    Beef Wellington
    Erin G.

    We came here for dinner before the Matt Rife show at the Spectrum Center. It is a short walk to the venue so perfect location. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It is beautifully decorated inside and there are tv screens playing aquarium scenes all around.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our server wasn't the most attentive, but he came around eventually. We ordered the burrata, crab cakes, cucumbers, sashimi, and wagyu gyoza for appetizers. The wagyu and shashimi were stand outs on the list. The cocktails were also delicious and I highly recommend the Queen of Everything. I had the crab salad for dinner. Others at our table had the lobster risotto, beef Wellington, and royal catch tasting. Everyone left happy with full bellies. There are many other things I wanted to try on the menu, especially brunch. I hope to be back the next time I am in Charlotte.

    We came for the buffet brunch buffet to me are a little overwhelming. I just stick to a few things that I like and just go with it. They had some pass around items that weren't on the buffet tray. Those items you ordered on demand the lamb chops to soup, etc. our server was good very friendly that is informative as I noticed that other waiters were the drink options could be a little bit more expensive not too sure if I'll be back but I do see that they do have a a lunch buffet offering during the day so that's a cheaper option for some to consider.

    Millionaire's Oyster
    Kamilia L.

    Did a birthday celebration using the Romantic Wednesday 3-Course Dinner for Two for $100 which featured the Salt-Baked Branzino. It accompanied 2 starters. We chose the Mango Surprise Sushi and Cheese Tower and 2 deserts. We also ordered 2 of the Millionaire's Oysters. The food display was phenomenal. The freshness was there too. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The staff laid roses on the table and nestled us in the corner. If you're looking for romance (we weren't) this is it![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The Oysters were not in the package but they're amazing. The Umami elevated them tremendously, the taste was divine. I'm not a fan of caviar but the taste was delicious nonetheless. The star of the show was the Branzino. It was moist and flaky with a delectable butter and caper sauce. I was throughly enjoying each bite. There was a plethora of chard veggies that were robustly seasoned. By the time the fish came we were definitely full but it was delicious. The Mango Surprise was filling in bits elf. The Mango was sweet and soft and played well with the soy sauce and sweet imitation crab. The cheese Tower was amazing. The 3 cheese was robust. I believe it was Bri, Blue and Im not sure the 3rd but it was my favorite. The berries were huge and very succulent, the nuts were honey coated and the honey and Jam sealled it. It was a beautiful presentation. We both settled on Crème brûlée because its our favorite. However the Cherry Brownie was brought was a birthday birthday treat with candle. The service was phenomenal. The moment you entere the staff is top tier in presentation and presence. I can't wait to try their brunch!

    Seafood Buffet
    Marnell J.

    So this was an amazing experience for the price. The seafood buffet is absolutely awesome. You get to pick from list of added hot dishes from a set menu; along with some up charges for additional items. However, all of the times on the buffet are more than enough. They go from bacon and eggs, shrimps and grits, seafood fried rice, crayfish, crabs, crab legs, lobster tails, sushi, various salads and fruits and desserts. Along with the food was amazing service. The wait staff was attentive and tended to your table like you were the only table there. They brought you hot towels to clean your hands between plates. [[HIGHLIGHT]]As far as the ambiance, again it was very classy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The linen table clothes, to decorative napkin rings.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Again, the price and service charge for service are both worth it. We will be back. I went with a party of 6 and everyone was pleased.

    Perfect BRUNCH experience--priced right based on the offerings and ambience. Our waitress was an impeccable server bringing that luxury professional flare. Great place to celebrate milestones.

    Food, service, atmosphere, vibes, everything 10/10!! The brunch buffet was the die for i'm still dreaming about it. I mean everything was so fresh and tasty! Our server was so kind and attentive!!

    I highly recommend Sea Grill if interested in a fine dining experience. I have visited at least 3x. Food and service have been consistently excellent. So far, my favorite dish is Pasta Alla Ruota and Queen of Everything is my favorite cocktail. They are also very helpful in assisting planning for private reservation/event. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere is sophisticated and has generally been peaceful on the occasions that I have gone.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I definitely have every intention on returning repeatedly to try as much on the menu as I can!

