“Just finished our first meal. It was delicious and we will definitely come back. Thank you Phoebe V. for great service and a great meal.”
“Food and service amazing However : Server totally ignored me and only talked to my daughter. Also we were asked to leave when they started to get busy. Music was loud and even my twenty something old daughter thought it was awful. Those things would prevent me from going back or recommending it to anyone else”
“Tyler took care of us. My Celiac situation was handled with attention. The food came out fast and hot, and my husband and granddaughter loved the Keylime pie. Very much recommended and we will certainly go back.”

“I just had to share my experience at this amazing restaurant found out a local food group.,I'm so glad I decided try it. Let me tell you was blown away! I order the lamp gyro, the meat was so flavorful and juicy - definitely no dry meat here. It's really difficult to find good Mediterranean food in Florida, but in this place haa totally mastered it. The owner of the restaurant are such lovely people, and if you haven't been there yet, you're seriously missing out.”

“Unos de los mejores restaurantes que he visitado, la atención, la comida todo perfecto. Volvería todos los fines de semana si pudiera.”
“Wow! Wow! Wow! We had the most spectacular experience tonight! We ordered the wedge salad to spilt, the Salmon entree and a feature consisting of a ribeye and a crab cake! The flavors surpassed our expectations and every bite we were looking at each other like “what?!” Compliments to the chef and to our server, Peter. Trust us, GO AND ASK FOR PETER! We will be back and we’ll be dreaming about our meal till then!”

“Five stars for Jillian! We visited the rooftop bar and she absolutely made our evening. From the moment we sat down, she was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming without ever hovering. Her cocktail recommendations were spot-on — she clearly knows the menu inside and out — and she timed everything perfectly, even as the bar filled up. It’s rare to get service that feels this effortless and personal at a busy spot. Jillian is a true professional and a huge asset to this place. We’ll be back, and we’ll be asking for her section.”

“The restaurant was a great vibe. Food was yummy. Definitely would go here again. It's a lil loud so if you come here to talk, this probably isn't ideal depending on where you sit. The music can be a bit lively. We also had hookah. Good drinks. I don't remember how much my bill was so I can't comment on price. Where my chair was kinda put me in the middle of the walkway so people kept bumping me in the head. So maybe I wouldn't sit there again but nevertheless still a good time. 🤣”
“Felt like i was in the village in NYC! Food was awesome! The best Italian I’ve had in a while! The homade pastas were to die for! Out of short rib but had chicken piccata and bronzino! So so good! The Burrata was awesome and the oysters, yellowtail and were so fresh and the sauces were key! Need to know how to make them! Tiramisu was yummy! Wine selection was great! Our server was so fun and loved the atmosphere! We will be back! Worth the car ride from the lake! Don’t forget the charcuterie! Lol”
“Belissima! Vibes and decorè, unmatched! Its sexy, sleak, and a lil sultry. The back lighting at night is gorgeous. It creates a very intimate vibe. The food is small plates so don't belive you're going to feast. My only draw back was flavor. When it said SPICE I was expecting an indulgent amount of SPICE with unique flavor compliments. Being internationally inspired I guess I was reaching. I will say that the food presentation was beautiful.”
“Definitely a special occasion spot. Their wine collection is exceptional, which is to be expected. I initially ordered a Bordeaux that I did not care for and we were able to order another bottle with no issues. My only complaint is we asked to keep the price comparable and they sent a $20 more expensive bottle. I ordered the filet and it was cooked perfectly. We were there for a birthday and they sent a complimentary champagne flute for all 9 of us in our party. Amazing. I like the interior of this location more than the others. But no exterior compares to the Dilworth location.”
“Most authentic Greek food In Charlotte. All made fresh and always very clean. Will be back again soon!”

