Either the people recommending these restaurants to you are getting some sick kick from watching you eat mediocre food or those people have geriatric palettes 😂
I'm 74. I'm just watching this getting nauseous. Spent a feww months in a nursing home and this is what their food looked like. And tasted like no doubt. Looks for sure like pre made and packaged frozen, institution food. Takes a lot of doctoring up to make it pass. Better off to go home and cook your own. And that burger looks like tire tread.😅
I mean...if you're running a self proclaimed SOUL FOOD restaurant, you did this shit to yourself. It was only a matter of time before they got noticed with this half ass slop
@@roinnney8171it's kind of ridiculous marketing. your race doesn't affect how well you cook or how good your restaurant is gonna be. When you see something like "black owned business" or "native owned business", you'd expect there to be love put in it, but there is no love in this food IN SIGHT.
@@raspberry896fact is people want to support races that don't get any recognition and help them out.

In North Carolina, if you go to a restaurant that looks fucked up and dirty, it’s not actually a good spot. There’s some spots that look old but are clean and actually try to be nice. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. I’ve lived here my whole life trashy does not mean good here. Old spots can be good but they gotta look like they care about the presentation.
I seriously agree, like you can go to that one family members run down house, step in there thinking, this place looks funky, then as soon as they whip out the food, dishes clean to the brim, food ready to go down that throat smoother than Michael Jackson hitting the moonwalk. Like people be secretly chefs kiss at cooking! Basically the definition of "don't judge a book by its cover."

My husband was stationed in Jacksonville, and I found that applies to pretty much everything in NC. There's old but respectable and there's sloppy and zero effort. This applies to everything from restaurants and diners to hotels.
Been living here in Charlotte for about 18 years now. It's never been a great spot for food, although I'd say in the past 5-6 years with the opening of more food halls and gentrification, it's improving with diversity. But one thing about NC/SC area in general, everything is salty. Excess salt and sugar is everywhere. That's why people are so out of shape here.
That burger patty on plain white rice is something ANYONE can do at home, and badly at that if they cannot cook. Paying money for that would make me angry also. I pay money for things I cannot create / experience at home.
I appreciate honesty...... and I KNOW he didn't do this just for views....... he is positive when warranted, and delivers constructive criticism when needed. Some people just don't care what they serve. Trouble is, people are going to start having to care....... restaurants who don't deliver are going to get shut down, and quickly! Customers deserve what they pay for!
Seen the reviews on the restaurant, most of the top ones seem robotic and refuse to elaborate on what was good. The owner ONLY responded to their positive “reviews” (totally not botted. Bad reviews elaborated on the food and were more human like
As a Jamaican, there is no way in hell that is jerk sauce on it. Jerk is not just the marinade, but it is the way the meat is prepared. I'm tired of people just putting a sprinkle of jerk seasoning and calling it jerk.
North carolina overall sucks at cooking. Down home cooking means bland and overcooked. Period. Most dissapointed ive ever been with food anywhere in my life. Hate I moved here because of the food alone. Not joking. This aint NC from the 70s and 80s that people keep thinking of. Its horrific! Nobody gives af here anymore.
Its not bad that'll make you ill. Its just bad cooking and cheap ingredients. Maybe cooks who can't cook. When you're used to eating good food, this is not going to work.
Youre very right. All the big banks were there (Wachovia, Bank of America, Barnett, Wells Fargo and NCNB to name a few). It’s still a big banking state but the triad area is technology and medicine now. These industries have changed the dynamic from the dying tobacco industry to a more sustainable long term growth focused economy. This in turn has increased a much more high tech, medical, scientific and financial workforce earning higher salaries. This has fuelled the mass migration of new residence from across the country and world. NC have many more international nonstop flights from CLT and RDU. All this has caused a home building boom and property prices to rise. With all this people have choices and serving food like this will not go over well. They will be the cause of their own eventual extinction.
Im from New England and all the food around me (were in Steele Creek near the Riverview target etc). And the food here is unacceptable. The good news is weve saved a ton of money cooking at home 🤡
I'm in charlotte, and I've been here for 5 years and have never heard of this place lol. I do have to agree, the soul food scene here is... something else. Mert's was pretty good when I went, but I haven't been back since before covid lol
Finding more and more it's just better tasting food when you fix it yourself at home. Also usually turns out cheaper. Growing up there was a saying if you want things done right, do it yourself. And as bad as my cooking skills are it still turns out better than most restaurants. Some things though are an art form. I can't fry chicken to save my life. Or make a chicken breast that comes out moist. BBQ chicken thighs on the grill with some baby rays however think I got down to a science. Hope you find places that meet or exceed your expectations.
That was a frozen patty, probably one of the cheapest you can get from a food distributer. My guess is it was deep fried based on the color, and they left it in the fryer for a few minutes too long.
