Seating
Brittany G.

I enjoyed the decor of this restaurant and the coffee. But that's about where it ends for me. My server was attentive at first, but then he became distant further towards my exiting of the restaurant. I didn't like that. I got the chorizo hash and the potatoes tasted like they were cooked a day ahead. The texture made me not want to eat them. The salsa did not go with this meal.

Hangover Hash

Everything was sooo good! The portion sizes were huge and we had a lot to take home and eat later. The fall coffees were also incredible! We came in around noon on a Saturday and they were able to accommodate us (2 people) immediately. The inside is decor is so cool, with paintings all around. We will definitely be back.

Shrimp & grits
James E.

Had the grits with a few additions. WOW.. ONLY Had 4/5 shrimp in it though . girlfriend had the southern Benedict.. All the food was great . Service was great and FAST.. Ambiance was cool. Music was playing. A definite must if in the area... Check this place out y'all

Tasty food with creative twists. Waffles perfectly cooked and chicken fingers full of flavors. Breading on fingers very crunchy and good. Portions are huge! Gravy was sparse and odd. Not my grandmothers thick and flavorful gravy - rather a thinner chunked blend. Good but not great. I suggest getting it on the side so you can control where it lands on your plate. Because I eat like a toddler, I ordered a separate plate and dismantled the eggs, gravy, and chicken from atop my waffle. It was too much at the party for me but tasted great separately.

Chai Tea Latte
Keeley M.

This place has always been a favorite of mine! I love their food but the portions are big. This time I got the southern scramble and the eggs had such a good smoked flavor! It was more than I could eat but, as always, it was delicious. I also got a chair tea latte which was good but I've had better elsewhere. Overall good food and I really like this restaurant.

Mini Shrimp and Grits
Angela D.

This is one of my favorite places in Charlotte to eat. First time review for the restaurant. I had the mini shrimp n grits and the fried green tomatoes. It was perfect. The wait wasn't overly long as it was Sunday Brunch. Service was great. Overall highly recommend.

Honey Butter Chicken Benedict
Danielle H.

While recently in the area, me and my boyfriend stopped in for brunch at The Flying Biscuit Cafe. We had to wait on a table, but the area is full of shops so we were able to shop while we waited. I started the meal with an iced vanilla latte. It was pretty good but just your standard latte. I ordered the honey butter chicken Benedict as my entree which came with grits. The grits were my favorite part! They were super creamy and buttery. I understand why they call them the creamy dreamy grits. The chicken had a nice flavor but it was two large pieces of chicken over a small biscuit so I wish there was more biscuit. The scrambled eggs on top were just okay but I could've done without them. They didn't really add anything to the dish. It was a nice lunch and our service was good, so I'd go back.

We stopped at Flying Biscuit oin the Park Road Shopping Center for a late breakfast/brunch this past week.. We arrived around 11:00 AM, a bit after the breakfast crowd and before the lunch crowd filled the place up. This place tends to be busy! Because their food is soooo good! And the service is equally good. The interior is eclectic but very comfortable. Its easy to linger over coffee after the meal is done. Their menu is extensive so order a beverage and take your time deciding what to order. There are lots of good choices.

The grits! That's all I need to say. Lol. Okay, here's my review: Walking in, the presentation initially turned me off, but I decided to give it a try. Our waitress Zoe was friendly and knowledgeable, and she provided us with some excellent recommendations. My wife opted for the hot honey butter chicken and waffles, while I chose the stuffed French toast. The portions were quite generous, so make sure to come hungry.

Avo toast, I asked the kitchen to add cilantro. Over easy egg and fruit.
Kathleen A.

Came in on a Sunday morning, quoted at a 1 hour wait and we were sat in 40mins! Waitress was very kind and attentive to our 6 top table. We all enjoyed our food! I got their Avocado Toast, pro tip: ask for cilantro on top! It's a fresh addition to their tomatoes they top it with. I do wish however their fruit was ripe. It was a disappointment to receive overly firm fruit with no sweetness. (Pictured below) My husband ordered their pancake tacos. The presentation was very sloppy. It was loaded eggs on top of very large thick pancakes. There was no "form" to them. If they were thinner and smaller in taco trays it would have ate better. Though the concept was there! Overall, we really enjoyed our food all eggs were cooked to our liking, and had a great waitress!

