The first thing that stood out was the atmosphere. The interior is absolutely gorgeous--thoughtfully designed, warm, and elegant without feeling overdone. Even the bathroom deserves a mention because it's one of the prettiest restaurant restrooms I've seen in Charlotte. We started off with the foccacia and chilli butter. It was very good, I just wished it would have been warm. The service was excellent from start to finish. Our server was attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed without ever making us feel rushed. For dinner, we ordered the lamb pasta and the gnocchi, and both were very good. The lamb pasta was rich, flavorful, and while the gnocchi was light, crispy and incredibly satisfying. If you're deciding between the two, you honestly can't go wrong. I would have added some protein to the gnocchi. We finished the meal with the key lime pie, which was the perfect ending. It was bright, refreshing, a bit frozen and had just the right amount of sweetness. A huge deal is that there is plenty street parking nearby. I often dont go to a restaurant if the parking situation is tricky. Overall I would go back. read more

Queen's Feast Review I really wanted to love this place because I definitely see the potential, but overall it fell short for me. The ambiance was nice enough, but it didn't feel particularly unique. Charlotte could definitely use more casual girls' night spots, though, and this fits that niche well. The biggest disappointment was the service and timing. On a relatively quiet Monday night, our entrées came out about 30 minutes after the appetizers, and the Brussels sprouts didn't arrive until after we'd finished eating--even after we mentioned they were missing twice. Overall, service was really slow. That really took away from the experience. Food-wise, nothing was terrible, but nothing really stood out either. The crispy gnocchi was surprisingly good (and I don't even like gnocchi), and the salads were fresh. Although, the strawberries did not have any flavor which is odd considering its berries season. The market fish was unfortunately overcooked, and the Thai curry sauce lacked the flavor it really needed. The chicken Milanese was mostly breading and didn't have much flavor either. Dessert was the highlight, but it's rare for me to meet a dessert I don't like. The chocolate cake was rich, but I was disappointed that the key lime dessert I ordered (along with four other people at our table) wasn't available because of a kitchen issue. With only two dessert options on the Queen's Feast menu, it would've been nice to get the one we chose. Overall, I'm glad I tried it, but I left not quite understanding the hype. I'd still be open to giving it another chance because I genuinely want to like it--I just hope this was an off night. But based off other reviews, it seems to be their norm. read more

The decor and ambiance were nicely done. Wait staff were friendly but disorganized. We were a party of 4 and each ordered a main but each main arrived at vastly different times. Same goes for our two appetizers and drinks. The restaurant was roughly half full, so I don't understand what the issue was exactly. The scallops were probably the best of the four entrees, followed by the tagliatelle, then the chicken schnitzel type dish, with the local fish (red curry fish) being the worst of the bunch. It was drenched in a rich sauce that masked the flavor of the fish, but the frozen nature showed through. We got a couple cocktails as well, which were both solid. read more

The most bang for your buck here is the Sunday Supper deal on Sundays in June. We made reservations just to be safe, but there would have been space otherwise. The host was super nice and attentive which helped make up for when our waitress would go MIA. The drink menu was diverse and didn't feel overly expensive. For the Sunday Supper menu we each started with the focaccia and the chili butter wasn't overly spicy. I started with the burrata which was excellent and could've been my entire meal. My larger plate I chose the mushroom gnocchi and it was incredible. Very creamy and flavorful. read more

From the team behind Charlotte favorite Customshop, Henrietta's sits adjacent to Rally Pickleball, and if you sit at the bar you can even enjoy a view of the courts and watch people play! They describe themselves as a neighborhood bistro and feature seasonal menus. My group of 4 was there to celebrate a birthday had even from the beginning they had a signed card from the staff waiting at the table. I love gestures like this it really shows a level of thought and care. We decided to try some signature cocktails. Everyone loved theirs! Mine was the Garden Party which included Yuzu which I love in a cocktail. The Focaccia bread may have been my favorite because of the chili honey butter it came with. It was such a unique flavor but it went with the bread perfectly. For my main I went with the Lamb Bolognese Pappardelle which is served with an egg yolk to mix in and give it some texture. Both the service and the food were great, and it's an awesome atmosphere in here. Definitely one of the more impressive new restaurants that has opened in Charlotte recently and they have more the earned the recognition they've been getting. Highly recommend for special nights out. It also looks like they have some great private rooms including a mezzanine level for events so that's something to keep in mind too if you're planning a party! read more

