    Our server was very friendly and attentive, the person bringing out the food got it wrong every course, the water refills were dizzying - they definitely earned their tips. Please just leave the pitchers on the table or get larger glasses.. I love a good water refill but every 5 seconds was too much. The steak was delicious and everything else was fair. Not good, not bad. We had Sausage board (burnt bread-not wood fired but BURNT), Shrimp Cocktail, the Tuna and the crab cake apps, all fair - none tasty or particularly outstanding about any of them. Mains included Steak Frittes, the Pasta and Filets. Steaks were delicious. Desserts were the Carrot Cake, Chocolate Cake, Oreo Cheesecake and Brownie Sundae. All good, Brownie was a standout. The sides were sharable sizes. Great ambience and you could see that others appreciated an "upscale" restaurant among the fast food joints. We will not be back. It did not wow us for the price. There are plenty of better steak places in Charlotte with a little more of a drive.

    Another one of our favorite restaurants. We like to sit at the high top tables in the bar area. Nelson took great care of us! He makes the best Four Roses Manhattan! We always start with the mussels and they are a hit every time. All of the staff are friendly, and Charlene is our favorite!

    Our daughter has been there several times, and gave us a gift card that we used to celebrate our anniversary. My wife ordered filet mignon and I had Alaskan halibut. Both were excellent. We had salads, Caesar for her, wedge for me, and shared a side of mashed potatoes. Outstanding, but my wife tasted my wedge salad, and said it was a bit better than the Caesar. All in all, a terrific experience. And the service was exceptional.

    Our reservation was for a special event (‘Par-Tee’) the Porter’s House held celebrating the PGA Championship being held here in Charlotte. It was fun and well orqanized, with a pop-up putt putt course outside, 2 drink tickets provided per person (including some featured cocktails) and some tasty small bites (sliders, shrimp, pickled veggies) for the $45 admission charge. The staff was friendly, the service efficient, and we joined 2 other couples and all really enjoyed the afternoon and unique event.
