Really awesome experience! Came here immediately after proposing to my woman and I they gave us some really nice amenities. The best part was the service; every single server/host/food runner was amazing. They have the perfect balance of checking on you and not being overbearing. My lady was cold & they brought a blanket as a courtesy. We just split one plate, the 20oz ribeye, and it was delicious. But the service is really what put this over the top.

The Charlotte restaurant’s thoughtful attention to detail stood out—they even wrote me a happy birthday note. I enjoyed salmon drizzled with pineapple teriyaki sauce, served with bok choy and mashed potatoes. For an appetizer, I chose fried plantains with a jerk-style dip—a delicious pairing of spicy sauce and sweet plantains. I sipped sweet Southern tea alongside my meal. The elegant, luxurious furnishings create an inviting atmosphere, perfect for birthday celebrations or private business meetings. Valet parking is also available.
