  My SIL and I recently took my mom to nearby CMC Main for her doctor's appointment. Afterwards we knew we had to have lunch and since we are all 3... read more DDD fans, we knew it had to be a Guy pick. This is on the way home so we knew this would be our lunch stop.

We arrived for late lunch. While not crowded, there were still doing brisk business at this time of day. Since the day had turned quite comfortable, temperature wise, we decided on outdoor dining. My mom is recovering from knee surgery so she has to take her time. The employees were very kind to her and went ahead and made sure all the chairs in her path were cleared and had her chair pulled out for her.

Our server met us with drinks since they had asked us as we came in if we knew what we wanted. We gave the menu a look over and I went with the Southern 500 dog and waffle fries, mom got the Ruben dog and onion rings, and my SIL went with the corn dog shrimp and waffle fries.

My dog comes with mustard, chili, onions, and slaw. The chili is definitely home made and not out of a can. We were all quite happy with our meals. The onion rings are more like Frenchs fried onions and oh my lord are so good. Thank goodness mom shared.

The have that funky video going from the decor to servers. The service was good but not great. Im a former server and trainer. And while I don't expect or want servers by every 5 minutes. You should at least stop by within a few minutes of food being delivered. We didn't see our server again until the check was ready. And while the food was great, it isn't cheap. Our meal was over $30 and my mom and I each just had one hot dog.

Overall the meal was great. They do have vegan and vegetarian offerings. They do have a full service bar. Plenty of free parking outdoors. They have outdoor dining. They are located only a few minutes from downtown.

So next time you find yourself in Charlotte, do like we did and Guy did..and make your way to Pinky's.

  We enjoyed the fried pickles appetizer, pterodactyl burger & white trash burger. Service was fast & friendly.

  Eaten there several times. This time take out for 4 people.
Salad was filling, disappointed in the ranch dressing. Very thin and watery. Wings were good, celery seemed old, or... read more maybe it was the heat driving home that made it soft and rubbery. Ordered chips with one meal and got fries. Fries were tasty.
We will be back. Their food is usually better then this time

Service was tops and we never had to wait for anyone to take care of us. Had 3 different staff checking on us regularly. Definitely a spot we’ll be visiting again.

  Always a good time! Fun, funky and yummy food. Not a big crab eater but those crab puppies are the bomb!
