Chef Loo personally greeted my family to ensure a wonderful experience. From the friendly, genuine greetings, to the 360 views of the Charlotte skyline, to to one of the best cocktails I’ve ever had and a meal that was divine, we were spoiled with this exceptional experience. Thank you, Chef Loo! It was incredible! From (future Chef) Joel (with an L at the end) and family!

Staff was great. Truly great. The rooms are a little loud when multiple tables are set. The outside area looked very nice. The appetizers and salads were extremely good. We ordered the shrimp and grits and the burger with fries. The shrimp and grits were OK at best. We only ate half of the burgers. The fries were on point.
