If you’ve been in Charlotte over the past few years, it is no surprise that the Queen City has a lot to offer for ‘foodies.’ There are literally hundreds of restaurants with a variety of cuisines. And according to Southern Living magazine, Charlotte has some of the best eating spots.
The magazine put together a list of the 22 best restaurants in Charlotte. It doesn’t matter what you crave — Southern traditional, Italian, Asian, or seafood — Charlotte’s culinary landscape has something for you. I have lived in Charlotte for more than two decades and I still have not experienced even half of the restaurants on their list.
In the article, Southern Living boasts of many of the successes made on Charlotte’s food scene. It states “For years, the Queen City has steadily marched toward becoming a top food city in the South—with recent nods from the James Beard Foundation validating its expertise and growth.”
And growth indeed. There are new restaurants popping up regularly. From fresh seafood, street tacos to rolled sushi, the sky is the limit. Charlotte’s international flare (Vietnamese, Ethiopian) on food makes it even more difficult to decide just where to go.
Which is why I listed a few of the restaurants I’ve already visited. (In no particular order) And if you’re open to trying something new AND good, then check these out. Check out a full list of Southern Living’s restaurant recommendations.