“This place is fantastic! Went there last night for a networking meeting and was thoroughly impressed. The food, decor, and the live band were so great! Will definitely come back in the future just to hang out, meet for business, or to grab a great bite. The staff was so nice and had me in stitches! A true must visit!”
“Enjoyed an excellent meal at Link & Pin! Delmonico steaks were perfectly prepared and the sides and appetizers were all excellent, as was the service. And the bread appetizer was perhaps the best part of the meal! Everyone should order it, as it's freshly prepared and quite exquisite. Only qualm was the noise level. Our table was sandwiched between two business dinners, and the dueling conversations were quite boisterous. Simply carrying on a conversation at our table of four was challenging.”
“I just can’t talk enough about how good of a server Tazz is I think she’s there best server yet there best server in a long time she so sweet and super patient (not to mentionThe she’s very easy on the eyes , I’m sure customers love her I’ll be back just for the amazing experience tazz and the cook gave us I just wanna say thank you 💚”
“Went for breakfast and ordered a Bacon, Egg & Cheese Biscuit. The food was good, the cashier was great, and all in all, it was a nice visit. I don't normally eat in restaurants nowadays, but I had to treat myself. I'm glad I did. I definitely recommend this McDonald's.”
“You can order via app at table, via kiosk, or at counter. I order at the counter. The young lady was polite, yet very quiet.
You get a table tent with a number on it. They don't give you a cup. They bring the drink out with the food. So, if'n you're thirsty, hang tight, no drink machines in the dinning area. So if you run out of drink, hang tight, you'll have to wait for someone behind the counter to get more.
I used to enjoy going into McD's, yet after today, I'll reserve comments until after i eat.
I got the Big Breakfast with Hotcakes. Everything was hot and actually delicious. For $9.72, it was very good. I believe I'll return.
By the way, the design of the parking lot and drive-thru is a bit different. You are pretty much guaranteed to have to walk thru the drive-thru line.”
“A great place for a Friday night dinner….delicious seared flounder with lentils & asparagus 😋”
“Our family had many lunches here, the quality of the food was consistent, we were greeted with big smiles every time, the restaurant & restrooms were clean. We loved the food here & will definitely be back. Keep up the good work!”
“Visiting Charlotte from New Hampshire, but had scouted out this place before we came. Interestingly enough, it appeared on the list of recommended places from our Airbnb hosts as well. We are very into the farm to table movement, big time Farmers market shoppers ourselves as well. The staff was very friendly, and more importantly, knowledgeable about the menu. Everything was excellent. They were very helpful in accommodating a honey allergy, even whipping up an alternative dressing for the salad we ordered. For the record, the kale salad we had was beyond exceptional. I am not exaggerating when I say that is was the best salad I have eaten in my 65 years! Recommended unconditionally. A must-stop for our next trip to Charlotte.”

“I’d give 10 stars for atmosphere if I could. This isn’t a typical coffee house. There are so many nostalgic pieces from the 80s-90s that take you down memory lane. The music and design layout is such a chill vibe you could see yourself hanging out for an hour or so.Definitely,come visit Archive☕️✊🏾💕”
“Edit: Cashier has been a lady that's much more pleasant when I go in now, very nice place!
Delicious and quick food at a good price, my main complaint though is the bearded guy at the cash register is always so unpleasant and unfriendly. I'm not expecting 5 star service, but he doesn't even say hello or thank you or look at you when you're ordering, and sounds hostile the whole time. The rest of the staff is so nice and friendly, so I have no idea why they put him of all people at the cash register.”
“This is my "Go To Place" while taking my lunch. For convenience, I recommend that you order through Clover prior to pickup. I absolutely love the food, readiness and customer service each time I dine here. Estella and staff go above and beyond to ensure that your order is ready in a timely manner. My food recommendations would be: 10pc Wings Garlic Parmesan and Strawberry Hot (36 flavors to choose from0, Avocado Chicken Wrap w/ Pasta Salad, Double Cheeseburger combo w/ fries,”
“Abugida is the best Ethiopian in Charlotte, the food is made fresh everyday. The staff is always friendly and accommodating. If you haven't tried Ethiopian, they will help you with the menu. This food is amazing and their injera is always fresh and delicious. Always order coffee!”
“The vibe is awesome the good was amazing it was fresh and just the perfect amount of. The drink was great, the back patio was super quaint and cute perfect for a girls night or date night the indoor bar was cute and the outdoor patio was great for a dinner or brunch with friends.”
“My wife and I had dinner at the Charlotte location this evening. We had great service from our server Noah, who was very quick to take our drink order and provided attentive service for our entire dinner. We both ordered a Chimichangas (my wife had the chicken and I had the beef). Both were delicious, well seasoned and served hot. (fwiw) noted the staff were sweeping and cleaning the restaurant tables quickly, after a table turned.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This place has it all! Mondays are a blast with Music Bingo – the perfect way to kick off the week. The drinks are top notch 🍹, the menu is phenomenal (seriously, everything we tried was delicious 😋), and the energy is always on point. Come the weekend, the dance floor comes alive 💃🕺 with parties that keep everyone moving. A spot that nails food, fun, and music – can’t wait to come back!”

