Lodge Wood Fired Grill 10175 Weddington Road, Concord, NC 28027

"Restaurant was beautiful and cozy. Our server was very polite, on top of our order/drinks, and was very quick. Our only complaint was the food. We ordered the meatball appetizer and we thoroughly enjoyed that. The issue we had was our dinner meals. My husband ordered the ribs. I do not recommend!!! They were extremely tough and not worth $34. We had to use a knife to cut the meat off. Only 3 ribs were actually eaten. (My husband ate 2 and I attempted to eat one. I couldn’t finish it. I had to get my steak remade… The first one came out burned on the bottom; too much charring as it overwhelmed the flavor of the steak. Second steak was better. Was it worth $38? No. Not in my opinion. While this place is convenient; the food was not as enjoyable as we had hoped for paying $100 for 2 adults and a child. Again the server and cook were very nice…. But there are better restaurants surrounding the GWL. We won’t be eating here again."

"A surprisingly solid option for food that isn't pizza-and-nuggies in Great Wolf Lodge. The food was nice - Korean sticky wings saucy and tasty, beef short rib bolognese pasta rich with perfectly cooked rigatoni (I did have one pure gristle piece though), kids pasta and meatballs good. The food came fast. Service was genial. Only complaints would be a lack of variety in menu (only one soup, only two pastas, etc), but a focused menu may be a relief to some. Also, I was surprised and disappointed that they didn't have any kids coloring pages at opening time."

"Our large group of 16 went to eat here while staying at GWL. We showed up at 8:10, they said it was a 20 minute wait, and it was. We were the only people in the restaurant, with several workers around. After a long wait, the server took about half our table's drink orders and then walked away. When she finally came back, we let her know we'd like to go ahead and order food. She seemed really flustered and like she just didn't know what to do. She did take the rest of our drink orders, then app orders, and then was willing to take food orders. We waited a very long time for food, and when it came it was so so. I got the chicken lettuce wraps, and the chicken was incredibly hard, chewy, and just tasted old. The rest of the dish was fine, but it was lettuce, corn, and carrots. Other people seemed to have a better experience with their food, so it seems if you order wisely the food can be good. But overall, we were the only people there, staff seemed overwhelmed, it was expensive and not that great. If you're at GWL, there's are better options for the money in the area."

"Food was brought out after a long wait and fries were cold on all the plates. We said something and they offered to bring fesh fries but by the time we got those fries our other food was cold. My son had drank all his drink before food came and almost ate all his food before we had to ask for a refill. We never got refills unless we asked for them. Finally just asked for box and drinks to go. Was very disappointed in a $38 plate of steak and fries."

"We came here for a late dinner tonight while staying at GWL. Our food wavers good, our service was outstanding. Our server, Taylor was wonderful. She was super kind to us. We had the bacon cheeseburger, a pretzel appetizer and rack of ribs. All were great!"
