Nice restaurant opens at 9 am got there at 9:05 and the parking lot was already packed. Wish I had took pictures of my food but it's too late. I ordered corned beef hash and scrambled eggs w/ a side of grits and toast. Total was around $14. Food was decent once I added some more salt n pepper. read more

Food, & service, are amazing! Best grits I've ever had at a restaurant. Visiting Charlotte for the weekend and I would highly recommend!

Wonderful service. Food tasted great and came out timely. Building is a bit dated but they do a good job at making it cute. Would recommend and return read more

Came here a weekday morning for breakfast before a doctors appointment in South Park. The place inside is spacious with plenty of seating. I sat at the bar top and the inside wasn't busy at all. Ordered their bacon and eggs and came out in good timing. The food worked out and I was good and done in no time. Thank you! read more

Our favorite thing here that we had was the Belgian waffle. The food was honestly not bad at all, but the hashbrowns were way too overcooked on the bottom and were very hard. The gravy was also OK and the food could have used some more seasoning overall. The biscuit was yummy though. read more

This was my first visit to Cafe South in Charlotte. The restaurant looks like it was an old Bob Evan's. I liked the country vibes. I ordered the Hobo breakfast and a biscuit. The gravy and overall flavors were delicious! The hash browns were a little overcooked and there was a bit of egg shell in my eggs. I would still recommend the Hobo breakfast though simply because of the gravy. So good! Our server was really nice and always made sure we had plenty of drinks. Overall great experience. read more

I had eaten her several times. The food is always good and the service is always excellent.

Food was fantastic and very well put together! The service was out of this world!! Definitely will be back when in Charlotte

Every time I come to Charlotte I have to stop at Cafe South. This time I had breakfast. The bacon was crispy and my eggs were exactly how I ordered them. My only complaint is that my grits were a little runny. The service is always wonderful which is a part of the reason I keep coming back. read more

The food; eggs cooked perfect, liver mush was nasty either cooked earlier this morning or some other day. Maybe the liver mush was some cheap brand. Food came out quick our server was ok. The place was normal Sunday morning people chatting and laughing. It is also crazy on the menu if you only want 1 egg then you save 10 cent however if you had a egg it is almost $2. Say your money and go to Waffle House read more

Good southern breakfast! My husband and I got the Hobo Breakfast. The gravy was amazing and the biscuit was so fluffy! However, the hash browns were sub par. They were kind of chewy, and I would not get them again. The dish also appeared to have a slice of Kraft American Cheese on it, which wasn't what I would have chosen. The chocolate chip pancakes (our friend ordered that) were delicious!! Our server was so nice! It also kinda felt like you were in a southern restaurant in the 1990s, but it was clean! read more

I ordered two country fried steak, hash brown, and eggs. This will be the first and last time coming here the portion was good but the food did not have any taste and the gravy was watery. What tick me off was the honey in the to go container taste like it was expired and I keep honey natural and store bought. read more

Every once in a while I'm in the area early in the morning and I have a lot of time to kill. Twice this week I was able to stop in to Cafe South for breakfast. The food and service were great! The restaurant itself was very nice and clean. read more

I ordered takeout from Cafe South while I was on the go. Accidentally ordered a Country 'Style' Steak instead of a Country 'Fried' Steak, but was pleasantly surprised by the bed of fresh steamed rice that my steak sat on top when I opened the container. The cube steak was perfectly cooked and the gravy complimented everything. The mash potatoes and mac n cheese filled me up to the brim and the cornbread finished me off. Placing a phone order was quick and easy, and my food was waiting for me on arrival 10 minutes later. The photo doesn't lie, I devoured this meal in the comfort of my own car, I hope no one was watching because it was gone in a minute. read more

Probably more of our waitress experience than anything. I feel like some of the staff are nice but our waitress was sub par. Forgot our bread and biscuits and napkins and syrup. We essentially had to remind her of everything our meal came with and ask for it. Felt super weird to be honest. read more

