The Herban Legend is ok. Not great, not the worst I've had in Charlotte, but ok.\n\nStopped by during one of the Chow Down Uptown nights recently, since they're all the buzz. A got a Cuban and I ordered a shwarma, since I seem to be subconsciously developing a thing for Arabic and Mediterranean food. We also split some truffle fries.\n\nThe shwarma wasn't bad. The meat was a bit dry (had that heat lamp texture), but the yogurt sauce didn't really revitalize it - it soaked the pita and made for quite the mess. I feel fortunate we found a table and I wasn't trying to eat my dissolving sandwich standing up. The fries were good (who doesn't love truffle fries?), but the truffle oil and salt seemed to really soak in to the bottom layers - nature of the beast I guess?\n\nAll things considered, it was decent and I can clearly see their popularity. If I run into them again, I will try them in less crowd-swarming conditions before I render a final verdict.
