Ruby Sunshine Ballantyne - Cinnamon Swirl Pancakes, Shrimp and Grits, Breakfast Potatoes, Bacon, Bananas Foster French Toast - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Not sure why there are so many bad reviews, but our experience was excellent--no complaints. We went at 10 a.m. on a Saturday. The restaurant was busy, but there was no wait, and we were seated immediately. Our server, Sada, was attentive and took our order within five minutes. The food arrived within ten minutes and was really good. I say "really good" instead of "great" because I've visited the original locations in New Orleans (Ruby Slipper), and you just can't beat food in NOLA. We ordered the same dishes we had there to make a fair comparison. I had the catfish and grits with a side of one cinnamon swirl pancake (a perfect combination) and iced coffee. My wife had the avocado toast--she said it tasted the same and loved that they cut the toast into four pieces here. My food tasted almost identical. I think the gravy here didn't have tasso and was a bit less seasoned (which isn't a bad thing, since dishes in New Orleans can sometimes be overseasoned). The pancake made me smile, and the iced coffee was good too. I'm happy to know I can get this meal anytime I'm in Charlotte. Ruby Sunshine is definitely at the top of my list for breakfast/brunch. read more

The plates are on the smaller side, but the experience had some real highlights. There was a small hiccup with my eggs, they forgot to make them over easy, but the staff quickly fixed it without any issue, which I appreciated. The standout for me was the blueberry lavender mimosa, easily the best mimosa I've had. It was a generous pour, too, which made it even better. As for the food, the fried green tomatoes were a bit disappointing, coming out rubbery instead of crisp. On the other hand, the biscuit was absolutely amazing, perfectly done and definitely worth ordering. Overall, a mix of hits and misses, but a few items really shined. read more

So the other day I took my mother out to brunch at Ruby Sunshine! First time ever going. The inside was nice with lots of booths lining the wall and sturdy table and chairs with padding all throughout! Outside there was a large patio for nice weather dinning. I noticed a lot of benches outside as well so I'm guessing that on the weekends this place is pretty busy. We did end up coming later in their day as they close at 2 during the week so we got a table no problem. I started off wanting to try their sweet tea which is great! Mom ordered the ruby mimosa but it was not what we were hoping for. It was very sour and tasted more like grapefruit juice instead of OJ. To her credit our server was very polite and offered to change it out. Mom got the Peach Bellini instead and was very happy with it! By the end of the meal and the drink mom was feeling very happy! We put an order of the Beignets in right away with our drink orders. You get 6 hot and fluffy beignets covered in powdered sugar! For 2-3 people this is a fine app. If you have more people in your party better get a second order! I ordered the sweet heat chicken and french toast bites! This was kind of their play on the chicken n waffle and I gotta say I am here for it all day! I received two large pieces of chicken in a crunchy yet spicy batter! The plate was loaded with french toast bites! I have to say at least 3 pieces of french toast that was cut up into bites. It also came with fresh cut strawberries! The strawberries really helped cool down the spices in the chicken. Also, they brought out the syrup already warmed up. I love that! A few of the bites were a little crunchy so maybe they were a tad over fried but really not anything to be sad about and I ate every one of them! Mom ordered the breakfast taco's with the applewood bacon added in. As you can see from the photo's each of her grilled tortillas' were overflowing with goodness. She only finished two of them and the third became a snack later on. I felt the side of breakfast potatoes was a little over done but mom loves the crunchy bites so she was in heaven. Since I do these reviews I like to try as much as I can without having to be rolled out of the restaurant. So I had to try their buttermilk biscuit and pancakes. OMG were they good! They have a "sweet" butter they serve with it and it was so good. I wish I had room to order a whole stack of those pancakes! The biscuit was thick but not dense! It was so light and fluffy! The Hot Honey chicken biscuit is on my mind for my next visit. If you're looking for a new spot with amazing staff and food then please give this place a try. read more

My wife and I stayed in the Ballentyne area of Charlotte and found Ruby Sunshine near our hotel. We were greeted warmly and seated immediately. Since if is Mother's Day, they gave my wife a carnation flower. I ordered the Southern Breakfast, and it was delicious. You will not leave Ruby Sunshine hungry! read more

