The most beautiful biscoff cake ever. Perfectly smooth and not that sickly sweet flavour either, loved it!

Our waitress Kiara was amazing - friendly and patient with our large group of undecided people.
Negroni was solid and shots were a generous amount.
Pecan pie was very good (crust a bit hard tho).
It has a convenient outdoor seating area but man those buses drive inches away from you lol
All in all highly recommended!

Amazing drinks & desserts. Our server Kiara was extremely friendly and very knowledgeable with the menu selections. Thanks for providing some of the best service that the Oak City has to offer. Until the next time!

Stopped in for a quick cocktail because there were good reviews and after the visit I wish I could give even more stars! Our bartender Amanda was so personable and honestly, I felt like I was just talking with a friend! The smores sundae was delightful and our old-fashioned and Cosmo were simply delicious!

S’mores sundae, chai espresso martini, peppermint mocha, Irish coffee, and more. Several alcohol free cocktails offered on the menu. Everything was delish. Service was super. Place was decorated for the Christmas holiday - cute! Recommend.

I recently had a disappointing experience at Bittersweet. When we arrived, there was no host to greet or seat us. We asked a waitress about getting seated or putting our name on the list, but she seemed overwhelmed and upset, which, while understandable, made for an awkward dining experience.

While waiting for the host, another couple bypassed the line and was seated at one of the last available high-top tables, leaving us with an undesirable option in the hallway near the bathroom. Instead of addressing the situation with understanding, the staff cleared the high-top for the couple and seated us in the hallway.

The waitress told us she was the only one covering the entire restaurant, further highlighting the stressful and unwelcoming environment. Ultimately, we decided to leave without ordering because of how off-putting the experience was.

I’ve dined at Bittersweet before and enjoyed their drinks and desserts, so I was excited to try their holiday menu. However, the poor service and lack of a welcoming atmosphere completely soured the visit.

My Girlfriend took me out here for dessert and drinks we ordered the espresso martini and the chai tea martini with the santas cookie plate alongside a scoop of ice cream . Our waiter was bald and very attentive and made sure our food had no peanuts in it because we have an allergy in the house!!!!:)!!

Dietary restrictions: They made sure to ask about allergies!
