My best friend's daughter is going to be in Charlotte tonight (Monday) throught Wed afternoon. All day tomorrow she will be in a meeting and we are going to try to get together for dinner. I work at 485 and S. tryon, she will be staying at the Courtyard near the airport. Any convenient suggestions?!?!?!


Preferably some place 2 single girls can be comfortable and talk....

Cracker Barrel is about your best bet - not much out by the airport I'm afraid. LOVE the chicken fried steak there

you can never go wrong with cracker barrel.

How about the Ayrsley area? You have Salsa's, Red Lion, Wild Wing, Portofino's, and a few others right in that general area. Its 15 minutes from the airport area.

There's a development at the corner of Yorkmont and Tyvola - according to Google maps, there is a Salsarita's, a Jersey Mike's subs and YuYu's Chinese Grill there. I drive past it about once a week, but I've never driven around inside to verify that these are actually here. But with the businesses in the area and the airport and hotels, I'd think they would still be there.

I guess the OP needs to clarify "how close to the airport" she was hoping to be.

True, having grown up out in the country, 4-5 miles seems close The Holiday Inn across the street has Casey's Grill.

I really like Carolina Prime on Woodlawn at the other end of Billy Graham Parkway.
Carolina Prime Steakhouse - Charlotte, NC

Very good cuban sandwich and a large menu. Very pleasant pub atmosphere. Used to be too smoky but that's all changed with the new rules.

I've eaten at that Salsarita's. Farther up the road is Yorkmont Cafe a yummy mom and pop, casual place. As already mentioned other than Cracker Barrel and fast food places, there really isn't much that close to the airport. As you know there are lots of options near your work in Steele Creek.

I would try the Open Kitchen, if you head down Wilkinson Blvd toward uptown, it's probably only about 5 or 6 miles - A Charlotte Institution ( Italian American food) and I think it beats Cracker Barrel hands down.
