Midtown · pub food, pizza, bbq, american

Dilworth Neighborhood Grille is a bar and grill on East Morehead Street that is open until 2 a.m. every day of the week, which makes it one of the few genuinely late kitchens in this part of the city. Wings and pizza are the signature items alongside sandwiches, burgers, salads and barbecue. The room calls itself family friendly and has outdoor seating.

Uptown · japanese, japanese bbq

Cook Japanese barbecue at your table at Gyu-Kaku on East Brooklyn Village Avenue. The Charlotte restaurant offers daily happy hour food prices until late afternoon, making a daytime meal another option besides dinner. Check the branch menu before booking because its food and drink offers run on different schedules.

South End · bbq, southern

The South Boulevard Mac's Speed Shop brings barbecue, a published kids menu, and a casual room to South End. The official recurring Kids Night listing ended May 26, 2026, so this profile does not treat the former Tuesday price as a current offer.

bbq, southern

A family smokehouse and saloon on Old Pineville Road, opened in 2006 by brothers Ryan and Jim Register with their father Namon. Its own account is that the family noticed how few scratch-made kitchens Charlotte had and started collecting the family's best recipes with the idea of opening their own room. The bar side is rustic, with beer signs and sports jerseys on the wall. Our State singles out the award-winning smoked ribs and the homemade coconut pie, and says the wings are smoked over pecan wood.
