So, I got there without a reservation and I was told the average wait time is like 50 mins, when I was my turn, I was sat down and when I ordered a MAC burger(which was delicious) it took roughly 60 minutes for my food to come, at one point during the wait, one of the managers, Chris, came and apologized for my food taking that long to come out and asked me to be patient. There was a live band that made the place so interesting with cool music and the overall ambiance of the sport was great, i was seated outside, nice outside temperature that evening. I will recommend this place. But beware of waiting times. It's still a new spot I will give them a benefit of the doubt as regarding my food taking that long to come out.

Fine dining with no pressure! The atmosphere and decor are a must see with great views of the city! Food was absolutely perfect and the drink selection was nice. Probably one of my favorite places to go in Charlotte now!

We really enjoyed the pork belly nachos, ribs, and salmon plate! Cocktails were well done. They do live music which is a cool twist!

Huge HUGE establishment. It is very open and airy with a chill, laid-back vibe. It's super casual, so don't even think about dressing up; cause babyeee you'll be alone. The seating is a twist on mid-century modern and very comphy. The food is homemade chique. It's a take on traditional staples that have been slightly elevated. Think items you can make at home with a stop of 1 or 2 indulgent ingredients. My favorite was the Whipped Feta & Tahini Dip (Fall mix), which was actually sweet as it housed carmelized squash. apples, dates, and roasted pistachio atop and paired with a crusty garlic oil balsamic glazed grilled ciabatta bread vs. traditional pita. It was absolutely perfect and delicious; such a robust portion perfect for sharing. The Slicer was a sizeable portion of 6 different dishes to sample. I decided I wanted to try a double star signature dish the 36-hour Ribs (sub mash), and they were good. The sauce was missing the kick and fell flat, but the ribs were cooked to perfection with a little char. Honestly, that's what gave them the best flavor. I switched the fries for mash so it felt like a real meal. However, they were over mixed and glossy as too much starch got released, the potatoes became gummy, and gluey. My friend ordered the Shaved Prime Rib, and it was a total bust. It was undercooked, had no flavor, and the au jus looked and tasted like it was poured from a box. There was no richness, flavor, or depth. It definitely needed seasoning and to simmer for 3 hours. She loved my shareables, though. The service was good. The staff was professional and very polite. I would come back. I would hope they would create a menu that has more depth to it.

Absolutely stumped. DEFINITELY more than I expected...LOVE this place. The service is outstanding. Our server, Alanis, was very knowledgeable regarding what is on the menu...and she had the perfect suggestions. I will give the food a solid 5 stars. All of it was fantastic. The atmosphere is perfect for anytime. Outside dining has some views that are sure to stay branded in your mind. I highly recommend putting this place on your list of "must try" experiences. Ask for Alanis so your visit is that much more enjoyable.
