THREE VISITS!
Visit 1 = Hangover Burger rocks! Â Visit 2 = Hangover Burger and BBQ Nachos, perfecto......Love it. Â On top of that, visit 2 was free for my wife on mothers day, how cool is that? Â
And now the rest of the story.....
Third visit - 1 Star! Â Yes 1 Star! Â I rated it a 3 overall due to my total depression on the meal I had tonight. Â Total crash and burn. Â Wings, the mainstay of every sports bar / restaurant. Â Right? Â Well at $1 a wing, they better be delish! Â Negatory! Â Over cooked, served cold and the hot sauce was not exactly hot. Â It gets worse, the bleu cheese was like water. Â In fact it was so bad, I sent it back thinking it was ranch. Â The server apologized and said that she gets a lot of complaints, but that is just the way it is. Â
The manager came by and I expressed my distaste. Â I mentioned the local competition, Iron Thunder and Quaker Steak, can you believe he had never been to either? Â He seemed not to concerned with the nasty ass bleu cheese. Â He did say it was made fresh daily. Â It was such a bummer, I did not eat my last four wings......... Bluck!
Well, whatever. Â Win some, lose some. Â On the brighter side, my wife had the fish tacos, in which she thought they were friggin' to die for, her words, I swear.
I am still bumded though, this place is top shelf in my opinion, Â a buck a wing and $3.60 bottles of beer, I expect a little more out of my wings. Â I know now that if I want wings, on bike night I will go to Iron Thunder for 50 cent wings and a buck PBR. Â Â AND when I want a tasty, rockin' Hangover Burg, I will hit this place up.
Fun place for all ages of young and not so young. Very cold beer and good friendly service. The chili is excellent as it is flavorful with plenty of meat and no beans. Wings could use a little help but decent. The red hot flavor was medium in my opinion. Cheerful vibe with good prices. I'll be back next trip through town.
Review Source:Good to see that Ryan's was replaced by a pretty original place. Â Geared more towards the guys, twin peaks has pretty much taken the best of other business models and taken it further with the feel of a Hooters, the novelty of the Tilted Kilt, but with a cozy - lumberjack, cabin in the woods vibe. Â Twin peaks brings the "man cave" to you with a comfortable cabin setting and girls with some very flattering red flannel attire.
Located over by Concord Mills, I've only been for lunch - but it was a pretty solid lunch place. Â Server was super nice and attentive. Â I had a chicken sandwich and fries. Â I was a bit excited to see that they have their own brand of ketchup (most likely Heinz that is relabeled) but fun anyway. Â Had a conversation with our server about it.
TV's are everywhere, so I would imagine this place would get pretty packed for football or other sporting events.
In the beginning, there was Hooters (were Hooters?). Though they were good, it was not, if you get my drift. If you don't, just carry on. Over time, Hooters grew, and this could also be seen as good. And this is going downhill fast. So we will move on.
Over time, others came onto the scene. In Charlotte, it meant Bikinis. Not impressive in their first incarnation, and better in their second. Then Tilted Kilt. Better still. Finally, Twin Peaks. Truly a destination that everyone can enjoy. For the most part.
Sure, this is not for every meal. You have televisions everywhere and they do not interfere with your conversation. There is a massive bar down the middle. It is a lodge atmosphere. There are women sporting cleavage. But their uniforms are mostly tasteful, and perhaps most important - they coordinate, both with each other and the surroundings. In a lodge? You need lumberjacks! Plaid tops and khaki bottoms. They accessorize with belts, boots and colorful socks. But the basic uniforms match, unlike other places (ahem - Bikinis).
Service was excellent all around, which I'm sure will draw comparisons to other not-so-savory locales, but hey, it is what it is. Food quality is good, but some items are better than others. Taco appetizers are not worth it, while the hangover burger is one of the better items I've had around town.
What is this travesty?! There is only one Twin Peeks in Charlotte and it doesn't serve food if ya catch my drift....Well I guess in this context I guess there would be two peaks per girl.....
muahahaha

Same owner? I hope so otherwise there might be some cause for widespread panic and confusion.
The food was good, but the service, while not terrible, wasn't great. I went with 3 stars over 2 because while it didn't blow me away, it doesn't deserve to be slammed or completely written off. We may have just been feeling the impact of a new wait staff or an inexperienced waitress, I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt.
I don't think I would go out of my way to go again but it doesn't make the worst of Charlotte list either.
WOW! the beer really is cold. 29 degrees as advertised. they even have a temperature scoreboard that let's you see what the degrees are! i love me some icy beer! mozza sticks are fabulous and the chicken fried steak is huge...enough for two people. so happy this place opened near my house. i want to try the outdoor seating next to the firepits!
