| - One of the best meals I've had in Charlotte! That is really saying something, as I eat a lot lol.
What a lovely date night spot. Everything was so great!
We began with cocktails. We had the Smokey in the Rye and the Made In. Both were excellent bourbon drinks. The Smokey in the Rye had a smoked glass, which was a nice presentation. The Made In was more like the Manhattan.
Since it was our first time, they gave us a complimentary "spread." Of course I was pumped about that! We chose the roasted red pepper as recommended by our waiter, and it was so good. The pitas were warm and grilled, and I'd like a jar of the peppers to put on just about everything.
For our entrees we got the wild mushroom pizza and the sea scallops over a mushroom risotto. Holy cow both were so good! The pizza had very flavorful cheeze, delicious mushroom, and it was drizzled in truffle oil- my fav! It was a small size, but very filling. The scallops were perfectly cooked. The mushroom risotto was to die for as well. My fiance' thought it was a bit salty, but I loved it just the way it was. SO GOOD.
Lastly, we splurged and got 4 ice cream tastes. We tried basil, vanilla, and chocolate nutella ice cream. The 4th flavor was apple cider sorbet. It was the perfect end to a perfect meal. The chocolate nutella and the basil are A MUST!
The meal was incredible from start to finish and the waiter was very helpful and attentive. We loved it and we will be back!
