Our Airbnb host recommended this spot for breakfast and we were definitely not disappointed! The staff were so awesome! My girlfriend ordered the Spanish omelet thinking it was a breakfast sandwich but without even having an issue, they made her the Spanish omelet as a sandwich which was super of them! My girlfriend can't stop talking about how good the food was and I really enjoyed my Toucan Breakfast, especially the biscuit which was the best I've ever had! Our waiter Ray was very nice and made sure we were satisfied, but honestly, we were beyond satisfied! Definitely will stop here again next time we are in the area!

We had a party of 6 for breakfast at 10:30 am on Sunday, 11/6/22. Very chill vibes. We were in athletic clothes; others came in their church clothes. There was no wait for a table, but it did take a while for our food to come out. When we ordered, they said there were only 5 biscuits left, but they were open until 3:00, so I’m not sure why they wouldn’t just make more. Luckily, we ordered in time to get the last biscuits.
Here’s what I tried:
- Veggie Omelet ($9.95): The omelet was really good! It came packed with veggies. I got it with a biscuit and home fries. The biscuit was buttered perfectly and was sooo delicious. The potatoes were seasoned really well and tasted great, but I wish they were crispy on the outside.
- Regular Stack of Chocolate Chip Pancakes ($7.25 + $1.75 for chocolate chips): We got this to share between the 6 of us. They were fine, but I don’t feel the need to get them again.
Toucan Louie’s has good food at a reasonable price with large portions.

We had at a nice late lunch at this unassuming cafe on Rozzelle's Ferry. There's an "order here" sign at the register, but while we looked at the menus, the friendly cashier suggested we take them to a table and he'd come get our orders when we were ready.
We sat on the covered patio and enjoyed a breakfast burrito and jerk chicken salad sandwich.
Afterwards, craving something sweet, we went inside to look at their baked goods and decided on a blueberry biscuit.
All the food was good and really affordable at under $10. You can conveniently pay on your phone too, at your own time when you're done.

Love this place. If I wanted to be a picky butt nugget, only thing I’d mention is their breakfast burritos are always made differently. Not bad but sometimes the veggies don’t get cooked as long. But hey I’m totally not complaining. This place is a hidden gem and delicious. Love the food and the atmosphere. Just awesome , we get take out every weekend.

3/10/2022. Decided to stop here for lunch. A new spot to try! I ordered the open face turkey sandwich with gravy which was delicious and reminded me of my moms version. It came with mashed potatoes and green beans.
I saw on the counter a cake holder with turnovers in it and they looked homemade so I ordered the cherry one. The food was good but the turnover was the star of the show!!! I would recommend stopping here for lunch and definitely a turnover!

I came here a few months back and had an absolutely terrible experience. The place was slammed, which I understand as it was a Sunday morning, but I had to wait 20 minutes to order as they told me that they weren't taking orders until they could catch up. I sat for the 20 minutes, place my order, then proceeded to wait another hour and a half before giving up and asking for a refund, which they obliged.
I was in a rush the other day and figured I would give it another shot, as the previous employees had told me that it normally was not like that.
When I walked in I noticed that the staff was completely different. While I was placing my order I had mentioned my bad experience to the cashier and one of the ladies cooking in the back heard me. She was aware of the previously poor management and told me that all of the folks who were previously there were now gone, and she was curious as to why I came back. I told her I had always thought the place was cute and I was in a pinch, being it was so close by, I figured I would try it again.
Needless to say, the current staff is absolutely amazing and my food came out within less than 5 minutes. Everyone working there now is a joy and I will gladly return when I am back in the area.
Give Toucan Louie's a shot--you won't be disappointed.
P.S. Try the cinnamon rolls 😄!!

Go here!!! It is in an a bit of a sparse location, but is an easy drive from CLT airport. It completely exceeded our expectations. We got the chimichurri steak sandwich and a pimento bacon egg breakfast sandwich on a biscuit. Both were delicious. The cucumber salad was super fresh. And the coffee was good!

What a wonderful place. This is our second visit and we will be back again. The menu is great and has you covered from breakfast, to lunch, dinner, and late night snack. The staff is friendly and responsive.
We’ve enjoyed the Cuban, Chimichurri steak, and turkey feta and spinach wrap. All the dishes we’ve had have been just wonderful.
If you have an opportunity to meet the wonderful owner Mark, ask him or the staff about where they got their name from it’s a great story.
In addition to the great menu they also have a nice selection of items that you can carry to go including things like wine, craft beer, specialty nonalcoholic beverages. They also have the most amazing black garlic. If you’ve never had it it’s a must try and worth the visit itself.

We're making our way through the the Yelp top 100 list and this was our most recent stop.
It's a cute little no frills market over on the west side. The parking lot is small, but we came for lunch on a weekday and it wasn't crowded so we got a spot.
The ordering process was a bit awkward. The person taking our order seemed confused, but it all worked out.
We got the Chimichurri Steak and Cuban BBQ sandwiches with a side of mac and cheese, a lemonade, and a slice of apple pecan cake.
The Cuban BBQ was my favorite. The meat was perfect and I loved the slaw. The Chimichurri Steak Sandwich was good, but I didn't taste any chimichurri sauce which was disappointing. The cake was fantastic.
The only let down was the mac and cheese. It tasted like Velveeta cheese and just wasn't very good. I wouldn't get that again.
After we sat down and got our food someone came and made sure we had everything we needed. They also do free refills on their homemade lemonade which is really nice.
If you want a good sandwich and a relaxing place to hang out, this is your place.

I only rated service at 1 because the kitchen is extremely slow. I mean VERY SLOW! The wait staff is amazing. We waited over 45 mins for a to go order for 3 people and the restaurant wasnt very busy at the time. On the upside the food is great so maybe it was worth the wait but still frustrating. May not be back any time soon

Amazing! Had the breakfast burrito and a biscuit breakfast sandwich with all the meats! OMG the coffee was great. Staff was welcoming and thoughtful. Just a great local spot! If you dont eat here you are missing out! 100%

We went here for breakfast after our friend Dave’s last night as a bachelor. Great sweet tea and biscuits and gravy, a true southern breakfast (Exactly what Dave was looking for). Very friendly staff, they greeted Dave with a smile. Glad we could close out Dave’s big weekend with an enjoyable meal
