Dad's Place Grill - Charlotte

Price per person: $30–50 Food: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Atmosphere: 5/5 Parking options: Free parking lot

I was very pleased with the food, and the large mushroom and Swiss burger was absolutely fantastic!

It's definitely worth the visit! The burgers are fresh, not frozen, and the prices are fantastic. Overall, I would rate the food a perfect 5, the service a 5, and the atmosphere a 5 as well!

I visited on a Saturday afternoon when the place wasn't very busy, but the food took quite a while to arrive, likely because there were a lot of takeout orders. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger with fries on the side; the burger was $9 and the fries were $4.50. Considering the small portion of fries, I felt that $4.50 was a bit steep. However, the burger itself was quite good. For a better value, I'd recommend Buzzy's Bar and Grill just down the road in Welton, Iowa. They offer excellent burgers and fries at incredibly low prices!

*This is lengthy but worth the read* You've been warned lol!! My husband and I live in Clinton, decided to do the ole Sunday drive. 2 decades ago I damn near spent most of my time tending bar at my boyfriend and daughter's dad's bar Ryno's in Gooselake. Beings his fam farm in Char-Vegas we decided to check out the long lost farm. From there we decide to stop at Dad's Place. WOW! 20 yrs later this bar I'd frequent was NOT Dad's Place as I once knew! So pretty and clean with great curb appeal. Instantly I thought, awkward. It's going to not only look different but we're going to get the look from the local regulars I wasnt wrong. And Thank God for that! 2 guys at the bar and the bartender, James. Eddie, SO GOOD to see you again man! Bartender, EXCELLENT COCKTAIL, made to Order! The price was beyond fair. This guy tending bar was fast, efficient AND put up w my 21 question with genuine conversation and smile! The place was CLEAN, updated and beautiful. Obviously updated and modernized since my last visit. As I looked around I was immediately impressed, the new owners made it a priority to preserve every bit they could, including NOT renaming the bar! The bartender told me the owner's absolutely did not even consider remaining the bar! He himself was a local and frequented that bar since he was a kid. I was so impressed. I extended my arm for a handshake and to introduce myself. He shook my hand and said nice to meet you I'm James! I had a few more cocktails as I reflected on old memories and was able to catch up on 20yr old friends grabbed a homemade pizza to go.(DELICIOUS!!! and hit the road.James and Tonya, y'all NAILED it! Thank you for the great experience, cocktails and food!!! We'll see y'all Wed for our family night. Dont change a thing
