I think it's the best salad bar in the county. Love it. We eat there once a week at least.

Nice people, good family restaurant. I agree the best salad bar around!

Just wont to let you know the food was no good chicken was cold got apptiz last but it was nothing the waitress did .

I9

Bad bad experience .... never again . Poor service and food is not good

I have been there recently and I received the same high quality service and food that we are used to. Excellent salad bar as always.

We stopped here on a whim while driving through. The food was standard fair, cooked well but nothing that will knock your socks off, the prices were fair as well. The service however was exceptional, our waitress was very friendly and took time to explain all of our questions since it was out first time . The salad bar which we did not get looked amazing and very clean, would eat here again if just to try that salad bar 😁

Their salad bar is the best I have eaten. So many different choices. Karen took our orders and was very nice and responsive. We enjoyed our conversations with her during the course of our visit. The food we ordered was good. I wish they had a senior menu.

Food has no flavor. The best thing about Boxcar is the 🥗 salad bar 🥗.

Enjoyed the calabash shrimp extraordinary dinner rolls and wonderful customer service. The person I was traveling with said "hands down the best catfish I have had in a long time." Overall great experience, will definitely stop there again while traveling that way. Be sure not to miss the specials on the wall just to the left as you enter the foyer

The most rude service ever the phone and when picking up my food. Laura was extremely rude for the second time and Christan hung up on me. Last time I placed an order it was the same. Please respond to my complaint about your employees!

Service was decent. Portions were good. Food was incredibly salty. My friend ordered "pan fried" potatoes as a side and it came out as home-made potato chips. When she asked if that was a mistake, she was told those were pan-fried potatoes. Very misleading item description. The grilled chicken with mushrooms and onions was very good, except for the amount of salt. If I complain about salt, it was total overload. Nice atmosphere inside.

Boxcar is a staple in our family! Many birthdays and special occasions shared here! Excellent southern comfort food for a very fair price. The atmosphere is so welcoming and the staff is beyond great and friendly! If you like salad bars, this place has a great one! Always fresh and clean, not a huge selection on the bar but what they do have is fantastic! I do recommend going early for dinner as there will be a wait! Easy to get to from the interstate! They also do wonderful catering if you want the same great food at your event or occasion! I've tried them and they have done an excellent job!

It's okay. Food is average however, the prices keep increasing. Some food selections are overpriced and it's nothing special or has changed in the last 10 years. Salad bar is about all I see worth ordering but still a little high priced.

Do yourself a favor and don't eat here. The restaurant was dirty even though there were very few people in the restaurant. It took over 15 minutes for us to be able to order and at least 20 before the server finally came to get us our check. Again,they were not busy at all.We were there for over an hour. I hoped the food would have made up for it but it tasted like it came from a can essentially. KFCs potatoes are better. I will never go here again. We have been trying to find good local restaurants and so far we have had very little luck.

We normally eat at the Statesville location. We decided to eat at this location today and to be candid it was better than the Statesville location. Meat loaf was awesome, burger and salad was awesome.

This was our first visit. We enjoyed it very much. We had the Jesse James burger. It has eight ounces of meat with the toppings you choose and a generous order of fries that we couldn't finish. I highly recommend this place and hope to go back again if I am in the area. Great service as well.

Railroad themed restaurant with good service and comfort foods. They also have a large salad bar. G scale train cars are placed throughout the premises painted and lettered for local businesses. It is an easy stop if you are traveling on I-40 and is more unique than the chain restaurants.

The food here is always good. The salad bar is better than any other I know of.My biggest complaint is they now charge a surcharge for using a card. That's definitely a problem for me because I don't usually carry cash.

This was an absolute gem of a dive. The decor was fun and tasteful. The restaurant was clean. The food came quickly and was delicious. They have a salad bar that is fully stocked and very generous portions. The fries are natural cut. The pork chops were thick and the shrimp was amazing! Our one year old had fun looking at all of the train decor and the waitress was nice. We did need refills at one point but didn’t have to wait too long. We will be back!

It is good and the same as it was the last time i went 7 years ago. The atmosphere is the same. Unfortunately I cannot go that often because it's 2 hour drive for me to get there.
