The best dinner I have had in Charlotte. Attentive service and every single bite was amazing. From the crab, to shrimp, to steak, to potatoes, to mac and cheese with seafood. Even the desert, oh my gosh!! Oh, and cocktails were perfection. Try anything and everything on the menu and will not disappoint. The music too was great upbeat selection.

We thoroughly enjoyed our Thanksgiving meal! Turkey was absolutely delicious-loved that you served both dark and white meat. We were impressed with the sweet potato bisque, and whipped potatoes and gravy were also awesome. We had carrot cake and cheese cake for dessert, also delicious. Next year, add a side of cranberry sauce and the meal will be perfect! Servers were extremely courteous and could not have been more obliging to our requests. An overall wonderful dining experience on a day we didn’t care to cook or wash dishes. Also glad we were able to beat the lunch rush! Thanks so much!
