Carolina Steak & Rib

My husband's mom (my MIL) has been wanting to try this restaurant for a while. The night we went it wasn't crowded at all and we were seated right away. Ambiance is nice... lighting and seating was comfortable.The service was great! Our server was friendly and attentive. We had wine and beer... both were good (house wine).Food was very good! Steak was cooked perfectly and the shrimp was delicious. Plenty of food to take home (we had it for dinner the next night).The new manager came over to check on us and chatted for a bit. We appreciate that kind of service and attention.

So excited to have another good restaurant in Lincolnton. We needed a good option for steak. Really love that they are open on Mondays as not much is. The service was very fast we got everything really quick after ordering. The waitress was nice and did a good job making sure we were checked on. The potato skin appetizer was excellent they had crispy edges and had good flavor. The filet was well seasoned and like cutting into butter it was so tender. Chicken Tenders were good and fries were crispy. Only thing I wouldn't recommend is the onion straws they were kind of a pile of mush. Peach Cobbler dessert had good crust. Great family restaurant with reasonable prices for what they are offering. Please be patient as they are new in town and still managing some minor kinks.

Everything about Carolina Steak & Rib is basic. The decor is plain, which means that it isn't the sort of place you would want to go for a special occasion. My filet was cooked appropriately but completely lacked any additional seasoning. The fries and baked potatoes were also plain, while my biggest complaint was that the salads were the pre-packaged type that you could buy from a store. Our service was fine, but the menu is far too expensive for a restaurant that lacks anything special. I would rather drive the twenty extra minutes it takes to eat at a better steakhouse.

My wife and I both are foodies. We have traveled the world and all around the country in search of fantastic foods and service. We happened upon this place after a show and to celebrate my sister in law's birthday. It was our first time there and I don't know, when we first sat down, it was touch and go, as we apparently were seated in an area that did not have wait staff. We actually had to flag down a waitress, and I must say, I am glad we did. Francis was absolutely marvelous. She made us feel like a part of her family and made sure that everything was perfect. She made some fantastic suggestions and was so very warm and friendly. She is a keeper. I had the new york strip done medium, and it was fantastic. My wife had the mahi mahi special and as I am not a fish person I tasted hers and it was absolutely delicious. My sister in law had the rib tips, and she said they were very very good.We came to understand that this is a relatively new place and I hate to give it such high marks because i'm sure it will be busy next time we visit. The atmosphere, the service, the food made for this an absolutely wonderful experience, especially after such a great show that we saw in town. We shall return, thank you again, Francis.For such a great night.

Marlene was our server and did a phenomenal job caring for our needs. She was very attentive. We had salmon and steak. The steak was Pittsburghed and cooked to perfection. Salmon was excellent and juicy. Rolls were delicious and managers were on hand to welcome you. A little pricey but you get what you pay for. We will definitely return. Nice environment. Great steakhouse was needed in L-town!

Celebrating our 32nd wedding anniversary tonight, We were greeted and seated promptly. We ordered the Ribeye (medium) with loaded potatoe & Filet Mignon (med. rare) with Caesar salad and in season vegetables. Steaks were cooked perfectly and were tender & juicy, salad dressing is perfect, veggies, especially squash, would do better grilled instead of steamed since they hold a lot of water and some seasoning needed, Our server, Mrs. Hull was very attentive and a pleasure dealing with, as well as the other attendants that were helping each other to be sure we, as well as other patrons, were satisfied. 4 stars for the atmosphere is only because the acoustics aren't the best, and it's kind of loud in the dining room, making it difficult to have a conversation. But we are very pleased and will return as often as we can.

Food is great. Never had a bad experience. Ribeye steak is the best. The wait staff is always prompt.

Food was tasty, not over seasoned and deliciously hot. I ordered half-caff coffee and was treated to both being freshly brewed. Our waitress, Cheryl B. was friendly and very attentive to our table needs and our takeout order being piping hot when we were ready to leave. The ambiance was family friendly with no loud music in the background. The tone of conversations was calm and not overstimulating, even keeping the little ones happy and cheerful. It was a delight to have friendly, efficient service in a peaceful setting.

My husband and I had dinner there. The steaks were cooked perfect. My fillet was very tender.Nice side salad and the ranch dressing is very good.If you go you MUST get the mozzarella sticks. They are made fresh daily and are amazing!!!!The staff were friendly and attentive.Love the decor. It can be a little loud at times.

My ribs were cold, however, they did offer another rack but I didn't have time to wait. The waitress's didn't seem to know who was supposed to wait on who and left us waiting o good while. Steak prices were high compared to our typical restaurant, Texas Roadhouse in Gastonia.