“We held my daughter’s celebratory graduation dinner from UNCC at Barcelona Wine Bar this past weekend, and it was absolutely perfect! I planned the event far in advance with Tiana, their Sales & Events Manager, and she was thorough, communicative and handled it all like a pro, including a last minute change to the menu that she texted to me (smart). She arranged for printed menus with the event name (lovely detail!) and because they can’t include mussels, her favorite, on an event menu (understandable), they surprised us and sent her some anyway on the house. Our main server (I’m blanking on her name so sorry we love you so much!!) and our bar servers, Morgan and Justin (who we kept busy 🤣), should win personality of the year awards for their wit, humor, charm and skill (for instance, Morgan wowed us with his tapas plate stacking ability and made sure to holler in my Mama’s good ear when he spoke 🤣). It was great fun, and the food was DELISH!! Highly recommend for events and also looks like a fun place to just hang out!”
“Fresh food, locally sourced, large menu— can’t go wrong, everything’s delicious! Great for couples, families (kids). We’ve been several times and always had phenomenal service and a delicious meal (Bbq, wings, favorite starter’s *bacon wrapped jalapeños, and best coleslaw ever!”

“I haven't been to Ruth Chiris in over 2 years. I had a Taste for the stuffed chicken breast but I ordered the ribeye and yes it was tender, along with well done as I ordered. I was pleased with Roberto, the waiter and the food. My daughter treated me out for passing PN program and everything was good and satisfying.”
“We had a fantastic dinner here and loved our server, Kelsey! She was super nice, informative, and we enjoyed chatting with her. The food was next level. While we’ve been here before, this time we tried the restaurant week menu and each upgraded our entrees to the chefs choice. Delicious doesn’t cover it! Don’t skip on adding a side of lobster Mac n cheese. You won’t regret it :)”
“A night to remember at The McNinch House 🌹✨ Growing up, my Dad wasn’t just an industrial engineer—he was a hobby chef with serious skills. He spent his childhood in restaurants, and at home, he brought that magic to our table. I didn’t grow up eating “normal kid food,” and to this day, he’s the best cook I know. My love for food? 100% from him. The McNinch House has been on my list for over a decade—and let me tell you, it was worth the wait. Executive Chef Eric O’Connor, who joined just a year ago, blew us away. We had the 4-course tasting menu (I truly don’t know how people survive the 5-course!), and every dish was a standout: *Corn & Clam Chowder – the cream is everything *Bone Marrow – best I’ve ever had *Lamb Lollipops (my husbands) – best I’ve ever had; perfectly cooked *Pork Wellington (my husbands) – the basil took it over the top *Snapper Succotash – the bacon made it *Crème Brûlée – perfectly done From the surprise oyster starter (cool presentation served in a shell over ice) to the palate-cleansing sorbet between courses, every detail was thoughtful and special. Chef Eric personally served our entrée—how cool is that? The service was impeccable, with a main server and 2-3 others helping throughout. At the end, they even handed me a freshly picked rose from their garden. 💐 We dined in a historic 1800s home filled with charm, and afterward strolled through the garden—flowers everywhere, twinkle lights, fountains, and the Charlotte skyline in view. I had to ask for the chef’s autograph and a photo—he’s just that good. We told him he deserves a star, and he smiled and said, “We’re on the list.” So now I’m shouting from the rooftops: let’s help make that Michelin star happen! He absolutely deserves it. Thank you, Chef Eric and the entire McNinch House team, for one of the most enchanting, romantic, and memorable meals I’ve ever had in Charlotte. The whole evening—2.5 hours of pure joy—was not just dinner, it was an experience. ❤️”
“You don’t know what you’re missing out on if you haven’t used Bakery Atelier! This cake looked amazing, and even better - taste was exquisite! Highly recommend for any gatherings you’re planning in the future. We will definitely be ordering again! And you talk about creativity - look at the ice cubes in the photos (in comments)!!”

