Over priced.. Ordered a Sausage Egg and Cheese biscuit only -over $9 after tax. Was good - equivalent to CFA quality but CFA only charges $3.95.. Y'all need to be more competitive in pricing. read more

The food is good and very well priced for what you get. I prefer small privately owned restaurants over large corporation restaurants. I've enjoyed all 3 meals in the restaurant and have never been disappointed. read more

This is our go to place for a good reasonable meal. Super friendly staff. Warm decor. Food is always just right. Not fancy, just good.

This place came recommended from a friend who frequents this place because it is near his office. It also had 4 stars with ample number of reviews and was listed as one $ which is rare in Matthews. I sat at a booth on the side with the fireplace and my barber just happened to be at the table in front of me. He recommended the special so I followed suit. It came with 2 eggs, choice of meat, choose of hash browns, home fries or grits and toast or biscuits and I added white gravy. This was indeed a solid hearty breakfast for a great price. There is nothing fancy about this place but after my first experience and now having 2 friend vouch for it, I think it's safe to say that they provide a good service and consistent food in an inviting homey atmosphere. The coffee was good and they kept my cup full the entire time I was seated. Enough said. Give it a try. read more

Americana restaurant, I got no problem with it.This family style restaurant is clean,nice and well ran. Had the iron skillet breakfast. I got no problem with it. My wife had two eggs bacon and home fries with toast. She got no problem with it. I had a side of biscuits and gravy. I got no problem with it.I had a glass of sweet tea, I got no problem with it.I also had a side of grits with cheese. I got a problem with that, that's why you lost one star. The grits tasted like Quaker Oats and they put a slice of cheese in it and didn't mix it up. Americana restaurant overall I got no problem with it. Lol May God Bless all my fellow foodies Always. read more

Yuck! This was about the worst breakfast I've had in a long time. First off about 1/4 of the staff is wearing a mask and that small percentage isn't wearing them properly. Second the service is subpar. Our server didn't make sure the lid was on top of my nieces cup and she spilled it 2 twice. She wasn't attentive, didn't wear a mask and didn't account for the mistake she made on our order. Third was the food. No one in my family enjoyed their food. No one completed a dish. We ordered 2 Western omelettes (1 with grits and toast the other with hashbrowns and toast), 2 Country Fried Steaks (both with grits, eggs and toast). The toast was cold at arrival to the table. I wouldn't say I will be coming back here anytime soon. Americana Restaurant 1628 Matthews Mint Hill Rd, Matthews, NC 28105 Saturday May 15, 2021 9am (Review 493 overall, 37 in 2021) read more

This place is classic diner cuisine! The patty melt is the best in Charlotte and the onion rings are old school and proper! Service is always attentive and friendly. The Greek dishes are really special and healthy. Support local and go now! read more

I've tried it 3 times because I saw a review that talked about how delicious they were. I have now come to a decision about that. I believe they must have paid them to do a bogus review because all three times I ate there it was the nastiest food I ever put in my mouth. Gross! read more

This little diner is a gem for sure, and not a well-hidden one either. Not for night owls, come early for the specials and come often for they change every day. You'll be spoiled for choice with the many vegetable sides offered and spoiled for sweets as well with several lovely handmade desserts in the cooler. In the City full of great diners, this one is darn near the top! A favorite for locals, and a treat for those visiting from out of town. Come in and enjoy the excellent pork chops and Superior service. read more

My husband and I both grew up in Matthews and recently moved back. We have never eaten here before tonight. Can I just say WOW!!! I got the double cheeseburger with fries and ordered a side salad. He ordered the pork soulvaki meal and again WOW! The burger was awesome, Juicy and a tiny greasy but just the right amount. I let some of it drip (came out slowly) over my fries. Sooo AMAZING! And I don't gush over burgers. The tzatziki sauce was easily the best I have ever had and I am a tzatziki snob. I feel bad for overlooking them in the past, no reason, I just have. We did use a delivery service, but apparently that was a no no. We will be back and in person!!! Just wow and thank you for an amazing dining experience! read more

Breakfast is always yummy, fast and the service is always great! It's your hometown diner at its finest.

Great food with a large menu. They have numerous daily specials with expansive veggie menu. The restaurant is nice and has that southern homey feel. The staff is friendly and attentive. They do a great job with takeout orders, having most orders usually completed the times I've ordered done in around 10 minutes. Portions are good. The cornbread is excellent, as is the collard greens, potato salad and most sides. My husband always gives the fish a 10/10. Always prompt and efficient. Prices are very reasonable! Highly recommend. read more

This restaurants quality and service has really gone downhill since the new owner took over. A lot of the wait staff take their time getting your order and act like they're being bothered to do so! Forget getting a refill on drinks. I know a lot of it has to do with there being many jobs to choose from now after the Pandemic,but they could still hire people that give a darn!! Foods not that great anymore either. read more

I am in the area frequently to visit family and this place is very close to where I stay. The location isn't anything out of an architecture magazine-but the food and service are fantastic. I opted for over medium eggs during both visits and they were perfect. My coffee mug was never empty. The wait staff is polite and attentive. I will keep returning. read more

