Editor’s picks from published local guides
  • Tamales

    Find Johnny Burrito below the Uptown towers on South Tryon Street. Alongside the California-style burritos, this lunch counter makes tamales by hand. The tamales have included chicken, beef, barbecue pork and vegetable fillings. They sell out, so the tamales are the reason to arrive before the lunch rush rather than treating them as an afterthought to a burrito.

  • Mexican

    An Uptown local favorite for carnitas burritos and loaded nachos.

  • Burritos

    A build-your-own Tex-Mex counter at 301 South Tryon Street that has fed Uptown workers for twenty-seven years, open weekday lunch only. When Axios put the city's burritos on a scale, the Big burrito here came out heaviest of the lot, a foil-wrapped brick of rice, beans, meat and whatever else you point at down the line.