“We can’t say enough good things about Lang Van. The food is exceptional, the menu is extensive, and the environment and service are truly special. There’s a reason the walls are lined with holiday cards sent by longtime regulars: you feel like part of the family by the time you leave. Lang Van is a Charlotte gem.”
“I have a son who is allergic to peanuts and tree nuts, and we’ve always been looking for a store where we could get a cake for his birthday, or for any of our birthdays, really. And for the first time, we went to this shop, and it was amazing. My son ate his cake, and we had no issues with cross-contamination or anything like that. So I highly recommend it to anyone who has any kind of allergy, whether it’s to peanuts, tree nuts, or seeds.Thank you for making this type of cake ❤️🫶🏼”
“My friends and I visited last week and instantly fell in love with the Romeo and Katrina as well as their food. They were so hospitable and accommodating. Everything is made fresh and with love, even the juice was superb. We will be visiting again. The food was delicious”
“Chuck’s Grill, I came for breakfast… and almost needed a nap afterward! 😄 The food was absolutely delicious, the biscuit was soft and buttery, the bacon was cooked just right, and the egg sandwich hit the spot. The potatoes were crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and disappeared faster than my willpower.
This was my first visit, but it definitely won’t be my last. Great food, friendly service, and prices that don’t make your wallet cry. If you’re looking for a classic breakfast done right, Chuck’s Grill is the place to be. Just don’t blame them if you leave planning your next visit before you’ve even pulled out of the parking lot! 🍳🥓🥔”
“Maya’s was fantastic as our server! We had never been before and she made the experience more than amazing! The entire meal was fantastic, fresh meats, seafood and vegetables. Delicious broth for th pots. Definitely worth the money and we will most definitely be back again! Also thanks for the birthday dessert and the fun (yet embarrassing song)😂”
“Went her for a birthday breakfast for my son's 17th birthday! It was great! The food and drinks were amazing! The staff was very nice and welcoming! We will definitely be back!”
“We've become big fans for Brewers At 4001 Yancey. Nice food menu and the quality is top notch. A large, diverse selection of beers with options to suit any palate. Most notably, it's evident by the staff that they place a strong emphasis on customer service and experience. Very friendly and always helpful with recommendations. It's a huge space with plenty of room inside and out. Well worth a visit in Charlotte's LoSo neighborhood.”
“This may have been the BEST meal I’ve ever eaten!! The Gold Lamb Chops were cooked perfectly and the drinks were better than that! I took my daughter and neice here for a girls night out. They did not disappoint! We will definitely be back!!”
“This was such a fun birthday night for my bestfriend! All the actors were great (especially the hidden ones in the crowd)! Kept us laughing and kept us guessing who the murderer could be all the way up til the very end! Food was also very good. Will absolutely be back for a new case to solve soon!
This was in uptown so keep that in mind when looking for parking in advance. There are some paid lots around the area.”

“Omg, food is AMAZING! I’m vegan and this is by far the best vegan food I’ve had in a long time from a restaurant. The owner/chef came out to bring me my food and she is so sweet. It made me happy to experience her and her food. She has gained a forever customer and I wish nothing but the best for her and her business.”

“Great cocktails! Some of the most inventive cocktails in Charlotte. No real food, some bar snacks. I do recommend the fancy cheese-its though, they are tasty. The drink menu rotates, try the clarified milk punch.”
“delicious hamburgers, Great customer service, very intimate dining,,”
“On Friday 8/23, we came to The Crunkleton on a recommendation for my daughter’s birthday and we were NOT disappointed! From the moment we walked in the atmosphere and the staff were wonderful! We had Cole as our server and regardless of how busy it was that night, he made us feel like we were his only priority. He was very knowledgeable about your massive spirit selections and I mean massive! The food was fantastic and cooked to perfection. We got the Really Good Burger and let me tell you, we said medium and it was on point! It was very well seasoned which is rare when you go out to restaurants. Then to top off the night, my daughter got the beignets with the cold brew icing, WOW! I am a sweets person and these with that icing just WOW! Cole even put a candle on the rim of the dish because it was her birthday! So, you have our business any time we are in Charlotte! I just can’t say enough about our experience!!! You have a great place, amazing food, a wonderful spirits collection, and definitely not last or least a fantastic server in Cole!! Thank you for making my daughter’ s birthday and my first time in Charlotte such a great memory!!!”
“We had such a great experience at Sanctuary Bistro! The food was absolutely amazing and Jennifer was very helpful with recommendations. We will definitely be back!”
“Went last weekend and had a beautiful time. It’s perfect for date night. They created amazing cocktails for us and they were literally perfect. Fresh ingredients you can taste, like no other bar I’ve been to. Love it.”
“Western PA native; moved to Concord, NC in 2023. I had heard about it and seen it on social media. Love it! My Dad and I visited it today! #yinzer”
“Outstanding food, service, and ambience. First time coming and we’ll definitely come back; the ceviche, octopus, gambas, and beet salad were simply scrumptious 😋 10/10”
“From the ambiance, the attentive staff, exquisite food and drinks the evening was 1st Class. Not stodgy or overbearing but our needs were anticipated. The food was beyond! Thank you!”

