    Pancake tacos
    Mary e.

    Friday breakfast. The menu here is full of so many great dishes, it is a challenge to choose just one. I opted for the Piedmont Omelette. Delicious cheesy and full of yummy meats and veggies. The creamy dreamy grits are the best I've ever had. So lusciously creamy and buttery. You don't even need to salt. Coffee is great. We ate outside on the patio in nice cool weather. The service was ok but we had to get up to get our condiments and sugars. I still highly recommend if in the Matthew's Charlotte area.

    My cousin and I did a long walk at squirrel lake park and went to brunch after. We were seated outside quickly and our waitress greeted us with much needed waters. I ordered a buffaloes chicken wrap with chips and my cousin got a breakfast plate. Everything came out quickly and was good. You can't go wrong with their menu! I recommend adding a side of ranch to go with the chips!

    First time at this location and honestly was not impressed. Walked up around 10:45 am just to see what the wait time would be for 2 people. We were immediately sat which was great. Unfortunately, we waited for about 20 minutes before our waitress came out to take our order, and that's only because I asked if our waitress could come out and at least take our drink order. Ordered their pancake tacos, and their piedmont omelet. Honestly, the omelet was not that great. The bacon bits inside were super black and burnt and tasted very old. The egg also just tasted like it had been sitting out under a light. It was very dry and just did not have any taste to it. The biscuit was very cold, dry, and hard. Not fluffy at all. The only tasty things were the grits and the dust potatoes. Those were very delicious. Warm, crisp, and very well marinated. Wouldn't come back again.

    This is a charming eatery with a cozy atmosphere. It is a go-to spot for breakfast and brunch. One of the standout items on their menu is the waffle, which is perfectly golden and crispy on the outside while remaining fluffy on the inside. I also enjoyed their creamy grits. The ambiance is intimate and welcoming, though the tables tend to be on the smaller side. Whether you're there for the waffles, grits, or just a warm cup of coffee, you'll most likely leave satisfied.

    Deconstructed biscuit, eggs, and gravy (at my request) - so good!

    My husband and I have been to this location of Flying Biscuit a couple of times. It's a little smaller than the Park Road location, but a perfect location to have breakfast before visiting Matthews Alive during Labor Day weekend. I like their Biscuit, Eggs, and Gravy dish. Their chicken sausage gravy is SO good, and I also love their creamy grits (it reminds me of Midnight Diner's version). I asked for the biscuit on the side this last visit so I could hand it over to my husband, and they delivered all of the components in a deconstructed fashion. Very cool! The scrambled eggs are always perfectly done here, too. My husband loves their Hangover Hash, with over-medium eggs. They are generous with their queso portion, and they always cook the eggs just right. Their biscuits are really good, too, especially with the apple butter that's available on every table. The Matthews location is a little more cramped than Park Road. Service is pretty speedy, however, even on a busy festival weekend. We'll definitely return!

    Not bad. Went for breakfast and sat outside. We didn't have a reservation but were quickly seated. Menu is pretty good. I had basically a deconstructed egg, bacon and cheese biscuit. Just had coffee and water this visit. Server was friendly and attentive. Good atmosphere. Nice breakfast.

    Smoked Salmon & egg omelette

    Yummy breakfast food! I have enjoyed their food. I had the smoked salmon & egg omelette with potatoes and biscuit. Very good flavor and portions. We came for lunch and had a wonderful service. They were super fast. I parked by the shops down the road because things are always busy. I love their biscuits! Fluffy and delicious!

    Easter breakfast.
    Brian V.

    Got a table at 11am on Easter morning in 15 minutes on the patio. Started with a cup of bottomless coffee while we wait patiently for our server to take our order. After our server delivered the coffee I asked for cream and sugar. Then after I finished my first cup, I had to ask for a second cup and wait for quite a while. They seemed to be very under staffed on the patio so this is more on the management than the server for sure. I ordered the hangover hash while looked very appetizing. 2 issues I found is the amount of queso was very little and the chicken was very dry. The menu said a "heavy downpour" of queso and that was definitely not the case. The chicken was a breaded & fried chicken breast and it appeared the dryness was due to the chicken being cooked and cut ahead of time instead of when the meal was ordered and served. This was our first time here and if the issues were caused or exasperated by Easter I would give them a pass, but quality of food is not tied to the holiday. It comes down to pour standards or execution by the kitchen staff. These types of food quality failures should be addressed before the food is served to their customers. 3 stars at best.

    Thank you to Sean at Metro Diner for making my pickup order experience great! I was picking up a…read morespecial lunch order for my team in recognition of Employee Appreciation, and Sean took the extra time to make sure everything was perfect. He double-checked that the order was correct and made sure I had extra utensils, condiments, and everything we needed. That level of service really stands out. It meant a lot to me because this was something special I was doing for my team, and Sean helped make sure it went smoothly. Thank you again! Although I didn't get pictures of the food this time, everything was amazing. I will definitely be back and will take pictures next time. Please check them out, won't be disappointed.

    First and foremost, I want to preface by saying I believe in second chances and redemption, not…read moretrickery and bribes. Typically, when someone from a restaurant reaches out to me about my review, especially when they are not 5 star, I instantly become skeptical. However, this owner made me feel comfortable to share my thoughts and explain how my visit went before anything else. Over the years, I have received tons of owners offering me a free meal in exchange for my integrity but I could tell this owner was extremely genuine and wanted to make sure my voice was heard. The initial post will remain the same but I wanted to amend some of the initial remarks including the service. The first time I tried this place, I received service that was not in alignment to the core values and standards this restaurant upholds, which, I am human and I have worked in food service for years so trust me, I get it. Since being back twice since my initial visit, I have been treated like family. The service has been up to par and the staff has been incredibly friendly. As far as the ambiance, it gives the feel of an old diner which makes it charming and lovable. Perhaps, some restorations and furnishings can be done nothing that isn't manageable. Lastly, I wanted to make sure to do a thorough review of the menu so when I went back twice after my initial review, I tried a menu item for each the breakfast menu and the dinner menu. The food was great! It was favorable, warm and packed with fresh ingredients. I tried the ribs and Mac and cheese as well as a breakfast plate on two separate occasions without letting the restaurant know I was coming back for a remake. The only thing I wasn't super thrilled about was the Mac and Cheese, other than that it was good. It goes to saying that their standards are commendable as they do care about their service, food and experience of the customers.

They call it a 1/2 pound burger and it is every bit of that. The burger itself was very juicy and full of flavor. I had a side of Mac n cheese. Some of the bits of it were a little over cooked, but pretty good overall. I might try a different side next time. I sat at the bar since I was by myself. I wish I'd gotten the bartenders name, but she provided the nicest service I've had in a while when eating out. Across the restaurant industry, prices have gone up making it more difficult to eat out. It's nice knowing that not all people in the service industry take their role for granted. It made my rare dining trip out worthwhile. Looking forward to going back out to Mac's next time I'm craving a big juicy burger.

We got the beans, mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, street corn, fried pickles and egg rolls as sides/starters. The fried pickles were soggy however it was a Door Dash order so that could have been the issue. The egg rolls were good. The mac and cheese and street corn were both good. The mashed potatoes were okay, but not great. We did not like the beans at all. Tried a bunch of sauces. They didn't come labeled so not sure what we liked. Would definitely go back for the ribs, egg rolls, and mac and cheese!
