Going out with the wife and some friends on Saturday night


Jan 17, 2019, 7:36 AM

and I was perusing the Open Table reviews of the restaurant and came across this pic...



WHAT. THE. ACTUAL. F. UCK.

Red Rocks Cafe in South Park if anyone has any experience. It is restaurant week, but I may go off the menu if they don't care.

I'm not sure but that image will certainly

This picture is evil. It looks like satan’s pig arm w a fork.

Also lots of questions about the dish itself.

BOWL OF KALE WITH OVERCOOKED & UNSEASONED SALMON


Jan 17, 2019, 7:58 AM

$17

2024 purple level memberringofhonor-greenr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Why so much kale though? It’s enough to feed a horse.***

Fun Fact: I actually worked a few shifts at this


Jan 17, 2019, 7:59 AM

restaurant back in the early 2000s. Was between contract roles at whatever terrible banks at the time, and one of my frans was working there to supplement his school teacher income, so he got me a job. First time waiting tables in years, but it's like riding a bike. That was also the last time, and I'm roughly 100% certain I don't have the filter required to deal with restaurant shitheads anymore.

I think I worked 2 shifts before a new soul-crushing megacorpbankenterprise contract was in place.

So if I name drop you, will I get a discount?


Jan 17, 2019, 8:10 AM

Yes, please bring the check, and remember, I know @Obed® and @19B®...in the biblical sense.

Of course, Mr. Greenr, your meal is on the house.

Speaking of restaurants...


Jan 17, 2019, 8:57 AM

Rock Hill is getting not one, but TWO new crab joints.

This is going in the newly abandoned White Horse building on Camden Ave.

And this is going in the old Mayflower Seafood location on 161.

I can't shake the feeling that Rock Hill is making a mistake

Please, let us know how the Lake Wylie shrimp and Southpark Mall fountain oysters are. They MIGHT be telling the truth about the crawfish.

I'd bet my little paycheck that she didn't try the kale.

And they stopped by McDonald's afterwards

I believe the majority of this thread is devoted to mocking an individual with a horribly debilitating and crippling genetic disability, thus the wheelchair they're sitting in.

Or in other words, the lunge.

Tell your friends you are going to step across the alley


Jan 17, 2019, 11:32 AM

and go to Aqua e Vino. Legit italian chef that owns the place, makes his own pasta and only like 5 or 6 tables.

Seriously, Red Rocks is a pretty standard fare type place so not anything I think is a must or that'd I'd avoid. It's locally owned and been around since the turn of the century so they are doing something right.

If you want to take the wife out to a nice intimate dinner and have some good food I would really suggest Aqua e Vino though.

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

In the same area, is Barrington's still around?


Jan 17, 2019, 11:35 AM

That was one of my favorite fine dining places in Charlotte. Similar to Aqua, it had 6-7 tables, the menu was created daily, and the Chef was world-class.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-20yr.jpgringofhonor-obed.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


Yup, still kicking. It's a great place.


Jan 17, 2019, 11:50 AM

Owner now has two additional restaurants, Good Food On Montford and Stagioni's, both are pretty good but very different vibes than Barrington's.

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I ate once at Good Food when it first opened.


Jan 17, 2019, 11:55 AM

It was absolutely solid, but I'm still more inclined to saunter down to Moosehead if I'm on Montford Dr.

Never heard of Stagionis.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-20yr.jpgringofhonor-obed.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


This is a good tip and will be used later


Jan 17, 2019, 12:31 PM [ in reply to Tell your friends you are going to step across the alley ]

but this is a night out with friends and drinks and not-so-much a romantic date with the wife.

That being said, Poundtown should still be visited after this evening.