Back to Cafe South after eight years and it's still a good experience. This building used to be a Bob Evans and they've changed none of the structure. I think the dentist poster by the hostess stand might be exactly the same! We arrived at 11:30 on a sunny Saturday morning and the hostess took my name and promised a 10 minute wait. My name was called about 10 minutes later and we were brought to a comfortable though low booth. Seats in good condition and the table was clean, loaded up with condiments including creamer, butter, salt and pepper, ketchup, jams and Texas Pete https://www.yelp.com/biz/tw-garner-food-company-winston-salem-2?hrid=RMwxhBuzuPzMQY06ZMG-mg. A moment later, our waitress stopped by for drink orders and we knew what we wanted. She brought coffee and kept it refilled during our meal, dropping off a check at some point. My wife got the French toast (hold the powdered sugar, please!) and enjoyed it. She said it was a little soft and could have been firmer. My ham and cheese omelet was served with toast. The hash browns also needed a bit more cooking though they were good. Drinks, two entrees and tip for $33. A bit spendy for breakfast but good service and a good meal. We enjoyed it and we'll be back. [Review 15419 overall, 923 of 2021, number 2969 in North Carolina.] read more

Fast service. Tonya was great! Food was hot/quick/good for breakfast. Next time I'm in Charlotte I'll be sure to stop in.

Good traditional breakfast food. Service is good and so is the food. The portions are also good and the restaurant is clean.

The food is pretty good I give it 4 stars definitely the home cooked meal vibe. But, why I gave it 5 stars if because of the service. Mrs. Tonya and Shay are amazing even the hostess lady. We keep coming back because they treat us like family. read more

when I first moved down here, I was excited and I came to this place because it was highly recommended. The first time I came, the service was great and the food was great. The second time I came, the eggs were absolutely horrible. The third time I came I called ahead first and asked what time breakfast ended and I was told to be there by 11:30. I get there at 11:28 waited in line and made it up to the front by 1129 and they not serving breakfast anymore. I told her I spoke to someone on the phone who told me to get there by 11:30 and they will serve me breakfast and of course they never know who I spoke to but of course they stick together. Also, (prev time) I simply wanted to order off of the kids menu because I was not that hungry. They let me order off of the kids menu, but then me adult prices. They explained to me that the manager would not allow that because I'm an adult. My complaint was why did anyone tell me this in the beginning? I would've just ordered the adult size meal instead of the . That wouldn't have been an issue. By the way, I am not a disrespectful person at all. I get along with everyone, but I will say the the past few times have been disheartening. read more

I always thoroughly enjoy myself when I come here. There's never a wait, the staff is super friendly, and there more than enough on the menu to choose from. The vibes are really old school! The down home country feeling. When checking out they have some delicious desserts you can purchase on your way out! Love it here!!! read more

My Yelp! buddy, Peter M. has been here, rated it well and said the best description of this hard to find cafe: not really shout worthy. Yes, but a solid, Greek-run coffee shop/diner where you can get well satisfied. What is it with Greeks and restaurants? I don't know, but when you see that combo, go eat there. Specials and superb selection of options to solid dishes. Had the hobo breakfast which was a MOUND of hash brown potatoes topped with everything: onions, bell peppers, cheese, bacon and further topped with sausage gravy. Oh, heaven, I am on my way! And...if this hobo breakfast is not enough, you also get toast or biscuits. I suffered my way through it as best I could, but am embarrassed to admit that I could not finish it all. Sad to acknowledge the waste. Did, though, get hugs from my wife and the waitress. 28 veggies and sides are offered. Wow! Like those three or four veggie plates? 3 = $8.95. 4 = $10.95. You actually can get stuffed with healthy things and like them. Dinners and lunches look great and are seafood, fish, all the other meats, pastas, burgers and pitas, like gyros, chicken and veggie varieties. How they keep the kitchen stocked to offer so many items is surely a Greek restaurateurs secret. Quite an experience. Use your GPS to find the intricate routing to find their parking lot. Yum-o! read more

This place doesn't take reservations and requires everyone in your party before they sit you down. We were seated within 20 minutes of everyone in our party of 9 showed up. Visited over the weekend and This place gets busy real quick. Our server Oscar was friendly and patient. Food was very delicious and their mimosa was real strong which is a plus point. Overall service and food was great. Will plan on coming back soon. Overall 4/5 read more

It's amazing how one person can ruin an experience. Came on day 1 and rolled in. Service was fine. Food was average but did its purpose. Day 2 came in with another group but this time the receptionist refused to seat us until everyone in a large party was present. We are in a group at the surrounding hotel so there is always going to be one straggler. But can't sit. Can't get coffee until everyone is present. It would be one thing if the place was as busy but there are open tables everywhere. read more

