We watched as Walter helped a very elderly man who was looking for a conference and was misguided in his pursuit . Walter called the conference center where he thought the man should be and then, led the man, step by step in the proper direction. True, it was not the height of the dinner trade, but the gesture will remain with us. Walter also visited each table to make sure we were happy with our meals. Nice touch.

The Open Kitchen in Charlotte has a pizza called 'Mamma K Supreme' - it's not what it once was...this pizza is the closest to their original which I experienced in the '60's and 70's. Flyin' Buffalo pizza is 'THE BEST' period!!! We'll return many times in the future...lots of toppings and cooked perfectly!!!

I felt like the wings and wing sauce were fine. The side salad was about what you expect for this area. The atmosphere is a tiny "cafe" style restaurant with nice decor... for this area. The sandwich was solid but definitely not worth the $8 price tag. I could have gotten as good a sub at subway with the same quality ingredients at $2-$3 less... which is a %25 discount... I don't mind paying more for local food, but it needs to be significantly better than a chain. Price is only an indicator of that quality.

restaurant was not very clean. Floors and tables were dirty. Area around fountain drinks had a bottle of cleaner and dustcloth on counter. Pizza was undercooked. On a positive note: they used excellent sauce and cheese and their homemade potatoe chips were excellent. People were friendly, but it seemed like family and friends could just walk back into the kitchen at any time. One woman had her baby back there. Another woman was on the phone behind the counter talking on the phone loudly to her husband and child. I hope you will share this with the owner. It's a very friendly place, but they should focus a bit more on better pizza and limit the amount of people coming and going into the kitchen if they are not working.
