It was our son’s birthday and we chose to eat outside. The young man that seated us was bright and charming…so nice. The weather could not have been better and our server, Mattie was lovely. The food was excellent as always and everyone at the table bragged that theirs was the best! We look forward to our next visit to The Goodyear House!

This iS one of my most FaVes in Charlotte. Service. Vibe. A+. Always go for the Rooftop tables if weather cooperates. If you are truly a Southerner ... "git" some deviled eggs. If you are from the South, but don't like deviled eggs ... well ... Whaaat? These aRe GooD. Almost every time I'm in ... I have the Pasta special of the night. Good portion. DeliSh.
