Don's Char-Grill — Restaurant in North Wilkesboro

After spending the morning in the hospital and unable to eat for 24+ hours with my wife, we were tired and WE WERE HUNGRY!!! We only stopped here because it was close to the hospital. Talk about a hidden diamond in the rough. We had to be very picky with what we ordered but the young lady at the register was patient and kind. After overhearing us making our long carefully chosen order the cook, a large man, a very large man, came to the front, introduced himself, and assured us that he would make our order to our liking... he certainly did keep his promise. The young man working out front (bussing I assume) even stepped up and got us salad dressing when he found out we needed some. I could go much more into detail about our pleasant experience but it's just a review, not literature. It's a rare occasion these days when you get such service and everyone treats you so well. What a great crew!!! We will certainly be back! Oh, I almost forgot... the food was pretty good and was...

Where’s the beef? As I ate my lunch at Don’s Char-Grill, I found myself quoting that iconic line from the classic 1984 Wendy’s commercial. And it is unfortunate, because this could have been a 4 star review. Let me explain. Before I get to the food, let me say that the price was good. The floor, however, was FILTHY. The staff at the counter was only marginally friendly, which is interesting because the establishment is unabashedly Christian. Now for the food. The food was actually really tasty. The fries were good, the onion rings were excellent—fresh, delicious, and not greasy, the burger toppings were really fresh and crisp, and the burger had a great charred flavor—true to the name of the restaurant. But the patty was Way. Too. Small. The excellent flavor was completely lost in the gigantic sesame seed bun. So I found myself longing for more of that flavor...and saying...

I sometimes stop and get me some lunch after I get off work at 10:30am. Today it was pouring down rain and I decided I wanted a footlong so I went thru the drive thru had to sit with the window down a couple of minutes. I finally gave my order and the lady was rude telling me I was shouting which I wasn't. So she told me to pull up to the window so she could take my order. I got to the window now it's past 10:30am and told her I wanted a footlong combo. She said we don't serve lunch until 11. I drove off very pissed. I know I eat lunch before 11am numerous times. I probably won't be back. On the facebook page it states lunch starts at 10:30am you should probably inform your employees. Use to be a great place to eat but I don't like...
