Carolina Soda Shoppe - 4121 Park Road, Charlotte, NC - (704)525-8420
"Great Burgers and Hot Dogs" - This quaint soda shop at Park Road Shopping Center has freshly made great burgers and hot dogs just like you used to get at the corner drugstore. Don't forget the "freshly squeezed" orangeade or lemonade either, not to mention the smiling familiar faces of the ladies who work here!
Diamond Restaurant - 1901 Commonwealth Avenue, Charlotte NC - (704)375-8959
"Great Meat & Three" - This is one of our favorite lunch spots for a meat and veggie plate! This restaurant has been around Charlotte for decades. You will run into everyone and anyone when you dine here as long as they appreciate good food! Baked chicken, salisbury steak, chicken & dumplings, and more along with all your favorite veggies. Need warming up some day, try the Diamond Restaurant and tell Jerry we sent you!
Fenwick's - 511 Providence Road, Charlotte NC - (704)333-2750
"Best Steak Sandwich" - This quaint "neighborhood" restaurant, located in Myers Park, is frequented by many of the locals. They have my absolute FAVORITE steak sandwich, which is really a tenderloin sandwich! It is so tender and always cooked perfectly. If a steak sandwich is not your pick, they have many other items on their menu -- try their "homemade" soups!
Manzetti's Tavern - 6401 Morrison Boulevard, Charlotte NC - (704)364-9334
"Best Broiled Chicken Salad" - This great restaurant has been located in the SouthPark Specialty Shops for many years. This salad is on the list of "favorites" for many! The chicken breast is marinated in fruit juices (I taste a hint of pineapple) for 48 hours and laid on a bed of mixed greens along with hearts of palm, mushrooms, tomatoes, scallions and topped with their fabulous "Hot Bacon and Honey Mustard" dressing. It is the best! Check out their menu for many other tasty items too.
Price's Chicken Coop - 1614 Camden Road, Charlotte, NC - (704)333-9866
"Best Fried Chicken" - This chicken is just like your Grandmother used to fry up on Sundays after church! Bring cash in hand (credit cards and checks not accepted) and a hearty appetite and make sure you have a plan for where you plan to eat it as there is no seating either. Don't miss this treat!
