Wow! Petit Phillippe is my new favorite spot in Charlotte. It serves triple duty ... a great place to hang out with friends to enjoy wine and chocolate, a go-to place for wine advice and to grab a great bottle sure to impress, and finally - beautifully boxed handmade chocolates for any occasion. They have been most accommodating when I need to run in and run out - with a box of chocolates or a bottle of wine - and, when I've had the opportunity to actually sit and enjoy, the experience was very pleasant!
The owners are incredibly friendly and helpful, the seating is comfortable, and, I've never felt rushed or out of place. Recently, my friends and I went to an early dinner and were still wanting something a little sweet to round out our night ... we selected a bottle of wine and a plate of chocolates - such variety! The woman behind the counter made a few suggestions and then offered to cut the pieces in half for us - the perfect size. I highly recommend Petit Philippe and can't wait to go back. The only downside ... the hours. They close pretty early most nights (the latest they stay open is 10 on Friday and Saturday) and aren't open at all on Sundays.
