I agree with Lindsey R. that this area of 7th Street has some of Charlotte's cutest restaurants. Fig Tree, Jackelope's, and a few others along this way are all located in re-vamped houses, and it makes the dining experience much more intimate and exciting. \n\nI usually go for the red beans and rice and the fried green tomatoes appetizer, as there's not a lot in the way of veggie-friendly food...but I'm ok with what I get, as it's really, really good. \n\nAnd, since I don't eat too heavy on the entree part of the meal, I have room for the key lime pie. The key lime pie is worth the trip by itself. It's just the right tangy and just the right sweet. It's incredible.
