I've been eagerly waiting on Delta's to open. It seems the date was pushed a couple of times, with virtually no updates on the website or other sources. Finally, I ventured in - but alas my expectations were too high. After being greeted by the condescending staff and shown to a table in the refurbished GW Fins dining room, there was one trip up after another.
The ambiance was solid - perhaps some fresh linens and new silverware following the close of GW's. The place was fairly empty so difficult to get a sense for 'the vibe.' The food was mediocre - especially at these prices. Soul and southern are tasty, and perhaps hard to find in Uptown Charlotte, but I don't know how many folks are willing to pay $25 bucks for a fried pork chop or fried chicken when Mert's is a short walk away.
Food requests were overlooked and delivered in error and there was a mistake on the bill which took about 15 minutes to resolve.
I am always an advocate for new restaurants in Charlotte and hope Delta can pull it together in time before the 'For Lease' sign returns to the window. Give it a try, let the market dictate Delta's success, good luck!
Interesting trivia for you... the original Delta's is based in New Jersey - who knew 'they' were going to teach us about 'southern cooking?'
