Uptown puts dinner among Charlotte’s offices, hotels, theaters and arena blocks. Seafood on East Fifth, Southern food on North Tryon and a diner on East Trade serve different versions of a center-city visit. Pick the meal that suits the day, then compare the address with the event, hotel or meeting that brought you here.

Seafood in central Uptown
