- KkimVIPAsheville / Western North Carolina •7 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoWe had such a wonderful experience. We were celebrating my sister's birthday and Brooke and the entire service staff did such a great job helping make it special. We had the cast iron meatball and tuna tartare for appetizers and they were delicious. We all did filets and they were cooked to perfection, how we all ordered. We had the wine service select a wine for us and it was on point for our meal and we finished it off with splitting the creme brulee and it was soooo delicious. They even gave my sister a card from the staff and a small gift card to come back! We will definitely be back!More infoNapa on ProvidencePrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Myers Park•4.6

Our drinks and food arrived quickly and despite it being busy and having several tables to service, he checked in frequently throughout our dinner to make sure if we needed anything.More infoChurch and Union - CharlottePrice: Expensive• American• Uptown•4.6
- DDelaneyCharlotte •1 review5.0Dined 4 days agoThis might have been our 5th time here and it never disappoints. In fact it’s always amazing. From start to finish. The drinks are in our opinion some of the best in Charlotte. PERIODT. And I’ve been bartending in Charlotte for years and they always impress us! The burrata is panty dropping good, and every dish we’ve ever had there was top tier. The pork chop is also really good and hard to find places that do it right. The menu changes seasonally and has the freshest farm to table ingredients and even makes the pasta in house!!! . Overall this is my top 5 restaurants anywhere. This is always the spot we tell people to try if visiting Charlotte. Perfect for date night or with friends.

- RRolandaCharlotte •3 reviews5.0Dined 7 days agoThis is my second time at Stoke & service is great. Food is always yum, they just changed the menu about 2 weeks ago! Def try to pretzel brioche and the shrimp appetizers! My friends got the pasta and i had the trout with a side of Mac & must end the night with the donut dessert. The restaurant itself was quiet but the brewery right next to it was buzzing so i felt like i was yelling to chat with my friends because we were in the booth right next to it!More infoStokePrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Uptown•4.4
- MMichaelCharlotte •28 reviews5.0Dined on Feb 1, 2025Lincoln Street Kitchen & Cocktails is one of my favorite restaurants in Charlotte and I never see it on anyone's "best of" lists for their food which is pretty surprising to me. While their drinks are terrific, and that is probably more broadly known, their food and the presentation is always impressive, from the side dishes to the mains. When plated, the food often look like a work of art and tastes even better than it looks. A couple favorites that you should definitely consider are the shrimp aquachile, the roasted bone marrow, the wagyu, duck breast and the mussels. I'll also add that they do have the best brussels sprouts in CLT, hands down. If you haven't been for dinner, make it a point to give it a try as it's well worth a visit. They have an exceptional brunch as well, if that's more your thing.More infoLincoln Street Kitchen & CocktailsPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Southend•4.7
