    Great place with friendly staff. You feel welcomed when you walk in the door. Food and drinks are tasty. A lot of different margarita flavors. Great lunch specials as well.

    Carnitas de Puerco - so good!
    David L.

    We were looking for a filling lunch before boarding a flight at CLT, and Don Pedro did not disappoint. First of all, the post-Valentine's decor in the place was festive and awesome. Look at that ceiling! We were promptly seated and brought a generous serving of corn chips, mild tomato salsa, and tall ice water glasses. Whenever trying someplace new, I look for the house or chef specials, so I tried the Carnitas de Puerco. That pork was fantastic - slow roasted until tender, and then I'm guessing it is cubed and flashed fried prior to serving. Crispy and well seasoned on the outside, and tender on the inside. It was really enjoyable. The cactus salad was a little bland, and could use a something - maybe a vinegary dressing - and the rice was a little dry. However, mixed with the beans, guacamole, and sour cream, it was a very hearty delicious meal that I would absolutely order again.

    Arroz con pollo
    Billy T.

    Came here with my frisbee team so we had a ton of people. Didn't even make a reservation but they accommodated us anyway. Stuff went super smoothly- the servers gave us seemingly endless chips and salsa and had us our food within very reasonable time. The food was good, not great, but very generous in terms of portions. The arroz con pollo was very filling and I left stuffed. Overall had a great experience!

    Attractive and comfortable restaurant; however, they have a major flaw. They do NOT have menus…read more The waitress pointed to a square thingy on the table. Neither my friend or I have the capability to use it, and frankly we shouldn't have to. I'd like to look at my options in-hand. Instead, the waitress literally had to verbally tell us every single item the restaurant had since there were no menus. I'm taking a star off for this ridiculous inconvenience. The only reason I'm giving 4 Stars is because of the quality and price of the food. The music was loud and annoying for dinner. We could not hear the waitress and we had difficulty having a conversation. Perhaps these reasons are why there is barely anyone in the restaurant despite the food and drinks being excellent. Honestly, the menus and music would make me think twice about returning and has likely affected others the same way as well. It's a shame, because this restaurant has so much potential. On Wednesday they have a $30 special for a 12oz ribeye or salmon, 2 sides, and a cocktail for $30. The cocktails were beautiful and excellent. I got the ribeye, mashed potatoes, and asparagus. The ribeye was tender. However, I asked for horseradish cream sauce or chimichurri for the steak, but they didn't have either one, which is odd if they serve steaks. The mashed potatoes were seasoned to perfection and cheesy. The asparagus were cooked thoroughly and perfect. (Not the silly al dente found at some restaurants). I'll definitely come back again on a Wednesday and bring my husband (who also doesn't use barcode thingies). We live 1 mile away and would love to make this a regular spot. Can you PLEASE have some REAL MENUS ready and turn down the music ?!?!?!

    Ah it's ok…read more Mediocre at best. Typical bar food. Nothing to rave about. What I found interesting was the additional charge for substituting gin for repo in my drink when neither were top tier premium alcohol. Anywho, the salmon bites flavor was cool but the amount you get is minimal and the size of the bites are miniature. I came, I saw, I won't be back.

    As a girl born in Texas, a really good chicken fried steak is practically part of my DNA. It's one…read moreof those comfort foods I don't eat often because it's so rich--but when I see it on a menu, it absolutely catches my attention. That's exactly what drew me to The Southern Pecan in SouthPark. Here in the South, they call it country fried steak, and I'm happy to report this one did not disappoint. I met a colleague there for lunch, and everything about the experience felt easy from the start. The restaurant is located in Phillips Place, a lovely little shopping area that feels a bit polished and upscale--with shops like Orvis, Tory Burch, and even a Restoration Hardware restaurant nearby. They do offer valet parking, which is a nice touch, though honestly parking is easy enough on your own. We had reservations through OpenTable and were seated on the patio, which was absolutely delightful for this time of year in Charlotte. The weather was perfect, the setting was relaxed, and the service started off warm and welcoming right away. Now, the food. The country fried steak was beautifully cooked--crispy on the outside, tender inside, and served with creamy mashed potatoes and gravy that hit all the nostalgic notes from my Texas upbringing. I paired it with a vegetable side (I believe it was broccoli or corn), and it was a classic Southern plate done right. We also enjoyed a couple of cocktails, and to finish, we split a praline bread pudding, which felt like the perfect Southern ending to the meal--sweet, comforting, and indulgent without being overwhelming. The staff was friendly and attentive, and one of the things I continue to appreciate about Charlotte is how easy it is to connect with people. We even chatted with diners at nearby tables, which added to that welcoming, community feel that makes dining out here so enjoyable--especially for someone coming from the Bay Area. Prices felt fair for the quality, the setting, and the portion sizes, and overall the experience left a great impression. Bottom line: If you're craving a solid Southern classic like country fried steak--or just want a relaxed patio lunch in a charming part of SouthPark--The Southern Pecan is definitely worth a visit. And as someone happily eating my way through Charlotte and the Southeast, this stop was another reminder that the journey has been a delicious one.

    Basic breakfast at a reasonable price. My dad loves to come here for breakfast. I enjoy being him…read morefor a slow start to the morning. We normally get a breakfast special. The portions are good and the food tastes good. I'm not not a fan of the home fries because they normally come out room temp and don't have much flavor.

The restaurant had tables, should you desire to stay there and eat. It was clean for the most part, from what I could tell, having left my glasses in the car. I asked a couple of questions and then placed my order. It didn't take long for my food to come out. The food smelled absolutely amazing. I got the food home and started tasting everything I purchased in the pictures below. Personally, I did not care for the vast majority of the meals. The fish & chicken were so hard and dry that they were like the Sahara Desert. It was flavorless, as were the vegetables. They tasted like they were fresh out of the can. I won't be going back there again, but if I did, it would only be for the mac & cheese, potato salad, and the roll. Not that they were delicious, but they were far better than the rest of the food on the platter. It's a NO for me.
