Drink of choice !

Smooth Bar & Lounge lives up to its name! A newly opened business to the Concord area is just what was needed to spark the night life. I had a chance to meet the owner (who is a Brooklyn native like me, heyyy). So many great things happening here such as: Hookah, karaoke, open mic & stepping lessons! There was also a live DJ playing various tunes that kept the night young and fun. I heard the Delta's were coming for an event soon (or may have done so at the time of this review). There is a space for events AND the owner shared there will be a cigar area coming soon. This is a very nice space, beautifully decorated. Some were dressed casually while others were dressed up. Food: wings 10/10 Drink: Old fashion 10/10 Vibe: Smooth, of course Check it out

I happened to be in the Concord area and remembered seeing some social media posts last year about a new lounge, so I decided to give it a try. After checking out reviews across various platforms, I wasn't quite sure what to expect--but I'm glad I went. The exterior gave off a welcoming lounge vibe, and we were checked in quickly thanks to our OpenTable reservation. The atmosphere was just as advertised--stylish and inviting, with impressive decor. As some reviews mentioned, the music was a bit loud. If you're looking to have a conversation, consider sitting side-by-side on the couch seating instead of across a table. Still, don't let that deter you--this is a lounge first, and it delivers on that promise. The food was surprisingly good for a lounge. While it's not five-star dining, it was flavorful, well-presented, and reasonably priced. The menu is limited, but that's typical for a lounge and makes sense for maintaining kitchen efficiency. There were still solid options to accommodate most diets. We started with the shrimp egg rolls, which were delicious and definitely worth ordering again. We also tried the chicken wings and the Creole salmon. I didn't have the wings, but my wife thought they were decent--nothing extraordinary, but not bad either. The salmon came with green beans and rice and was seasoned well, though it was cooked well-done. I wasn't asked about my preferred temperature, but considering this is more of a lounge than a seafood spot, I wasn't surprised. It may have been cooked from frozen, which would explain the doneness. Service was smooth and friendly, and the cocktails were well-crafted with thoughtful flavors. I've seen some comments about long wait times, but we didn't experience that--and neither did the tables around us. That said, it was getting busy as we were leaving, so I can see how it might get backed up during peak hours. Overall, it was a great experience, and I'll definitely be back to try more from the menu.

We stopped by here a few weeks ago because we were on the prowl for a grown n sexy spot for drinks n bites ! They nailed it here I wish it was closer they are located in Concord,NC & is a black owned Restaurant Bar & Lounge with a tasty food menu ! We arrived right at opening so there weren't very many folks inside . Super aesthetic inside so we weren't expecting much with the food but we actually enjoyed our food & drinks ! My only thing is I wish they had more variety on the menu . Far as the entrees there were only two options they had way more appetizers than entrees . This is so perfect for date night. I'm getting a petition started for them to open one closer to Charlotte .

I attended a wine pairing here for the first time. I had never heard of Grape &Glass. Located in…read morethe Ollies/Walmart shopping center. Perfect setting for private events, girls or couple date night. This place is/ was a hidden gem. Unfortunately they are closing down this month. We had an absolute fabulous time. The owner sisters were extremely knowledgeable about wines. We ordered the wings and spinach dip, our friends ordered the charcuterie board. The spinach dip was to die for. The wing meat was seasoned and so good. There was also a fabulous DJ that kept the crowd engaged. I wish iI had found them sooner.

I was invited to Grape & Glass by my best friend for a wine and cookie tasting. I was not to sure…read morewhat to expect, but we had such a great time. Firstly this establishment is owned by two sisters. They were absolutely amazing, the ambiance was nice, a small intimate space but there was room enough to get up and cut a rug! Unfortunately they will be closing their doors permanently. This beautiful gem is located within a shopping strip mall and is so easy to miss, the vibe here was so good I hate that I have not known about them up until now as I could definitely see myself coming here more often now that I have been here. Parking was plentiful! Service was slow, but they were down about 4 staff members so there was literally only one person taking orders, preparing and serving the food, so we completely understood. And plus the service was great so it definitely made up for it! They paired the girl scout cookies with the wine and had us score the pairing. The host was very engaging and gave us a description and origin of each wine that was selected. I've neve experienced anything like this, it was so engaging and well orchestrated. They had a small menu of items that you could order for small bites. We ordered the spinach and artichoke dip which was really yummy! And the garlic Parmesean wings, the wings had a bit of a kick to them and were a bit too salty for my liking, but they were cooked well and very meaty, if you like that sort thing! They also had 5 dollar drinks/cocktails available to order a well. The entire time they had a DJ playing all the hits and after the wine tasting, people got up and danced, laughed and had a good Ole time on the dance floor. It was such a great experience! I'm really sad that our community didn't show up enough to save this gem, I hate to see spaces like this go. But, I'm wishing the owners much success and blessings. Their closing day is March 14th 2026 and they are going to have a celebration, go out and support them!

I love this place. I've been coming here off and on for two years and it's consistently great…read moreservice and amazing menu options. Perfect place for pre or post dinner :)

I will start by saying that the wines by the glass here are very overpriced, so next time I come,…read moreI'll def just buy a bottle. I'm a champagne lover so I grabbed the "cheapest" one by the glass (which is still over $20), but it was awful - it was very chardonnay based, which I abhor. I couldn't drink more than a few sips of it before I gave up and ordered the next step up of their wine by the glass. I was totally prepared to pay for both glasses, but my server was super kind and noticed that I ignored the first glass and ended up taking it off my bill which was very kind and I appreciated a lot (it's what made me want to come back). My sis and I also ordered some cheese and charcuterie, which was yummy, but I'll admit they could use adding some jam and mustard (maybe a fruit) to the board to make it a little less dry. We still ate most of it though! Ambiance was really nice as they weren't super packed when we went. It was fairly quiet people wise, though they do play their 90s r&b a bit loud. Our server the entire time was also really great. Very kind, attentive, and again I super appreciated that he saw that I wasn't a fan of my first wine. Next time, I'll be sure to grab a bottle, not any wine by the glass. I'd recommend the same for anyone else coming here given the prices of wine by the glass here!
