kiki bistro

good and bad. stopped by for an early dinner. goodserviceand fast. wife got fried pork chops with greens and fruit. i got the lamb burger. both main dishes were good with relatively unimpressive sides. my lamb burger was good. moist and tasty. the pork chops were fine. the wife liked them more than me. but we'll seasoned and nice crunch. i like that it is located right across from legion so we might come back but otherwise it was kind of meh.

great 1st trip!. my wife and i ate here for the first time last week and it was sooo good. we had the gravy fries with pimento cheese, which was cheesy goodness. for dinner i had the beef tips and they were perfect with mash potatoes and hush puppies. great food, goodserviceand we will be back soon to try the banana pudding:)

this is by far my favorite place to eat. the staff is great. alwaysservicewith a smile (and a laugh). i love the small block with homemade chips and you always have to get a order of fried pickles.
it is worth the drive and wait (if there is one). i drive 30 minutes to get here and it is worth every minute. love this place!

horrible service, rude manager, low quality food, and dirty. i've been several times and the food is not impressive. the customerservicewas very poor each time i've gone. if you have a party of 4 be prepared for horribleservicefrom the manager and hostess. we went at 2pm on a sunday with a party of 7 ( 2 kids). we were told we'd have to wait (20 minutes) for the only big booth they had. we told the hostess we were ok with two booths close together if that came available first. after patiently waiting 30 minutes we asked if we could sit outside and pull two patio tables together since they were vacant(we are the only people waiting for a table). the hostess stared blankly and said "no it's not policy". we asked for the manager. the manager (wayne) was also rude and said that tables could not be pushed together. he then said he could do it this one time in a condensing voice. we left and got better food andserviceat bad daddy burgers. the diamond needs to improve their customerserviceskills or they will meet the same fate as the penguin.

this was my first time here. i got it to go. the guy that took my order was super nice and gave greatserviceto those around me while i waited for my order. it was delicious! the sloop joe was massive and yummy. it wasn't as ketchupy as i remember them when i was a kid. the mac and cheese is great! it isn't "southern style" with lots of eggs and i like that. the side of fries was huge! the only downside was the fries weren't as cooked as i would have liked. i will def be back. the price to portion ratio is definitely a value!

worst restaurant experience in life. rude waitress from beginning til end. rude manager i might add. & forced to pay for meal and the food never even got to the table. hands down worst customerservicein charlotte.

good food, good folks, goodserviceand it just feels right !

not so great.... i've only been once, and i'll give it another try, but i was not impressed. i had a winky dinky dog, which was a favorite at the old penguin. the diamond's version isn't nearly as good. fried okra was just ok, hot, but not crisp.servicewas somewhere between indifferent and surly.
