Best Restaurants for a Quick Bite in Dilworth

We closed out my birthday weekend with brunch at The Salted Melon Market & Eatery which wasn't our original choice but the first restaurant we had reservations for the chef hadn't shown up and no food was prepped. No I won't name the other restaurant because anybody can have a bad day. Needless to say we switched gears promptly; getting reservations through OpenTable was quick and easy. The food was great for the value, everyone seemed to enjoy their dish. (I had the shrimp & grits) Our server, Maya H was fantastic, she inquired about turkey bacon as a protein option which is not listed on the menu but the chef informed her that they did indeed have some which made my wife very happy! My only compliant is that the coffee gets cold quickly in the very pretty mugs they have. Again our awesome server brought me some more coffee in a to-go cup to add to my mug. It's the service and staff care we received that would definitely make me come back to The Salted Melon Market & Eatery.

The cocktails here are always fantastic, there is a wide selection and the bartenders are knowledgeable and adept at finding one you’ll enjoy. The pizzas are amazing but they have a number of healthier choices too. The Bar One lounge is the perfect combination of whimsical, artsy and moody elegance. It’s an elevated dining experience without being uptight. You can relax and hang out and expect great service.

I was in town to celebrate my birthday and decided on Angeline’s since it was inside my hotel. This place did not disappoint! Everything was top tier from the time I walked in until I left. My sever was Danielle and she was absolutely amazing! I would definitely recommend Angeline’s to anyone in the Charlotte area.

Good food. Pleasant waitstaff. Informal, family friendly ambiance. Hard surfaces and amplified live music in small area makes it loud in winter. Ok during nice weather when patio open. Service is slow.

Delicious home-styled cooking with a family kitchen feel. We totally enjoyed ourselves. From the service to the meal, we were well taken care of! I know the amazing Chicken is the feature here and it should be! However, I also want to shout out the Kale salad! It was crazy good! The Eagle would be great for solo dining, a meal with friends, or catching a game and a meal in the bar. Great times!
