| - For the lunch break of my second day of work ever, my girlfriend and I decided to try The Toast Cafe, which I had heard about from a compelling newspaper review. She had been before in Charlotte and the Davidson area, but this particular one was going to be a new experience for us both. As opposed to Father's Day, when it was predictably packed and impossible to obtain a table, the Tuesday lunch hour provided a lull for accessibility. She had already gotten a table and water by the time I arrived, shortly after she did. I ordered a club sandwich, and she got a Western Omelette. I was surprised and impressed by how quickly the food arrived at our table after we ordered. Hers looked good, and mine tasted great. As opposed to many club sandwiches, which are unwieldy and almost unmanageable in their size, this one was just about perfect for an afternoon meal. Her side hash browns looked incredible. The potato salad was pretty decent, but it wasn't terribly remarkable. I could've done with an option for French fries or maybe soup/salad. No big deal there though. The sandwich was the star of this show, and it delivered. She said the omelette was excellent as well. The atmosphere is very nice, casual and laid back, and there is porch seating for fresh air as well. One thing: it is kind of confusing when dealing with staff because their policy is apparently that every waiter is your waiter. While this can be helpful for both patrons and staff members, it does kind of take away from the personal touch one may usually find at other restaurants. Overall though, it was a great experience. I imagine we'll be back there soon.
