Hello!! Im coming down this weekend for the ACCCG (Go Hokies!). Now ive been to several Panther games but ive tailgated the day and then left. Were driving in tomorrow night and staying til sunday with a friend who lives near the airport. I just wanted to ask ya'll where some good restaurants and bars are in Charlotte .

Ive heard The Penguin is a must to go to so thats on our agenda and I saw there is a Hooters about a mile away from the stadium and Ive been to Stool Pigeons in Raleigh and loved it so we might try that too. Were gonna go to Blackfinn prior to the game saturday because there is a Hokie Alumni group that sets up there, but we wanna go to other bars as well.

What other good bars are there around BoA stadium (within walking distance) and other good restaurants just in the area of charlotte . Price, Service, Atmosphere (sports like) is what were looking for..any suggestions would be appreciated.

I'm in a rut and could use some different restaurant recommendations for tomorrow night. We always go to the same places. We are going to the Bobcats game tomorrow night. I want dinner before and dessert after the game. We always end up in Noda or the epicenter. I want a different place to try out for dinner and after game dessert (not Crave Dessert). Any suggestions?

Amelie(sp?) in NoDa is a jamming dessert/coffee spot.

does dinner have to be Uptown? Or just within 5 minutes?Kwan you want to spend? Hell, i dont think i know of any new places.

places... newest place ive been uptown is BLT. Lot of people gave it less than good reviews, but ive eaten there 3 times and it was good. expensive though.

ate lunch at that new Mexican place at Epi the week it opened...it was actually good. right on the corner of Trade.

Amelies is a good late night dessert place as pstall said

You should try hitting up the south side of uptown,I suggest going to pikes you can grab dinner or desserts there, its a pretty cool old school soda shop with like a homecooked southern menu. Or check out some place in the elizabeth or dilworth area they have quite a few cool spots.

As far as my hood,

PSA: Hawthornes Pizza sucks...despite th cult following.

ive only eaten there once, and its very deceiving from the outside...but Bistro La Bon is pretty good. Ate brunch there and was very pleasantly surprised. It was a buffet , so i havent ordered from the menu but i suspect its good.

LuLu is good for a couples dinner too. Its a little further down Central.

Soul Gastro Lounge(on central) has good food if you cant take the thumping club music. But it isnt too bad earlier in the evening.

Blackfinn is okay to drink, but I'm not crazy about their food. Check out Morehead St. Tavern. Not too far from the stadium.

Looks like a cool place. So everyone is telling me that this famous burger joint in charlotte is closed down and is reopening but not open yet? I will try out some of the places suggested. Thanks a lot.

How about transportation? is the CATS the best thing to use? or just grab a taxi. there is 11 of us. Were coming from around Yorkmont Shopping Center.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.

      "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
