Phat Burrito Closing On Saturday

CHARLOTTE, NC– Long lines at Phat Burrito in South End just days before it closes for good. Β The popular Tex-Mex restaurant on Camden Road has been around for almost two decades.

It’s closing on Saturday because of re-development in the area.

Customers say growth is inevitable but say it’s sad to see another part of south end’s culture go away.

“It’s just a great place, like one of the best-kept secrets in Charlotte. My mom’s been coming here for over ten years. We’re really sad to see it close down,” said Erica Marshall.

There was a line of people all afternoon trying to get their Phat Burrito fix before Saturday. Most waited about 20 minutes.
