GREAT ramen restaurant (one of my favorite places in Charlotte). Located in the South End neighborhood about 15 minutes from my house but worth the 15 minute drive. Small place so there may be a wait. I recommend the porkbelly steamed buns and either the Fire and Ice or Miso ramen bowls.

Great brewery to visit in town. Tons of outdoor space so it never feels overly crowded if it is nice out.

Very popular brewery in town. They also host Food Truck Friday during the spring and summer seasons. Only downside to Sycamore is that it can be super crowded.
