Picadeli’s Pub

Everything we have had here has been excellent. I am especially fond of the wings, they are the very best in town. They have a secret touch that makes it unique and special! Highly recommended.

I didnt have time to get wings, but I heard they were excellent here.
The only reason it doesnt get 5 stars is the fact that I can get the same sandwich for a little cheaper (and closer) locally, but its still a good tasting sandwich and I will return to try some more menu items.

Really great food. Everything I have tried so far has been up to par. They make everything fresh. And the locations is easy to come and go. It may look small from the outside but there is plenty of seating on the inside and they also have take out if you are in a hurry.

Never been here before. Walked in and was immediately charmed. I asked the sweet man at the counter what he liked and he gave me a few suggestions and I decided on the french dip sandwich. Omg! It was delicious. The vread was warm and soft snd the beefso tender. The aujus was excellent. I cant wait to invite the family for one of dinner at picadeli’s… excellent!!!

We have been here a few times for lunch and have enjoyed it. The French Dip is my go to meal (no onions sub mushrooms) and it never disappoints. I have also had the corned beef which was great; their onion rings are solid! Excellent local beer selection and they even have a delicious local cider on draft! The prices are decent (a bit pricey in my opinion) but the service is hit or miss which is why I knocked off a star.

Great place to get a great deli sandwich, pita burger, Wings, and French onion soup! So many options to go with a cold one!

I’ve been here three times now after being given a good referral from another local business. I’ve only had the food for carry out, so can’t talk to the inside service, but the lady at the register has been very friendly.
The main reason I stopped here was for the wings and I was not disappointed. They are traditional buffalo style wings with a little extra flavor. I do always ask for mine well done/​crispy and they’ve come out great.
I haven’t tried anything else here as I really like their wings and have been looking for a good wing source in Matthews since I moved here a year ago.
They will eventually learn my name, because I plan to be here often.

This place is close to the CPCC campus in Matthews which makes it a convenient place to stop after class with friends. The food is good, typical bar food. They have fried pickles which are always a hit with me. I have had the veggie burger a few times which is also pretty good, slightly greasy but good.
They have a local beer selection on draft which is nice, not many options but any is a big plus for me. The wait staff is great and very friendly. I always see a lot of people ordering take out from here as well which I would probably do every once in a while if I lived in the area but not something I would go out of my way for.

Several months ago my wife was transferred to Royal Park Nursing Home in Matthews. Right around the corner from us is a treasure named Picadeli’s Pub. It is a family owned business run by George, the ever present host and ambassador of good will. He is great with his customers and staff. Over the seven months that my wife and I have been getting take out from Picadeli’s we have developed a great relationship. The food at Picadeli’s is always fresh, made with love and care and makes us feel very good when we dine on their sumptuous delights. I cannot recommend the establishment enough and would encourage groups, couples and families to come and dine in or use carry-​out at Picadeli’s Pub. You will not be sorry and save time to chat with George he will always leave you with a smile and welcome you back in the near future!

My parents live near Picadeli’s Pub and are always talking about it. I have finally made my way there. The rents love the wings here, but I went for the chicken salad sandwich– which took me forever, because all of the sandwiches on the menu sounded great. The sandwich was good, and I would go there again for it. I got the food to-​go so I am not sure what the real service or atmosphere is like. But if you are looking for a good deli sandwich, it is worth checking out.

This is not a deli. I have been here twice. The first time I got a pastrami or corn beef sandwich (I forget), it was alright. This time I got chicken parm. It was not chicken parm. The chicken was not breaded. Cardinal sin! It also had some seasoning on it that made me think it was meant for another dish and they throw this same chicken on the parm sandwiches. The marinara was BLAND. It is supposed to have mozzarella, the quantity of cheese was so small it was hard to tell if the cheese was mozz or not. I don’t think it was. I ate half the sandwich, and then ate some left over italian sausage instead, that’s how terrible and bland this sandwich was. I won’t be back.

I usually only write good reviews but this place doesn’t deserve one at all. My husband and I went there for wings. Wish we hadn’t. They are known for their «wings», I won’t be eating them again anywhere for awhile because of how absolutely gross they were. When we got the wings, they were cold! We told our waitress who then said she would have the cook «drop them again», not remake them fresh! We got the new order which were dry and hot, full of dropping grease and absolutely disgusting. Our bill was 25.00 without tip. We got wings, side salads, a water and a Pepsi! The waitress was pleasant but that’s the only thing about the restaurant that was pleasant. I don’t know how this place received any compliments or stars at all. It’s sad you pay your hard earned money for nasty food. That’s why I unfortunately don’t try new places most of the time and this one is misleading by all of it’s reviews.

Good food, good people and good prices.
Hey, this is a pub not Delmonico’s. That said the sandwiches are very good, the beer is cold and the service is fast and friendly.
For a good meal with the buddies this place is great.

As has been mentioned recently, there are not a lot of places around Charlotte that are not chains of some sort or another. Picadeli’s is one such location that is most definitely not a chain. In fact, it is rather difficult to describe just what it is.
Up front, it’s a bit of a deli (you might have figured that part out). But I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone actually order meat to go, like you might at an actual deli — though they do have meat in cases, like you may see in a grocery store deli. I suppose you could, I’ve just never seen it done.
Instead, you are generally seated along a somewhat narrow space and order from a menu. There are certainly a number of dishes made from that meat (or some meat, it could be that meat is just for show), and most of it is done fairly well.
There isn’t anything purely outstanding here, but you do have some excellent service — they may not know your name (or maybe I haven’t been enough yet), but it is certainly a great place to pop in for a sandwich, catch a game and get a bite to eat that is most definitely not a chain.

Ice cold beer and a great sandwich! What more is there to say! Staff was also very friendly, so that’s one more thing to say. Great time for a pint and food.

Beer selection doesn’t change much if at all here. They do keep Old Meck on tap though. The food is good and if you like a good corned beef sandwich then they have a really good one here. I order one with double meat and close my eye’s and try really hard to remember that feeling I had when sitting and eating at Katz Deli in NYC.

Great French dips and burgers. The calamari is also good. It is a little pricey for the family but worth it. The owner remembers us even though we only come every 6 months or so. This is definitely a favorite for my family.

Great Sandwiches and pub style food. This place reminds me of Cheers cause the staf is so friendly and they make you feel at home.

Given the suburban sprawl that has consumed Matthews as of late, I was surprised to discover a true «hole in the wall» establishment that has been around for decades and, aptly, residing in a strip mall off the highway, complete with adjoining sketchy alley.
You can tell Picadeli’s has been around a while: the atmosphere is warm and dark with rich wood stained bars and has an unassuming welcoming like a family friend’s kitchen. The staff are casual and kind and there is even a late 80s, early 90s arcade game tucked in the corner.
The menu is an interesting mix of things, ranging from burgers and grilled cheese to fish and chips. The star here, though, are the deli sandwiches, where the meat and cheese are sliced when you order and are generously piled on. And we’re talking traditional Chicago and New York sandwiches with an amazing potato salad as a side item option. You can also order meats and cheeses by the pound to take home, too.
Killer food, cheap prices, and a local landmark of sorts make this a great lunch spot that I plan to visit again and often!
