Huntersville restaurant lists by food: wings, pizza, Mexican, burgers, sushi, breakfast, desserts and patios, each alphabetical and checked Oct. 12.

Last checked Oct. 12, 2026. Refreshed every three months.

Huntersville’s restaurants are concentrated around its two Interstate 77 exits. Birkdale Village, Birkdale Place and the Northcross area surround Exit 25 at Sam Furr Road; the Rosedale area, Gilead Road and Reese Boulevard surround Exit 23. Downtown has a smaller cluster along Old Statesville Road and Maxwell Avenue.

Each list below is alphabetical, with every place’s address, its hours as it publishes them, its phone number and a link to its own website. They are not rankings or recommendations, and nobody paid to be on them. Each list is refreshed every three months, and chains appear in alphabetical order alongside local restaurants, with their own location pages linked.

How we made these lists. The places come from OpenStreetMap records inside Huntersville’s town limits, the same data that feeds our local directory, checked against each place’s own website on Oct. 12, 2026. Places that OpenStreetMap missed were added when their own websites, or Birkdale Village’s directory together with their own sites, gave a Huntersville street address. A restaurant can ask to be added or corrected through our contact page.
