    I was visiting Charlotte from DC and had heard great things about Farenheit, so I made a 9:15 PM reservation through OpenTable expecting a smooth and enjoyable evening. Unfortunately, the experience fell far below expectations. We arrived on time for our reservation, yet we were not seated until 9:55 PM -- a full 40 minutes late. No meaningful explanation, no accommodation, just a long wait despite having a confirmed reservation. When we were finally seated, we were placed outside in extremely cold weather and told that was "all they had available." After waiting that long, being seated outdoors in uncomfortable conditions was disappointing, especially given the price point of this establishment. The service from our server was actually good -- she was attentive and professional -- but that was the only positive part of the evening. For two people, with just two drinks total and dinner, the tab exceeded $200. At that price, you expect a premium experience -- proper seating, smooth reservation handling, and overall hospitality. Unfortunately, that was not the case. Coming from DC (and having spent years in KC as well), rooftop bars overlooking downtown are nothing new. There are plenty that execute the concept far better -- with better service management and guest experience. Overall, this was one of the most disappointing dining experiences I've had. I wouldn't recommend it unless you're new to the rooftop bar scene and simply impressed by a skyline view. Very underwhelming for the price.

    Probably one of the best views of the city here I Passed by for some quick pre-dinner drinks and really enjoyed their lounge/view! I would recommend coming for sunset time. You definitely have to make reservations if you're coming for dinner and request an outside seating as they have inside and outside seating. We intentionally came only for a quick drink and they let us grab a seat at the bar. If you visit just the bar, you are allowed to walk around the rooftop and they have only a handful of lounging seats where you can also sit to enjoy the view.

    The view of this restaurant is incredible. We were promptly seated for our reservation, though I will say service was a little slow throughout dinner. Our cocktails were great, and we loved the seasonal menu. We felt as though the appetizers were not as good as we had hoped - the crispy fried rice was rock hard. Our sushi and dessert were delicious however. Love that they currently have the heat warmers and fire pits on outside. The view is amazing.

    "This is the worst birthday dinner experience i've ever had." - my best friend whose birthday dinner we had here in July. We've been here before to have drinks on the rooftop and that's always been delightful along with the bartenders. We decided to have her dinner here based off of these prior experiences and we are sorry to say we will keep it to the rooftop bar and never dine in again. Our server Lilly couldn't be bothered to do her job well or politely. First, She took one persons drink order only and then walked away from the rest of us. She came through enough for us to get apps in but even then seemed bothered. When we needed her, we asked other passing staff members to please grab her for us and they also couldn't be bothered. The carpaccio was amazing but the Ahi Tuna nachos were sloppily plated with not enough tuna for the price! I want to reiterate that the hosts and rooftop bartenders are awesome and so is the skyline view but the dine-in experience is just not worth it.

    Upscale for those new to dining... People love this place, and Fahrenheit knows it. If you're new to a cloth napkin place, you'll like it ... but like many things atop a Hyatt Place, further inspection has the ratings revert to the mean. Killer views that don't have a match in Charlotte help a lot, but the outside dining area lacks much character otherwise. Same with inside. It's built for throughput and has a decent menu and a surprisingly strong NA menu. If you've read this far, you're likely not heading there anyhow, but don't let it scare you. It's fine. It's not bad. I'm not sure it's memorable or five star, but try it for yourself.

    Family truly enjoyed a wonderful evening!

    Found myself here when attending a corporate event. The first portion was outside on the rooftop area which was nice. We had a three course meal. Fairly standard options and everything was solid. Nothing of note to standout. Could be a nice spot for happy hour outside during nice weather

    I recently visited Fahrenheit during their Happy Hour special. They have appetizers for $5 and their house red and wine is also on special for $6. When we were there they also served a lemon drop martini for $10. A great special overall considering their stunning rooftop views. Probably still the best in the city. The croquettes were my favorites followed by the truffle fries and chicken. I didn't try the pork sliders but they looked really yammi.

