    Excellent service paired with wonderful wine and great food. Only one dish was lack luster, the rest were outstanding. The crispy calamari was light and delicious and was as close to perfect as I may have ever had. The carpaccio and coffee ice cream were also exemplary.

    The food was fabulous. From the bread that you are given when you arrive to the dessert including the fresh pressed coffee.

    Superb food, outstanding service in a charming and unique venue. We loved the foie gras, beggar’s purse, sea bass, salad, focaccia, elk chop, cocktails, wine and grapefruit dessert. Our first restaurant visit in Charlotte. We’ve never visited before. Made us want to move here. Thank you Ben, our server.

    Visiting from Pennsylvania… Our four children live in the Charlotte area and we’ve walked past the restaurant many times. We’re so glad we finally were able to dine in here. The wait staff was wonderful and the unique, cozy atmosphere was terrific for our family of seven. The food was incredibly delicious and well presented.
