About

Carpe Diem is a fine dining restaurant located in Charlotte, NC. We are in the historic Elizabeth neighborhood near downtown Charlotte. We have been open since 1989, but have moved twice due to downtown business developments. We are now in our third incarnation at 1535 Elizabeth Avenue. Our interiors are done in a beautiful art nouveau style. Mahogany doors, copper lighting that vines around the wood work, and marble floors are just a few details that will engage you in the surroundings. Our menu features long time favorites plus daily specials. We offer vegetarian options on our menu as well as a daily vegetarian special. We strive to use local products from our hard-working farm partners. Join us for Appy Hour and a Half. All appetizers are half price from 5:00PM-6:30PM Mon-Thurs in the bar. Tuesdays all house cocktails are 1/3 off all night. We also feature a half-price bottle of wine selection on Monday and Tuesday nights. Please call for reservations.

Great place. Go early as you can in the morning as seating is limited.