    When in Queen City this is Aa MUST!!! View is tremendous along with food We always start with American Wagyu Steamed buns .. 8 year old had peperoni pizza as has half dollar size peperoni!! D She had the 8 oz fillet I tried the Mushroom Crusted Chilean Salmon which was delicious. Side order Tokyo Seeet Corn Our waiter ...hope get his name correct Thomas was the best as came out to terrace to inform appetizer was on table. We had mentioned his birthday was a week.ago Thomas came out with a cupcake & candle as a thoughtful touch. Will be back next time in town.

    Beautiful city views, good drinks and before decor inside. Went during restaurant week and food was absolutely delish. Only complaint I had was the waitress wasn't very engaged with my party. Didn't ask how things were thru out our meal, and previous dishes were not cleared away before the next course was brought out. With it being an upscale environment I was expecting that. In any case I would go back again because the food was excellent.

    My friends and I went here to celebrate my Birthday with yummy desserts. The desserts were tasty. I got the blueberry cobbler. The presentation was beautiful with edible flowers on top of the cobbler but the taste was the best part. The juicy and warm blueberries filling, the sweetness from the compote with vanilla bean and Bourbon brown sugar. Our waitress also bought out a delicious Birthday dessert for me. The atmosphere is always a nice touch looking over the Queen City from the 21st floor with beautiful fire pits on the patio. The server was sweet and accommodating. Looking forward to visiting again!

    We went to Fahrenheit for restaurant week and the food blew my socks off! I have been hesitant to go here for years because I heard the food was iffy. I know they recently got a new chef and I must say the food was to die for! Ahi poke nachos were fantastic and the tuna melted in my mouth. I got the miso black cod which was only on the restaurant week menu but it was some of the best fish I have ever had. There was so much flavor, the fish was cooked perfectly, and it cut like butter. I really hope they consider putting this on their menu. My only suggestion would be that I wish there was more wasabi in the mashed potatoes, I couldn't taste the flavor.

    Is there a kids menu at dinner?

    We never asked because 7 year loves pepperoni pizza .....he asks for everytime...plus has some for lunch or dinner next day if does not finish.

    Are babies allowed at Sunday brunch?

    There were kids of all ages there during dinner service, so I can't imagine they would restrict children at Brunch.

    Do you guys accommodate for parties larger than 4? I am trying to book via open table but will not show avail times for party of 5?

    They do offer larger parties. You may have to choose a different date or time.

    Is there parking?

    There is a parking lot, metered parking on the street and valet.

    Do I have to be 21 to eat here? My boyfriend and I are trying to go for Valentine's Day and we are both 20.

    Hello! You do not have to be 21 to make a reservation or enjoy our dinner menu.

    Is the Roof top bar smoking friendly?

    It's non smoking

    Are reservations necessary just for drinks?

    No they aren't

    What is the attire?

    There really is no attire but I would say dress nicely. It can be casual but don't go in gym clothes or pajamas. It is a fancy type of restaurant. You wanna look nice.

    Can I make a reservation of a table with a good view of the city? I've been to the bar and I don't know if I could make a reservation of a table outside

    Yes you can weather permitting

    Is this place more of a bar scene? I want to take my girlfriend for some rooftop dining for our anniversary, but she's 17 and I'm only 19.

    One part of the restaurant is definitely a loud bar but on the other side there is a quiet dining area that is very nice and away from the noise. You may want to request the quiet dining area when you make your reservations.

    Has anyone attended a New Year's Eve event at Fahrenheit? We are looking for an upscale experience, hors d'oeuvres, cocktails, atmosphere, safety.

    I haven't attended a New Years event here but from my visits, I can inform you with certainty that this would be an awesome place for an event like that.

    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.

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.

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

The menu this time is theme park theme... again, a fun concept but not well executed. Pretty overwhelming, especially with the bartenders explaining the menu to us twice with the same spiel there is too much to look at it makes it difficult to pay attention to the drinks. I really did not love my drink (starbreaker?) you could only taste the lychee The bartenders not a vibe, it was not that comfortable to sit at the bar. They now serve food, hotdogs... which do NOT match the vibe at all, so that was interesting that their only food (other than the free popcorn) is not hot dogs..

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.
