Dahlia's is an interesting place, to say the least. To say the most, it felt like a tiny club that didn't turn off the lights and didn't have anywhere to sit, despite not advertising all chairs had to be reserved (and I assume paid for) in advance. And that's totally fine if you're at a true club or concert venue, but we felt like we were genuinely in someone's studio apartment. It just didn't feel like a club atmosphere, the lights were on, and we were all awkwardly standing around. Some friends and I attended their NYE event, and while we had a pretty good time, I don't think any of us will be back. The drinks were quality and comparably priced to other Charlotte cocktail bars. We didn't try any of their food, and I'm not sure I ever would based on the website photos and other reviewer photos (hello, burnt empanada!). They do have what looks like an okay view, but they had the screen closed--I assume for warmth. Overall, it just felt like a one-and-done kind of place. It's too bad, because the staff was super friendly and attentive. I'll be interested to know if they're still around in the next 5 years. read more

The space looks great and is instagram stylish; however the floors were sticky reminding me of a college bar. There are a variety of drinks to choose from. I had one of the gin cocktails and enjoyed it. It did take quite a long time to make drinks and there was only one or two other customers. read more

I had a very disturbing experience at Dahlia's Charlotte on Friday, April 27, 2026 around 7:20 PM. I approached the entrance to ask a simple question about parking, and the bouncer (bald in the front with hair on the sides/back, glasses, black Nike sneakers) responded with, "What, you can't read?" I told him that was rude and walked across the street to read the sign. While I was on the phone with a friend, he began yelling across the street at me, using profanity, including the F-word, and calling me "stupid." It was aggressive and completely uncalled for. As a woman, I felt unsafe and ended up calling the police because of how hostile the situation became. When I went back to calmly ask for the manager's information, he refused to let me into the building and told me he would "call the police and have them tackle and arrest me." This was extremely alarming behavior. I did speak with a manager who apologized and said the bouncer was a contractor, but that does not excuse the behavior. No customer should ever be treated this way. I hope management takes this seriously and ensures this does not happen to anyone else. read more

The drinks are certainly unique ... but almost to a fault. While I appreciate the creativity and diversity on the menu at Dahlia's , I think incorporating some more traditional options could really elevate this place and make it even more appealing. read more

Such a cute place. Luckily I went during a non busy time.. around 2pm on a Sunday so we got to experience the place while it was calm. I love the decor with the live plants. The bartender was very nice and made sure we had a good time since we were celebrating a birthday. The drinks were good and presented nicely. read more

Nice place with beautiful esthetics but I witnessed a gentleman who worked there (possibly a manager), take these two young women's full drink they purchased from the Novelty roof top bar (in the same building) and poured them out due to a policy that the young ladies were unaware of that they have a different liquor license than the roof top bar, so drinks weren't allowed in that area despite them coming to the floor only to use the restroom. If Patrons are not aware of this "policy" they shouldn't be penalized by getting their drinks taken away and disposed of read more

I know the bar has the capability to be warm. It's winter, why would you not use that? Plus taking all of the plants out of the ceiling and putting them on the entrance wall, rookie moves. Bring back the former glory. The old fashioned was great. But that's it. read more

This place is gorgeous on the inside and the pictures of the fancy and unique drink menu called me to check it out , but... the bartenders are not nice or helpful and will outright ignore you if you don't look familiar or if you don't look like you are spending. I had high expectations for the level service based on location, interior atmosphere and management but to no avail. I thought this was going to be on my favorites list and go to for my uptown visits ... Disappointed isn't the word, they need a redo as far as bartenders go! Some of the worst ones I've ever experienced! read more

Rolando was amazing. He even indulged into our weird drink request. He and his staff were awesome, and my friend and I had an amazing experience, and I look forward to visiting again read more

I really loved the ambiance here; the patio was open last night. It was a great vibe initially. The cocktail I tried was decent, but my experience with ordering charcuterie was not satisfactory. The charcuterie I ordered had 2 meats and 3 cheeses. It was delivered with 1 meat and 2 cheeses. When I brought up the missing prosciutto, our server was very apologetic. The manager offered to bring the prosciutto, so we accepted. We didn't notice the missing cheese until later, so my guest went to let the manager know this. She also let him know that we'd rather just not have the dish. The manager was visibly annoyed with us and came to collect the charcuterie. Word of advice to management- if you have a menu full of different types of charcuterie, it's distasteful to try and charge $35 for anything less than what you describe on your menus. You can't be mad at paying customers for changing their minds when they realize what's happening. We went downstairs to Saku, and had a great meal with drinks. There are better places in the same building for girls night! read more

This place is amazing. I am from Charlotte and have never seen such a great concept. The ambiance is upscale and has a plant wall as soon as you enter the space. The owner came over and introduced himself and told us a lot of the ideas and concepts that went in to creating such a nice place. The bar lights up and the drinks were really good. We went in for a quick drink and ended up being one of the last people to leave. Always happens to me when I am having a great time. If you are looking for an upscale place with good music and good drinks this is your place. I don't post a lot but I had to let everyone know how great this place was. Enjoy. read more

Spoke to owner who was very helpful and handled the matter professionally as reggie (with the small r) should have initially! Blame 3 star on him, otherwise a vibe for a light night. read more

Will not be coming back. Drinks were mediocre and so was the food. On top of it the service was not good. Our waiter was gone for long periods of time and would not check up on us. At the end of the night when we wanted to close out the waiter was no where to be found and we had to wait yet again for them. read more
