    Bijou
    Meena P.

    Great neighborhood bar, with lots of locals and a nice busy but chill atmosphere. I just loved this place the minute I walked in. The bar was a big attraction, they also had great outdoor seating in the front and a really nice patio off to the back . Inside seating also nice. Big red couches were super cool ! The menu is awesome ! So many cocktails and ones I can't find in a lot of bars that I love . Brownie points for that! The food menu is great too, small plates and larger and nice bar food not your usual greasy fare. More Mediterranean vibe on the food. We sat at the bar and the bartenders were cool and laid back and engaging without being overly so. We had the Bijou and the vieux carre cocktails which I find hard to find in most really good bars. Here they were and made really well too. I know they require ingredients not all bars carry or can get in NC. We also had the Naan app which comes with tzatziki and the naan had a nice layer of zaatar spice on it . Went well with out drinks. I loved the Bijou . Such a good spirit forward drink. The bartender gave us a complementary shot of a bijou based drink. Had a little cinnamon to it but was good ! Nice touch as we were leaving ! We had a great time here before our next spot. Loved everything about this place, will definitely be back.

    Wow wow wow!! Now this is a new favorite spot! This place was so good. Tapas style wine bar with a huge cocktail and wine menu. The food was great and needless to say, the foodie in me loves tapas because I get to try a little bit of everything. There are so many things I want to try next time I go like the burrata, truffle mushroom flatbread, and phyllo cheese rolls. Great date spot or dinner with girl friends. If the weather is nice, definitely sit in the garden. It is so cute and honestly made the experience. Service was good.

    Had a table for one at the bar. Conversational staff, quick service, and delicious food.

    Food was good and loved the atmosphere! They have a sommelier that walks around suggesting wines which was a very nice touch!

    Popped in for the 9year anniversary event and it was nothing less than excellent! Food is always good and fresh, the wine and cocktails were good and the service was amazing!! Highly recommended!!

    Dilworth was an awesome experience. They have a diverse variety of small plates to choose from. I recommend grabbing some of your friends and just ordering an assortment. The humus was my favorite. They are all flavored so well. Service was good but nothing too notable. We had to ask a couple times to ask what some things are as they didn't seem to review the food as it was delivered. We sat outside on the patio. The weather was perfect and we had a great experience.

    Charcuterie board, red wine

    ADORABLE place with beautiful outdoor seating. The food was a bit expensive but so delicious!!! We ordered the BEST charcuterie board, and the meatballs were very solid and juicy. Serving sizes are not big, so you'll need to order a few dishes. The service was alright, nothing exceptional, but no complaints. Overall 10/10 date spot!

    Time was had on the upstairs, very cute for a private party with a nice intimate bar. Drinks were strong the the appetizers yum.

    First time dining here. Started with a cheese board & it was delicious. Drinks were super yummy as well. We were the only people sitting inside it was nice. Our waiter was very attentive - a bit pricey but we expected that

    We had such a wonderful experience here! The service was amazing and incredibly fast. Jose was our server and he went above and beyond to accommodate all of our needs--truly outstanding. The wine selection was absolutely delicious, and it's clear this will be a staple date night spot for us. The patio seating is so romantic and made the evening even more special. Highly recommend!

    Truffle gnocci

    All I have to say is wow!!! Came here for a date night and would 100% visit again! My partner made a reservation in advance which I would strongly recommend as it was quite busy for a Monday night. I can see why though, the ambiance was so lovely- I adored sitting near the koi pond on the outside garden patio! The flatbread came out first (we ordered it without olives) and it was perfect. Loved my drink as well- it had great flavor (was not overpowered by the spirits used). The gnocci was delightful, although I agree with another reviewer than it could've used an additional flavor note to make the taste deeper/richer (gets a little redundant the more you eat). The Brussels sprouts were the real show stopper... they were bursting with flavor and the combination of the textures (crispy, melt in your mouth, plus a crunch from pecans) was unbeatable! They also reheated well the next day as leftovers.

    Dinner at DTR was incredible!! A girlfriend and I came here on a Thursday evening and it was a perfect vibe. We enjoyed lots of delicious plates that were perfect to share between two people and my glass of Pinot Noir and her espresso martini hit the spot. Our server, Willy, was so much fun, so kind and attentive to our every need. Ask for him when you come! We will most definitely be back!!

    Coming here since everywhere else was packed, I thought to try this place out since it was raved about. Dilworth Tasting Room is a neighborhood type of restaurant. Drinks, small plates, etc. It's a spot where you get drinks, get drunk, then walk home. They have a limited menu, tapas, and that's about it. If you're coming here for a full meal (as I was) this isn't really the type of place to do it. When we got here, we were seated. It was absolutely freezing in the restaurant. I think the seating in the basement contributed to that. This place used to be a billiards spot, but it has been transformed into a neighborhood restaurant. We got the Tuna Carpaccio, Truffle Gnocchi, Truffle Chips, Shroom Flatbread, and the Prosciutto flatbread. All of that we were full, but I think the experience was soured by the amount of waiting to get our food. I would say this place is again more focused on drinks and less about food. Bar food, and drinks is what keeps this place going and the food is definitely a secondary income. I would say this place is mediocre as far as that, but great for the vibes if you're bar hopping. I most likely won't be coming back to visit, but I would recommend this place if you live nearby and you want drinks with friends.