“Food and drinks were fantastic. Get the steak bao buns and short rib pot stickers! Toni was our server and she was amazing! Great atmosphere, absolutely recommend.”
“Recomiendo la comida, es muy deliciosa. Pero el servicio de las personas es muy malo en Charlotte en Raleigh son excelentes, en Charlotte la única persona con don de servicio, es el chico, las mujeres no.”
“we had a retirement celebration at Harry's. Highly recommend. Everything was excellent. Thank you Harry's for making the celebration a success.”

“We had an excellent experience. The food was really good. Really nice dining area and outside seating. Absolutely loved it.”
“The food was very good, specially drinks could stand to be upgraded to a more well rounded selection with less martini styled drinks. Valet parking is a plus! The music was loud and prevented a lot of table talking.”
“I wish I had grabbed the bartender’s lady name! She was absolutely amazing, her customer service was beyond - she was checking out from her shift as we got there and I asked for fireball shots she overheard and said I make a mean combo that tastes even better than that, made it and WOW did she deliver!!!! Best whiskey fireball dupe ever. The music was amazing I was singing the whole entire time with good old salsas, and onto the best part, the FOOOOOOD! Amazing, extremely tasty and so muuuuuuch flavor. Not ran down Mexican cheap tasting, the taste was A++++++++++ definitely a new fave spot. Try it! You wont be disappointed.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Catalina Kitchen + Bar in Charlotte delivered an incredible happy hour tonight. The specials did not disappoint. The crispy Brussels sprouts were a standout with a huge serving and layers of flavor that kept getting better with every bite. The giant heap of Parmesan fries was exactly that… a mountain of hot bistro fries with rich parmesan and truffle aioli. Easily enough for the table. The roasted beets came in a smaller, more delicate portion but were packed with flavor and felt really thoughtfully prepared. The California deviled eggs were beautifully presented and came as two, just right for a quick bite. The atmosphere was lively with an earthy feel and an open view of the kitchen that added to the experience. The staff was amazing from start to finish. Overall an excellent visit and absolutely worth stopping by, especially during happy hour Monday through Friday from 3 to 6 pm!”
“Prime Fish is the very best for sashimi that you will find anywhere in NC. The quality they use is just superior to all others. It literally melts in your mouth. The chefs are genius and pure artists.”
“Yesterday I organized a dinner for my family, food was very delicious and tasty. My all family told me that their staff was very professional and kind. Highly Recomended💯”
“Very well maintained restaurant with delicious food. I enjoyed the chicken tikka masala with butter naan. The rice was aromatic and the mango lassi was delicious!”
“Exceptional Mexican food. My carnitas taco was A+ & the tortillas were about as authentic as they get 👍🏻 I was skeptical trying another Mexican restaurant & was pleasantly surprised 👍🏻”
“Tania did a great job and explained the meñu very well to us and made sure we were taken care of will be back.”
“I got the Korma and it was the best thing I’ve ever had in my life. I couldn’t put my spoon down. It is so flavorful and delicious. Just keep in mind they add a lot of spice. I can handle spice and I did number three spicy and it was pretty dang hot. I also ordered chicken curry, which I was not as much a fan of as I am accustomed to a more creamy type broth consistency. The flavors were yummy though again super spicy. The Korma though. Omg. I found my new spot”
“❤Brian is amazing. This place feels like family. Amazing food, wonderful server, Jodi, dessert to die for! Go and feel at home!”
“Great food and service favorite ramen is the spicy vegan with fried chicken!”
“Always great service and amazing food. James is such a great server! The GOAT”
“My son and I were in the area and had never tried Haitian food. We are so glad we made the decision to stop. The owner and his wife were so friendly! We got the stewed goat with black rice and griot with red beans and rice. There was absolutely no way to eat all of that food in one sitting. We were told it would be as good or better the following day, and that was no lie. We could taste the love in the food. The gentleman was even kind enough to warn us if something would be spicy. We got a plate to go for a friend who was familiar with Haitian cooking, and he said it was some of the best he's had. High praise from him. Hes usually very critical about carribean cuisine. Will definitely return when we are in the area again.”
“Absolutely wonderful food we love taking our family here when in visiting!! 🤌🏼”
“We went to Dressler’s tonight for my husband’s Birthday. We had never been but wanted to try it since we loved their old Dogwood concept. Michelle was our waitress and truly made the evening so special. She was so knowledgeable around the menu and so attentive and fun. The food was exceptional. I had the waygu flank special and he had the 16oz ribeye. The shrimp appetizer was a great way to start and the apple crisp was a perfect ending to the meal. We were so excited to see the manager from the old Dogwood concept working there. She is so great too. Thank you for having such an amazing space that can make nights so memorable.”
“The Food was the best. Staff were amazing. Our Server Ameirah was the bomb !It was worth the 4 hr drive.”
“When visiting Charlotte, my husband and I came here on a Friday night and absolutely loved hearing Justin Mintun! He’s an extremely talented musician with an incredible voice. He is also super personable. Our bartender, who I think was Mark (sorry, my memory is terrible) was amazing. He’s so passionate and we are routing for him in all the competitions he’s in! He crafted the recipe for the mezcal drink that I had and wow. The thyme, mezcal, grapefruit and elderflower all went so well together.
Finally, we loved the peach and prosciutto flatbread. It was flavorful and cooked perfectly. We can’t wait to come back!”
“Man… this place is hands down probably the best dining experience I’ve ever had in charlotte. The atmosphere, service, plating, menu etc are all very very impressive. The MOST impressive was Tommy and his extensive knowledge in wines and sparkling wines.. he took our table on an incredible journey pairing delicious wines and trivia with the exquisite dishes that Will and the boys prepared. I personally had the bison bolognese with handmade pasta and he brought an insanely awesome Cab out to pair it with- Dude was cruising around casually in a t-shirt absolutely OWNING his craft. Not only was my pállete entertained but we also learned a shit-ton about the wine and its origins. For the first time in 10+ years I didn’t feel like I was caught up in a get-in/get-out high dollar dining scheme- rather, it was an amazing immersive experience. If I thought I could pay double just to experience last night over again I would make multiple reservations to do so. The current menu and staff as well as management is absolutely crushing and impressing. I don’t see how this place doesn’t have a solid 5 star rating. Keep it up please! I will be back very soon.”
“Excellent Food and Excellent Service. Thank you to our waiter Owen! Karen and Carol!”

