50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Charlotte

“Great food. Ambience, place and fast service“

“the pistachio baklava latte was so good. TK is everything you could want in a proprietor ( friendly! helpful! generous!) I found this beloved neighborhood coffeehouse by looking online. I wanted somewhere I would feel comfortable lounging ( comfortable chairs and various rooms/spaces, warm, good zibe) and working. I was not looking for a sleek sterile coffeehouse. I loved it that people can draw or write on the walls and that even though this was done with sharpies, I didn't see any evidence of ill will or critiquing if others. I was offered a sharpie myself not long after I arrived. what a great place! I'll be back whenever I pass through Charlotte. did I mention that the pistachio baklava latte was delicious? real pistachios! just right sweetness.“

“Not just another coffee place. What an incredible experience that touches your soul.“

“Great place to get your steps in and explore, I meet more charlotteans here every time I visit. I’ve performed here, been apart of a music video, done a photo shoot, and groomed a cute dog for a store owner it’s a win all around“

“Food and service amazing However : Server totally ignored me and only talked to my daughter. Also we were asked to leave when they started to get busy. Music was loud and even my twenty something old daughter thought it was awful. Those things would prevent me from going back or recommending it to anyone else“

“Everything was awesome. Really loved Priscilla. Food was great and service was awesome. Celebrating our son’s 21st birthday early due to military orders and he will be away on his “21” We love this restaurant.“

“On Friday 8/23, we came to The Crunkleton on a recommendation for my daughter’s birthday and we were NOT disappointed! From the moment we walked in the atmosphere and the staff were wonderful! We had Cole as our server and regardless of how busy it was that night, he made us feel like we were his only priority. He was very knowledgeable about your massive spirit selections and I mean massive! The food was fantastic and cooked to perfection. We got the Really Good Burger and let me tell you, we said medium and it was on point! It was very well seasoned which is rare when you go out to restaurants. Then to top off the night, my daughter got the beignets with the cold brew icing, WOW! I am a sweets person and these with that icing just WOW! Cole even put a candle on the rim of the dish because it was her birthday! So, you have our business any time we are in Charlotte! I just can’t say enough about our experience!!! You have a great place, amazing food, a wonderful spirits collection, and definitely not last or least a fantastic server in Cole!! Thank you for making my daughter’ s birthday and my first time in Charlotte such a great memory!!!“

“Tatia and Jamie were great and so was the food!!! Tatia made sure we had a stellar experience and her recommendations were spot on. Jamie was helpful, polite and very energetic. I will certainly be back to try other dishes. If you need recommendations, the salmon, rice and espresso gelato were simply amazing!!!!“

“Delicious food and extra friendly staff“

“Very good food, and great service“

“Refreshing Lunch Spot with Great Food and Service

On a random Tuesday while out adulting, I decided to stop by Maiz Agua Sal for a late lunch, and I was pleasantly surprised. The decor is refreshing and modern, with the tree at the entrance being a standout design feature—it sets a great tone for the dining experience. We were seated immediately, and the service throughout was superb. Our waitress was delightful and very knowledgeable about the menu, making the experience even better.

The complimentary chips and salsa were a hit, and the peanut salsa was a pleasant surprise. Trust me, don’t knock it until you try it! The guacamole was incredibly fresh, and the tacos were delicious. Their 3 for $10 taco special is a great deal, and each one was packed with flavor. I also tried the Huarache De Tinga, which was absolutely delicious.

I almost forgot to mention the churros—a perfect way to end the meal! They were a sweet, satisfying treat that tied the whole experience together.

Although I was only there for lunch, I’m already planning to return to enjoy their drinks and check out the cool fire pit outside. Maiz Agua Sal is a fantastic spot for great food, a relaxed atmosphere, and exceptional service. Highly recommend!“

“Great casual place. Service is awesome. Locally owned Bartender Joe is fabulous“

“Prime Fish is the very best for sashimi that you will find anywhere in NC. The quality they use is just superior to all others. It literally melts in your mouth. The chefs are genius and pure artists.“

“Had the opportunity to DJ a wedding at the Goodyear house and Work with the amazing team. I really enjoyed getting to know Anna, the event manager. She was extremely helpful and super professional. Can’t wait to come back for more events!!“

“A family favorite for many years. Was back in town after a few years and went there for dinner takeout. Quantity and overall taste was good - a little bland and too saucy.
Took a few points on service as the take out guy gave me grief about requesting fortune cookies and utensils.“

“Incredible food, ambiance and service. Our waitress, Ashley, was outstanding. This sweet young lady was bubbly, outgoing and attentive. We couldn't have asked for a better evening out.“

