    Beet salad
    Megan P.

    I went here with 6 friends and this place was social distancing. We were able to sit close to the bar. Where they had a couch and two chairs for our group to sit at. This place the staff was friendly and they had nice music playing in the lounge. The food was great. The service was good as well. The only thing with the service was when we got our food the server would forget to bring forks. Once we got our food she would have to go back and get forks for us. I had a beet salad which was good, but I felt the beets could have been a little softer to the bite. I had the pickled vegetables which had radishes, cucumbers and another pickled vegetable that was flavorful. I ended the night with a piece of olive oil cake which was great. It was tasty and it was gluten free. It had a lemon sauce and blueberries on it the cake was nice and moist not dry at all. I will be coming back.

    I had a really good experience here and I owe it all to the bartender. She was sooooo good. She was not only extremely friendly, but also very helpful. I told her what I like in a drink and how much I wanted to pay and she custom made the best spicy cocktail ever. She also gave me candied jalapeños, which were amazing. I never had a bartender actually care enough to do that, and it was awesome. The atmosphere was nice. It was decorated beautifully. I went on a Thursday and it wasn't too crowded, it had just enough people to have a good time, but not crowded so you can't even move. I liked it, and I would definitely go back again.

    I've been waiting for this place to open for a while as I follow the mixologist and venue on IG. Once I saw the official grand opening, I immediately RSVP'd for myself and a friend. The RSVP was free and did not mention a cover of any sort. Although still new here from Brooklyn, Charlotte's nightlife scene is getting a wave of places with sharp dress codes, free seating, incredible crafted cocktail lists and beautiful social people. Not to mention uptempo music that triggers a good time and conversation with other transplants and the rare native. I dressed up and headed over at 8:15 for the launch party was ID'd and entered with my ticket pulled up in my iPhone. When entering, I noticed a long line of people appearing to be registering for something. NC state laws are weird so I figured QC Social is a private club. Come to find out there was a $10 membership fee that was not mentioned on the RSVP or follow up emails. Patrons including myself was confused as to why we had a "free" ticket but still paying for a cover. I understand covers and their purpose but a heads up would have been nice. When I mentioned it to the lady signing me up, she said "yeahhhh I'm sorry. Just try to have a good time okay?". I paid the $10 and registered but that threw me off for the fact I felt a bit swindled. I don't even know what that membership includes since you don't receive an email or card or anything. Now to the ambience, this places gets it! Warm low lighting, exposed brick, plush large leather couches, high velvet wingback chairs! The jazz band started the night off slow and everybody looked amazing. Fellas had on suits, ladies in cocktail dresses. This was the night to be seen and look your best. You planned for tonight, and it showed. The cocktail list was short with four drinks, I assume to not overwhelm the guests. I hear their is a larger cocktail list for other nights. I had the Bob Marley drink that gave you vibes of a breezy night on an island. Think Rum Chata, lime, nutmeg. It has way more ingredients than that I just can't recall the exact list. The draft list was impressive, I'm a beer buff so love seeing Omnipollo and Evil Twin as well as local stuff. I would say too many stouts and high gravity beers for the summer. I opted for a Full Steam IPA out of Durham. Perfect. Bathrooms we spacious and well lit. The patio had free seating I hope stays to promote conversation since I met some new friends out there. The DJ came on around 11 and he sealed the night. High energy, R&B classic mixes, the guy was flawless on the tables. Plus, he looked good while doing it. Well dressed, sharp bald fade and tats. I see a lot of nights here and won't allow the initial bad shuffle keep me away, but definitely want management to understand and explain what's going on. We came out to support the launch of something great, take every step to inform us of what we're getting upfront. Outside of that, cheers to QC Social Lounge.

We were a walk in but were able to score a table outside which was perfect. The drinks are good and the staff members work as a team so there's not one primary waitress. I ordered a custom drink where I told the server what I liked and the bartender created something based on my likes. It was a "fruity" tequila based drink and I enjoyed it. We were given a bowl of complementary kettle corn to enjoy with our drinks. The music was a mix of r&b and hip hop and was loud enough to vibe but didn't overpower the conversations.

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.

We did not get tended to for our coal refill and repacking needs, even after going to the front several times. The guy kept saying he will come and we watched him go everywhere else each time. We waited way too long. The 1 line for drinks being made by 1 server took extremely long. Although the music was great bring played by the live dj, it did not take away the frustration. No one should have to chase for service that the establishment is known for. No one should have to wait on a extremely long line just to receive a drink at a hookah lounge. This is not a club by any means. Even if you have an event, the establishment should plan much better for the crowd by make it a more efficient and effective experience. The transition was horrible.
