    Famous French Toast
    Pamela P.

    Always enjoy a weekend brunch at Famous Toastery! Service is always friendly and overall vibe is enjoyable!

    I would have had to pay $4 extra for bacon.

    I was irritated the first time I left this review but cooler heads prevail. I was primarily irritated by the $6 Orange Juice (x2) and the service. I still think the OJ is absurd but I have been in here a few times since and the staff is very friendly and efficient. As far as the first visit goes, it was toward end of rush when the place was emptying out and people get tired. It's all good. The vibe here is also pretty cool. Famous Toastery isn't the best breakfast place I have ever eaten at but it's definitely above average and a solid choice (minus the OJ).

    The famous toastery is the perfect place to get breakfast. The food is great, with a variety of different foods from cinnamon rolls to pancakes to breakfast burritos. The place itself is great, the town of Davidson is beautiful with a wonderful brick downtown area, and the restaurant represents this, with a casual but pretty environment. It's also a very friendly place where essentially everyone there is very nice. The service is great, all the waiters and waitresses are very kind and make great conversation. It's very popular and fills up if you get there after 9 or 10, but overall just a great place to get breakfast.

    Five stars for the managment, kitchen staff, and great food that saved my wedding! I was supposed to get married in Asheville on September 28th but Mother Nature had other plans. Due to what can only be described as a series of miracles, we were able to leave the home we were staying in and the western part of the state. Feeling lucky, grateful and very humbled by the devastation witnessed, we decided to continue with our plans to tie the knot. My Dad arrived at opening on Sunday September 29th and shared our story with Brent. Brent immediately jumped into action creating a menu of sandwiches and sides to feed our guests. The food was absolutely delicious. While I imagine it wasn't easy for the staff to pull this together on a weekend morning with such short notice, I am so appreciative of their kindness and generosity. Thank you, Famous Toastery Davidson Team.

    The service was excellent! Our server came to check on us in just the right amount of times. Cute place! And the food was just perfect! We will definitely return during our stay here. We were surprised that when we arrived at 8 am, we were the only ones there! While we were there a few other people arrived.

    Good solid brunch chain in Charlotte. Everyone serves every table and they all share the tips. Food was very good. We had the stuffed French toast and breakfast quesadilla. Both had good flavor and were very good. When we told the waitress we were new to the area she notified the manager and he stopped by to welcome us to the area.

    The place is charming and with two outdoor seating areas, its spacious.

    The good: food is fast and flavorful. It was a bit salty for me, but overall well cooked and presented. The staff! You can ask anyone for help. That's a big plus when the place is busy. Nice bathrooms and the out back seating is lovely. We had breakfast, but you can also order lunch all day, too. The bad: the salt factor might be of concern for those with high blood pressure. Maybe ask for no added salt. The ugly: nothing. It's a real cafe with a great people who take pride in making a great breakfast or lunch.

    First time ever eating at this restaurant. I've seen several locations over the past year but finally stopped to eat lunch ! Wow what a mistake waiting so long to eat here . It was delicious! I tried the build your own omelette. Added everything you could to it ... fully loaded ! My hubs had the stuffed French toast with strawberries. We shared both ! Both were fantastic! Service was spot on and very attentive wait staff made for a perfect meal. Apparently the Davidson location was one of the first . Our server had been there over 6 years. That tells me it's a great place to work as well as eat ! Two thumbs way up!

    I attended a wedding that was catered by Catering by Tracy and the food was definitely decent. One…read morething that was incredibly frustrating was the pineapple on the fruit kabobs still had the outside skin on it making it just about impossible to eat during the cocktail hour. Overall the fruit was amazing and fresh though, just a bit impractical with the pineapple. Now the biggest reason I was unhappy with their catering was because when the dessert was served, they cut very few pieces and had them on the table for guests to grab. That's great, but those pieces were quickly gone and nobody was serving more pieces and the caterer didn't leave the little dessert plates on the table for people to serve themselves either. Secondly, while we sat down for dessert, the photographers yelled out that they wanted everyone on the dance floor for a quick group photo. After the photo was taken, I get back to my table and me and my husbands dessert is gone. The caterer was clearing all the tables as we took that photo which was so annoying since it took me forever to get a plate of dessert to begin with! Anyway, the foods not bad, just the way a few things were done was definitely the most memorable part of the wedding for me unfortunately.

