See What We Serve

A Charlotte Original

The Diamond Restaurant has been a fixture on Commonwealth Avenue in Charlotte's Plaza Midwood neighborhood for decades. We're the kind of place where regulars know the staff by name and newcomers feel right at home the moment they walk through the door.

Our menu is built around honest comfort food — burgers, hot dogs, sandwiches, and diner classics — with Greek, Italian, and Southern accents that set us apart. Whether you're craving a fried bologna sandwich loaded "all the way," a hearty patty melt with fries, or a salmon BLT, there's something here for everyone.

We've got counter seating, a handful of tables inside, and patio seating for when the Charlotte weather cooperates. It's old-school dining done right — no fuss, just good food and friendly faces.

What Our Guests Say

My fried bologna sandwich was one of the best I ever had. Got it with "all the way". We also got the freshly made chips. Try the Vidalia Onion Dip. Our waitress, Tammy M. was very friendly and very helpful. We highly recommend this restaurant.

I'm still on a mission to try most of the old restaurants in Charlotte, NC. The patty melt and French fries did not disappoint. I like the old school vibe they had in there and everyone was very nice.