Cranberry Apple Sauce, Butter, Syrup
Catherine F.

Everything was excellent! We expected this place to be packed (and for good reason), but the wait was not bad at all; our expected wait time was 35 minutes, but we ended up getting seated in 20. Service was very fast, and our food came fresh from the kitchen; I could still see some steam coming out of my Southern Scramble when it was brought to me. Upon taking my first bite, I was greeted by the perfect combination of eggs, bacon, collard greens, onions, and cheese. This delicious combination continued, and I practically ate my plate clean by the end of my meal. The biscuit that came with my plate was soft and crumbly and paired well with the cranberry apple sauce that was already waiting for us on the table. The grits were creamy and a great side for the rest of the plate. There were many other options on the menu that also stood out to me; I can't wait to come back again hopefully soon to try them!

French toast
Cherelle J.

We ordered the French toast scrambled eggs, grits , biscuit and a Belgian waffle. The French toast was good the sauces that came with it were very good. The waffle was good, I didn't care for the eggs. They came with nothing, the biscuit was ok and the grits were very good.

Chorizo Hash | Instagram @restaurant_aholic
Lauren K.

The Honey Butter Chicken Benedict is not your typical Benedict! Buttermilk chicken tenders and cheesy scrambled eggs come on a biscuit with home-made honey butter. I added some additional honey to give it a bit of "sauce". The Chorizo Hash is a LARGE portion of chicken chorizo potatoes, red and green peppers, onions, and cheddar cheese topped with two medium eggs, salsa and cilantro. My only dislike was, the Bloody Mary had good flavor but was very ordinary. I didn't come with anything in it not even a stalk of celery.

As a girl born in Texas, a really good chicken fried steak is practically part of my DNA. It's one…read moreof those comfort foods I don't eat often because it's so rich--but when I see it on a menu, it absolutely catches my attention. That's exactly what drew me to The Southern Pecan in SouthPark. Here in the South, they call it country fried steak, and I'm happy to report this one did not disappoint. I met a colleague there for lunch, and everything about the experience felt easy from the start. The restaurant is located in Phillips Place, a lovely little shopping area that feels a bit polished and upscale--with shops like Orvis, Tory Burch, and even a Restoration Hardware restaurant nearby. They do offer valet parking, which is a nice touch, though honestly parking is easy enough on your own. We had reservations through OpenTable and were seated on the patio, which was absolutely delightful for this time of year in Charlotte. The weather was perfect, the setting was relaxed, and the service started off warm and welcoming right away. Now, the food. The country fried steak was beautifully cooked--crispy on the outside, tender inside, and served with creamy mashed potatoes and gravy that hit all the nostalgic notes from my Texas upbringing. I paired it with a vegetable side (I believe it was broccoli or corn), and it was a classic Southern plate done right. We also enjoyed a couple of cocktails, and to finish, we split a praline bread pudding, which felt like the perfect Southern ending to the meal--sweet, comforting, and indulgent without being overwhelming. The staff was friendly and attentive, and one of the things I continue to appreciate about Charlotte is how easy it is to connect with people. We even chatted with diners at nearby tables, which added to that welcoming, community feel that makes dining out here so enjoyable--especially for someone coming from the Bay Area. Prices felt fair for the quality, the setting, and the portion sizes, and overall the experience left a great impression. Bottom line: If you're craving a solid Southern classic like country fried steak--or just want a relaxed patio lunch in a charming part of SouthPark--The Southern Pecan is definitely worth a visit. And as someone happily eating my way through Charlotte and the Southeast, this stop was another reminder that the journey has been a delicious one.