Why is he going to all this ghetto ass spots? If I passed that building and sign here i’d keep driving. Just come to Charlotte and ask any woman to make you a meal lmao. This place looks like it was built with an ebt card.
The reason why slop like this is acceptable is because so many ppl do not know how to cook themselves and come from families where “good” cooks made mediocre hot slop. I had a college girlfriend who was mystified I could make good mashed potatoes. It was like I was a magician in her eyes. I’ve seen ppl sit down to food like we see here and swear they’ve never had better. As long as it’s hot, salty and greasy.
Call the health department on this place for real. Cause if the food is this bad. And there's nothing edible about it. The health department needs to be contacted immediately.
I used to deliver Doordash from there aaaaaaall the time, and I never understood why people paid actual dollars for it. I *LOVE* soul food, but they aren't doing soul food in any manner but name
Whoever recommended that restaurant, needs to held accountable just as much as the owners and cooks...or they just pranked you. Anyway, this is a VIOLATION
My flight was cancelled and had to catch another with a layover in Charlotte. I couldn’t believe almost every restaurant in that airport had 1-2 stars.
The reason the chicken has that after taste is because they don’t change the fry oil. The oil should be filtered daily and minimum it should be changed out twice a week.
Porkchops cup like that when it's hella cold before hitting the heat. They took it from the fridge to the pan directly. Usually means it wasn't seasoned at all and even if they did, it wouldn't have time to work into the meat
They cup like that when they are thin and have a fat ring running around the outside. The fat shrinks and forces the outside to curl in, giving it that cupped appearance. A thicker chop or scoring the fat would prevent this. But they don't seem to be taking a lot of care in the food.
Im at a loss because everyone I have ever met from the South can cook.....even the White ladies I know from the South. For a restaurant to stay in business and the food LOOKS like THAT is just mind boggling.
That hockey Puck that they served you looked disgusting. The fact that they serving food like that let's you know they don't give 2 lovely phucks about their restaurant
Guys chill, I have the answer. Looks like the “chef” “might” have lied on the resume, worry not, the greens will be dipped in fresh soap water next time!
I think Charlotte gave up on life if their food is that shitty. I mean that hamburger meat looked not only inedible, I 100% agree with you it looks like they found it on the floor and cut it up into a patty. That whole experience in that city has traumatized you bro. Just get out of there. You'd find better soul food at a KFC than any where else in that lost city.
I live in Charlotte, and I can promise you, nobody in Charlotte told you to go there 💀 And if they did, they're definitely trolling you. Charlotte has food festivals every year that are BOMB. 😂😂
One thing I see is nobody from Charlotte mad and raging 🤣🤣🤣!! We’re mostly agreeing and trying to tell u our spots. You already had 2 of mine. I got Los Reyes 2- Tacos, Mr. Tokyo (for the all you can eat sushi, would be an interesting video), Catch 21- wings and shrimp, Mezah-Mediterranean. Still building my list 😂. There’s been ALOT of trail and error
Why do people think we have good food in Charlotte lmao everyone says try this I could’ve saved you the trip and told you our food is TRASH. better off cooking that’s what I do lmao.
I don't live in Charlotte, but I live in Fort Mill, which is right on the border, and about 30 minutes from Charlotte. Thank you for this heads up. However, if you want a good breakfast, and have the morning, up until 11am to spare, head on over to Albermarle, NC and go to this restaurant called Breakfast Nook. Really good place for breakfast, I highly recommend it.
My nigga i live in charlotte and i have never in my god damn life seen this place, wtf are people saying in these comments, just go to red eye diner or nefelis bar for fuck sake
Im a Charlotte native, heres my personal recs: Party locos tacos food truck at the circle k off south blvd. THE best taco truck around. Shrimp tacos are gas. Island cuisine jamaican, North Charlotte. Pattys, stew, curry goat, and fried chicken on fri and sat are always on point. Halal cart in uptown. Go to the one in front of gen mill, the other one in center uptown is also good. Daves hot chicken is always 100. Pie.zaa in southend. The best NY style pizza in the city. Open late night. Brooks sandwich house in NoDa. Family owned classic staple. Only open weekdays. Abugida ethiopian on Central Ave. They will make you feel at home and the food is absolutely awesome.
Don't forget about chubz famous chili burgers 200 A W Woodlawn rd. I used to work there ten years ago, French fries cut through actual potatoes, handmade burger patties , and chili cheese fries are great, too
Charlotte as a whole is a walking L so glad i moved back to new york cause it was getting worse and worse by the days. Used to be a place i loved but i cant stand it now from the shitty food spots to the violence its a no from me dawg.
I’m going to assume they aren’t thoroughly cleaning with clean dishwasher and all the dirty soapy water wasn’t washed off before using the pots and pans to cook.