Super impressed by this place. It gave off a small town feel with the way the restaurant layout was as well as the menu. The food was delicious and plentiful. Our portions were enormous. Nobody in our party was able to eat their entire meal. The waitress was impressive as well. She came and took our order quickly, checked up on us frequently without feeling too often, and memorized our order perfectly. Is this fine dining? No. But it is reasonably priced food that is well prepared. Can't wait to try their breakfast because from the plates I saw it looked even better than the lunch food. read more

Southern food, but not southern flavor. We came for lunch on a Friday. Service was great!! Restaurant was clean. Food is southern, but had very little flavor. We did have the fried green tomatoes for an appetizer, they were the best thing we ate! read more

The ambiance is so nice!! I loved sitting in the colorful dining room. The food was delish (perfection!), we got the French toast, eggs, bacon, hash browns, grits, and biscuit, and it was all amazing. Didn't even hurt my stomach which breakfast food often does!! But what really made this dining experience so enjoyable was the service. Our waitress, Ava, was super fast, answered all our questions, and was super nice too!!! She made it feel like we were regulars :) Thank you Cafe South!! read more

I walked in, was seated and served immediately. The food came out fresh and very tasty. Tanya was my waitress and she kept the coffee coming with every bite. I will definitely be back for lunch or dinner to try the other offerings. Tanya said " it would have to be lunch because they close at 3pm". read more

Read some qood reviews about this place so decided to give them a try for our normal Sunday Brunch. Church let out in Davidson around 10:30am and what should have only been a 30 minutes drive down took a bit over and hour because of a traffic accident at the junction with 1-277 which had all lanes blocked except for one. Six lanes going to one slows things down considerably. We got to the the restaurant about 11:45 and were promptly seated. First impression was "this is a Bob Evans". Asked the hostess and she confirmed that this restaurant had been previously a Bob Evans When the new owners bought it, they did not do much to change the feel. Looked over the menu and we both ordered the Meatloaf plate. In my case I got a side house salad and fried okra and for the Meatloaf, tomato sauce on top. My wife ordered her Meatloaf with Brown Gravy and for sides, fried Okra and Mashed Potatoes. They messed up here order and brougnt Mac and Cheese but promptly corrected it. My wife liked her Meatloaf but I found mine to a bit bland. Sides were very good however. Portions are large and service is very good. It's at Exit 3 on I-77 just to the east of the intersection. Good place for the traveler because it's north of the Carowinds Congestion but before you get to the Charlotte traffic snarl. read more

We came here for some southern food and was extremely disappointed. Everything except the buffalo popcorn chicken was very bland and flavorless. It tasted unseasoned. Service was a bit slow even though the place wasn't busy that day and we waited for at least 20 mins just to get the check. Not worth checking out. read more

I'll start by saying the food was very good. Our waitress was sweet and attentive....that's the good part. My husband and I sat there 45 minutes before we received our food. Mine was lukewarm. The people across from us, that came in after us, got their food and offered us toast because we were sitting there with no food and no one came and apologized for our wait. When the food came the couple across from us clapped. I asked for the manager and he gave a half-hearted apology and excuses. I asked him to comp my lukewarm breakfast because I wasn't going to send it back to the kitchen. He said no at first and then changed his mind probably because of the look he was getting from me. The only reason I didn't leave was because I was hunger. That being said I would go back the next time I'm in Charlotte and hope this was a one off situation. Here's to hoping... read more

The service was great the employees were very nice, and the food was delicious it was way better than I expected. Highly recommend.

Too expensive for no reason. The up charge fees are ridiculous. They lady at the pick up window is not a friendly person when asking why the meal is so expensive just for a breakfast special read more

Service was awesome! Our waitress was amazing. There were 7 of us in our party and she memorized our entire order even with modifications. She was very attentive and made sure we were okay through our whole breakfast. I had the country fried steak, eggs and bacon. Steak was good and a decent size. I probably could have eaten the 2 steak choice. I also tasted the biscuits and gravy; and also the pancake. Everything was delicious. Definitely recommend this place, especially for the great service. read more