Had such a good experience at Ruby Sunshine that we literally came back a second time today just to grab another iced coffee From the second we had walked in...even earlier they remembered us, Laura the hostess was warm, welcoming, and peak service energy. Then Nicci our waitress took great care of us...super sweet, attentive, and on top of everything (and her beautiful plug earrings were such a vibe ). Drinks stayed full and she checked on us just the right amount. We had the beignets earlier (because desserts spelled backwards is stressed and we're not doing that in the morning ) warm, fluffy, perfectly sweet. The tater tots were crispy golden perfection. And that iced coffee topped with whipped cream? So good we had to run it back the same day. Smooth, refreshing, extra indulgent with that whip on top.....Also the place was spotless. Not a dirty table, not even a tiny straw wrapper on the floor. You can tell they take pride in their space. Amazing service, incredible food, super clean environment. read more

When I arrived, I was happy to see that there was easy parking in a huge parking lot set aside for the restaurant. Upon walking in we were seated, the waitress was very helpful about recommended menu items. My sons ordered off the kids menu and we're happy to see you pancakes and French toast as options. My boys thoroughly enjoyed their breakfast, and I ordered the loaded potatoes and they were the best I have ever had. The beignets were delicious too, I can't wait to come back and bring some of my friends also. Thanks Ruby sunshine for a great mother Son day out! read more

Ruby Sunshine Ballantyne - Loaded potatoes, beignets, and vanilla coffee - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

I absolutely love Ruby Sunshine's fried chicken so I was so excited to bring my husband to try the best fried chicken ever! Imagine my disappointment when it came out looking burnt. It took quite a bit of time to get our server's attention (the bartender) and she brought another piece that looked the same. She said that the kitchen said this is how it looks because of the oil. I then told her I actually came for the fried chicken and it normally does not look or taste burnt. The third time it came out looking golden brown not burnt. They did not give me a fresh biscuit so my biscuit was cold by the time I got my hot chicken and we never saw a manager. My husband had an eggs Benedict of some type but it was very overcooked, not runny at all. I love Ruby Sunshine so I will definitely give them another try but maybe not this location. read more

There's a reason this restaurant has a line out the door. The food is great! The hostess was so nice despite patrons being rude to her (be kind to your wait staff or go home) and the wait wasn't too bad. Highly recommend walking down to Pikes and going plant shopping while you wait. Our server was also very nice! We got the loaded tots to start which are so good we ate half before I got a picture. I got biscuits and gravy with fries, eggs, and bacon. My only complaint is the gravy tastes like it has a chicken base and I prefer it to be fully sausage based. Otherwise fantastic. My peach Bellini wasn't very peachy. Do expect to be here for over an hour due to the high influx of patrons but that's outside of the restaurants control. I'd definitely come back! read more

Ruby Sunshine Ballantyne - Loaded tots - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

We came here with mediocre expectations. Our goal was a decent brunch and a mimosa. What we got would be comparable if Temu had breakfast options. It took forever to place our order. I ordered the shrimp and grits, absolutely awful. The green peppers were still raw and crunchy. Grits were lumpy and gritty. I only ate the shrimp and left the rest. I get nervous about having food returned. The BF said his chicken sandwich was good, just a basic sandwich. The service, trash. Our server appeared to be the bartender and our server at the same time. With that being said, it was not very busy in there at all and there were 2 other servers. I believe there were a total of 6 tables among the 2 servers and the bartender. She forgot to bring our drinks, brought us our tab and I gently stated that we didnt receive our drinks. We weren't asked if we needed anything else before the tab was given to us. At that point, we had already finished eating but never received our drinks. She quickly threw the drinks together and quickly gave them to us. Didn't ask if we needed boxes or coffee, just more of a "here ya go, bye". After getting our drinks, we waited another 15 mins or so before I asked to pay our tab, the server never returned for us to close out. I had to ask a different server if we could please pay our bill. Between the trash service and disgusting food, we will definitely not be back. read more

My first visit was on a weekday morning to meet up with friends who were visiting from out of town. The restaurant is big and it was empty except for a couple of tables. Our table shared the loaded tots. So good! I chose to try the shrimp and grits and was pleasantly surprised to find that it was very flavorful and I greatly enjoyed it. The service was good and the ambiance was casual. I'm open to visiting again to try other options but I wouldn't say that it's made my list of top choices for breakfast/brunch. read more

Made reservations for a party of 9 about 3 hours early before our intended time on a Sunday afternoon for brunch. I called ahead to ensure that we will be able to be seated. We did still have about a 40 min wait once arriving. We were told that was to give their kitchen some time to accommodate us. The food overall was pretty tasty, had pretty good flavor and came out nice and hot. The mimosa flight was more flavorful than the traditional mimosa, which was flat. Our server was nice and checked in pretty frequently. This is our first time with this location, but we would return again. We do love brunch food. read more

