Found this place by chance (just down from my hotel) and what a find! Many local beers on tap and a knowledgeable wait staff about them. Also the menu and its service was superb.
I usually dine alone and did not feel uncomfortable at all. My meal was well paced by the wait staff. While it was a quiter night (not as packed as other reviewers have mentioned) they did a great job of pacing the food with me and not making me dine at the pace of the kitchen.
Can not wait for my next business trip to Charlotte to go here again!
