We were there for an anniversary dinner and definitely plan to return.

Whoever designed this place put a lot of thought into it -- the unique lighting and beautiful wood details created a warm, cozy, and upscale setting. Everything was a ten: the food, the atmosphere, and the service. We all ordered something different, and it was all so top-notch that there were no leftovers. My niece rated the crab cakes a 100 out of 10. A huge shoutout to Gleb -- he is the best. He knows the menu inside and out, gave great recommendations, and went above and beyond. How will I ever be able to eat anywhere else after this spectacular meal? I also have to mention that this place runs like a well-oiled machine. The servers support each other and make sure we never lack for anything.

The food is over the moon delicious with plenty of options and reasonable serving sizes. Even with the slightly high price point, it is well worth every penny. And they take allergies SO seriously! Literally went through a bunch of ingredients to find what would and wouldn't be dairy-allergy safe. Atmosphere is fun but cozy, too. 100% recommend! In-depth: Postino has quickly become one of my favorite places in the CLT area after my 10/10 experience here. To start, the food. My word, it's amazing! Everything my friend and I tried was delicious. The bruschetta is 100% worth trying (the spinach artichoke one is my favorite), and the west coaster panini + romaine salad was tasty at every bite. Their wine is also good quality, with a decent-sized portion poured. Allergy safety is a major thing for them, too. Our server (Lee = the best waitress!) and her manager looked through their bread and ingredients for about 30 minutes to confirm what was and wasn't dairy safe (I asked how dairy allergies are handled for when I bring my husband next time). They also had quite a few gluten-free options, too. The manager explained that she wants people to be able to just come in and relax for a few hours without worrying if they'll get sick, which I truly, truly appreciate. Lee shared a similar sentiment, which was amazing. Now price... Yes, it is a *bit* pricey, but it is well worth it. Nothing felt lacking as far as flavor goes, and the allergy safety is a huge thing. This is one of the few places I felt my sandwich and salad were worth every penny, even if it was $17. Also, their rewards program is great. I got a free bruschetta board, and they offer several other perks. Make sure to sign up before or while dining there to get some good deals! In addition to their sincere care for allergy safety, the service is fantastic all around. They do group service, meaning you'll have several servers, and they encourage you to grab anyone if you have questions. This takes the pressure off of waiting for one server to walk by and really helped me relax. And the atmosphere? I could stay there all day! It's a really fun vibe, but the lighting and seating are very cozy. Overall, I've already recommended this place to 5+ people and will be returning soon

It currently offers free parking for 3 hours and incremental of 1- 2 hours paid parking after. My wife and I came here on a date night. While her original visit left more than be desired management invited us to give them a second try and I'm so glad we did. We had an amazing time from start to finish. The staff was amazing and I was astounded by their dedication to their craft. The best part was the food. We started with the chefs board which had an array of cheeses and spreads. The most memorable was the whipped feta. OMG. The Ambiance was the only thing I feel could use some tuning as there's not enough sound deadening to make the music out? It sounds like a heart beat and makes it hard to make out conversations. Major shout out to Leigh for taking care of us all night and making it a memorable night. Also big thanks to Odhie for the tickets to the concert. This was definitely a night to remember. Thank you Postinos Staff!

I could definitely see my friends and I popping in before a movie or shopping for some small bites and cocktails. The hostesses escorted us to a lovely private room where we selected our seats. The food battle was 4 courses, so 8 dishes going head-to-head for about 38 ppl. I know the kitchen staff and chefs were bussing their butts to get these beautiful plates out, introduce their dishes while serving the main dining room during restaurant week!!! Everything was delicious, thanks to chef Kevin (Stonecrest) and Jeremy (Kingsley). I believe it came down to a tie with chef Jeremy taking home the win by most overall points. But the real winners were myself and my fellow diners as we had to request to go boxes by the 3rd round as the portions were not only delicious but generous. Everything from the tuna (that sauce should be bottled and sold) to the sweet potato gnocchi w/ fennel sausage (holiday on a plate), it was all delicious. ESPECIALLY dessert! That upside down pineapple polenta cake with mango sorbet should be tried by everyone!

I chose the Bourbon Salmon which came with Risotto and I chose broccolini as a side and Naj had the chicken marsala which came with mash potato and she chose the broccolini as a side.

To my delight I was sat immediately. Matt, my server, was charming and quick to get me my glass of white. I asked him for recommendations and after asking if I had any allergies and if I enjoyed seafood, he offered up the tilefish on the menu. I ordered it and as I was in a time crunch and don't eat much at one time anyway, didn't order an appetizer or a side, which I normally do. Matt brought me Copain bread (so good with their tomato bisque, highly recommend) and I enjoyed the bustle of a busy restaurant with my vino in hand. When my fish arrived I was delighted with the flavors - so much so that I called Matt over to ask him to give the chef my compliments. The delicate white fish was incredible with the carrot puree and pistachio topping (there's a fancier word for it but I don't remember) I just couldn't get over how good the 3 were together! I was so grateful for the bread when I finished the fish because I had to eat every last bit of the carrot puree/ pistachio. Joey, the manager came over to check on me (impressed given how full the restaurant was) and I shared with him my pleasure - and thanks to Matt I was out the door in plenty of time!