Great food, great price, fantastic service. My favorite place in Charlotte. I eat here at least 2x per week. Highly recommend

Nothing like a local favorite. We lived literally 1mile away and hadn't been there until recently. I'm glad we went! The service is great, it's definitely a locals hangout. The servers knew people by name! The daily specials are great options and there's something for everyone. We've fallen in love with the chicken fried steak...OMG so yummy! The best part, it's a reasonable price for a hearty meal! Can't beat that at all! I have been calling in orders as the dine in is always super busy. But I'll dine in as well...don't get me wrong, but you have to get there at a good time or you could wait for a little bit. Although, it is worth the wait! Check it out if you're around! read more

I just relocated to Charlotte and it had been years since I've been here. My parents and I stopped in on 7:30 Monday night and it was steady, but not busy. We sat at a large table right at the front and our waitress was quick, efficient, and friendly. We never went without a drink (which is a huge indicator for quality service in my opinion). I opted to get the special which was fried chicken and gravy over mashed potatoes and 2 sides (they have plenty of side options and I chose fried squash and a salad). My mom got pork tips over rice with collards and a salad, and my dad chose pork chops with fries and a salad. The portions were great for the price (each entree roughly $7.95) and the food was tasty. My only issue was my fried chicken was a little dry. I could still eat it, but it definitely required sauce. Overall great diner with reasonable prices and good service. read more

Americana Restaurant - Chicken and dumplings - American Near Me - Matthews, North Carolina

The waitresses & cashiers are NOT wearing masks at Americanna. Paper menus. Regular silverware exposed, wrapped in a napkin. Bread baskets brought to table with salt & pepper packets. Booths taped off but some tables are closer than 6'. Majority of the patrons- no mask. Saw one group of customers of older ladies wear masks when walking in the door. The food was delicious. Chicken & dressing was very good. Shrimp was good. read more

I didn't have high hopes but the food blew me away. I just wanted a sandwich and they had good prices, I wasn't expecting much but the food was absolutely incredible. I ended up getting the souvlaki and it was one of the best versions I've ever had. The owner apparently didn't like that I used a delivery service but the taste to price ratio was off the charts. I apparently shouldn't use a delivery service again but I will be back. read more

My family got takeout from the Americana last weekend and really enjoyed it. I got a grilled chicken salad and was pleasantly surprised at how flavorful and juicy the chicken was. Our order was rather late in the evening and I expected the chicken to have been refrigerated and on the dry side. On the contrary the chicken had been cooked fresh and was really delicious. The lettuce was fresh and crisp (again a pleasant surprise) and the house ranch was tasty. My daughter ordered the calabash shrimp with fries and onion rings. The shrimp had a great flavor, a bit greasy for my liking but my daughter and husband both enjoyed it. The fries and onion rings were nicely cooked and crispy even after the drive from the restaurant to the house. The portions were generous and the prices were fair. We'll be back! read more

First time here, family friendly restaurant. Good service, reasonably priced food. Had the burger, it was pretty flavorful, others in the party had the turkey sandwich and a steak sandwich. Steak was a little fatty, but not bad. Will be back to see how breakfast is. read more

Americana Restaurant - Lovely photo of mom, lol - American Near Me - Matthews, North Carolina

Used to be one of our go-to places. Good food and decent service. Friendly atmosphere. Supported a few times with to go orders during closure. When dining in was allowed, we immediately went back. Disappointed that mask wearing was not enforced among employees especially considering large portion of customers are high risk. Came back after mandated mask wearing. Our waitress wore her mask as a chin guard the whole time and got right in people's faces. The owner did the same. Very disappointed. Will not go back for a long time. read more

We came here for breakfast and left as full as can be. For the money you can't beat this place. The portions were huge. My fiancé and I both had coffee and an entree for a whopping $16.00. I had an omelette with hash browns and both were good. We definitely plan on coming back. Come early or you might have to wait as the place was filling up when we left (we got there around 7:15 and sat right down). Wait staff was very friendly as well. read more

I only go here for breakfast and have been going for many years. The food is GREAT and the price is right.

Had the Mahi Mahi fish with fries and coleslaw special. A bit overcooked on the fish and small portion of fries and normal portion of coleslaw. Also ordered a side of fried squash which was excellent as usual. Coleslaw was fine chopped, which is not my preference, but tasted slightly sweet and was crunchy and freshly made. Fries a bit soggy and shoestring style. Portion good for me, but most people would wonder why skimp on the fries. Great service, as usual. Great prices. Just fell a little short on the food today :-( read more

I drove past this place for a year, not even knowing what this place was. And we have been a couple of times now and I was pleasantly surprised to find a great American diner right around the corner. Nothing beats the Americana for breakfast; cheap, delicious, and fast. It is becoming a Saturday morning tradition for me. Love their omelette and hash browns, and I also appreciate the honoring of our armed forces in the waiting area. Top shelf Americana. read more
