    The donut
    Brian P.

    I came to the Stoke for a work dinner with clients. Great atmosphere there isn't too loud. Lots of space. We tried several appetizers- the octopus was the best. Deviled eggs looked great but tasted just ok. I got the pork shank that looked amazing but 2 slight disappointments- first it wasn't hot. Maybe this is because it was sitting around while my coworkers food was prepared? And second- it was crying out for mashed potatoes or a vegetables to help soak up all that sweet glaze. I did order a side of potatoes but it wasn't the best pairing. Their donut for desert is highly recommended. Very unique in a great way.

    Fried Chicken Biscuit
    Sabrina T.

    Ate here for breakfast the food was so good cant wait to eat here again !! Had the Chicken Biscuit and an order of Rosemary Fries 10/10. I do wish they served Mimosas but nonetheless a good breakfast experience. I will be back soon to try something else. But def recommend that chicken biscuit!

    Pappardelle with duck confit
    Mary Hilliard M.

    Tried the pappardelle and it was delicious! Perfectly warm and comforting on a super cold evening. The grilled crostini was heavenly. Tried one of the signature drinks, the Blackberry bramble, and it was too sweet for my taste. The server was fantastic and noticed that I wasn't drinking it and offered to replace. Switched to my standard vodka and soda - perfect! Service is lovely and very efficient. I was dining solo due to a work trip and was completely comfortable by myself.

    12 oz NY Strip ($46)
    Ryan H.

    Must try: Pretzel Brioche, Deviled Eggs, and NY Strip! Why: Loved the Pretzel Brioche with a selection of 3 whipped butters and that Honey Butter was my favorite! The Deviled Eggs were amazing also with smoked trout on top and a side of bacon salad. The 12 oz NY Strip was unique with kimchi seasoning, sherry caramelized onions, and bordelaise sauce. I ordered medium rare and it was tender deliciousness. I enjoyed an Old Fashion with my meal. Notes: Conveniently located in the Marriott City Center Hotel where I was staying, and I was able to charge the room. Service was fantastic all around from host to waiter to floor manager who walked around greeting guest. They were welcoming, attentive, and helpful. I sat near the open kitchen area, which was neat. Spacious and clean restaurant with many seating options like small tables, booths, and high tops for large parties. Would def come back when I'm in town for work!

    This was listed as "pretzel bread" but it did not look more taste anything like a pretzel. Boring

    Last minute I decided to park at the Marriott (valet) to attend a show later in the evening. Plus I wanted to re-try Stoke as I have not been for a few years or more. So I went to my show and came back to the bar at Stoke for a cocktail and some bites. The menu selection of appetizers was a little weak and I opted for the charcuterie board and the pretzel bread w/ butter. Both came out beautifully plated and it ends about there. Let's start with the charcuterie, first my bad for not asking how big the board was. it would have been welcomed info, the giant size of this thing for one person is a lot. It came out piled high with several meats, cheeses and other accompaniments. Again, if I had 6 other ppl with me, this monster board would have been perfect. Other than the size, the highlights about the board end there. My biggest gripe is that they only provided a sliced loaf of toasted bread. So there were no crackers or mix in textures for the endless combos on cheeses and meats. Plus the bread was not great. If you make a bold choice to highlight this curated loaf of toast, it should be spectacular to taste. Other than that everything else is preference. The pretzel bread sounds good and was presented with a lovely trio of spooned butters. Flavors included; cheerwine butter, honey butter and what looked and tasted like a grainy mustard/horseradish butter. The bread I expected to have some resemblance of a pretzel. Like the top/crust would be deep brown, flaked salt on top or perhaps the shape would be a pretzel. Nada. This looked like another cousin of the charcuterie board bread, boring. Perhaps this loaf didn't cook long enough or someone forgot to pop it in the oven before serving but it failed in looks and taste. The butters were interesting. The cheerwine butter had zero flavor. It wasn't even sweet like the classic local drink. The honey butter was the best of the 3 but not a wow. Lastly the mustard/horseradish butter was not to my liking and I'm not sure what i could pair it with to highlight the profile but I'm stumped. I expected a more varied selection or appetizers with some local ingredients but it felt like this concept is attempting to elevate simple ingredients and load your plate like most southern dinner tables but more flavor is needed and providing a few things that are exceptional versus a lot of blah. Service was good. Staff was inviting and attentive. From the hostess lovely greeting to the 2 bartenders that took care of me, it was a nice spot to end the night.

