Where is the Best Steak in Charlotte, North Carolina?
You go to the WoodShed for steak. You don’t go for white tablecloths and snooty waiters wearing tuxedos. I have been going to the WoodShed for 15 years and have never had a steak that was not cooked exactly as I ordered. The restauant does not serve alcohol, but if you brown bag your own they will give you a set-up. Last valentines day we had a minimum 2 hour wait. But there is a reason people put up with it….The steak IS that good! To avoid the wait get there really early or go on a weekday. Don’t forget your tomato and onion on wheat sandwich I love ’em. The atmosphere is rustic. Wood floors, a toy train running on tracks overhead, and booths much like you would find at a shoney’s. It is pricey. For a couple with and appetizer it could be $60 plus tip.Pros + Steak, Steak, SteakCons – wait on weekends
We visited Capital Grille tonight for the very first time, it was “restaurant week” in Charlotte so we wanted to take advantage of the three course special for $30 each. We got there early because we wanted to sit at the bar for a bit. The hostess told us our table would be ready a bit before our reservation time, but to sit at the bar, enjoy, and let her know when we were ready to be seated. We sat at the bar and I asked for a Stoli Doli, which came HIGHLY requested on this very board – well y’all were right on! Delicious (albeit a bit pricey – $12 each). I downed two of them (haha, be careful, they WILL catch up to you, not right away though, I was definitely not feeling too hot during my heavy but heavenly meal). They are strong, but excellent. Anyway, while we were at the bar, I believe it was the manager or head maitree’de came over and said “hope we didnt butcher your last name too badly when you walked in, your table is ready whenever you are.” I said to my fiancee, how did he k
Okay my date took me for my B-day and they were running that $30.00 menu around town so we went here. The place isn’t as big as it looks(small) and it can get loud. We had seats near the door which wasn’t to bad the ambiance was really nice and the food was fantastic, service was good to but to be honest when I got a look at the menu and heard about this place I felt it’s quite OVERATED!! Don’t get me wrong it’s a nice restaurant but not an OUTSTANDING restaurant and for what they charge it should be.Pros + Great Steak and service(Friendly staff)Cons – The prices-the cost of a meal here is outrageous!!
