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.

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.

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!

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.

The food is phenomenal, the ambiance friendly and my server Shae was AMAZING!!!! The fried green tomatoes were fried to perfection and juicy, the sweet tea was just right and the fried chicken was really great! They open at 6:30am and close by 3pm. Give them a try and tell them I sent you!

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.
