purchased, was really hungry!! Upon opening the containers over filling with food, definitely worth it!! Very generous proportions. Did not expect the amount of food. So fresh and tasty!! I also been told that all the deserts are homemade and are huge portions! I would definitely be returning.

We have been wanting to try this restaurant but decided to relax at home with food delivery from Ubereats. Everything about our experience was awesome. The ordering process, delivery and of course the food was amazing. We got an appetizer of plantains, small salad and shrimp and grits. The portions were more than enough for my husband and I. Loved the uniqueness of the plantains with shrimp and mango. The shrimp and grits were amazing. Also, loved that they didn't give us plastic utensils and the food containers are reusable, not Styrofoam. We would love to come to the cool decorated restaurant soon.

A unique local gem. This former gas station turned restaurant still sports a service station of yesteryear theme, with a surprisingly varied menu. From seared scallops to fried bologna sandwiches, shrimp po’ boy to NY strip steak, this eclectic menu should provide for all tastes.

This was our first time and we will definitely be back! Great service and the food was really good. Cozy inside with vintage and antique decor. Desserts were phenomenal!! Key Lime pie and Beignets in perfect shareable size. You can see in the pictures they were also a hit with my mini-me.

It was my first time ever coming to this place everything was delicious made to order. Love the fried green tomatoes and the firecracker shrimp was the bomb. Jennifer was our waitress she's very knowledgeable about the menu because she said she loves the food there. I wanted to see the chef but he was busy I just wanted to see who puts out such delicious food I wanted to see the face of such a person. I told Jennifer I guess he's like Bigfoot some see him some don't but they exist 🤣

Small but quaint. From the road it just looked like one of those places you have to just try because of the reviews and not the looks. We ordered an appetizer of fried zucchini which was amazing. I had sweet tea which was spot on and very important to me. Then we started seeing the food come out. I was second guessing myself because the prices were high but once we started seeing the dishes I immediately regretted what I had ordered to play it safe, which was the pulled park sandwich(still amazing) but would have absolutely gotten the 27$ steak instead. Portions were almost bigger then the plates. The waitress we had was new but amazing. We are going back to try everything on the menu, no doubts about it.

Deliciously different. They have your typical American sandwiches but they have other choices you won't normally find in this area. One of my favorites for something different is the venison quesadilla with pepper jelly. Staff is friendly, helpful and check on you. It is a small place, usually busy but normally get a table fairly quickly.

While we did a substantial amount of waiting, I believe it was mostly worth it. The food is extremely fresh to the point where the chef slices your ingredients only when it is ordered. The portions are large, which is good because the prices are certainly not inexpensive. Overall the staff were just polite, we waited a bit for things like seating and drink orders, but it was a delicious place to dine for the afternoon.

First time in for dinner and will not be the last. The Chicken salad sandwich was great! The homemade chips were hot and crispy, Veggie platter was Huge (Okra, Zucchini, Mushrooms and Mashed Taters). YUMMMM Everything was scrumptious and plenty of it. Brought home enough for lunch. Be sure and seeing by if you're in the area.

Just left Jake’s Good Eats. That’s the first time I’ve ever been and I will definitely be back. I had the shrimp and grits. It was probably the best I’ve ever had. My husband got the New York strip and he loves his too. The staff was very friendly as well!

Just had lunch there today and was impressed. I love Turkey burgers but have honestly never had one at a restaurant I enjoyed but I must say I LOVED yours! Flavor and texture were great - loved the roasted red pepper mayo. Hushpuppies were delish too. Added beignets to my order as I was checking out and so glad that I did. Super flakey and yummy!

Nice staff, really good food. The Plantains were my favorite thing, very well executed, which is hard to find here. Steak delicious, pork chop amazing highly recommended
Gloria Diamond
Absolutely amazing food. This is probably one of my best spots in Charlotte. And to think that Guy Fury hosted this particular restaurant on his show. Exceptional customer service, and waitresses.

Indoor seating Great Service. (drink never went empty) Professional. Clean inside. Good country music softly playing in the background. Free parking. The Steak, Flounder Sandwich, Chicken Salad Sandwich, Firecracker Shrimp, Stuffed Plantains, Blackened Flounder, Caesar Salad were all good dishes; made to perfection. The water, sweet tea, and lemonade were refreshing. 👌

We happened upon this little place on our way to visit friends in Huntersville. Absolutely the best! From the minute you walk in the door and are greeted by Tabitha, to the sweet wait staff and the delicious food! This place gets 5 stars! Not to mention, Guy Fieri did a segment on it in 2009. Great place! Great food! Great service!
Jennifer Cahill Blalock
My husband and I went here for the first time today and it was amazing. The staff were beyond friendly, the atmosphere was nice, and the food was good. This will more than likely become our go-to local place. Highly recommend. The seafood platter and venison quesadillas were great!
James Retarides
The scallops are the best in the world. I know this because I have had scallops at every restaurant in the world. I have never had a bad meal here and the sweet tea tastes like an angel urinated on your tongue.
Corey Alan Green
Awesome food, cool vibe, and the people were just the best kind. The food was incredible, the girl serving our section was super nice and recommend the pork chops which was a great call. Everyone there seemed upbeat friendly and talkative, the service was excellent, and the food came out timely and delicious. I absolutely recommend this restaurant, do yourself the favor.
Stephen McGuinness
I had, wuite possibly, the best meal ever. The BBQ chicken on the mac and cheese. And the desserts are a must! Kudos to the whole operation!
Jamie Harris
Great place for lunch. A friend recommended this place and his recommendation did not do this place justice. I will definitely be back and bring the family next time.
Kim McBride
I had their prime rib sandwich which was so good really good nice thick chunks of meat that we're so tender they just melted in your mouth. Wait staff was very sweet I really liked her.
Gregory Alan Morgan
I have eaten here multiple times when working in the area and have always had an enjoyable experience. The menu offers a range of options where as I don't feel compelled to eat the same entree every trip.
Janice Cumbie
My husband and I come here regularly. Tabby and the crew are the best and always take care of us. Atmosphere, food, and deserts are amazing.
Matthew Verhey
I thought I was going in for standard Greek/Southern fare. I was pleasantly surprised to find a great menu. I enjoyed the shrimp/fried oyster po boy. It was a great lunch size and the accompanying pasta salad was fantastic. Even the tea was notable. Not the grossly over sweetened stuff you get at 90% of the restaurants you go to. When I'm in the area, I can guarantee I'll be going back.
Paul Fleming
What a great experience at this restaurant! Friendly and attentive wait staff who served up delicious food! Fried oysters, pan seared scallops over spinach and a great little Zin!
Braden Harwood
I was hoping to be able to write a review about the place tonight but I showed up there at 8:35 and as I was walking up to the door, literally 25 minutes before they're supposed to close they cut the open sign and then all of the lights off on me. So I won't be coming back.
Debbie Kirkpatrick Waid
The best food around, every time we go there! We've never had a bad meal and the service is awesome!
Rob Mitchell
Excellent food. Excellent Service. Can’t go wrong here. Samantha was the best!
