Okay so I wanted to get a really cool dessert for my birthday. I did a google search and up pops this picture of a one pound doughnut! I have never seen a doughnut so big and I decided since it was my big day I should treat myself. This is how I ended up at Stoke! The restaurant is located inside a hotel in uptown Charlotte. My best girlfriend and I went in the afternoon around 2pm. It was not crowded at all. There was no wait for a table which I enjoyed because we had limited time on the meter. I ordered my doughnut and she ordered a salad and a drink. The doughnut came to $18 which since it was a treat was not bad lol. Definitely a one time experience for me but a fun one Indeed. My friend even ordered one to take home! The food came out in a timely manner and the bartender who was tending to us was very nice and attentive. He checked on us just the right amount of times. Overall I'd say the experience was very nice. I'd definitely stop by again on a date or just for a drink so I can try the other menu items. I'd love to see how it is in the evenings. Definitely isn't some fast food place so a few extra dollars wouldn't hurt either lol.
