   I had a really good experience. My server Dakota was delightful and made some really good recommendations. The food was delicious. I ordered all of the oysters and the spicy tuna tartare to start. The tuna tartare came with fried rice cakes that so so yummy and not like the chips that usually come with an appetizer like that. I ordered the seared scallops for dinner that they were amazing. I also ordered the vanilla oak cocktail which is like a sweet old fashioned and I had a coffee cocktail that was just like an espresso martini. I would love to come here again.

    I was a bit disappointed with this visit. The cocktails and our server were good. The fish and chips, chicken picatta (I think) and calamari were flavorless. Zero seasoning on the fries they were a bit crispy.

    Went New Years Eve. We had bbq shrimp...delicious...simple salad...very simple mixed greens and vinaigrette dressing...scallops...YUM...and halibut and fries...good. The crafted cocktails and attentive staff are the stars of the bar. Oysters looked amazing but no one in our group had any. Will return for Oysters Rockefeller though. Overall great meal, relaxed atmosphere, delicious meal.

    Stayed at the JW Marriot on New Year's Eve as part of our return home from the Caribbean. The food and service were top-notch. Busy atmosphere with revelers ringing in the new year, yet we enjoyed a peaceful dinner by the fireplace. Highly recommend the chowder & fries appetizer.

    We have been here twice, excellent experiences both times. Great food, excellent service, cozy ambiance (especially in the booths). We sat at the bar the time before this one and the bar staff were very friendly and attentive. This last time, I wanted something with an aperitif liquor and they didn't have anything like that on the drink menu. The bar manager came over, talked to me about my preferences, and recommended a smoked paper plane (drink) - it was perfect. Great experience and we will definitely be back!

    Visited on a Sunday night- early dinner. Food was average at best. Clam chowder was ok - nothing interesting. Crab hush puppies were pretty good…could have used a little more flavor. Oysters Rockefeller were just ok - not great but not bad. Steamed mussels were odd. First - they were very large (but a little too chewy). They were served in a little pot with only the bottom half of the shell. The beer and garlic broth was very average; heavy on the garlic and just not something I wanted to dip any bread in. Also odd…they were served with a side of French fries. Can’t say I’ve ever experienced that before. Bottom line - nothing “terrible” just very average at best. Doubt if I’ll be back.

    Caroline's Oyster Bar inside the JW Marriott Charlotte had an exceptional wine list, delicious oysters and a wonderful Caroline's seafood plateau. Although not cheap, the seafood and wine we chose was worth the money. We also had the less expensive burnt ends and palmetto fritters - both were really great local comfort food options. We sat in the outdoor patio on a cold night with ceiling space heaters keeping us cozy warm. The ambiance was relaxed with lounge lighting. Service was very good on a busy Friday night. I would definitely go back again when in Charlotte.

    Clam chowder and crab hushpuppies were excellent. My wife ordered the Tagliatelle and the pasta seemed to be made in house. However, the pasta needed salt or acid badly. Overall great experience.

    Several oyster options and excellent. Crab hush puppies also excellent. Scallops were big and cooked fairly well, but gritty which really drags things down. Shrimp and grits tasted delicious. Drinks were fun though added up in price very fast. We sat outside and it was comfortable.

    The restaurant has a nice feel to it. Our server Chris was marvelous! We had a few of the thanksgiving plates which I think were a great idea for those interested in that type of food. We ordered other things a la carte off of the menu. The seafood we didn’t particularly care for due to the strong vinegar taste.

    Looked for a place close to the Charlotte Convention Center and Caroline’s Oyster bar was right around the block. The atmosphere was beautiful and welcoming.
