If you’re in Charlotte and on the hunt for delicious meals that taste just as good the next day, you’re in luck! The city is buzzing not just with great dining spots but also with fantastic dishes that make for perfect leftovers. Let’s dive into some of the top picks that will have you diving back for seconds (and thirds!).
First up is the cobb salad from Pasta & Provisions, ringing in at just $13.82. It’s no wonder that one of our colleagues, after trying this delightful salad for lunch on a Wednesday, found herself craving it again by the following Friday. “I might be obsessed with this spot because I’ve ordered from here at least once a week since my first visit,” shared our reporter, and honestly, can you blame her? This cobb salad is a hearty mix that stays fresh and tasty, making it an ideal leftover option.
Another favorite making waves is The Sol Bowl from Calle Sol. “Talk about a symphony of flavor,” exclaimed one of our reporters. This lovely dish has become a must-try for its simple yet exquisite approach to flavors. Calle Sol consistently ranks high on the list of favorite local restaurants, and it’s not hard to see why. Everything from presentation to taste is carefully executed, leaving diners enchanted long after their meal is finished. Plus, if you haven’t already heard, they’re expanding to SouthPark!
If tacos are more your style, Noche Bruta has an irresistible option! The ribeye and fish tacos are described as having “found my new favorite tacos in Charlotte” status. One enthusiastic reviewer rated them 11/10, praising not just the tacos but the unique salsa trio that comes with them. For fans of strong flavors and a bit of spice, these tacos are sure to win your heart—and your taste buds!
Now let’s talk about the ultimate snack. The Brewers pretzel from Legion Brewing is a standout. With a crispy shell and a soft, pillowy inside, it’s the kind of pretzel that melts in your mouth. Pair it with some rich butter, and you have yourself a perfect munchie. This pretzel is definitely a great option for enjoying the next day—if you can resist the temptation to finish it all in one sitting!
Finally, we couldn’t resist sharing our top pick for fried rice lovers: crab fried rice from DŌZO. One editor remarked, “I think great fried rice is difficult to find in Charlotte, and the crab fried rice I had at DŌZO quickly rose to the top of my list of ‘best fried rice.’” A lovely blend of flavors and textures makes it a delightful dish to enjoy fresh and fantastic even as leftovers. And while you’re at DŌZO, don’t forget to try their mouthwatering okonomiyaki—you won’t regret it!
With so many delicious options, it’s clear that Charlotte’s food scene is thriving with dishes that are not just good on the first day but can also shine on the second (or third!). Whether you’re grabbing a quick lunch or settling in for a cozy dinner at home, these leftovers will not disappoint!
