Best Brunch Restaurants in Arboretum

My gf and I got the valentine’s day experience, which was a three course, fixed price dinner option. We both got different things and shared, for a total of 6 dishes and 2 different wines. Literally everything was phenomenal, I’ve been to multiple high end restaurants in my life, including those with Michelin stars, and this was perhaps the best dinner I’ve ever had. Our server, wish I could remember his name, was super charismatic and funny but also incredibly attentive, a real professional. My only singular complaint was the noise level, but that’s mostly because we had an obnoxiously loud party next to us, it was tough to talk with them around but once they wrapped up and left, which was unfortunately at the dessert course, the atmosphere was perfect. Still, we both would rate this a 10/10 experience, I really wasn’t expecting it to be good, I went in with low expectations because most restaurants in Charlotte are middling, but this place is one of the very few worth revisiting.

As good as always only thing was our Truffle fries & Regular fries came out soggy but other than that it was very delicious especially the Tomahawk Steak it was cooked to perfection, Medium Rare.

Roosters is consistently great. The service is wonderful, the atmosphere is cozy, and the menu has something for everyone. With quality wine & unique cocktails, the bar area has a cool view of the kitchen & a laid back vibe. They offer outstanding sides; the potatoes au gratin are a must, but you should pick several options to share with the table! The salads are always fresh & dressed to perfection. I personally think they serve the best scallops in Charlotte, but you really can’t go wrong with anything on the menu.

Food as always was excellent. The Halibut was cooked perfectly and my collard greens were very flavorful. The roasted Chicken entree and the Mac and Cheese were also very good. The service was excellent and very attentive. A really nice neighborhood restaurant.

I appreciate there is not loud music - number one! A blue steak was perfectly blue. 💙 Excellent! Caesar & authentic dressing; truffle fries could have been a little crispier but appreciated all saucier work. Somm gave great info to us as guests and to the server presenting. Appreciated the decant. Appreciated E.C. visit to all tables. This was a lunch time visit for Valentine's Day and all aspects including our amazing server, Jules ...en pointe 💚🙌💚