    Coconut Crema?
    Steve G.

    Attention to details make a difference, and this was one of the best restaurant meals I've had in awhile. My business partner agreed. We came in on a weeknight at dinner time with no reservation, so we had to sit at the bar (which was just fine). [[HIGHLIGHT]]The space is very upscale but comfortable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service was impeccable. The bartender (Kevin?) was engaging and attentive, as were others working behind the bar. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They make you kind of feel like regulars, and that vibe led to good conversations with other patrons.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The drink menu is impressive, with the usual classics but also many variants on them; all of which sounded really good. My business partner had the Ube Sour. The flavors, including Sweet Potato powder, where unique and really good. I had a Vesper that was prepared perfectly. Pricing on the wines by the glass were very good and the selection was excellent. My business partner had the Seafood Pasta with squid ink spaghetti. He loved it and the spicy tomato sauce. There was plenty of perfectly cooked seafood. I had the roasted Sea Bass with Broccolini. So good! But what really got me was an add-on side of Seafood Mashed Potatoes. I wasn't sure what to expect but it was wonderful enough to be an entree by itself. Shrimp and Langostinos in an incredible cream sauce over buttery mashed potatoes (see pic). Desserts were also excellent. My business partner had what I think was a coconut crema, which he loved. I had two scoops of house made ice cream (vanilla and pistachio) with berries; also very, very good. I mentioned attention to details at the start. An example of this watching staff behind the bar polishing glasses. Polishing, not just washing. I watched one person spend almost 5 minutes polishing a single champagne class; constantly checking it for spots before putting in on the shelf. That's attention to detail!

    Shrimp and grits with blue crab
    Crystal S.

    Sea Grill has been on my list of restaurants to visit since it opened and when my brunch group said this month's brunch would be here I said "of course I'm going". From the entry to when I left, the experience and service was spectacular. I had the lychee martini which was so smooth and beautiful. For my meal I had the best shrimp and grits with blue crab that I've ever had in life. Nicely seasoned, creamy grits and the sauce was delicious. I also had oysters rockerfeller and they were not gritty or fishy at all. Just the right amount of seasoning and cheeses. The highlight - our hostess Dina. She was attentive without hovering, explained everything on the menu and took her time helping us sort out the bill. If I come back I certainly would like to be at her table. This is an experience that's worth the money. I will surely be back!

    The girls and I went to the brunch buffet here, and seafood lovers one is for YOU! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Really impressive display plus the overall decor is nice.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Very attentive and patient (lol) service. Fresh, high quality, and lots of variety. Crab legs, blue crab, saffron salmon, seafood fried rice, salmon and shrimp pasta, ceviche, oysters, crab croquettes, lamb chops, shrimp and grits, tiger shrimp tempura plus more traditional fare like waffles, bacon, and roasted potatoes, and so much more. Even if you don't eat some of those items (like myself) you will NOT leave hungry unless you do it wrong. TIP: There's a 2-hour time limit, so be efficient!

    I am not easily impressed with anything these days, but Sea Grill exceeded my expectations!! Wow, amazing dinner and great drinks. I came here for Christmas dinner for something different. I had the best Branzino of my life! It was amazing, seasoned to perfection and served as if I was the Queen of Whales LOL. Lemon drop was nice while my daughter had the Strawberry fizz mocktail, which was very bitter -not my thing. Inside is stunning!! Great for groups, dates, solo dates, just come. The bar was also very chill with the dim lights and smooth music. I think I called all my contacts to brag about this dinner. I'll be back Jan 11th with my brunch group. It was that good. 1000/10

