    It was amazing at all levels. Our server Michael, was kind and recommended great options. The filet mignon is the best I`ve ever tried and I´m from Argentina. The crab cake, too, was excellent. The valet parking guy was nice and provided great service, and so was the host. We´ll come back, for sure.

    The experience was pleasant, and the staff demonstrated both friendliness and professionalism. However, I am somewhat disappointed as our overall expenditure exceeded the amount we initially paid through Groupon.

    We had a wonderful anniversary dinner at Dressler’s. Food was served within a reasonable time. We both loved everything ordered which included soup, main course, sides, and coffee/dessert. Will definitely go back again.

    Dressler’s never disappoints. The best calamari around and delicious filet, always perfectly prepared. Tried the Mac and cheese and it was divine! This is one of our favorite Charlotte restaurants for a reason.

    While the experience was fine, it didn’t quite justify the cost. The food was good—flavors were balanced, and ingredients seemed fresh—but nothing stood out. Service was friendly and efficient, but not particularly memorable. The biggest drawback was the pricing. For a meal that was slightly above average, the cost felt excessive. While I appreciate quality, I expected a bit more in terms of flavor or service to match the premium price. Overall, it is a decent spot if you’re looking for a solid meal, but if you’re expecting something exceptional for the price, you might be disappointed.