We went there for a brunch on Sunday morning. Our arrival was lesson stellar. Didn't really feel warm and welcoming. We set our table for at least 10 minutes before someone came to wait on us as it appeared there was some confusion about whose table it was to take care of. Once our server did arrive, her name was Alex and she was fabulous. It was her third day on the job and she stayed on top of everything. She did not forget anything we did not feel like she ever forgot us. She brought everything we asked for we did not have to ask for it multiple times and we did give her a review to the floor manager. The ambience was not what I expected. I expected a little more uphill than what I found there. It kind of reminded me of a Chili's or an Applebee's. But it was clean and the decor was nice. It looked like they probably did have a large room to take large parties separate from the main dining area. As expected, it was the New Orleans Orleans team restaurant with decor that matched. We started our day off with coffee and beignets and the loaded tots. The beignets were light and fluffy and warm. They were delicious. The loaded tops was a large portion. I ended up bringing half of it home with me. It was savory. The tots were crispy. The pork on top with flavorful was not dry at all the gravy was a little salty, but not too salty. But overall, they were delicious. I also got a side order of the Applewood smoked bacon. That was delicious. It was cooked perfectly not too crispy done correctly. My husband ordered the Peacemaker which was a combination of two of the eggs Benedict one was the Chicken Saint Charles and the second was Eggs Cochon. He said his favorite was the Chicken Saint Charles. It was crispy. It was full of flavor. The biscuit that the chicken was on was light and fluffy, and the egg on the top was perfect. The Eggs Cochon had pork on the top. Again with a perfectly cooked egg. The meat was savory. It was not dry at all, and the portions were huge. The coffee which I must admit I think I had 3 cups of while we were there was great if you like strong coffee. I would actually give this place a 3 1/2 star rating. It is nice for a laid-back leisurely brunch. read more

I was looking fur somewhere to try for brunch and ended up at this place. I've wanted to check them out since they opened, but the wait has always been long. Today, I was able to get in right away. We started with the beignets. They were not good at all and smaller than any I e ever seen. Tasted like a dough ball with powdered sugar and no flavor. Pancakes and bacon were perfect, created an omelette with chicken sausage good as well. The chicken biscuit was just okay. Nothing special. Check them out though and see what you think. read more

Ruby Sunshine Ballantyne - This is all that was left after breakfast - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Came here for Veterans Day brunch to check out a new place with a friend. The menu looked really good and there was a good selection to choose from. I love that they have a peacemaker Benedict option where you can choose between two options! I went with that while my friend went for the chicken biscuit. The chicken was very juicy! I was a little bit disappointed that my eggs benedict was pretty much a medium/hard boiled egg. I assumed there'd be a side with the benedict but didn't realize that's not the case!We were also excited to get the French toast bites, and were told that the entree version included strawberries which sold us to upgrade although unfortunately it didn't come out with any. The bites themselves were pretty good though. The staff seemed a little understaffed and the wait times were a little long in terms of getting seated, getting drinks, taking our orders, and getting food out. read more

I really enjoyed this location. I celebrated my birthday brunch here with 15 guest and everyone truly enjoyed it even my nephews. There truly was something for everyone on the menu. The breakfast was phenomenal. I had their infamous stuffed French toast along with eggs and potatoes. The manager went above and beyond to accommodate my party and as well as the waiters. I definitely highly recommend this location if you're looking for a venue to host a party since the manager Kevin goes above and beyond to make sure that your needs are met. read more

Out of towners looking for a good breakfast. What a disappointment! Interior was I would expect for a breakfast spot. Service was slooooow! Ordered breakfast burritos and wanted pork sausage. But they were out of pork sausage. Added chicken sausage instead. Tacos showed up w house potatoes. The potatoes were soft and cold. Inedible. The tortillas were terrible. Dry and hard. The outer edges were so hard and dry they cracked and fell apart. Cant believe they would serve tortillas like that. 3 others had selection and all unimpressed. I did not return my food because our wait was so long I didnt want to wait again. I do not recommend this place for breakfast! There are many much better places close by. read more

Ruby Sunshine Ballantyne - Breakfast tacos w HARD DRY tortillas. Cold potatoes - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