Not my favorite spot! I had really high hopes coming in here but I felt like it was underwhelming. The food was pretty fine - of the items ordered I think I would only get the beef carpaccio again. The steak was cooked medium rare but it was in a bed of salsa which I didn't love. The gnocchi was also just fine it felt like everything needed a bit more flavor. My main was the scallops and they were also just fine. The service was okay, it seemed like the manager stepped in the help the team a good bit so that was nice when our waitress was busy. read more

Had a great girls' night dinner at Henrietta's!!! Fun vibe, basically attached to Rally. Staff are very friendly and the menu is just the right size in my opinion (enough options for variety, but not enough to be overwhelming). Loved the mocktail I tried with cucumber, and all the shareables were phenomenal (the shishito peppers with yuzu umami aoli were the standout, followed by the carrots and the buratta with apple butter & Verdant sourdough). Entree-wise, the fettuccine with red sauce was yummy, and the market fish (sea bass) was cooked perfectly, but it was served over a massive pile of unseasoned black-eyed peas (the only thing that I can find to complain about with the meal honestly). The chocolate mousse cake for dessert was rich and delicious - perfect end to a lovely meal!! read more

Great spot for a date night or a girls night. Super cute inside and is really nice. Our server was amazing!! So kind and helpful! The focaccia was phenomenal. The Brussels were good, but the blue cheese definitely was strong. The gnocchi was great. Pretty small serving, but everything was delicious. read more

First time here and it's so hard to find parking. Nice that is near rally. I know they are still new and that they only open for dinner but opening up for lunch would be cool too. We got the burrata and it was delicious. The yam was good. Portion small. I also got the chicken and the sauce on it helped it from not being fried. My friend got the circle pasta and there was like only 10 pieces. I think it's a little overrated. I wouldn't go again. Portion small, prices too much, not worth it. They didn't have a lot to choose from their menu so that didn't help either. The service was good. Ambiance is nice like a date night spot. Custom shop will forever be my fave spot. read more

Tasty food and a classy ambiance! Our group of seven ordered a few small plates to share. The focaccia didn't have that classic airy crumb (it reminded me more of a regular artisanal loaf) but it was still fluffy and delicious -- especially paired with the slightly sweet and spicy chili butter. The shishitos were flavorful and the crispy rice they're served with offered a welcome crunch. The creamy texture of the burrata was flawless, though I definitely wish there was more peach butter, and I think we were missing the almonds. For my main, I asked our server if I should opt for the gnocchi or the fettuccine, and she recommended the latter. The pasta tasted exceptionally fresh, with the tomato and basil sauce offering a bright, herby freshness that felt light yet flavorful. The crispy pancetta brought a rich, savory saltiness that tied everything together beautifully. I LOVED it and could have easily indulged in a second bowl. In my group's visit, we encountered a handful of hiccups in the overall experience, including not getting water for quite a while after being seated and one member of the group not getting her entree until well after everyone else had finished. They had just opened a few days prior, so some adjustments are to be expected. Still, I look forward to returning and exploring more of their menu. read more

This spot is right next to Rally and makes a cute date night or girls night out spot! We had reservations and were seated right away at a 2-person table up the stairs against a ledge. It gave a nice view of the entire space. The hostess that sat us let us know about the cocktail and food sides of the menu and our servers name who would help us walk through the menu. Lia, our server was very friendly. We ordered cocktails immediately and then decided on several small plates to share. Light as a feather (gin) cocktail was yummy and even had a bird design. My friends spritz was huge and she loved it. The star of the small plates for me was the burrata. We asked for more bread so we could finish it. The peach jam made it sweet but not too sweet. The peppers were really good too. I wish they were a little crispy, but still very flavorful. The carrots were delicious. We gobbled them up and fought over the last one. Our carrots weren't served very warm, not sure if that was intentional, but the flavor was great. The salad seemed to missing something -- my friend and I thought if there was a strawberry or blueberry or maybe even a different type of nut on it, that would make it better. The real stars of the night: chocolate mousse cake and cherry cola sorbet. The mousse cake was not what I expected but it was the best surprise. The texture was a brownie cake situation and SO good. Wish it came with a little vanilla ice cream or something rather than topping. I didn't taste the sorbet since I don't like cherry cola, but my friend raved about the texture -- it was frothy and yummy. Overall, we enjoyed our dinner. My biggest complaint was the timing of everything. All of our small plates came relatively quickly so it crowded the table and made us feel a bit rushed to be able to try everything. Then dessert was a bit of a wait, but as I said, worth it. Hoping it continues to improve since it's still a new spot! read more

