Trio is one of my favorite places in Charlotte! First, this restaurant is not a chain and as soon as you walk in the door you will feel the positive ‘non-chain’ atmosphere. The food is excellent as I have been to Trio at least 60 times and have always had a positive experience. I recommend going for lunch on your first visit and trying a pizza for an appetizer (BBQ or Tomato Basil) and Charlie's One Great Chicken Sandwich for lunch. Of course, all of the items on the menu are wonderful and you will be very pleased. While eating lunch don't be surprised if Gary, one of the owners, stops by your table to check on your meal. Give Trio a try... you will be impressed.
