    Paid $75 per person ($225 for 3 ppl) for the NYE pre-paid experience which was listed as a glass of bubbles, 4 small plates, and a champagne cheers at midnight. We were given raw carrots & peppers with ranch as one of the plates… they made it look nice, of course, but it was literally raw carrots on ranch. Other apps were good though. Never got a glass of prosecco, only the champagne at 12, and was told by the waitress that the “glass of bubbles” and champagne toast were one in the same when they were listed as separate things. Bill came out with $22 in tax and $54 in added gratuity. I get it was NYE but a $300 bill for one glass of champagne and 4 shareables (one being raw carrots w/ ranch) is a bittttt odd , even for charlotte. I will say, our waitress was nice and gave us our cocktails for free after I showed her that the bubbles (never given) and champagne toast were supposed to be different things. All that aside, drinks were great & the female bartender was SOO kind. Plus, a super cute ambiance. Would’ve been a way better experience on a normal night!!

    Cute place. Very mid century modern south Florida vibes going. Great soundtrack during ‘Bougie Brunch’. Service was welcoming, attentive and pleasant. Not at all pretentious which is a good thing! The cocktails were very tasty and well made, creative options for lots of different palates. We shared several small plates that were okay. The sausage flatbread was definitely the favorite but overall the menu was mehhh and left much to be desired considering Folia is calling it ‘bougie brunch’. I expected the food to be a little More elevated, considering the price points but instead, very basic bites with ambitious names and descriptions(bread and butter or cheese, egg salad, waffle). Again, the cocktails were good but didn’t justify the prices. Come for the ambience and a tasty cocktail and know that is what you are paying handsomely for.

    Nice ambience it gives you the feel of a high-end lounge but it’s not quite there yet. I got an old-fashioned It was pretty decent but they use regular ice in it if They put a nice size cube or a ball would have been a1

    Great space to bring friends and family for a fancy cocktail and small bites. If you are looking for a full meal maybe not the place to go. I went at 6pm so it seemed the bartenders were busy prepping.
