(704) 541-4113
Categories:
Burgers,
Chicken Wings,
Cheesesteaks
Neighbourhood: Ballantyne
Ohhh DD Peckers - the Wednesday night trivia SPOT. The owner, Justin, is a riot. This place has a dive feel with KILLER wings - just make sure you get them well done! NOM. Everything is good though - fried pickes, salads, cheese fries, you name…More »

Charlotte, NC 28203
(704) 201-4586
Categories:
Yoga,
Martial Arts
Neighbourhoods: South End, Dilworth
How do I begin to convey my love of this little Charlotte gem?! Two friends of mine told me about Arrichion on a Thursday night... I woke up Friday with a groupon in my inbox for 20 classes for 20 dollars at Arrichion and thought, it must be fate!

3. Thai Taste
I have a slight addiction to Thai Taste. And by slight I actually mean I could eat it every single day.
Nestled in a little corner off of East Blvd (attached to Paper Sky Scrapers) this is by far the best Thai place in Charlotte.
The food comes…More »
4. Menchie's Frozen Yogurt
Charlotte, NC 28203
(704) 348-1256
Category:
Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt
Neighbourhood: Dilworth
By far one of my favorite places in Charlotte. My boyfriend and I go here at least twice a week and I am ashamed to admit that I actually have a Menchie's reward card (I received $5 free on my last visit!).
Not only are there amazing options for ice…More »
5. Good Food on Montford
Charlotte, NC 28209
(704) 525-0881
Categories:
American (New),
Tapas Bars
Neighbourhood: South Park
This place is a 10. A perfect date night if you are comfortable enough to share a few small plates after seeing a movie at the Park Road Movie Theater.
This place really over-delivers. The service is impeccable, and the food is divine.
Understated,…More »
6. Amelie's French Bakery
Charlotte, NC 28205
(704) 376-1781
Categories:
Bakeries,
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhood: NoDa
What is there to say about Amelie's that you don't already know? It's the perfect place for a carafe of french press, a few pastries and some good ol' fashion people watching. Not to mention it's open 24 hours!
Bring your computer or a book and…More »

(704) 333-3396
Categories:
American (New),
Seafood
Neighbourhood: Elizabeth
It hurts me to give this place a 4 out of 5 stars. It really does. Probably one of my favorite restaurants in Charlotte.
That being said, the last two times I've been there I've made poor choices in ordering. I would recommend steering away from…More »
9. Buffalo Exchange
Charlotte, NC 28205
(704) 372-2300
Category:
Used, Vintage & Consignment

This is another place I would love to be selfish about and keep to myself! Cute clothes, great condition, and the ability to trade! What's not to love?
If you're looking for a high-end consignment shop with new, old, & vintage pieces this is going…More »

Charlotte, NC 28205
(704) 348-1848
Categories:
Tapas Bars,
Lounges
Neighbourhood: Plaza Midwood
I love this place so much that I almost don't want to give a review for fear of too many people finding out about this absolute gem of a restaurant.
The staff is one of a kind, the ambiance is like morphing out of Charlotte and into LA, and the food…More »
11. Armis Salon & Spa
I drive by this place every day on my way to and from work and it just so happens that today I needed a haircut before my trip out of town this weekend. I did some research about places in the area and Armis Salon was still the most reasonably…More »
12. Yoga One
By far the best Yoga place I have ever been to. I started going here before I started a new job in Ballantyne so unfortunately I don't have the time to go anymore but I DEFINITELY would recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a yoga…More »
13. Terra
Charlotte, NC 28207
(704) 332-1886
I should start with the disclaimer that we only got a drink here before a movie at Manor. But wow did we talk about this place for days after! We sat at the little bar in the front and talked to our waiter about movies and music and Charlotte. We…More »
14. Pio Pio
Hands down, this place rocks. It's usually the same two servers who are always friendly and on the ball. The food is authentic, the place is clean, rarely crowded, and the prices are cheap. What is there not to love here?
We usually get the…More »

First of all, this place is phenomenal. I have a membership to the Morrison (close to work), but decided to come try out Dowd on the weekend since it's so close to my house.

Bars,
American (New),
Breakfast & Brunch
Neighbourhood: Lower Greenville
We came to Vickery on a recommendation from the employees at the Pearl Cup.
Vickery Park is a diamond in the rough. A dive bar in all its glory, Vickery is the place to go if you are looking for somewhere low-key with dim lighting, great food & drink…More »
20. Genghis Grill
What a treat! I have never been to any place like the Genghis Grill. I have to admit, the name and the outward appearance of this restaurant really made me not want to take that leap of faith - but I am glad I did! Not to mention it's great for…More »
21. Snug Harbor
Snug Harbor should get its own category of bar. If I had to choose I guess it has to go into the Dive category. All you really need to know is that it's incredible--a hole in the wall with people from every corner of Charlotte. I won't be a…More »

If you are looking for…More »
23. Pinky's Westside Grill
This place is what I like to call FUNKY FRESH!
A true gem of Charlotte, with people from all walks of life and menu items that are more eccentric than the customers. Just to give you a little taste - menu items include everything from sriracha to…More »

Categories:
Delis,
Farmers Market

It blows my mind that it has taken me this long to write a review of The Common Market. I have been frequenting this place for what feels like decades. Truly the only place of its kind in Charlotte. The Common Market is your eclectic…More »

Vegetarian

Just wanted to give this place a shoutout because I had reservations with them yesterday. It was my first time and I was so excited that I had invited 8 ffriends. Evidently there was a car accident outside of their restaurant and they lost power.…More »

We had a lovely evening at Lulu. They were warm, accomodating for our group of 8, friendly and helpful.
The waitress brought us complimentary appetizers and was quick to help on the wine selection. She was always very attentive and sweet to our…More »

Holy shit I love this place. Please keep in mind that I have only ever been here after several adult beverages. This place smells like urine, the karaoke is outdated, and its FREAKING awesome.
It's definitely a nice change to the other…More »
