Best Historic Restaurants in University City

The food was incredible and the personnel were so attentive. Great cocktails too and the price was reasonable. The only thing I would change: food portions… otherwise, no complaints. Will be back for another excellent experience!

This was my first time dining at the Speedway Club. I loved everything about it. Great service, atmosphere, food, and prices. I look forward to many future visits.

We had a wonderful brunch at the Asbury. The food was excellently prepared and the service was impeccable. Our server TK was a delight.

We found the Fug Tree on Open table and a travel blog recommendation and it was exactly what we were looking for! We had a fabulous time celebrating my daughter’s 23rd birthday trip from Los Angeles -- and met others celebrating their anniversaries. We shared 2 apps, a salad, 1 main, and ordered 3 drinks (2 different cocktails and a glass of wine) — and unfortunately didn’t have room for dessert which we were looking forward to — but they still brought some homemade chocolates on a plate inscribed Happy Birthday with a candle, which was lovely! The wait staff were very personable and took great care of us including splitting shared dishes without being asked. The cocktails were unique and yummy. The food was a fantastic mix of flavors and cooked to perfection. The house was tastefully decorated for the holidays. Compared to LA prices it was at least 50% less expensive than a similar experience — but we did tip a lot more than we usually would since service was fantastic and min wage in NC is about 1/4 of that in CA.

Outstanding food and service at Charlotte's number one fine dining restaurant. And the Christmas decorations in this elegant Victorian home are spectacular! There's nothing like it in Charlotte.
