So many crafts beers to choose from 44 taps to be exact!!!! The smoked wings that are finished off on the grilled are a must!!! Great drink specials, especially Tuesdays for 1/2 priced pints!
It’s one of the few bbq restaurants in the Charlotte area with the regionally appropriate sauce. Lexington dip / Western NC style.
This is the best place to eat in Charlotte! They have the best wings and pulled pork! It is our favorite place!
If you're going with a group, the platters are a great way to sample all of The Q's top-level BBQ and sides. The hardest part is picking which of the five choices to leave out!
Mark EckertJanuary 23, 2018Best damn wings (smoked/baked) in Charlotte. Good beer choices. Check out nightly specials. VERY disappointing brisket (it's boiled... Bleh!)
CLTdiningFebruary 26, 2012Seriously delicious ribs, brisket, bbq and sides. I especially like the green bean casserole, collards and mac and cheese. Don't overlook the yummy tacos though. Flying Tuna taco is darn good.
Joshua DrownJune 8, 2013The best BBQ spot Uptown. If you like a clean, crisp beer, try the Boulevard Unfiltered Wheat from Kansas City.
Their brisket is good. I also like their pork rinds. They have great beer selection.
ᴡ FleysherApril 18, 2015The brisket is awesome. The ribs are delish. The deviled eggs are da bomb and they come with pickles! It's like they knew it was for me.
Inconsistent service. Used to be a regular until prices started to spike. Still, one of the best BBQ spots in the city.
Really delicious ribs and wings. They also have good selection of beers from local breweries.
Sarah BennettMay 4, 2012Eat the mac & cheese and chicken wings (buffalo style)! And get a drink from Victoria at the upper bar... Great bartender!!
Stop here before or after a Bobcats game. Awesome nachos, great local beer selection and they validate parking!
Excellent draft beer selection. Excellent food. Owners are very friendly, staff as well. I love it here.
EVERYTHING is delicious! Great draft beer selection, wings, ribs, brisket, Mac n cheese, baked beans! Finally BBQ in uptown.
1/2 price Whiskey/Bourbon/Scotch on Wednesday's. Finally, a reason to get out on Wednesday nights.
Mitchell CurrinMarch 14, 2015Great food, great beers, great location. They will validate your parking for Hornets games.
Carmen LorenzJuly 19, 2013Best brisket taco & deviled eggs I have ever eaten. EVER. Those two things alone could make me move to Charlotte.
Olivia CampbellAugust 19, 2013Sunday brunch from 11am-2pm with $10 mimosas is always a win. Their biscuits and gravy is AMAZING!
Ivetta AbramyanJanuary 20, 2013The pork is phenomenal! Mac n cheese is delicious too. Highly recommend this place!
If you liked Mac's BBQ when it opened up, the pit master is now here and the brisket is even better than at his old place.
YesbigdaddyAugust 19, 2015Came in from my conference. I was recommended this place and the flavor touched my soul.
All of the BBQ is amazing but the sweet potato fries are a must
Pulled pork. Mac and cheese. BBQ slaw. Get this. You won't be disappointed.
Mac and cheese is awesome!!! See Jess at the bar....best bartender in Charlotte!!!
Brian StraussOctober 29, 2014A BBQ tour de force with its own unique stamp. Rather than focusing on Carolina whole hog, Queen City displays a more of a "nation's best" approach. Really loved the Super Q platter.
Brittany MarklinSeptember 14, 2013Service and kitchen are obsurd. Not friendly and takes forever and a day to get your food.
