   My family and I got brunch the biscuit was pretty dry the outside and inside was very pretty but other than that nothing really wowed us. Food was pretty average. And service was slow didn’t really check on us only after are food was almost gone.

   One item was little salty, but it happens. They didn’t charge us for that item which made up for it! Always a good ambience there.

   We had a great evening at the Goodyear house. Loved the outdoor patio and the food was amazing particularly the NC trout. Very good service as well.

   Located in the vibrant NoDa neighborhood of Charlotte, the Goodyear House is a casual dining experience with a charming patio and warm hospitality. Since dining there when it first opened, we have wanted to try the Goodyear. The service was exceptional—we were greeted and sat quickly after being offered in/outside. We opted for outside at a picnic table, but after a while, our backs started to ache from not having support. The cocktail menu complements the food beautifully, offering a mix of classic and innovative drinks. Built On Hospitality Old Fashioned—A sophisticated take on a timeless classic, delivering a smooth yet complex sip. It is a perfect choice for a bourbon lover like me. Boom, Roasted - was a delightful mix of smoky warmth and nutty sweetness. Apple and Spice -combined Queen Charlotte Reserve rum, apple cider, Drambuie, and fresh lemon, creating a well-balanced blend of spiced warmth and citrus brightness. Pomegranate Fizz is Light and refreshing with Its tart, citrusy profile. The menu showcases the restaurant’s ability to balance rich, comforting flavors with refined technique. Crispy Rice Balls was a delightful start. These Carolina Gold rice balls were perfectly fried to a crisp exterior while remaining creamy. The Warm Cheese is a must-try for cheese lovers. This dish featured Green Hill cheese paired with burnt honey, pecans, and pink lady apples. The Beef Tartare - The American Wagyu beef is fresh but tastes salted with a mix of aioli, cornichon, capers, and potato sticks. For dinner we had Shrimp & Grits is a take on the Southern classic, Maltagliati. This hand-torn pasta dish was a standout. They were out of Grilled NC Trout, but they substituted cod. The bavette was au Poivre steak cooked to perfection, but it was oversalted. Dessert was terrific with a brownie sundae and lemon poppy cake - delish! Overall, the food was very good - and the service was terrific - but for the value - it was overpriced.

   Don’t waste your time and or money. We sat outside and that was nice. I had high hopes this place would be super romantic. It 100% was a complete disappointment. I don’t complain about places but I felt the need to complain. This was a date night for my wife and I. We like to go on dates every month. The $15 appetizer we ordered was a shrimp dish. It came out with Saltine crackers, a spread, and what looked to be a jar of shrimp. It was gross and I ate two of them. It reminded me of white pigs feet in a jar. The server didn’t speak more than 20 total words to us. She didn’t refill my water and it took me to ask to refill my coke. It sat empty and didn’t refill till we got the check. It wasn’t busy at all. There were plenty of open tables around us, but yet the server acted like she was overwhelmed but there weren’t people there so there was no reason to be overwhelmed. We wanted to get out so bad and went to Ricco’s Churro shop or something to get dessert, we had better experience there than we did here. I’d 100% never recommend this to anyone. I’m sorry I had really high hopes but it was terrible.

    A great restaurant! The out door dining is special. We enjoyed our dinner and the service was good. We came for my daughter’s. They gave her a complimentary dessert with a birthday candle. Thank you for the special evening.
