HaPina Eatery

This review is for HaPina – Located inside Kosher Charlotte @ the Charlotte Chabad. Wake Up Charlotte – You have no food scene! This – in fact, may actually be the best meal I’ve ever had in the Queen City. HaPina Eater is located inside Chabad of Charlotte – It’s a Glatt Kosher establishment with an incredible selection of delicious items. Wednesday – 4 February 2026 was my first visit. Yes – I was skeptical. Once I heard “Joe” formerly of Yafo joined the team to bring amazing Kosher Food to Charlotte, I just had to give it a try. Of course, I couldn’t help myself – I had to overindulge and order the Pastrami Burger and the Schnitzel. Finally found a place in the CLT that does French Fries correctly. The Israeli Salad was amazing. I’m truly not joking – this place was incredible. I can’t wait to return next week to try some of the steak options. Want to try the amazing Pastrami Sandwich as well; Yes – they use proper Deli mustard; not that nasty yellow mustard. Chef “Joe” really blends a combination of Israeli with some of your Ashkenazi favorites. You don’t have to be Jewish to enjoy this food! A+ - Plenty of Parking in the Chabad Parking Lot; - Service was excellent! Couldn’t leave without trying their delicious dessert menu as well. Can’t wait to come back! B”H! – Seating was comfortable! Very quiet and relaxing vibe inside!

Phenomenal food and great variety. The best beef bbq I have ever had. Stopped by twice during a work trip to get it. Order ahead and pick up is convenient. You can also order and eat there. Great gem in Charlotte.