    "Impressed" is an understatement!! --Sea Grill truly does fine dining right. I had the pleasure of dining here for Sunday brunch over a week ago, and I'm still thinking about how incredible the experience was. Let's start with the ambiance. The setting is formal, complete with tablecloths, cloth napkins with rings, and proper place settings. Yet, it does give stuffy or pretentious, as some fine dining restaurants can. The space was transformed into a festive holiday atmoshper that made the experience even better ! The service was top-tier. My water glass was never empty, my napkin was continuously refolded, and crumbs were promptly cleared from the table. The attention to detail was impeccable--truly Michelin-star-worthy service. And then there's the food--wow. The brunch buffet offered a variety that left me in awe. Options ranged from sushi to crab legs, shrimp and grits, bacon, blue crabs, and crawfish--a seafood lover's dream. There was also a salad and dessert section. In addition, a separate à la carte menu is included in the price, featuring items such as waffles, lamb, soups, and crab croquettes, just to name a few. Without a doubt, Sea Grill has become my new favorite restaurant in the city. I cannot wait to return. A few helpful notes: Parking is available in the Queen City Quarter garage (formerly Epicentre); the restaurant does not validate parking. Weekend brunch has a 2.5-hour table limit. A 20% gratuity is automatically added to all checks The current cost of the brunch buffet is $85. Highly recommended!

    I will forever rave about this place! I came for the weekend brunch and the quality of food you get for what you pay is phenomenal! Everything was fresh and the service was amazing. The dining room is very upscale with plenty photo opportunities. You have the option to order freshly made items like lamb chops in addition to the buffet. I would drive an hour and half any day for this experience!

Tucked at 435 S Tryon, this spot feels like stepping back in time while still enjoying modern elegance. The building itself is the star before you even sit down: a beautifully preserved 1929 Mediterranean Revival gem (originally Ratcliffe's Florist Shop) with original floors, red-brick walls and those stunning decorative Tiffany-style stained-glass windows. The arched ceilings and historic details make the whole room glow -- it's romantic, warm, and full of old Charlotte charm without feeling stuffy. You can literally feel the history while you dine. The menu has that perfect "olden take" I was hoping for -- classic fine-dining favorites done with fresh, New American flair. Think herb-crusted rack of lamb with rosemary jus, pan-seared Chilean sea bass, local shrimp & grits, or a perfectly grilled filet mignon; not leave out the duck, elk and emu. Everything is beautifully plated, and the portions are generous for this level. (Pro tip: add the lobster tail upgrade if you're celebrating!) Service was polished and friendly -- our server knew the wine list and the building's backstory, which made the night even more special. The whole experience felt special-occasion worthy but not pretentious. Whether you're coming before a show at the Knight Theatre or just treating yourself Uptown, Bernardin's delivers on atmosphere, history, and food. Easily one of my new favorite spots in Charlotte. Can't wait to go back!

The only thing I'll note is that the menu says it comes with fingerling potatoes and I don't think that's what I got. Not a huge issue obviously. I liked that the tables were a good distance from each other and the servers were very kind and knowledgeable. Everything was amazing and if I lived in Charlotte, I would be going here often.

This restaurant is very nicely designed. It's visually appealing with tables indoors, a bar area, and an outside dining area. The hostess and my server were professional and extremely nice and made my dining experience very pleasant. The reason I am giving three stars instead of four or more comes down to value. Seafood is expensive, I get that. But I don't know that there's much value to be had here. Portion sizes are small relative to what you're paying for. And in my opinion, while the freshness and the quality of the seafood may be there, the flavor is not. I have no doubt that the quality of the seafood here is good. But I did not enjoy anything I ordered. I wasn't put off by the food, but I wish I had wanted to savor each bit. I ordered the cajun grilled oysters and the miso sablefish. I thought both were too salty and despite paying over $40 for the meal, I left still a bit hungry.

Unfortunately, this Restaurant Week visit was nothing like the Eddie V's I remembered. I dined solo at the bar and actually had to ask for the Restaurant Week menu. I chose the upgraded lobster bisque (+$5) and Chilean sea bass (+$10), looking forward to treating myself. I rarely splurge on a nice dinner, so this was something I had been excited about all day. The food was mixed. The lobster bisque was flavorful, although the amount of lobster was surprisingly small. The mashed potatoes were outstanding, and the asparagus was very good. The Chilean sea bass was cooked well but lacked seasoning and wasn't the memorable entrée I expected. The biggest disappointment, however, was the service. The restaurant was less than half full during my visit, so the extended delays were especially surprising. I waited an unusually long time for my entrée while guests who arrived after me were served first. Another surprise was that the only restroom I was directed to required going down to the basement, which was difficult with my mobility issues (I need my knee replaced). I would encourage the restaurant to make it clearer whether there is an accessible restroom available on the main floor, as this could be challenging for many guests. After another long wait for dessert, I asked to have my crème brûlée boxed because the delays meant I would now be walking back to my hotel after dark. I explained that I had intentionally walked there for exercise and had planned to walk back before dark. The response I received was simply, "Just call an Uber." That completely missed the point. I wasn't asking for transportation--I was explaining how the delays had changed my evening. To add to the confusion, I was given two desserts instead of the one I requested. While I appreciate the gesture if it was intended that way, it reinforced the feeling that no one was really listening. What disappointed me most wasn't simply the wait. It was the complete lack of service recovery. No sincere apology, no acknowledgment of how long I'd waited, and no effort to make the experience feel special. I've always thought of Eddie V's as one of Charlotte's premier dining experiences. That's exactly why this visit was so disappointing. I sincerely hope this was an isolated experience because I'd like to remember Eddie V's for the exceptional restaurant it has been in the past.

