  Absolutely the BEST hamburger AND sweet potato fries I've ever eaten in 51 years! The half pound burger (I don't know how anyone could eat a full pound) was big with a generous helping of grilled onions & mushrooms, topped with melted provolone on a fresh soft bun. Cooked perfectly (medium rare) & seasoned perfectly. My husband & I didn't have them, but saw that they cut their potatoes right before they make their curly fries!

  Locally world famous! Trendy crowd… as far as shelby goes. Pricey… but good food. Order the bear burger at least once.

  Spouse and I went to Upstate for the Oyster Happy Hour last week and I just have to relay my experience. It. Only. Gets. Better. It's fair to say that we were eating sex. Eyes were rolling all over, we were so in it.
  
  Foreplay: The dozen happy hour oysters. Delicious as always. Fresh, light, luscious and just opened our palate for the next round.
  
  Build Up: The calamari and kale salad, which is tried, tested and delicious with that hint of honey and marble slab. But this time, we added a new dish to our repertoire... the crab cakes! OMFG. First, you bite into the lump crab and take a bite of the greens laced with sweet honey and then BAM the heat of the habanero hits you... and then back to that sweet honey.
  
  Climax: Now that you are sufficiently prepped, the fettuccini with clams comes out (Spouse and I like to share it out of the same bowl). Whatever is in there... the shallots, butter, cream, cheese, huge clams, slippery fettucini... it will end you. It's simply over the top decadent and it just takes you there. This is probably why they don't have a dessert menu. They give you complimentary small slivers of pound cake with the check - which I basically ignore because I want the tastes in my mouth to linger.