Ok I’m from Charlotte and just looking at the pictures online, I wouldn’t even eat at this place😭there’s a billion better restaurants there that ppl should have recommended
You would think the restaurants that survived the pandemic would have a different attitude when it comes to serving food especially when now when their raising the prices on everything! It's going to sound F#cked up but i didn't feel bad when alot of spots closed down during the pandemic for the simple fact they got comfortable serving trash for year's and taking people's money.
I would say the reason that soul fool is bad in a place like that is because that most people prefer to cook they sold without home if you know they're... Raised on it. As I solved carolina I would never go to a soul food restaurant because I got so food at home
Those vegetables looked horrible, the meat looked hella tough, the rice looked just ok and the pork chops looked a mess. 9 times out of 10 if food doesn't look good it doesn't taste good.
They should be ashamed for putting that hamburger steak on a plate. That is a sign of a restaurant giving up.

Why do people think we have good food in Charlotte lmao everyone says try this I could’ve saved you the trip and told you our food is TRASH. better off cooking that’s what I do lmao.
I don't live in Charlotte, but I live in Fort Mill, which is right on the border, and about 30 minutes from Charlotte. Thank you for this heads up.
However, if you want a good breakfast, and have the morning, up until 11am to spare, head on over to Albermarle, NC and go to this restaurant called Breakfast Nook. Really good place for breakfast, I highly recommend it.
My nigga i live in charlotte and i have never in my god damn life seen this place, wtf are people saying in these comments, just go to red eye diner or nefelis bar for fuck sake
Deadass never even heard of that place either💀
Native here, whoever sent him there didn't know charlotte . I ain't herd of it either
Im a Charlotte native, heres my personal recs:
Party locos tacos food truck at the circle k off south blvd. THE best taco truck around. Shrimp tacos are gas.
Island cuisine jamaican, North Charlotte. Pattys, stew, curry goat, and fried chicken on fri and sat are always on point.
Halal cart in uptown. Go to the one in front of gen mill, the other one in center uptown is also good.
Daves hot chicken is always 100.
Pie.zaa in southend. The best NY style pizza in the city. Open late night.
Brooks sandwich house in NoDa. Family owned classic staple. Only open weekdays.
Abugida ethiopian on Central Ave. They will make you feel at home and the food is absolutely awesome.

Don't forget about chubz famous chili burgers
200 A W Woodlawn rd. I used to work there ten years ago, French fries cut through actual potatoes, handmade burger patties , and chili cheese fries are great, too
Charlotte as a whole is a walking L so glad i moved back to new york cause it was getting worse and worse by the days. Used to be a place i loved but i cant stand it now from the shitty food spots to the violence its a no from me dawg.
I don't have a sophisticated pallet, but that hamburger steak looks so god dang bad. XD
I'm from Maryland, moved to NC 3 yrs ago, NEVERRRRR tastes food so bad on a regular basis, I drive an hr and a half to get good food lol, crazy
He said, “I ain’t never had a pork chop that looks like a hat!” Bruhhh I’m crying! 🤣🤣😭😭😭
I think they see chime coming and give him the worst food on purpose. 😂😂😂
I’m going to assume they aren’t thoroughly cleaning with clean dishwasher and all the dirty soapy water wasn’t washed off before using the pots and pans to cook.
Ok I’m from Charlotte and just looking at the pictures online, I wouldn’t even eat at this place😭there’s a billion better restaurants there that ppl should have recommended
Time to start taking people's "Soul Food" cards.
You would think the restaurants that survived the pandemic would have a different attitude when it comes to serving food especially when now when their raising the prices on everything! It's going to sound F#cked up but i didn't feel bad when alot of spots closed down during the pandemic for the simple fact they got comfortable serving trash for year's and taking people's money.
Went to UNCC for 4 yrs and I can confidently say Charlotte has a lot to offer…FOOD is not one of them
That Hatchop had me rolling 😂😂😂
You could put a person in coma if you threw fhat burger steAk at him head on.
That dry ass frozen burger disk looks like a hockey puck 🏒
😂😂😂😂he said " I'm ready to go home"😂😂😂
LMAO this food review was hilarious 😂😂😂
Yes 😂😂😂
"I ain't never had a porkchop that looked like a hat..." 😂
Now that’s a regurgitated timb and rib patty with belt straps and shaved new balances
I would say the reason that soul fool is bad in a place like that is because that most people prefer to cook they sold without home if you know they're... Raised on it. As I solved carolina I would never go to a soul food restaurant because I got so food at home
not the porkchop lookin like a hat 😂😂😂😂😂😂
They wrong for that 🤦🏾♀️
Watching this man progressively lose his sanity restaurant after restaurant in Charolette is hilarious. 😂
That’s for sure Mystery Meat Monday’s from middle school cafeteria days.
Those vegetables looked horrible, the meat looked hella tough, the rice looked just ok and the pork chops looked a mess. 9 times out of 10 if food doesn't look good it doesn't taste good.
