Pair the illusion museum with a southern Uptown meal

The Museum of Illusions Charlotte identifies its location as Ally Center, 601 South Tryon Street. Choose the restaurant address around that visit rather than another museum with Charlotte in its name.

Check the museum’s entry arrangements before setting a restaurant time. For a longer dinner, finish the attraction first and give the meal its own reservation.
