    Our server Brett (I think that was his name) was extremely tentative and was very knowledgeable on the drink menu! Would definitely recommend to a friend and will be coming back again for a third time!

    Went on a Wednesday night, the place was quiet and we could sit anywhere. Fun, cozy, and calm vibes. The couches have seen better days but I appreciated the esthetic they were going for. Food menu was limited but excellent for food allergies we were navigating. Will likely return.

    Charlotte is pleasant but pricey. Make a reservation to get a prime spot on cozy couches.

    First time at Charlotte and they have a very cool comfy couch setup or high tables! Drinks were awesome and food was great! The Cauliflower wings are a must! We will be back!

    Great place for fancy cocktails. We went to try out some of their delicious drinks, and very much enjoyed the atmosphere. Cozy little sofa tables made the open area feel more private. There was a Christmas party going on which was boisterous but The room was large enough that it didn't affect our experience. The drinks were very beautiful, the sweet potato fries were pretty basic though. As we were leaving a DJ was setting up, so it might be a good place to get little dancing in!

    The drinks were good, food was okay. The music selection by the DJ was fantastic. I've been wanting to go here for a long time and our experience was good, but the noise level with the music was so loud that you couldn't hear the person next to you. However, if you're looking to go somewhere with good drinks and vibes this is somewhere you should consider going.

FAQs

Charlotte is at its calmest midweek, Wednesday evenings are frequently quiet and easy to grab a sofa for conversation; Friday and Saturday nights bring the DJ-driven, livelier scene if you want music and energy.

Business casual is the guide, aim for neat, polished clothing rather than formalwear.

Yes, Charlotte's stylish, cozy lounge and cocktail focus make it a lovely spot for a date night, with guests noting cute date-night drinks and attentive service that made couples feel special.

Wednesday evenings are a great pick, guests note the place is often quiet then, and Charlotte sometimes hosts a formal wine tasting on Wednesdays.
