Brightstar Grill - Mount Holly

This place is closed down Food: 1 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 1

Was not impressed with my food. Burgers tasted frozen. Kind of expensive to me $60 for 4 of us. The staff was not friendly at all. The customers must be regulars they all were talking and laughing which gave it a pleasant ambience.

Another nice 70's diner vibe. Food was excellent, the locals love this place, apparently tons of great memories get brought back when you bring up brightstar Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes: Hamburger, Potato Wedges, Fries, Double Bacon Cheeseburger

This place is a hidden gem! Or at least seems to be hidden to those of us new to the area. It's obviously popular with the local crowd that have been around for years and years. It is the kind of place that seems to have regular customers that they likely know by name and order. It reminds me a lot of my hometown so it's the perfect option on days when I need some good, greasy comfort food. I feel like you may only understand that feeling if you grew up with places like this as the staple in the local community. Back then, many gas stations had grills that offered the typical American fare and was always a quick and convenient option for breakfast or lunch. Or even dinner some nights. Those places don't seem to be the norm anymore and you don't realize how much you miss that kind of food or took for granted just how not only convenient it was, but also how good it was too, until it's just no longer around. So this place really hit the spot today and I'm glad to have something like it around for the days when I need that kind of nostalgia in my life. Seems like the whole menu is great but I've only had the cheeseburger so far. It is just like I grew up eating from the flattop grills back home and really hit the spot. It's amazing how hard burgers like this can be to find these days! My husband decided to spring for the ultimate bacon burger (pictured) and it certainly lived up to the name! Like my cheeseburger, it was cooked perfectly with the nice crispy edge and melty cheese and perfect amount of toppings but it also included six slices of crispy bacon and an extra beef patty. Way more than I could ever eat but for those looking for a substantial meal, they've got you covered! We shared an order of spicy cheese curds and a side of fries as well. Way more food than we had room for so we brought most of those home with us. The curds were cooked to perfection and actually had some good spice to them. At first I didn't notice it much but it shows up as you're chewing and after a few, you understand why they're accompanied by a cup of ranch. The fries themselves were underwhelming but kind of typical for places like this in my experience. They could've been fried a touch longer and needed more seasoning but nothing some ketchup and table salt can't remedy. They're just not much to write about and I would probably pick another side next time. But those burgers and spicy curds? I would come back tomorrow for them! Service has been exceptional on the two visits we've had so far. Everyone is friendly and food is prepared quickly, even when there's a crowd. There's plenty of seating so don't stress if the parking lot looks full. This place is cute and seems to be maintaining the same vibe it has probably had for many decades now. I feel like I stepped back in time from the style of decor to the music playing overhead. There's not nearly as many of these places left so I cherish each one I come across. I hope this one will stick around for many many more decades to come.
