Restaraunt Help- North Charlotte

I don't know what you mean by nice. I never get out there but happened to be in the University area Sunday and we ate at Cheddars, its like an Applebees but with decent food, nicer decor, and a pretty good menu. It's not Chez Ritz but I've been there a few times over the years and its always been consistently good.

I go to Charlotte about once every three months for work, and Harris blvd has several nice places, both chain and non chain. But I probably have a different definition of nice.  I remember going to a small hole in the wall Jamaican place near UNCC that had good food, relatively cheap, and I thought it was very nice. 

 

Unfortunately, I can't remember any names.  :)

Cheddars is actually pretty good and you described it well. Never had a bad meal there. 

"Nice" options are limited in the area. But here are a couple in the UNCC area:

Firewater (Probably the only thing close to an "upscale" restaurant in the area). 

Nakato - Japanese 

Edgewater (inside the Hilton)

Ciros (small Italian joint that been around for years)

As far as Concord Mills - the options are endless but nothing "nice". Mostly chains as mentioned. I always wind up at Texas Roadhouse when in that area which is underrated for a good steak.

Ciros is good. I haven't been there in 10 years though.  Fiesta maya on Harris is pretty good too.

Not trying to be rude but you are looking on the wrong side of town. There’s nothing out there for you. Better off driving 20-30 mins to a different part of town. 

Yeah, not for me. Guy I work with is headed that way. 

I usually stay in town when I travel, which is why I'm asking about north.

Last time I was at Cheedars a mouse ran across the table.  No fuggin lie.

Oh and avoid that Jersey Mikes over there, spent the weekend vomiting after my last visit to that shethole.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
