    The Valentine's 3-course meal was truly a delight. The Wagyu beef tart was a wonderful combination of flavors, and the Lobster bisque was a comforting, smooth treat for our first course. For the second course, the NY Stripe steak with peppercorn gravy was so satisfying and rich. For dessert, Hubs was completely enchanted by the chocolate mousse, bursting with chocolate goodness, while the Strawberry cream cake evoked such sweet memories, showcasing the most exquisite strawberry flavor. Our waitress was incredibly kind and attentive, always ensuring we had everything we needed, and the gentleman serving water was extremely thoughtful, refilling our drinks before we even had a chance to ask. It was a truly memorable experience, and I wholeheartedly recommend it—10 out of 10!

    Delicious from start to finish. Smoked salmon and blinis, avocado toast with dark bread and poached egg, (used the remaining smoked salmon on top of that), followed by profiteroles and double espressos. Wish they had dessert crepes on the menu. It was pretty loud but in fairness there was a wedding shower happening at the next table with at least a dozen awkward chittering college(?) girls drinking a little too much. But it was fun and a real surprise to have such a delicious brunch. A definite must!

    My girlfriend and I spent the early afternoon of Valentines day  at the Charlotte. We started off with the crab fingers (Cajun style) and a couple of cocktails. I cannot stress this enough, if you try the crab fingers, you will not be disappointed.  For our entrées we had the crispy duck and spicy vodka pasta, both of which were magnificent. Overall the experience was incredible. Our server was pleasant, and we will definitely be returning.

    My date and I had a reservation for 7:15pm. Upon arrival valley parked our vehicle and we were greeted at the door with a “ranch water” cocktail. We then took the elevator up to the restaurant and were promptly escorted to our table. We started off with a bottle of Pinot Noir for drinks and of course servers kept us hydrated with water throughout our dinner and made sure we were well taken care of. For appetizers we had the Chicken Kaarage (GF) and Salmon Crudo. For our main meals we ordered the Salmon Steak and Duck Leg Confit and shared a flight of sides including the roasted mushrooms, triple cooked fries, and Brussel Sprouts! The food was amazing and so was the service. Everything was delicious and prepared in a timely manner. Great experience if you’re are new to the Dallas area wanting to explore and see beautiful views of the city.
