user: Q: I'm reviewing the white water adventure rafting and Rodeo rafting here and can't speak to the other activities (even though everyone looks like they're having fun!)  My family and I went early on a Saturday morning. We made reservations early in the week for adventure rafting. It is an extra 10 dollars online to make reservations, but it was worth it. Getting in was easy at 9 in the morning. There wasn't much of a line and the parking lot wasn't crazy (yet).   The rafting is around a 90 minute activity. You sit through about a 15-20 minute lecture on rafting safety and then you gear up. They call your party's name and then you meet your raft guide. Our guide was Cory the first go round. REQUEST him!! He was GREAT! Super friendly and funny. The adventure rafting is fun and you DO GET WET. I even fell out of the raft and had to be "rescued" by one of the guides on the side. It was a BLAST.   The four of us decided to do Rodeo rafting after our adventure rafting. It is an extra 15 dollars per person for this CRAZY activity. Our guide this time was Carter, and he was GREAT, too! The boat you use during this activity is TINY and they spend about 15 minutes giving you safety swimming lessons as you spend more time OUT of your raft than IN it. I would not recommend this for people who are afraid to get thrown under rafts and smashed into rocks. This is EXTREME. I would also not recommend doing this activity on a busy Saturday. There are too many other rafts that get in the way of the Rodeo experience. I was run over twice by other rafts and at one point got smashed between two rafts on the big drop. It was INTENSE! My father and sister left with bloody legs and arms.  That being said, I would highly recommend you try both the adventure and Rodeo rafting on a week day, not on a busy Saturday!   We will be back!!

Q: Found this place on Yelp and yes, it lives up to the hype. It looks like an old industrial building turned into a restaurant. However, that is by design. I must disagree with one previous post about not having 'healthy' options. Egg substitute, Canadian bacon, wheat or dry toast, grits without butter, etc are all options on the menu. Of course I got the Western omelet & a side of corned beef hash! Off tha hook. Nice view of uptown Charlotte and an outdoor seating area plus excellent service (thanks, Amy G.) make this an awesome breakfast or lunch place to visit.

Q: Food is pretty generic. I've gone a few times just because it's close to work but each thing I got had no flavor or anything special. Jr club sandwich, Cesar salad and this last time the blackened chicken. With the blackened chicken all I could taste was cumin and tomato ( the menu doesn't even say it comes with a tomato and I didn't ask for any) and the prices are pretty high for what the food is. I doubt I'll be back.

Q: The service was great & my husband definitely enjoyed the hostess cute outfits. I loved the cool atmosphere & the comfortable seats. I had a beer that cost $9.00 which was a bit much, but the food prices are what you should expect from a Gordon Ramsey restaurant.  Tip: make sure to make reservations & if you have a rewards card you can get a discount.  Menu tip: they have a bar menu & a dinner menu. So make sure to ask for both. If you sit at the bar you can only order from the bar menu.  Food recommendation: I highly recommend the Mac & cheese. It's like no other you have ever had. It is topped with truffles. It is a good portion so you can share with another person or take the other half home.  If your not a fan of steak fries then I don't recommend the pub chips since they are twice the thickness of steak fries, my husband is very picky and did not like them, but I thought they were yummy.
