Best Restaurants for Birthdays in East Charlotte

The food was amazing!! I had the fried chicken with gravy, collard greens, and yams! 10/10

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.

Owner of Orosoko here. Had a large party birthday dinner last night and everyone enjoyed themselves. Great food (the empanadas were stellar!) and the servers and hostesses did an excellent job on a very busy night. The live music was a great touch. Glad we’re neighbors!

While there are great servers, Rey is above the test. I come to Capital Grille on a monthly basis and Rey is my “go to”. The experience is NOT the same without him. He makes the entire experience memorable and I enjoy sitting in his section. He knows what I drink, typically what my order will be, and he is engaging without being overbearing. An absolute TREASURE!

We had a great experience! Made a reservation for a birthday dinner and absolutely loved the food. The service was excellent and so were the drinks. We will definitely come back next time we’re in town.
