Bossy Beulah's Ballantyne — Restaurant in Charlotte

I've been walking by this place for a couple of months now when going to other restaurants around it. I decided to give it a try, finally. When I walked in, I was greeted professionally by a server known as "Bossy 6 S." He explained everything to me, which helped me select exactly what I wanted. I ordered the wing combo with house fries, Iredell Slaw, and a sweet tea.

You will have to seat yourself, as there are no servers, unlike in other sit-down restaurants. The restaurant was clean and had an open, airy atmosphere. They also offered an outdoor eating space, if that is your preference.

The food didn't take long, as it wasn't busy, which was unusual since it was lunchtime and there were only two other customers eating, and a total of three people ordered and left. I do consider myself a chicken aficionado, so I was ready to see how good their chicken is. I did notice that the wings were enormous, which automatically turned me off. I'm not a fan of enormous chicken wings. They did look like they would be tasty. When I bit into the chicken, I noticed it was flavorless, and all the batter fell off the chicken the moment I bit into it. The house fries were a bit salty, but delicious nonetheless. The slaw was horrible to me. The sweet tea was also tasty and had a balanced sweetness. I was disappointed with my food and threw away all but the fries. I probably should've followed my first mind and ordered the fried chicken breast sandwich. However, I will not be returning to this restaurant and do not...

Do yourself a favor and just go to Chick-fil-A! I wish I would’ve read the reviews before going … Overpriced for no reason… Service is like a McDonald’s, place an order pick it up at the counter, Fill your own drink no reason for a tip! Asking for a tip starting at 18% at this place is actually very offensive… Lady at the counter was very nice. I paid $19.00 for a hot thigh sandwich. If you want cheese you have to pay an extra dollar if you want an extra sauce you have to pay $.49, to make your order a combo you have to pay an additional six dollars. Unfortunately, the price didn’t balance out the flavor and quality.. chicken was undercooked and was not fresh the first time I got it …. I took it back to the lady at the counter, and by all means the gentleman in the kitchen went out of his way to make sure I was satisfied, Five star for him and his customer service. Unfortunately, by the time I was eating my second sandwich I was already grossed out by the first one that was sticky and bloody. The fries are very bland nothing special about them, the fresh pickle tasted really good with the sandwich But overall experience was not a good one and I would not care to go back not for the food… I’m giving two stars because I think the staff was...

Went there on a Saturday evening—place was so empty I thought I missed a health inspection notice. First time trying it, so we went in with open minds and empty stomachs. The staff was friendly, the restaurant was mostly clean, so things were looking promising… until the food showed up.

The sandwiches arrived at a temperature best described as “mildly interested.” Turns out they keep the chicken in a warmer after frying it, which is a bold move for something priced like it was made to order. My wife got the chicken bites—soggy, aggressively salty, and apparently one was enough because she tapped out immediately. My son ordered the chicken thigh sandwich. He’s 14, loves buffalo sauce, and has the metabolism of a hummingbird, yet he barely made it halfway through. That says a lot.

The fries? Decent. Which is unfortunate because they were the best part of the meal. Maybe we caught them on an off night, but we won’t be in a hurry...
