Since we started this magazine in 2011 to right now in 2022, its safe to say the culinary landscape in Charlotte has changed dramatically. Eleven years ago, the Queen City was certainly on the rise. Our food and drink scene was up and coming. Now, a decade later, I believe we are truly a culinary leader in the South, taking up the same space as towns we used to look up to, the likes of Charleston, Atlanta, even Asheville. We hope you enjoy, and find a new favorite spot to dine in our favorite city!