    Inquired at Catering for my upcoming wedding. When whoever handles the orders called me (I missed…read morethe call due to work and called back to see who it was) they were very rude and I am glad that I did not book with them.

We shopped around through about 5 different well-known caterers in Charlotte, NC. None of the caterer's scored very high on our score card (and yeah, that's right we made a score card...wedding's are expensive and we weren't going to chance something as important as food). Then...our wedding planner pointed us to one final option. Mellorina's Catering Llc. Talk about an unexpected location. But I will testify Mel is a true pearl hidden in the depths of the ocean. Her professionalism, her prices, her food...OMG HER FOOD!!!!! I was born and raised in the south and I have not tasted chicken that tasted that good in my entire life. She is so flexible too. She made us a curry tofu dish, she made us a carribbean rice & peas, she made the most amazing mac & cheese, delectable corn bread, flawless dinner rolls. This woman's food is serious, she should be a 5 star chef, with her own restaurant, cooking books, the whole nine yards. All in all, if you want to know what caterer to use for your event in Charlotte, NC (or any surrounding areas) please stop wasting your time, stop searching, and find Mel. Find her catering company, and do whatever you have to do to get her on the books. There were many things that fell into place to make our wedding a dream come true. But one of the main reasons is because of the food & service from : Mellorina's Catering Llc You don't believe me, give the food a taste and see for yourself

We were literally in the middle of getting ready for her wedding rehearsal when my sister got a call from her venue, The Magnolia Room. The venue was calling to say that there were no bartenders, no staff, and possibly not even any catering because the vendors told them they weren't coming -- they hadn't been paid. You can imagine the shock, panic, and heartbreak my sister felt getting this news the day before her wedding, while she's trying to enjoy what should have been a joyful moment with her family and friends. She checked her email and found a message from the caterer where he casually said that he would "no longer be able to take care of the wedding tomorrow due to health issues." That was it. No phone call, no warning -- just an email less than 24 hours before the wedding. He even sent her a list of the vendors he had never paid, despite the fact that my sister had paid him months ago, in full. Because of his complete failure and dishonesty, my sister had to come out of pocket again -- at the last minute -- to pay for services she had already paid him for. I watched her, exhausted, in tears, calling around to salvage her own wedding because of this man's utter lack of responsibility. My sister still has not received her money despite his promise of refunding her within 14 days after the wedding. I wouldn't wish this experience on anyone. It was heartbreaking to watch my sister go through this -- the stress, the expense, the betrayal -- all because someone took her money, made empty promises, and walked away. Do not trust this company with your event.

Less than 24 hours before my wedding, Alexander Cruz canceled on us after having been paid months and even years in advance through multiple payments. He claimed it was due to "health issues," but that doesn't excuse the fact that he never paid any of the subcontractors -- no rental company, no staffing company, no bartenders. They all confirmed to us that he never paid them, even though we had already paid him in full. He left us scrambling at the last minute, nearly ruining our wedding. His lack of professionalism and accountability is shocking. One week after our wedding, he still has not refunded us a single cent. To make matters worse, his supposed coordinator, Gina Ricca, completely ghosted us. When things fell apart, she simply disappeared without offering any help, apology, or explanation. At this point, it's clear this is not just poor business practice -- it's dishonest and borderline fraudulent behavior. He took our money, failed to deliver the service, failed to pay his subcontractors, and is now avoiding responsibility. He is a scammer, and I would strongly warn anyone against trusting him with your money or your event.