I was not a fan of this restaurant in the least. I gave it a 2 instead of a 1 because our waitress was phenomenal. The food however was awful. I got a chicken sausage and egg biscuit sandwich and it wasn't edible. The chicken sausage tasted like a frozen patty - it was thick and hard and rubbery-like and the eggs were runny. The biscuit was pretty okay; that's the only part I was able to complete. Tots were just ok. Our table got the beignets and it wasn't bad but definitely more biscuit like. My latte was nice however! This place was your typical chain, nothing special. Parking was free and the staff were nice - service takes forever though. I wouldn't come back unfortunately. read more

This is the second time we have been very disappointed!! read more

We have come back here twice in 1 week! This is now my favorite lunch/brunch spot. I'm a huge fan of bloody Maria's. And they have plenty of tequila options here!! The spiked iced coffee drinks are excellent, and very strong. Get the beignets. Powdered sugar goodness. I'm not exaggerating this enough. They are perfect, not too filling either. For entrees I ordered the eggs cochon. perfectly poached eggs with hollandaise sauce rested on a buttery biscuit. The pulled pork was break apart with your fork tender. The St. Charles Chicken Benny was just as great. The fried chicken was delicious. The inside was nicely decorated & service was great! Thanks to our server Carter. Thank you Ruby Sunshine! read more

After a doctor's appointment, I decided to stop by Ruby Sunshine for some breakfast. When I walked in, there were only about three tables seated, so it wasn't crowded at all. I ordered fried green tomatoes and they were delicious. I also ordered the catfish & grits, but unfortunately, my experience was disappointing. My fish came out completely burnt it looked like the grease hadn't been changed in a while. To make matters worse, I had already waited over 20 minutes for my food. Even though I didn't complain, I told my son that it's fine, but I won't be returning to this location. On a brighter note, my son really enjoyed his honey hot chicken & biscuit, so at least he left happy. read more

Service was not good. Our waitress was not familiar with the menu, was extremely behind in delivering drinks and food. And I get if your busy but we came during a time where it was not packed. The spiked sweet tea was okay but had no tea flavor. The shrimp and grits were horrible. Cold grits, oily sauce and it was served with over cooked shrimp and an unremarkable biscuit. Not a fan of this location. The Southend location is preferred for service and food. read more

We wanted to go for brunch on the 4th of July but wanted to see if they would even be open/ if we would need a reservation and we could not get anyone on the phone all week long to ask, and social media wasn't helpful. We show up and they wouldn't seat us until our whole party was there but they weren't super busy. I ordered a decaf coffee and I didn't check on it so that's on me, but it didn't come out until the food came out, I didn't even want it at the point. And of course I was charged for it. When I ordered my food, the server asked if I wanted potatoes as my side, then mentioned I could get any side, so I figured it was included. When I received my bill I noticed I was charged extra for the potatoes which I only got because I was led to believe it was included. The food came out in adequate time. The restaurant itself wasn't super cutesy or trendy. The food tasted really great which was the redeeming quality. I got the sweet heat chicken with French toast bites. It was French toast bites, fresh strawberries and 2 huge pieces of fried chicken with a spicy sauce on top. It was unlike anything I've had before and was soooooo tasty. It came with a lot of food, too. I would get it again. The potatoes were really good too. They also already included tip on my bill, but then still asked if I wanted to tip. It was pricy, It ended up being around $30 for my meal, potatoes and a decaf coffee. read more

I love a menu full of breakfast food! I had a yummy breakfast. I asked for a deconstructed breakfast sandwich- basically I didn't want the bread so I asked for it all to be on a plate and they were happy to oblige. My friend liked her florentine omelet, too - hers was a veryhealthy portion. We shared an awesome mimosa flight: blueberry lavender, watermelon pomegranate, pineapple peach bellini, and blue orange juice that was $20. ....Overall, their prices are reasonable in my opinion, place was clean, service was good as well as friendly, and we enjoyed our food. read more

Ruby Sunshine Ballantyne - My mimosa flight: blueberry lavender, watermelon pomegranate, pineapple peach bellini, and blue orange juice! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

My family and I came here on Sunday and I was able to add myself to a waitlist when we were on the way. We arrived around 11:30 and checked in and were seated right away. We ordered our food and started with the beignets, which were warm and delicious! I ordered the migas which was also good. My husband got the breakfast sandwich, which i really enjoyed. The biscuit was so warm and fluffy and the potatoes that came on the side were nice and crispy. The only thing was that our server was also working behind the bar, so she only took our orders and brought out our drinks (after like 15 mins of waiting) and then we didn't see her again until we had to grab her attention for the check. Our drinks were never refilled, she never checked in on our table or anything. The coke we ordered tasted absolutely disgusting for some reason and we wanted to let her know but were never able to get her attention. We just asked to take it off our bill instead. Overall, the food was good for brunch, but the service is what was disappointing. read more