Tried Henrietta's for the first time and have mixed feelings. The place is very cute inside, well decorated and dimly lit but not too dark, comfortable seating and spacing. Service and staff were super great and very welcoming! Cocktails were good and well priced, a good range of options provided on the menu. We had the focaccia, carrots, gnocchi, and fettuccine. The focaccia and carrots were really good, well priced and presented. I think the carrots were the favorite of our order. The gnocchi and fettuccine were good, but the portion size for their price was pretty comical. Gnocchi was $24, fettuccine was $22, and both were small tapas sized plates that gave a few bites to a couple sharing. For those prices I would have expected probably double the amount of food, the fettuccine was similar to what you could make at home for maybe $4. Overall the food, drinks, and service were good, but hesitant to make a recommendation with how tiny the portions were for the pastas. read more

so glad Henrietta's is here!! I took my parents here while they were in town and they were impressed. It's a nice, elevated casual experience, so not too fancy, but you're having a nice meal in a nice space. Basically, you feel like you're in the right place. The menu is local and seasonal, so I suspect it'll be ever-evolving. It's small enough to easily narrow down your choices, which I really appreciate. There's a bar area as well, with a range of cocktails, plus beer and wine and mocktails. Plates can be shareable, so we ordered, for four people, scallops, half green circle chicken, fettuccine, burrata and carrots. The star for us might have been the burrata, which was sweet (but not too sweet) and creamy. Almost recommend that as a dessert. I could have eaten the whole plate myself. Honestly, everything was delicious. I'd order any of those again - we had no leftovers! Additionally had the cherry cola sorbet, which was interesting and refreshing on a hot summer day. Our server was friendly, as were the staff who brought out our food. We had a reservation and were sat immediately. The bar is always there and there's a little sitting area if you have to wait, or if you're taking yourself on a little solo date. There's street parking available, as well as a lot behind Rally, or you could walk a little from the light rail - I'd guess 10 mins from the Scaleybark stop. We're excited to return soon, and so glad Henrietta's is here!! read more

Loved everything about this spot. Such a cute vibe. Great service! The food was amazing! Not a huge menu, BUT what they did they did it well! We started off with some tasty cocktails, the Orange creamsicle was my favorite, recommended by our server. Then we had the wagu Carpaccio! This was so good. The foccia with that chili honey butter, man, was amazing, I could of stopped here and been satisfied with my meal. But nope, we dug in more. Everything was delicious but my favorite bite were their carrots with with ricotta, carmalized honey, dukka, espelette! I don't eat a lot of vegetables, so for this be my favorite bite says it all, so good! We followed that up local greens, crispy gnocchi (my second favorite bite) half green circle chicken and NY strip with piquillo salsa and fingerling chips! Needless say we had a great experience! I will go here Everytime I'm in Charlotte!!! read more

Fancy and pretty inside, Henrietta's is date night vibes or girls night. Nice bar but overlooks a pickleball court as it owns the Rally pickleball facility next door. Honestly the service was excellent, Veronica our sever was so nice but the place itself was ok. Good food, high prices and small plates, as in not much food! What we had was good but nothing I want to run back for. The drinks were good although mine wasn't as strong as I was hoping given the ingredients. Esthetically the place is really nice, good decor. Do recommend they close off the entrance with some drapes or something so the hallway isn't right there, which is where we were seated. Drinks we had the jet lag, last train to Oaxaca and split decision . My hat lag was tequila based and was fine but very light and more juice like. The split decision was good and spirit forward and the last train had a good Smokey mezcal taste. It bad price in most cocktails. $14 . Food we had the focaccia, I've had many focaccias in my time this was pretty bland. Dry not olive oil heavy or any herbs. Comes with a chili honey butter which wasn't great so we asked for olive oil to dip. The hamachi was good and I liked the sauce but there was nothing to eat the sauce with once your eaten your one piece of hamachi. The quality of which was excellent. Nicely presented though. The crispy gnocchi was fine. Creamy and mushrooms inside, something with sweetness in it too. The scallops were cooked perfectly. On a bed of grits which was a bit weird. With a tomato broth. Eh ok. I'm a huge scallop lover like I said those were great the rest was a weird combo. Overall it was a just ok dinner as a really nice place. Probably a one and done for me. The place was packed though so people must like it! Thank you Veronica for great service! read more

