Booked this restaurant for a special evening. Upon walking in the music was extremely loud and we realized this was not the ambiance we were expecting. Air conditioning was blowing down on us where we were freezing the entire meal. Food was very good but we decided against desert because our entire party was cold and couldn’t wait to get outside and warm up.

Service was exceptionally slow and inattentive. Once seated, it took 20 min for our server to come to the table. We ordered drinks which then took another 15 minutes. Once the food was brought to the table, there was confusion on which entree belonged to which guest. Once our meal was finished we had to waive down the waiter to bring the check. Overall, medicore experience and not compelling enough to go back.

We ate here before a show and shared our timeline with the server. When we gave our drink orders, we also placed our complete dinner orders and reiterated that we had plans. Our entrees were served over an hour after we placed our orders, which was 20-30 minutes after we finished our appetizers. The food was good, the service was lacking. We had a similar experience when eating here before a show in March. I would probably visit again, just not if I had plans for an event afterward.

The best shrimp and grits of my life! Everything we ate was delicious, the complimentary "better than a poptart" pastry was incredible and a lovely surprise! The home fries were great, but with the secret sauce they were out of the world, seriously don't skip them! My husband loved his chicken and gravy biscuit and I will never stop thinking of the shrimp and grits. Can't wait to go back! The ambiance was good, chill but fun and our server was wonderful too!

My second time here and it was absolutely amazing like the last time! Love the Prixe Fixe menu. The Filet Mignon was so tender and I was able to cut it with a butter knife. This is a great place to go for a nice date night or a group dinner!

Our Waitress cared more about talking to her other customers then providing award winning customer service. We had to ask different server for help. She was also unprepared and forgetful. Otherwise it was not a overall bad experience and we still tipped.

Food is pretty good. Love the look of the restaurant. Some of the weakest drinks I have ever had. Ordered a paper plane that was drowning in lemon juice. Waitress then recommended a signature cocktail that turned out to be straight juice. I didn’t finish either cocktail. Will most likely never return.

My Husband and I dined here for date night, and we left full and satisfied! Our server, Nico was so sweet and helpful! He recommended the cocktail of the night that was tasty. It was perfect blend of ingredients. My Caesar salad was the best I’ve ever tasted and my Husband says their lamb burger is “the best in Charlotte”. We highly recommend.

First time at this restaurant and we were happy we made the choice. Beautiful interior with funky murals and fabulous chandeliers...love it! All of our dishes were delicious and timed just right from course to course. Tried the $50 fixed and the portions were not significantly smaller than a regular appetizer or entree and a nice bargain. Our server, Jacques, was personable and engaging. We will be back!

This was a nice cozy spot. My husband ordered the Salmon which was delicious, I got the mussels which came is a very tasty sauce. The shrimp cocktail I didn't really care for, the shrimp had a funny texture. The carrot cake was delicious, and our server Colin was great.