Went in on Saturday morning at 10am. It was surprisingly slow. We were greeted and seated right away. We sat for a little longer than typical awaiting a server. Then, someone came and said that the Internet had gone out and they would be with us as soon as it was back. They couldn't ring in or cash out orders. There was a missed opportunity to provide great customer service by offering us water and/or coffee while we waited, but no offer came. Finally, service was restored and server came for our drink orders. She asked if we'd ever been before and we told her no. She was perplexed, or disinterested, when I asked if the coffee was strong and said she wasn't sure. She didn't suggest any specialty drinks. She took our food orders, again, no suggestions, only made sure to tell me that each individual item for the BYO omelet costs. It's clearly printed on the menu. Tell me about your dishes or suggest your faves. Don't infer that I can't read or am daft. One of my guests and I ordered to go meals. She insisted on taking those orders after she took the main orders, but they came out, in the same bag though they were on separate tickets, when our eat in orders came out. I'd ordered a side of potatoes, which seemed to confuse the server when I first asked. As soon as she walked away and put our orders in, another server brought my side of potatoes. Umm, what? I sent them back because I wanted them with my meal. Food finally comes out almost 20 mines later and it's cold. Pancakes are cold, pretty sure it was the same potatoes, and one of my guests had ordered the French toast bites and they were cold. We had to send it back-not something I like to do, but I want hot food if it's supposed to be hot. The server who took our food back said she would tell them to rush it but she couldn't guarantee it. Blessedly, they rushed it. We were almost done with our food before we saw our server again. No refill offers or anything. I asked for a coffee top off with the server who'd helped with the cold food. When our server did come, she dropped off tickets. Told us she wasn't sure where to put the starters so she just put them on one and if we needed it changed, she would. She walked away and we sat and talked. A 1/2 hour later we guessed that our tickets were to be paid at the hostess stand. As we walked to the stand our server rushed over and says, "I'll take your payments-they don't have anything up there to take it." We said that we just assumed that we were supposed to because no one came for our payment. Her response was that she didn't see anyone's cards out so she didn't come over. If I ever choose to go to this location again, I'll surely request that she not be my server. I was so surprised by this service, or lack thereof. The food: fried green tomatoes were so thin and overcooked, could taste the potential Beignets-thin, we had to knock powdered sugar from one onto others Pancakes-sweet and so fluffy they were more cake like-perfect for someone who likes them that way-I wouldn't order again Bacon-Happy it was good Guests liked their food (shrimp omelette and French toast bites) but didn't get to eat grits because she'd requested butter and it didn't come and again, we didn't see the server forever. Husband liked his BYO Omelet. Definitely pricey for the amounts of food. I wasn't impressed when I visited a New Orleans location and I'm doubling down in that with this experience. Better service may have saved the visit, but bad service and subpar food =crossed off the list. 2 stars for Letti (she reordered our cold food and was very nice). read more

Date of visit: July 13, 2024 We were not feeling the breakfast at our hotel (if you could call it that) and this was a place that we could walk over to quickly before needing to head out for the day. This is a chain and we had apparently visited one of these locations in another state, though I did not recall that when my husband reminded me. Service was fun and friendly, and I really enjoyed my white chocolate pancakes and the bacon on the side was very close to how I like it (chewy only, please!). Would definitely visit another Ruby Sunshine in the future should our travels bring us as close to another outlet as we were to this one. read more

Went on a Friday morning, restaurant not crowded so the hostess directed us to the left side to pick a table, literally all unoccupied low top tables were still dirty with dishes. We didn't want to the high top seating so we go over to the right side and picked a table. No dishes on it but looked like it hadn't been wiped off so had to ask them to do that. Same person who sat is was our waiter. I ordered mimosa flight and my friend and I ordered the green tomatoes for an app and our separate entrees. All food came out at the same time instead of the app being first. Had to ask for syrup after a few min of seeing they weren't going to bring it. My mimosas didn't come out til almost at the end of the meal, that's after I had to remind them abt it. At least the food was delish and fresh but wasn't overly impressed with the service. read more
