Solid downtown sports bar. I have stopped by a couple times on Saturday night around 10:00pm after catching something at the performing arts center but wanting to grab a small meal and see the end of some of the evening college football games. It's a nice place to watch a game, and they have always had tables available when I have arrived. It's not nearly as crazy as the next door epicenter if you are not up for the epicenter craziness on the weekend. They have large list of draft craft beers about 50. They run out of a few on the weekend (I think they have limited storage space for the mini kegs) but worst case is you have 35 to choose from
I have gone with simple foods like sliders, quesadilla(s), or soft tacos, but everything has been good that I have tried. I have had good service. They have a circular bar in the middle with tables around the outside. So, I think it is a hard place to wait tables because you cannot see all your tables at once.
Solid Choice. They do offer parking validation in the Charlotte Plaza parking deck in the evening. They are on the front side of the CP office building.