    Came here for a going away dinner with a friend! Bar was popping for a weekday night. Drinks were good and strong. Food was delicious! We shared the bread and loved the different butter options. Great service, will be back!

    Stoke is located inside of the Marriott in Uptown Charlotte. I've seen the name pop but didn't visit until a friend invited me out. Aesthetics beautiful. Service good. Unfortunately, the food for this visit was a miss. Appetizer - Trout deviled eggs was not good. It had a really funky taste. Entree - Fresh catch (sea bass) with rice grits and wilted collards. The bass was just ok. The rice grits were inedible bc they were wayyyy too smoky and the greens left much to the imagination. Side - Brussel Sprouts - bland and had some thick white sauce on them. Seems they may have been boiled at some point. They were really soft and unseasoned. My friend had the chicken and said it was ok. I love trying places around the city. Unfortunately, this is one I probably won't be back to.

    Giant donut

    We went to Stoke for their giant Donut and it did not disapoint. The place is located inside the Marriot Hotel in Downtown Charlotte, nice environnement and good communication of the waiter. The giant donuts were made to order and the server told us before we ordered that it takes about 20 to 30 minutes to prepare. That's a good point for us because it means we're getting the freshest possible donut. We knew it was going to be a giant donut but we were still impressed by the size when it arrived at our table. It was not too sweet even though it was dusted with powdered sugar. The donut was served with a diplomate cream in the center and topped with crumbles heath bars.

    A hearty breakfast of caged free eggs, breakfast potatoes (white, purple and sweet), turkey sausage and whole grain toast.

    Center City Marriott has a nice restaurant that can certainly satisfy your cravings whether it be morning or a late night. I came for breakfast and was pleased that they have all the requirements that I look for.... Great customer service, a friendly smile, CLEAN and healthy quality food with a variety of options. No short cuts. No fake food. My food was served hot, prepared as ordered, well seasoned and tasted great. My server had a big smile, she checked on me and kept my water glass full. The ambience was warm, cozy and relaxing. I wasn't rushed or bothered. Perfect morning to start the day.

    My wife and daughter were in Charlotte to celebrate Christmas. After we checked out of our hotel, we went to Stoke for lunch. The restaurant is in the Marriott City Center. We don't have high hopes but there weren't many places open. The holiday menu was a 5 course meal with some choices for soup and salad and the main entree. We couldn't have been more surprised. The food was phenomenal. The staff was so friendly and accommodating. Chef Luis and Chef Ericka even shared their recipe for their Brioche and mushroom stuffing, which was one of the highlights of the meal, as were the deviled egg appetizers. My wife ordered the Sunburst Trout, a filet with an orange pecan sauce, and it was amazing. Please try this wonderful restaurant. Michael, Maria, Eva and Myrtle will take great care of you.

    Scallop
    Brenda K.

    More of a 3.5 stars. I came for a business trip and stayed at the Marriott City Center. I didn't want to go particularly far for dinner especially late at night so I just ate at Stoke, a restaurant located at the lobby. It also has a bar on the other side. I ordered a 100 gardens salad, scallops, and cheesecake. I asked for a very basic salad asking for no chives, apples, and cashews. The portion was huge so I wished I asked for a small portion which you can do. The pieces of lettuce were huge and it was a bit inconvenient to eat. I wish it was shredded up a bit more or cut up in bite size pieces. For the scallops, they were on the salty side and the pieces were a bit inconsistent. It wasn't bad but I did have to alternative back and forth form the scallop to the salad to balance the saltiness. It also had a pretty potent smell. The crème brûlée cheesecake got me so I ordered one. When the waitress described the size, I thought it a small for me to finish in a few bites however it turned out to be just an ordinary slice. It had strawberry sauce all over it which was not described on the menu so I only had a couple bites. It wasn't as great as it sounded. Service was awesome however it can get quite busy and I had to wait a bit for simple requests like a refill and the check. It's definitely convenient to eat at but it's not super amazing.

    This was place was amazing, great place for a company gathering the staff was nice the food however was mediocre. I ordered a chicken BLT the chicken was dry and the bread was hard . However the Donut was one of the most delicious things I have tasted.

    Always amazing for brunch. The food is consistently delicious (get the breakfast potatoes thank me later!) and the mimosas are amazing. It's never crowded and the staff is super sweet.
