The hubby was extremely disappointed with the NC Pulled Pork sandwich. Meat was dry and bun was soggy. We were there at 5pm for dinner, so the place wasn't even starting to fill up.

Parents: They won't let you put a child carseat on a highchair. Ask the owner to purchase carseat slings as a safe option.
