Eat, Drink & Flamingle at McNinch House in memory of the Charlotte restaurant’s founder

Davis bought the Fourth Ward home in 1978 and turned it into a restaurant about a decade later. The 30+-year-old McNinch House is now a Classic Eats favorite among Charlotteans, which is exactly how Davis intended it.
“Our world is so fast today, when you come in here, you can slow down and really enjoy,” she told CharlotteFive’s Jennings Cool in 2019. “Everyone is busy, busy, busy. I want people to take a step back and wonder, ‘What is that place over there?’ You don’t want to miss out on something this wonderful.”
