    This was date night with my 14 year old granddaughter. Our second year in a row at The Local Room. It's nice to be able to take her to an "upscale" restaurant in Locust and not have to drive to Charlotte.

    The Local Room continues to be my top restaurant choice for dinner. One of the things that we particularly appreciate is that you can choose from small or large portions. The small size is still enough food and enables us to add on extras like desert, while still keeping the bill very reasonable. Another positive is that every single time we eat there someone in management comes to check to see how everything is going for us. I also like that the tables are spread apart so it feels like you can focus on the person you were dining with instead of feeling crowded by everyone else. The food is excellent as well. I can’t say enough about the local room. Make a reservation and go.

    Fantastic find! My wife and I had a date night, and instead of going to downtown Charlotte, we decide to try this place in rural North Carolina, I'm excited we found The Local Room. The food was amazing, and the service was just as good.

    We made a reservation at 7:30pm, I did not know they closed at 8:00pm or I would have definitely not made it. They sat us down very quickly. The waitress got our drink order and my husband's soda had food on the top of it! Yuck! Then, we placed our order. The salads were AWESOME! The chips and dip were good too. Then, our entree soon right. So, they brought mine out a pasta/chicken (forget the name) and they brought my husband's steak with no ff. They said we will bring them out shortly. I said sure. (didn't understand looking on a ticket in the kitchen seeing the customer is going to get a steak, why not cook the ff at the same time. ALL the food would have been taken out at the same time right) I guess I would have understood the situation if they were busy. But they were less than 10 people there, inside and outside. The big disappointment was a banker, 2 business owner's kind of recommended this restaurant and $74.90. YIKESSS!!!! I'm sure we will not be back.

    Honestly everything was fantastic happy we could try during restaurant week ns get to taste a few things. You must have their fried green tomatoes. That breading is heaven. Like just fantastic. The ceaser salad dressing is on point, my only critique is more croutons cause those are also fantastic. The steak we got came out perfectly cooked which was so comforting. And obviously tried some desserts and yall, get the brownie Ala mode. Even my husband who doesn't like chocolate or gluten free products, almost took the plate away from me. Fantastic place, will be back.

    Reservations were on time; great table; ran out of Halibut so that was unfortunate because our reservation was @ 645, so early; Kansas City steak lacked flavor. Ribs, chicken and salmon was amazing. Waitress was amazing.

    We enjoyed a great dinner with friends; 4 of us in total. We made reservations and arriving a bit early, were still seated upon arrival. Our server was excellent and answered all of our questions. Recommendations made were great and our appetizers and meal all perfectly prepared. We have already decided on another trip to try other offerings. No problem recommending to anyone - I don't think you will be disappointed in any way. Great friends and food made for a great evening - thank you Local Room.