Overall, some dishes were excellent while others were disappointing. I would definitely return for the focaccia and crispy gnocchi and to try more of the shareable dishes on the menu. This is a great spot for a girls' night out or a date night! Super cute and would come again. Overall: 4.7/5 Food: 4.6/5 - We ordered the focaccia, burrata, half Green Circle chicken, fettuccine, and crispy gnocchi. The focaccia was light and fluffy, and the chili honey butter was outstanding. I could easily eat an entire loaf on my own. The burrata was disappointing. I usually enjoy burrata, but this dish did not justify its price point. The verdant sourdough lacked flavor, and the overall combination was underwhelming. The crispy gnocchi was the best dish of the night. Give me 10 orders! Each piece was soft and pillowy with a perfectly crisp exterior, and the creamy white sauce served with it was rich and flavorful. The fettuccine received mixed reviews at our table. One person enjoyed it, while another did not. Personally, I found it average and not worth the price. I look forward to returning for the focaccia and crispy gnocchi and trying some of the seafood options, such as the ceviche and scallops. Service: 4.8/5 - The service was excellent. Everyone from the manager to the hostess to the server was kind and helpful. Our server was attentive and knowledgeable, and the timing of each course was perfect. Overall, the service contributed to a great dining experience. Vibe: 4.8/5 - When you first walk into the restaurant, the layout can feel a little confusing. It is a large, open space with a long row of tables, and there is no host stand immediately visible. We stood there for a moment before walking further inside, where the host stand was located. Once seated, the atmosphere was charming. The dim lighting created a cozy and intimate mood, making it an ideal spot for a girls' night out or a date night. The bar area is also impressive, and if you sit there, you can overlook the pickleball courts at Rally and people watch and talk trash. Jk lol. Other: Parking is convenient with free street parallel parking available out front and along the entire street. I did not notice a surface lot nearby. Another weird thing that we noticed was that when the servers filled up the water glasses at the beginning, it was less than an inch of water... idk if it's for the aesthetics or what but we all found it weird and hilarious. Like give me some water!!! Lol read more

The warm Focaccia bread with house-made chili-honey butter stole the show...I'd put that butter on everything. The Hamachi had a great fresh flavor, though I wish the portion had been a touch more generous. Burrata is always a win, but here it came with peach butter, tarragon vinegar, almonds, and sourdough (I definitely could've used more bread to scoop it all up). The crispy gnocchi in creamy parmesan sauce with mushrooms was pure comfort food perfection...my personal favorite. The ribeye was cooked perfectly, with a charred crust and tender center - the piquillo pepper sauce on the side were the perfect complement. And yes, we still made room for dessert...the chocolate mousse cake was absolutely worth it. read more

I came here on a girls night and it did not disappoint! It is farm to table so everything was very fresh. The service was great and they helped us walk through the menu and recommended that we order in a sharing style. To start we ordered the focaccia and burrata both of which was incredible. The focaccia was warm, light and fluffy and the butter was fantastic. The burrata was served with warm sourdough. It was perfectly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. It was so good that we ended up ordering two. Next was the hamachi which I think was great! For our mains we ordered the fettuccini and gnocchi. I had heard great things about the fettuccini but we were all very disappointed. The noodles were hard and grainy like they were old or had been sitting out for too long without the sauce. It was the only thing that we didn't finish. On the other hand, the gnocchi was so incredible that we ended up ordering 2. It is the only thing that I didn't get a picture of because it was devoured so quickly. The mushroom sauce was so rich and creamy paired with a good crunch of the breadcrumb. The gnocchi was also cooked perfectly. Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Will definitely be returning!! read more

I'm always excited to check out a new spot. The place was cute and the bar area looks perfect for an after work drink. My friends and I ordered a bunch of stuff off the menu to share. The Shishito Peppers sauce was amazing. We were actually dipping the somewhat bland roasted chicken in the sauce. Everything else was good but nothing really stood out like the peppers. Service was ok. Took a while to get our drinks. The second drink I ordered I had to remind the waiter and then she said they were out so I had to order something else. For the price, I expect a little better overall. Definitely some things they can work on before I return. read more

We chose this restaurant based on its reputation and expected an elevated dining experience, but our visit had several service issues that I have only ever experienced at a college bar. After arriving, we waited a solid 5 minutes to be greeted and then after sat another 10 minutes before our server introduced himself. Drink service was incredibly slow, my singular wine didn't arrive until after both appetizers were served at separate times and when two cocktails and ceviche weren't available, no alternatives or recommendations were offered. The focaccia was cold and dry, and the crispy gnocchi was lukewarm. Throughout the duration of our res, we had to flag down our server to place our food order, request water refills multiple times, and had to ask for new silverware after our appetizer plates were cleared and had been sitting with our entree's. The atmosphere was also unexpected. The restaurant shares space with Rally, so there was regular foot traffic from guests in athletic attire, and our leftovers were packed in a Rally paper bag. During dinner, the table beside us was cleaned with a strong chemical cleaner while we were still eating, and the smell was noticeable enough to affect the experience. Overall, the service, food timing, and attention to detail didn't match the expectation and pricing standards. read more