I've heard rave reviews about this place so Michelle & I went for Sunday Brunch…read more They recommended a reservation so we had one @ 12n. It was already quite busy when we arrived and it's not clear where your parking options are. People are pulling up to the entrance and dropping people off so it gets jammed up and chaotic, of course people are running late so those BIG Yukons and Suburbans are making it a challenge to navigate a small entrance area. You would THINK they would at least have a Valet option of Sat/Sun during Brunch. To park, go BEHIND the restaurant on the street to the left and you'll see some free parking options that are close and walkable. We asked for a table on the patio and were immediately seated. The bar was already buzzing with solo diners enjoying their Mimosas. The patio is NOT that big, a little over crowded and table are very close with not much space in between. There was a LARGE group of 'FUN' ladies right beside us enjoying their MIMOSAS, dropping the 'F' bomb from time to time and making a LOT of noise. What can you do? Nothing but try to make the best of it and just start talking LOUDER like everyone else. The OVERHEAD heaters were way too intense so the Staff was very responsive at our request to turn down the heat. We shared the BBQ Shrimp Starter which was SO good, I highly recommend. I had the Gumbo and Michelle had the beet and goat cheese salad. We both had the Red Fish which comes with smashed potatoes and broccoli. The potatoes were so BLAND, the broccoli had NO seasoning. The Red Fish wasn't that great of a flavor and not very tender, not easy to cut, had to use my knife at times to get a bite. Kinda disappointed, I lived in N Orleans for a couple of years and it was always so good there. The biggest disappointment was the Gumbo. It had all the right ingredients but the ROUX was to strong, dark and heavy. It actually gave me indigestion afterwards. The service was OUTSTANDING. Our Server was Daylean, she was so nice and helpful with the menu and kept our refills coming.

It has a cozy indoor dining area and a cute side patio, right in the heart of NoDa. We made a reservation online for four people, which was easy and definitely recommended since reservations can be limited. They do accept walk-ins when space is available. Haberdish is known for its fried chicken, and our table tried several different options. I ordered the dark meat chicken, one friend got the two-piece white meat, another got the Nashville hot chicken, and another ordered the Haberdish Stack. Everything was delicious. For starters and sides, we shared the deviled eggs, mac and cheese with crispy chicken skin, Brussels sprouts, hush puppies, and a cinnamon roll. The Brussels sprouts were fantastic, and the hush puppies were the standout for me. They came with a sweet butter that was absolutely incredible. We also enjoyed mimosas with brunch. Our server was friendly and attentive, and the entire experience was wonderful from start to finish. The food was excellent, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, and it's definitely a place I'll be returning to. Next time I want to check out the dinner menu because brunch was so good.

The atmosphere ties it all together: dim lighting, cozy vibes, and the perfect spot to settle in for elevated comfort food. A charlotte staple

If you ask your server, you are likely to hear the entire story of the place. It's pretty amazing. They recently received a Michelin recommendation and it's totally deserved. It's a buffet, but most of the hot food is actually served by a person which is something that I particularly appreciate. (I really don't like touching the handles of spoons that hundreds of people have touched.) Some of the stuff is self serve but not any of the hot dishes. Absolutely everything I tried was outstanding. Like everything. There are a few things that they consider "pass around" which means that they are brought over to you by a server at random intervals. For everything else, you just help yourself. I went with a friend of mine who has a deep appreciation for a southern food. He was absolutely amazed. Honestly, I can't think of a better place to have chosen to eat in a short time I had in Charlotte. I've attached a picture of the menu. I tried just about everything. I wasn't disappointed in a single thing, and I was completely wowed by many of them. The servers were wonderful. Very friendly and very willing to talk to us about the history and the food items that were there. Highest recommendation!

