Skyland Family - Charlotte

It was ok. Make sure whoever is taking your order is really paying attention. Ours seemed to be preoccupied with other things the entire time and walk off mid sentence ???????????. She forgot my blue berries for my waffle....I still want them..

We found this place inadvertently as the breakfast was bad in our hotel, we went to explore. it is one of those places where they enter, sit down and feel at once. I will not say that this is fine eating, but the portions were exceptional for the price and the food quality was good. Beyond that, we had the pleasure of meeting our server tabatha that made it even better. Finally, eating was prepared exceptionally fast and on our table in just a few minutes of ordering. I would definitely recommend this place.

About two weeks ago, I visited Skyland with my cousin and I had a disappointing encounter with the owner, Jimmy. I have been a patron of this establishment for almost 20 years. We're Charlotte Natives, so others in my family have been customers of Skyland for years as well. But, I doubt very seriously that I will return. During my last visit, I noticed there were a few gentleman dining in who appeared to be notable in the Greek community. Several customers entering greeted them and their interactions were extremely jovial. I enjoyed observing the comradery between them.After our meal we went to the register to pay for our food. Jimmy was there. The waitress, who was assisting the gentlemen I mentioned earlier, approached Jimmy with a $50 bill. Although the waitress and Jimmy spoke Greek, I was able to gather the context of the conversation. One of the men at the table wanted to pay for our meal. Jimmy became aggressive and refused to take it. After the waitress retreated, one of the men approached with the money in his hand and tried to give it to Jimmy. Again, the two were speaking Greek, but the customer's intention was clear. He stressed that he wanted to pay for our meal. Jimmy, at this point, already had my debit card- and his communication with the customer was stern and forceful. He refused to take the money, processed my debit transaction and threw my card on the counter. I looked at the customer and thanked him for his kindness. He appeared to be defeated and slightly downtrodden after talking to Jimmy and he walked away.I’m not confrontational and will usually allow things to play out, but I couldn’t help but wonder if Jimmy’s contemptuous behavior was that way because I’m a little Black girl. I didn’t ask Jimmy for clarity on his behavior, but his insolence and abrasiveness left a bad taste in my mouth.

Landmark diner where you can get breakfast any time of day. Attentive service, delicious food. Marinated steak strips were awesome. Decor is in need of updating, but the food is comfort food at its homemade best

Avoid this place. Thus is the second time here and I can't find a single redeeming quality that keeps them in business.The food quality and execution has been bad both times we've been here. I ordered a Greek omelet and it was basically a fried scrambled egg disk. no feta, hardly any tomato, and there were potatoes in it for some reason. The coffee is awful and weak, their syrup is noticeably cheap and weird tasting.... the hash browns were under cooked last time I was here my pancakes came to the table twice still raw in the middle. it isn't even that cheap. Run, don't walk, away from here.