We came here on a Saturday night for dinner and had a very nice experience. It's a very cool place, with tons of tables for group dining. In fact, that seemed to be the main thing we saw--a lot of parties. Our server was really nice and very helpful, especially with their drinks. I would recommend the salad and the focaccia. Both are large in size. We also had the gnocchi and the scallops. The gnocchi made us think of a past favorite NYC restaurant, called Spigolo, which had a famous cheese gnocchi dish. This was very close to it--so good! The scallops were tasty, but a bit small for two people. One criticism would be that, because it's tapas and dishes come out individually when they're ready, it can take a long time. With it being Saturday night and fairly busy, we had substantial waits between dishes. But the place is so open and nice. Trendy in a good way. Also has a great view of the pickleball bar next door--a fun thing to maybe do before or after :D Our server gave us some sorbet for dessert, which was refreshing. A great date spot or place to go with friends for an upscale night out. read more

The place is right next door to Rally (super fun with a full bar as well). The dining room is quite beautiful and the staff are very welcoming. The lighting throughout the restaurant is perfect and makes the place feel more intimate. The menu is interesting with a few spins on classics - our oysters had a delicious ginger-based mignonette which was pretty delightful. We thoroughly enjoyed every dish. There's definite room for improvement with the cocktail and bar service. We had to wait a very long time for cocktails and, while delicious, the glasses were only 3/4 filled. Left us wanting more martinis which were already in small glasses. We moved on to wine so as not to further delay waiting for our drinks. Also, we were seated at a random table by the door while most of the restaurant was empty and had much more comfortable and cushioned seating. We let it go as we had a good view from our table. It just felt awkward. Overall, I look forward to our return visit. read more

Small plates and big laughs. The ambience was perfect for a social dinner with friends or a romantic vibe. I loved the volume of the music and the playlist :). Elise was our server and she was great, a very kind person. I didn't take any pics but we had the focaccia with the chile honey butter which was phenomenal, the crispy gnocchi, greens and the carrots. I thought the food was good, just expect to spend no less than 30 dollars per person. read more

overall the vibe of this place is worth the visit. It is beautiful inside and was the perfect setting to catch up with friends. Our server Elise was so sweet and guided us through the sharing plate style menu. The cocktails were refreshing (I got the spritz). hey! GET THE FOCACCIA!!! The bread was quite possibly.... some of the best bread ive ever had and im not being dramatic. The chili butter? perfection !!! We also got the gnocchi, carrots, and salad. We could have gotten more but were honestly just having fun talking. I recommend!! No pics im sorry!! read more

Our corn appetizer took over 30 minutes to arrive and it was very small for the price and a simple dish to make. The server was polite but could've checked on us within those thirty minutes. The bartender seemed unsure of the drink menu and didn't greet us (we were the only couple at the bar plus one other). Presentation felt sloppy (sauce-covered the serving spoon), and staff uniforms were so casual we weren't sure who worked there. That said, the host was lovely, and the manager kindly comped our appetizer, which we appreciated. Overall, the vibe felt like style over substance like it was trying to have a more upscale vibe to justify the overpriced meals but missed the mark from the dish quality to the experience. We will not be back. read more

This is such a cute new place that opened in LoSo! The drinks are delicious I highly recommend the orange creamsicle (if you like sweet! And there is no cream that I could see in it for you lactose intolerant friends!) the one thing I have to say and if it is the only thing you take away from this... The focaccia and chili butter is one of the best things I've ever eaten in my life!!!! I am not a bread and butter person at all. I don't usually eat it when it's given. I tried this cause the butter sounded so interesting and I was like well I have to try it. And omg we ended up ordering so much of it. Idk what they put in it but it is fantastic!!! We also got the oysters which were tasty and the roasted carrots were also great! This is a fun little date spot or a good spot for going with the girls on a girls night out. There is parking nearby which is convenient. The ambiance is dark and moody which is great but if your parents are anything like mine idk if this is the place for them lol. I can't wait to go back - I need more of that bread and butter! Lol read more

Overall was a dinner for the atmosphere. It was nice lighting and cool vibes. However, the food options were okay and didn't really have a lot of ability to ask for modifications if needed. For an upscale restaurant, being able to make modifications if needed seems to be typical. I.e. asking for certain made to order request changes weren't easy/ not well received by our waitress. This could have been our waitress or what the restaurant is able to provide. I would suggest trying the restaurant if the ambience and aesthetic are your preferences. Otherwise, I would suggest trying other restaurants in the area. read more
