Forchetta is an Italian restaurant located within the DoubleTree hotel in downtown Charlotte. While the staff was attentive, some guests found the parking situation confusing. The menu features classic Italian dishes like lasagna and pasta, with mixed reviews. The calamari appetizer was well-received, but some felt the lasagna could have been more flavorful. Other standout dishes included the grilled octopus, rabbit ragu pasta, and the seafood pasta, which was delicious. The salmon is very fresh and cooked perfectly, though one guest found it undercooked. The portions are generous, and the Montepulciano wine is enjoyed by many. The garden salad has very fresh assorted lettuces. For dessert, the apple pie and mango cobbler are popular, though the pie was frozen when served. The atmosphere is quiet and peaceful, resetting one's mood, and the location is great for attending Uptown events. The service is excellent, with accommodating staff and fabulous servers. Some guests had trouble finding the entrance, as street doors were locked, requiring entry through the hotel. Forchetta provides a decent dining experience, though some guests preferred their local Italian spots over this hotel restaurant.