“We had an AMAZING experience at Cowfish Bar and Grill!! The food was delicious BUT our waiter, Jevon, was exceptional!! He gave great recommendations and he was personable. The birthday parade Jevon led was entertaining and put a big birthday smile on my husbands day! Thank you Jevon!!!”

“It is not what appears on the menu that makes this an incredible diner. I witnessed a lot of interaction between repeat customers and the entire staff. It gives the place a nice 'home style' feel. The food speaks for itself, fabulous for the price. Always pleased with what I order there.”
“What a cozy little place to go! on Valentines Day! I loved the "where everybody knows your name" feeling. I went at brunch (11:30am) with my family. My chicken salad sandwich was delicious. Service was good, we were well looked after. This place feels so at home. Definitely going back soon”

Everything was correctly prepared, nicely packaged, and clearly labeled, which made unpacking at home super easy. A special shoutout to the cashier, Carol, who was incredibly friendly and helpful. Her great attitude made the whole experience even better. We’ll definitely be back soon. Highly recommend! 👍”
“We LOVE Jersey Mike's food and their crew! The food is always superior and the crew is so friendly and they take such good care of us. We are there every week and they cater to a garlic allergy Mark's mother has. They make everyone feel like family. I highly recommend that you stop by and pay them a visit, Tell them Kathy & Mark sent you! You will not be disappointed. Donny the manager and his crew run a tight ship and they will take great care of you! Keep up the great work everyone. We appreciate your hard work! God bless & keep you & yours... Kathy & Mark”
“I had lunch today with my friends here and the food was delicious and genuine. It's not easy to find a restaurant that has real Cuban food. My wife and I were born in Cuba and miss this kind of food. She had the 'vaca frita' and I had 'masas de puerco'. Everything was perfectly cooked, juicy and tender with genuine flavor. The mojitos were also delicious. Our compliments to the chef and staff. If you want to taste real Cuban food, we highly recommend this restaurant.”

