First impressions are everything. When this restaurant was Vinnie's we could not get silverware. My wife ate here with our friends the first week they opened. She ordered a Crabcake. It was the size of a half dollar and cost 14 dollars. It came with no sides. I should have listened to her.
The bartender brought 11 mushrooms which did not fill half of the basket for 8 dollars. 3/4 of a buck a mushroom. Really? Charge me 10 bucks and fill the basket!
The bartender was polite as I explained my dissatisfaction. She offered to let me speak to the manager. I told her there was no point. Strike three and you are out! We will never return.
There are so many places to eat in Charlotte. There is no reason to eat here unless your only motivation is to look at scantilly clad wait staff.
The food is mediocre, service mediocre, portions ridiculous for the price. Cigarette smoke wafts in from the open patio. Music too loud. This has been the unfortunate trend for this location for years. It would be great for someone to employ a bit of creativity in order to provide a dining experience with a pleasant value for the families and citizens in this area of North Charlotte.
