“ Very cute and nostalgic place. Not many dinners left, so it is very nice to eat in one. Menu has many options. I wish they had mozzarella sticks as an appetizer. Lol. It is very clean, staff is friendly and professional. Great place to go for a walk and shop after a meal. ”

“ I had the "smash burger special" for lunch the other day. The burger was delicious. The patties had the perfect amount of char on them and the waffle fries were fresh, hot and crisp. Price was very reasonable and service was great! And the new owners have cleaned up what used to be the EpicrimeCenter. I had no fear of being randomly felled by a stray bullet! ”

“ Party of three leaving oh, so very happy. Love the music, lighting, and vibe. Charlotte born. Mississippi raised. I wasn't sure if a diner would be able to pull off shrimp and grits. They were phenomenal! My daughter asked for chicken noodle soup, a hot dog, and a pickle . She was toe tapping all through dinner and bobbing her head to the music. My husband had the firecracker chicken sandwich and really enjoyed it. He said it was sweet rather than fiery but super appetizing. The service was fantastic, too! ”

“ We were walking around uptown and stumbled into Redeye Diner. It looks like an old school diner and they even have a jukebox, which was cool. Our servers were so nice and attentive without being overbearing. This diner has your typically greasy breakfast food but it was so good. I would come here again for breakfast! ”

“ Breakfast. I was staying next door at AC Hotel, their breakfast was lacking. Glad I walked over. I had the meat lovers omelette, excellent. Side of bacon and tomatoes. Coke products, thank goodness. ”

“ We were in Charlotte to see a comedian and arrived an hour early. We took a walk around uptown to find a snack. We stumbled upon Red Eye Diner, which didn't look busy and we figured they could get us in and out quickly. The ambiance is what you would expect from a diner. Dowop pictures on the wall and a big laminated menu with lots of options including breakfast all day. I wasn't hungry, but there is always room for dessert. I got the banana pudding with vanilla wafers and whipped cream on top. It was just ok. The pudding wasn't as thick and I typically like, but all and all it was good enough for my snack. My family was much hungrier and got chicken and waffles and added Mac and cheese. It's the eggy baked kind of Mac and cheese. The waffle was excellent and the fried chicken wings were fresh, crisp, and well spiced. Our bill was affordable and the service was great! I will add that when we left and got to the theatre my iPhone dinged me that I left my AirPods. I called the dinner and they immediately answered and looked but didn't see them. I went into the "find my" app and realized they fell out in my car and were showing in the parking deck. (I found them after the show and slid next to my seat ) I would return to Red Eye Diner again. ”
