    Food is just so lackluster and always missing something - even missing things listed on the menu description (like no radish sprouts on the salmon Benedict). The service is really poor and the amount of pretentiousness not merited at all.

    my wife and i experienced aqua, el gaucho, the met, cap grill, and many other high end dining experinces. this was our first time at charlotte and will be our last. the food was below subpar in quality that it does not justify the price of the meal. service was wonderful minus the fact that the server did not acknowledge 20% gratuity was already included in the bill. being silent opens up customers to potentially over tip without knowing.

    Really wanted to like this place. Beautiful space, great ambiance, amazing view. Everyone was kind as we get settled. Then we waited 30 minutes to get seen by a server. We said we’re ready to order. He said hold on and then went and had a whole conversation with another table. Ok do your thing. We quickly realized there were about 6 food runners/busters and just him as a server. He deserved some help. We got our dishes quickly but of course they forgot one. No way we were going to try and wait to get someone’s attention and reorder. Ruined a birthday. I’ll go again if they’re around in 5 years and someone i trust insists.

    Food was phenomenal all around. We started with the rye bread and the pork belly appetizer, which were both amazing. My wife had the cacio e pepe and I had the short rib with risotto, which both had excellent depths of flavor.

    It was my teenager/family birthday brunch celebration and she was not offered something special. Food is fair, maybe during brunch only and other time of the day is good. Hope to see improvement on food since the Hotel, ambiance, location and staff are nice. Thanks.

    The food was just awful Chef is putting things together for the sake for color rather than taste. And it’s extremely salty. It’s a typically another Michelin wanna be kinda restaurant, but at least get the food right. It’s 100% not worth it

    Beautiful space with a spectacular view. The crab bisque and seated foie gras were wonderful. The roast chicken was overcooked. The red velvet cake was delicious. Service was a bit slow and apathetic for a fine dining restaurant.