“Vegas Baby Vegas was the best taco I’ve ever had!“

“Excellent service is a rare thing to find these days, but the Southpark manager, Sharon, and our server, Allie (sorry if misspelled) hit it out of the park Monday night. I had a crazy request, and she and Allie not only fulfilled it, they exceeded my expectations and we had a PERFECT date night evening. The food and the wine were amazing, and I will definitely go back again even if just for the truffled cheddar! It's exactly the kind of place you go when you want to chill, visit, and enjoy a nice glass of wine.“

“Server Elif was really fantastic.“

“This place is AWESOME! great food and great service.“

“Good food nice waitress very hot and enjoyable experience“

“Great service, great food, great vibes. If you’re looking for a quick bite, this is definitely the place. They checked all the boxes. Would definitely eat here again.“

“Finally got to try Sips and Dips for the first time, and it was a fun experience! I’ve never had craft soda like this before and was pleasantly surprised at how good it was. The concept is unique, and they offer plenty of options with different sizes and soda bases to choose from.

The space inside is small, but they make up for it with a nice patio outside that’s perfect for sitting and enjoying your drink. Overall, a great spot. I’ll definitely be back!“

“I just had the Meat Balls for the first time.. They were amazing. I also got a favorite that I get every time I go the Diavola Pizza and it was cooked great.“

“This is easily the best greek food in Charlotte! Every time I come back home to Charlotte, I’m here at least every other day. They have such good quality food, great portions and prices and an amazing staff! I highly recommend supporting this business.“

“My wife and I had dinner at the Charlotte location this evening. We had great service from our server Noah, who was very quick to take our drink order and provided attentive service for our entire dinner. We both ordered a Chimichangas (my wife had the chicken and I had the beef). Both were delicious, well seasoned and served hot. (fwiw) noted the staff were sweeping and cleaning the restaurant tables quickly, after a table turned.“

“Was a delicious breakfast. Great service and pretty inside. Would be nice to try outside next time and the dinner.“

“Love the CLT Crew! Manager Katy is a BOSS!“

“Ooommmmggggg, if you haven't eaten here, you are missing out. The service is great, the pastries are to die for, and the sandwiches are filled with so much flavor! We just ate here for lunch and I'm already looking forward to going back.“

“first time eating ice cream from here. nice addition to downtown Concord. the thin mint ice cream is great.“

“First, very large outdoor and indoor seating available. Over 50 or so brews on tap, as well as wine and liquor options. I had the steak burger with jalapeño slaw, which was ok. Burger was thin but tasty. Slaw wasn't any slaw I've ever seen, kinda dry. Overall, it's a better place to get a brew than food, in my opinion. Would definitely go back.“

“What a gem! In house drip of the day was perfectly hot and deliciously brewed. A must try- the everything savory danish. I absolutely loved the self service station to heat my pastry and doctor my coffee as I like. I’m excited to try the freshly ground for me bag of beans I chose to take home. It’s a pleasure to support a local and small business. Bonus: if you can’t make it in person, they do Friday deliveries! A must try for sure!“

“Great service & food friendly“

“I am an Argentina native and was so excited to find out about this place. The medialunas are amazing ! the dough of the empanadas are 10/10 but I feel the empanada filling is overwhelmed by cumin. If it didn't have cumin, I feel like they would even be better than my mom's!“

“Picked up a delicious dish from Love in action cafe yesterday for my wife's birthday and daayyuumm this place is amazing! If any of yall are in the charlotte area definitely stop by and give this place a try, u won't be disappointed 🤘 ~SiD~“

“Kevin J was amazing, friendly and great recommendations! The trifecta and biscuits & Gravy where perfect!“

“I went with a friend from out of town nice local spot environment“

“Great place highly recommend!!“

“This place was so nice the employees were the bomb My waiter Greg S was soooooo nice I'm coming back“

“If you like meat, more meat,and then now meat,this is the place! Great Colombian atmosphere, amazing staff, and great prices to portion ratio. Nothing generic about the S. American food offerings. Just platters of fried,grilled,roasted meats and sauces. Come hungry, and Provechè. Its one of Charlotte's little best kept corner spots near the Latino side of town in a plaza.“

“Mac Tabby cat cafe was a fun stop while in NoDa. The staff were cheerful and welcoming. We got our drinks(amazing btw) and spent 30mins playing and interacting with the amazing cats they have on site. if we hadn't been visiting from out of state, we would have tried to go home with 3 of them. haha Definitely a great spot!“