It had been quite a while since my last visit, but with guests staying Uptown, it seemed like the perfect excuse for an evening stroll and dinner together. The location is convenient, the space is inviting, and the service was excellent from start to finish. There were five of us, so we shared several dishes, which is the best way to experience the menu. We started with the famous biscuits, which support a good cause, and an order of fried okra. While I'm personally partial to ultra-thin, crispy okra chips, Tupelo Honey's version was enjoyable and a crowd-pleaser at the table. For entrées, we shared the shrimp and grits, fried chicken sandwich, and chicken and waffles. Portions were generous enough for everyone to sample a little bit of everything. Nothing was particularly groundbreaking, but everything was prepared well and satisfied the craving for classic Southern comfort food. The drinks were equally enjoyable, with sweet tea, Arnold Palmers, cocktails, and plenty of conversation to go around. We finished with banana pudding, which was easily one of the highlights of the meal. The staff was knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. If you're driving, valet parking is available, which makes visiting Uptown a little easier. Is it the best meal you'll have in Charlotte? Probably not. But it's consistent, comfortable, and a solid choice for groups, visitors, or anyone looking for familiar Southern favorites in a fun setting. Life is too short not to eat well, Charlotte. Get out there and enjoy the city one meal at a time.

It was all Hospitality. The first interaction was like we had stepped into someone's home and were told to make ourselves at home. And the rest was the same. The gentleman walked us through the menu. Pretty much the entire line up of options. Not a condescending or impatient tone - warm and welcoming. Same with the next person. Even convinced my friend to get a dessert. Not that I need my arm twisted. The dining area was well kept. Clean. The condiments were well stocked and organized. I saw two different team members taking care of business there even asking if I needed anything. Bathrooms were immaculate. Don't see that very often - at least I don't in public places. The food was what we were looking for. Comfort food. With taste, not muted - just good flavor and consistency. A far cry from the bland, dry foods we had experienced the days prior. It was one of the first meals I really enjoyed on this trip to NC. Not saying that others were bad - they just didn't align with my taste preferences/expectations. Something about how Fried Chicken and Pork Chops are prepared in the South (or NOT California). Tender. Juicy. Mac & Cheese - not watery or overcooked. And I don't think I've ever had bad collared greens in my life. It's one of the handful of green vegetables I love having. Almost forgot parking. It's in kinda a plaza/strip mall setting. Free space and lots when we went (lunch). Not having to look for or pay for parking is always a plus for me. So, it's a chain. But I'd definitely go back.

Don't let the random location fool you; HA Pigsmith's is busting out some mean eats, with hefty portions and affordable prices. How it works: Follow @so_science on Instagram, and they'll post the week's menu over the weekend. The themes vary every week, so keep an eye on it! You have until midnight on Tuesday to email them with your order. On Wednesday morning, you get an email with payment and pick-up details, and then you swing by the back of the church between 4 and 7 PM on Wednesday to pick up your goods! Pretty easy process, especially if you live close by. So far we've gotten dishes from their BBQ menu (brisket, bbq beans, cheese and mac) and their Greek menu (moussaka with side Greek salad, gyro with fries). Everything is restaurant quality. Let me rephrase: everything is excellent restaurant quality! Like what I would expect if I went to a BBQ joint or Greek spot that specialize in that type of cuisine. Pretty incredible. We originally found out about HA's from a neighbor, and I added this business page to Yelp to be able to share my photos and experiences to help spread the word about this awesome local spot!

My friend had the shrimp and grits and she loved it. The ambiance gives rustic and a little casual.

The Crunkleton has been on my list of restaurants to visit for quite some time and finally got my…read morefriends together to go. It's beautifully decorated (I fell in love with the bathroom decor) and the bar area is lovely and we stocked. Our server Natasha O was exceptional. She explained items on the menu and even made a drink recommendation that was not listed. For appetizers we had the fig salad and the large portion was more than enough for 3 people with leftovers. We shared the charred oysters and I really with we had gotten a dozen because they were perfection! I had the Wagyu burger which was 1/2 pound and I brought half of it home. It was complimented with truffle shoestring fries. Great portion sizes, amazing service and beautiful decor. I will surely come back. Hope I get sat in Natasha's section again she was amazing! Parking as always is tight in that area so plan accordingly.
