Best Hot Spot Restaurants in Charlotte

Visiting Charlotte and staying in uptown area. We visited here on a Sunday evening. No idea about parking, we walked. Everyone we encountered was friendly and welcoming. Service was professional, attentive but not intrusive. They weren't packed when we walked in but it got that way and they handled it well. The food, though. Oh my. I had the baby gem salad and the roquefort dressing was delicious. I had the roasted tenderloin and added a side of Carolina gold rice. My companion had the grilled shrimp and said the shrimp were excellent. He added the blue sweet potato side dish with balsamic and cashews. Unusual but a delight. He shared a bite with me and it was so good. Wines are interesting. We had some great ones.

We did Sunday Brunch before a Panther’s game. Very nice selection of drinks, mocktails, and brunch items. I got the Lomo Saltido (SP?). Added the egg for $2 more. So much flavor and a slow heat build up as I ate. My wife got the avocado toast. The poached egg great and the balsamic drizzle on toast was a fantastic addition. My daughter got the pancakes. Wow. So fluffy and the black berries and blue berries were so good.

Nice evening out, good service by the servers even though it was very busy. Surprised not to see family favs Brazilian collards or fried yuca but plenty of other dishes at salad bar.

Visiting from Miami Beach for a few days this was our first meal in town. Convenient location right across the bechtler museum of modern art, we had lunch on monday afternoon. My mom had fish special which was mahi mahi with carolina rice, small portion about 4 or 5 oz or fish 5/5. I had a crab cake sandwich, big cake in between bigger bans 4/5. Restaurant was quite. Service was simple. Thanks!!!

We had a great time. The place is beautiful, environment lively. We often had to flag down servers for an order or bill, but they were kind and friendly when they were there. Highly recommend.
