We decided to dine here after attending a show on a Friday night. This was probably my first big disappointment here in CLT. The have an entrance through the hotel and they also have their own entrance(which they weren't using at this time due to it being a really cold night). Upon entering, the ambiance and decor is really good. The place looks great so kudos in that area.
They were fairly busy when we went, but were able to be seated quickly which was nice. The waitress was very knowledgeable about the menu and gave a few recommendations. We ordered a Bellini, Pork Shank and the Ox Tail pasta. Unfortunately, both of these dishes were pretty flavorless. Not only were they bland, but the portion sizes were tiny. I do not typically mind smaller portion sizes as long as those bites are really well done, but that just was not the case here. The total was around $80, which is also fine for a fine dining establishment, but this felt like a complete waste of money. Maybe it was just an off night, but currently I could only suggest visiting here for the ambiance and maybe to grab a few drinks.
