We took my father in law to 74 East for lunch . They serve breakfast all day and that’s what we all got . Never disappoints always delicious! We have been eating here for years . We ate at the other location when it was on Hwy 74 Indian Trail NC . Followed them to the location on Monroe road . If you want a good satisfying meal go no further than 74 East !

I've been coming here for years and never had a bad meal here.. Anna is my waitress for most of those years and love that she always on her game . I do wish they would serve chicken and dumplings more than on Tuesday. They are some of the best in charlotte .. Also, they do serve liver and onions every day, and it's very good if you like liver. Freshly made soups every day and very good Greek Salads . They also hav very good vegan or vegetarian options. Just a great around restaurant and worth your time to try out .. they serve breakfast till 2pm everyday .

Always enjoy my visits with Tommy at the East 74 Restaurant. Always leave very happy, with a full tummy, and a good cup of coffee.

Great homestyle meals. Know the specials and items available daily before visiting since the menu changes daily. Always something good in my opinion.

My brother and I have eaten many meals here, on different days and times of day. Food is delicious and portions are generous. Prices are affordable. Waite staff are friendly, knowledgeable, attentive and efficient. Food is served promptly. No one leaves hungry. Waitresses anticipate the needs of repeat customers. Manager keeps the customers’ seating moving well to maintain minimal waiting, even during busy times. This eatery is not fancy, but is fantastic !

So yum!!!!!! Wow! The pancakes were soft, fluffy, buttery, and so delicious!! Coffee was filled often and served hot. So good!! The price was good value! FYI Just bring cash unless you don't mind paying slightly more for credit card

Wow, fast breakfast! I wasn't feeling fast food, so I thought I'd give this a try. Glad I did! It was fast food speed and sit down & enjoy quality. Right on target.

You can’t beat the price and service. The food comes out hot and fast. Coffee flowed freely & we enjoyed our family breakfast.