    Wow what an experience! I'm in Charlotte for the weekend, and my good friend's colleague…read morerecommended we come here after dinner for drinks. There's outdoor seating, and initially we wanted to sit outside but we didn't have reservations. Luckily, they seated us at a small corner section near the back of the bar. It's very cozy and intimate inside. Just my type of vibe. The service was top tier. They were unable to validate our parking because of some sort of discrepancy with the signage outside and lack of having the proper equipment for validation. To make up for it, they offered us complimentary champagne to start. We were not expecting that, and pleasantly surprised! Their menu has an eclectic selection of cocktails, both full and mini. We opted to order from the mini cocktail menu, and we each ordered two drinks. I had the Creepy cucumber cocktail and it was refreshingly sweet and probably my favorite drink of the night. I also ordered the Don't Shy Away which was a sour and spicy rum concoction with carrot in it. It was definitely spicy and had a puréed texture. I really enjoyed it. And, then don't get me started on the music!!! The dj was masterful. He played all the types of music I love and he mixed them in such a refreshing way. I ended up asking him for his contact information before leaving, and whether he does weddings because my fiancé and I are currently looking for a DJ. He was just that good. This would definitely be my spot if I lived here in Charlotte. It was the perfect way for us to end the night.

    Ugh, I so wanted to LOVE this place! It's in my friend's neighborhood and near some other spots we…read morelove. But it just hit me as average. It's a small intimate setting and I do love the dark aesthetic they did. Gives it a swanky vibe and makes a great date spot. But they were burning incense in the tiny space and it was overwhelming. The other bar guests sitting next to us agreed. *They did finally pick up on it and the staff moved it toward the kitchen door* Staff was friendly as well, though, it was busy and looked as if they had a trainee in tow, so attention was lacking just a bit. So why we came: The drinks were average to me. One was weird (Pineapple Fried Rice) and I just couldn't get it sit well on my palate - and I tried - sip after sip. But the mixologist saw my struggle and swapped it out for a different one. I did like the Don't Shy Away - it was an interesting take on a margarita with a strong carrot base. The Whispering Dove was a take on a Paloma and I couldn't find the lemongrass infusion on my palate. So I found it pretty basic, but pricey. So overall, decent. And I might stop buy if I was stuck in the area again.

    Fun, lively place…read more My friends and I were in town and wanted to have one last drink before we jetted out the next morning, so we ended up in trendy South End. First thing we noticed was how HUGE this place is. I feel like everywhere we turned, each section had its own vibe and its own designated bar. With the loud music, it was more loungey than anything and the crowd was on the much younger side. Canopy seems to be the go-to place in the South End. We did not encounter this kind of lines or crowds anywhere else in the area. Ordered a grapefruity drink (Our Flowerchild) off the menu and it was pretty good. Price was alright - definitely cheaper than what I'd pay in NYC (which is already atrocious in itself).

    This is the cutest outdoor bar! The atmosphere is beautiful, unique, and the bartender was amazing…read more When we stopped by, they had JUST opened so we had the place to ourselves. I bet it gets packed here, though, as the surrounding area is quite busy. We parked at a lot down the street, It's behind the train track so parking could be a little difficult. There seem to be a couple of garages near by, though. For drinks, we had the Three Wiseman and Fizz The Season. Very booze forward but tasty and enjoyable. The bartender was extremely skilled at his art and carefully curated our cocktails. We also had a little photoshoot while here, and it's the perfect spot to do so! I'd love to come back here and try other drinks. Highly recommend!

The menu this time is theme park theme... again, a fun concept but not well executed.

We had a reservation for Blue Door for Saturday night, and it was amazing. Now while she was vaguely aware of their "spirited kingdom" menu, I had NO CLUE. It was the best surprise! They have such a cool menu with a full theme park map containing 4 lands with 4 cocktails each. The cocktails all match the type of ride they are, it's honestly such a cool idea, and it was so well done. I loved the art. I will say, I was skeptical that all of their drinks would actually work and worried that they'd be too caught up in the theme to make results but . . . Oh my goodness I was so impressed by the drinks here. I think a lot of bars these days can get so caught up in trying to be unique that their drinks become nearly undrinkable. This place definitely doesn't suffer there. They brought us an aperitif when we came in, but unfortunately I have a blueberry allergy so we skipped that. We had 4 drinks between the 2 of us and they were all awesome. I ordered the star breaker and the green dragon (what can I say, I love gin and a good coaster), and they were both balanced and tasty. My friend got the diablo and the neon shift, and they were both fantastic as well! The neon shift was served with a black light too which was super cute. The one drink I have to call out specifically is the green dragon. There was something about this drink that was so unique, I have genuinely never had anything like it but I would order it a thousand times over. It's so good. It keeps me up at night. It haunts my every bar order. I will be writing home about it. What else can I say about this place - the service was great, the atmosphere was fun, and the DJ was amazing. I thought "wow this guy really likes sax covers" only to look over and see him PLAYING HIS SAXOPHONE LIVE?? Iconic. This place was perfect and I wouldn't change a thing about it. The spirited kingdom menu will only be around for 6 months according to the waitress, so definitely catch it while it's there! If I'd heard about it sooner, I would've maybe descended upon them with 200+ theme park engineers in town for the conference (maybe it's a good thing I didn't know they were there until after it was over), but instead I will just say DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND MAKE YOUR RESERVATION NOW

EDIT (5/27/28): When we entered and sat down, to the bartenders credit, he swiftly asked us what we wanted. As we were describing the general vibe of the drinks we wanted, the attitude of the bartender manifested as very condescending and lacking in general back-and-forth discourse. Despite the dismissive attitude, but after the drinks were made, we attempted to thank the bartender, but his only response was a derisive chortle before walking off. For the remainder of our stay, he was flirting with some female patrons at the other end of the bar. Sharing pictures, conversation, and general good service while we were ignored until we asked for the check to pay and leave as quickly as possible.
