    The service was top notch and overall the food was excellent. Only nitpicks we have is some of the meat was overcooked. Also this location is smaller than some other locations we had visited in the past with less options at the cold bar, so if you are expecting the massive ones you may have seen on social media this is not that. But what was there was absolutely top notch. Only advisory thing i would mention is that it is downtown Charlotte. Traffic and parking will be an issue. Make sure to plan timing accordingly. There is valet on site

    The best restaurant that I have been to in awhile. I am from NYC and it reminds me of a place you’d find in the West Village. Excellent food, cocktails, customer service and aesthetics.

    Such a wonderful dining experience in Uptown Charlotte. The food was absolutely delicious, the atmosphere was lively and sophisticated, and the spooky Halloween décor added such a fun and unique touch. 🎃✨ The music was fantastic, creating the perfect energy for a night out, and our waitress was attentive, friendly, and exceptional throughout the evening. A beautiful combination of great food, atmosphere, and service. Definitely a restaurant worth visiting—we can’t wait to return!