My husband and daughter both enjoyed their steaks and had no complaints about their meals. Unfortunately, my experience was quite different. I ordered the scallops. After taking a few bites of the first one, I noticed something tasted off but initially thought it might just be me. I cut into a second scallop and while the first taste seemed normal, the more I chewed it, the stronger a chemical-like flavor became. The only way I could describe it was that it tasted like cleaning products. When I mentioned it to our waitress, she immediately asked if it tasted like ammonia. I said yes, exactly. She told me that sometimes this happens but assured me it wasn't because the scallops were bad. She offered to replace my meal and suggested lamb, which I don't eat, so i choose the chicken dish she suggested instead. By the time the replacement arrived, my husband and daughter were nearly finished with their meals, and honestly, I had lost my appetite. The chicken was somewhat dry, although the potatoes were very good. I only ate a couple of bites. What disappointed me most was the lack of management involvement. At no point did a manager visit our table to discuss the issue, apologize, or check on the situation. After the replacement meal, we were simply presented with the bill. We weren't asked if we would like to look at the desert menu and I was charged for the chicken replacement that I took two bites from. After getting home, I researched scallops with an ammonia taste and found that it can indicate handling or freshness issues. Thankfully, I haven't become seriously ill, though I did experience an upset stomach for the entire evening afterward. I'm glad my husband and daughter enjoyed their meals and I had been looking forward to trying this restaurant for quite some time. Unfortunately, based on my experience, I won't be returning.

The food was a bit of a mixed bag unfortunately. The Caesar salad was delicious and filling. The salmon was the miss. The salmon was overcooked and dry, where the creamed spinach was extremely bitter. I didn't end up finishing my entree which was disappointing. I would return in the future as I've heard other lovely things and would be open to trying other options.

    Review for Brown Bag Seafood Co…read more This was my first introduction to Brown Bag Seafood Co., and since we don't have this concept back in Northern California, I was definitely curious to try it. As someone who grew up around incredible seafood in the Bay Area -- places like Sam's Chowder House and New England Fish Company -- my expectations were naturally a little high. When you're close to the coast, the bar for seafood is set pretty high. That said, this is a very simple, fast-casual seafood concept, and they execute that model consistently. I've now visited a few locations -- one in Huntersville, one that used to be in South End on Worthington, and this Uptown location on Tryon -- and they all share the same strengths: * Clean, well-organized spaces * Nice outdoor seating * Convenient locations in walkable, high-traffic areas * Fast, efficient service The menu is straightforward but flexible. You can build your meal in a lot of different ways -- dress it up, keep it light, or customize it to your taste -- which is a big plus. Food-wise, it's good... just not memorable. The lobster roll, for me, was a little on the greasy side. I tend to prefer a lighter preparation. The tacos, on the other hand, were a better fit -- fresh, flavorful, and a bit easier to enjoy. Overall, the food is solid, but it hasn't quite become my first choice when I'm craving seafood. Value-wise, prices are reasonable for the concept, and the experience is reliable. It's a dependable option when you're downtown, short on time, or looking for a quick seafood fix. Bottom line: Clean, convenient, and consistent -- but not destination dining for me. Still, it's worth trying at least once to see how it fits your taste. Charlotte -- be curious and get out there and eat your way through this city. There's something for every palate.