“Kelly, our server was absolutely fantastic - The Best Server I have seen in any restaurant - 5 STAR Service - She did a wonderful job. However, the food quality was not up to par this evening. I had the Surf & Turf and the Lobster was overcooked. Another party had a Hamburger and was not satisfied with the quality & taste. The manager came over and took care of everything very professionally for which we very much appreciated his involvement. For that reason, we will come back to Firebirds in Stonecrest again.”
“We had a wonderful experience from start to finish! Amazing food and the best service from Allyssa for Sunday brunch! She went out of her way to be friendly and knowledgeable about the menu! Even brought us a special treat for our birthdays! We highly recommend this great restaurant and will definitely be back!”
“Salutations! What a wonderful evening we had that was elevated by our server, Carli. She has wonderful decorum and carries herself and represents Stir in the highest light. Carli and the exquisite service that she delivered amplified our experience— a rare quality to be found. The food was delicious and elegantly presented and served. The artisan ice extrapolations, performed table side - again by Carli- offered an elegant and entertaining prologue to the divine Stir Old Fashion. Cuisine and atmosphere were delish. Thank you Carli for the above and beyond and fabulous personality and wit. See you again soon!”
“One of my favorite restaurants when in Charlotte! The food is always delicious. I highly recommend the salmon and a glass of champagne. For dessert, the chocolate chip cookies were amazing! They are served warm and you can tell they are made in house. The atmosphere is lovely, and the staff is always wonderful. On a rare occasion my salmon was not well done, and our server quickly made sure that was resolved. I usually do a monthly stay in Charlotte and i always seem to stop at RH, because they are consistently great!”
“Celebrated my birthday yesterday with my husband. We haven’t been in years but it’s just as we remembered on point. Everything and everyone was exceptional. From the time we walked through the door we were greeted with professionalism and a smile! Our waitress Alaura set the bar of what a waitress does. She was bubbly and was helpful with making our choices for dinner. The manager on duty even came by to see how our food and experience was. Highly recommend Sullivan’s.”
“My wife gave me two choices for an early dinner; PF Chang's or Firebirds. I chose Firebirds. We arrived right on time but ended up waiting at the hostess desk for an unusually long time because no hostess was there. We saw a waitress in the front of the restaurant, a couple of guys working the bar, and a waitress a couple of booths down in the dining room. They all noticed we were waiting but went about their business. A hostess finally arrived and seated us in the back of the dining room. Despite it being cold outside it was very comfortable inside. After sitting down the first thing we noticed was how dirty the table was. It looked like the dishes of the people there before us were picked up and the table hadn't even been wiped off. There were bread crumbs all over the table. When our waitress came we asked for the table to be cleaned, which she did. She wiped it with a wet cloth and then dried it too. After that te rest was good. We ordered drinks and our meal. We were offered bread which was hot and fresh. The drinks were great and the food was great as usual. No hostess and a dirty table were very uncharacteristic of Firebirds. Hopefully, they were just having an off day.”

“This is my second visit. I enjoyed one of my favorite classic sandwiches: The Rueben. Delicious. The Chop Cheese is on special like it was two weeks ago the first time I was here. The Chop Cheese is out of this world. The fries and sides are too notch and the bagels are so good you'll slap your mama!”
“Maya’s was fantastic as our server! We had never been before and she made the experience more than amazing! The entire meal was fantastic, fresh meats, seafood and vegetables. Delicious broth for th pots. Definitely worth the money and we will most definitely be back again! Also thanks for the birthday dessert and the fun (yet embarrassing song)😂”
“Such a cool hidden spot! They have an incredible wine selection and such a lowkey vibe with unpretentious indoor and outdoor seating. This has absolutely become a regular spot for my friends and I to gather.
Pro tip: if you go on a Sunday, you can easily walk over to Bird Pizzeria and grab yourself a to-go Caesar salad and then ask for some killer wine recommendations at Substrate that compliment the salad.”
“Great spot with really good food. If you are new to Indian cuisine, this is the perfect spot. You can try the items before you buy!”

“Five stars for Jillian! We visited the rooftop bar and she absolutely made our evening. From the moment we sat down, she was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming without ever hovering. Her cocktail recommendations were spot-on — she clearly knows the menu inside and out — and she timed everything perfectly, even as the bar filled up. It’s rare to get service that feels this effortless and personal at a busy spot. Jillian is a true professional and a huge asset to this place. We’ll be back, and we’ll be asking for her section.”
