    Great space to bring friends and family for a fancy cocktail and small bites. If you are looking for a full meal maybe not the place to go. I went at 6pm so it seemed the bartenders were busy prepping.

    Concept was cool, space was really nice. Drinks were great, though pricey which is to be expected. The noise level was really loud and it made it difficult to have conversation. It was a Saturday night so it being busy was expected. Didn’t eat anything to judge the food. Would go again but maybe on a less busy/popular night.

    Overall the atmosphere was very nice at Folia. The only issues we had during our visit was that they were out of a lot things just for it to be early in the night and the waitress forgot to add in our food order. Also, it took quite some time for us to receive our drinks.

    I actually didn’t try any food here. But Open Table made me give a rating for it anyway. We had mocktails and loved them!

    The space is beautiful and unlike anywhere else in Charlotte. The flatbread is extremely small and presentation was strange (2 slices on top of each other on a plate). The espresso martini was awful - it comes out of a tap and looks like chocolate milk, no foam or beans on top. We loved the razzbasil but that was the only drink that we thought was exceptional. Would come back with friends for the ambiance, but would probably only stay for a drink or two.

    We arrived at Folio at our reservation time and was promptly stopped by security asking if we had reservations. His approach was pretty cold and uninviting. We then had to wait in the tiny reception area for about 20 minutes for our table to be ready. The inside is well decorated and very busy. It was okay not sure if it’s compelling enough to go again.
