Where is the Best Family-Friendly Dining in Charlotte, North Carolina?
Went to the location on S Tryon. Being new to Charlotte, I had never heard of Cook Out, but tried it because a co-worker said they had great milkshakes and hot dogs. I ordered a slaw dog, onion rings and vanilla milkshake and it was GREAT! That was the best hot dog I have had in a really long time. If you like a super thick milkshakes, you’ll enjoy theirs. The onion rings were also good, but were more along the lines of frozen in a box, not homemade. On a later visit, I tried the Cheddar Burger which was extra cheesy and had grilled onion on it. It was also delicious! Both times I have gone, I have been extra pleased at the prices!! You can feed 2 people for under $10 and have great food! The next time I’m in the mood for a hot dog or good burger, I will skip normal fast food joints like McDonalds, Burger King and Jack in the Box and head straight to Cook Out. Pros + Hot dog, milkshakes and prices
Me and a couple of my girls were getting our hair done when someone mentioned that they were stopping by Pike’s to get something to eat. So We order carry out. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Then once we sat down to eat out carry out food. It was still warm and the food was DELICIOUS!!!!We had a variety of things. From hotdog & hamburger platters to the Meatlof Dinner & Peacan Chicken dinner (which was the highlight of all the meals). Even the sweet tea was good. You know how funny us down home southern folk are about out Tea, and it was perfect. We would go back any day of the week!!!! A great little place.
Went to the Penguin last Friday. Both of us are new to Charlotte, and after seeing a clip about The Penguin on the Food Network, I suggested that we try it. First, we didn’t know were to park, but found a dirt lot near by. There was a huge line outside, but considering there were like 14 groups ahead of us, we didn’t wait long at all. The bar has great specials, $1.50 drafts, $5.00 yeunglin pitchers; they even have firefly, which appears to be hard to find in charlotte. The food is greasy but good. Fried pickles are “the thing to get,” but neither of us were that impressed. The area around the restaurant seemed really cool and like there was a lot to do nearby. I will definitely be going to The Penguin again!Pros + food, cheap drinks, good serviceCons – parking can be tight on weekend
Carraba’s has the best Italian food on earth! This is the best place if you want a change from the usual family-owned restaurant with good food but small portions and a lack of atmosphere. I’ve visited both locations (Pineville & Uptown) and the service was incomparable. The bread and oil with herbs gets you started and the food is prepared right before your eyes (with a good seat). I’ve waited tables before and, of course, am a picky diner, 2 thumbs up. This is a monthly gathering spot for my friends & me and nice date spot too.
