Biscuits and Gravy
AMAZING!! I grew up on Old Gap Creek Rd Fairview, North Carolina. My whole family lived in this holler. One of the most rememerable times was when my mamaw would make her homemade biscuits and gravy (along with eggs, bacon, sausage, and several other sides). "Breakfast is the most important meal of the day" she would say. After my mamaw had passed i forgot the love, taste,passion, and pride that was put into her cooking. It wasnt until i saw a very clean and interesting diner that my mother and i decided to try out. We went inside and i could immediately tell that the atmosphere and smell reminded us of mamaws kitchen. It was then i knew i wanted to see if The Local Joint could even come close to her cooking. We sat down and were almost emiediatly waited on. I knew i had to try the gravy to see if it was anything like grandmothers and i shared my thinking with my mom. She said the same and when our order arrives i immediately try the gravy with my biscuts, eggs over easy popped on top and bacon on the side... WOW!!! I felt like jumping up running to the chef and asking where he was holding my grandmother. Instead I camly stood up and went to go compliment the chef, but as i was walking to the counter i noticed my mom right behind me and i asked " what are you doing"." Going to ask why they are making my mother cook for them" she said with a jokingly with a smile. I give The Local Joint 5 ? and would recommend it to any and everybody.
BBQ Salmon
Salmon special with mashed potatoes and gravy and vegetables was to die for! I've had it many times and it is consistently beautifully cooked. My husband always gets the Meatloaf Monday special. We love the Local Joint!
French Toast
I drive hours to get to this place and tell my friends about this!!! It is sooo delicious
Center Cut Top Sirloin
I have been a huge fan of the LJ since it opened! I think they have the best breakfast in town. I do miss the Dinner fish tacos as it was my favorite item but I have discovered the excellent choices for salads for lunch. They also know how to poach and egg without it being runny and the choices of poached egg dishes are all delicious. My favorite evening meal is the sirloin with mashed potatoes. The only thing I would change is I wish they at least have one pie as a dessert option. I do like cake but I am often too full to enjoy it. Their carrot cake is my favorite so sometimes I will take a slice home and snack on it for days. They give a generous serving. Now back to pie. Even a key lime or coconut cream would be appreciated. I would never fail to get dessert if I had one of those two choices.
Turkey Breakfast Sandwich
The Local Joint has become our favorite place to eat out. The menu is creative with a good variety of choices. The food is exceptionally good every single time! Prices are reasonable especially for the large serving sizes. At most places, I find a couple of things I like and order them every time. But this is one of few restaurants where I get something different every time because everything is good! Don't let the location fool you - this place is special!
Fairview Burger
Fantastic, juicy and outright delicious. A classic take on the burger
Home Fries
Me and my husband have eaten breakfast there many times, it never disappoints! The omelets are sooo good and we love the tempeh bacon, grits and side potatoes too. Always fast and friendly service.
Cuban Panini
Whenever my band plays at the Joint Next Door, I always look forward to getting a Cuban with the house chips from the Local Joint. Best Cuban in town!
Buffalo Shrimp
This salad did not disappoint! Great greens, fabulous buffalo sauce, perfect shrimp, and fantastic ranch. Decadent, a little spicy, yet good amount of greens. Perfection!
Shrimp and Grits
Delicious! Local Joint is a staple for me, my family, and friends. It has always had quality, friendly service and extraordinary food! The interesting flavor combinations are always great. Definitely check them out!
