    Bar One checks off a lot of boxes that you would want in a cocktail lounge. Great drinks, knowledgeable bartenders, beautiful decor, and chill vibes. I originally came here for a drink before having dinner nearby, and most recently popped in before eating at their business partner 800 degrees pizza which is attached in the same building. They have a great combination of classic cocktails as well as their own unique creations. If you are having a hard time deciding the bartenders are happy to make recommendations and they are more than happy to go off menu if you can't find something on the menu. They can tailor a drink based on your tastes! Like most cocktail bars the drinks are a little pricy, but I can say it is well worth a trip here as it makes for a great evening. Even if you only want to stop in for one drink, it'll probably be one of the best you've had in a while!

    The food was a 7.5/10 for me. I got the red snapper, the inside was maybe not cooked all the way but i'm not sure if it was the way it was prepared because I usually eat this entree fried. My date said their food wasn't the best, he got the salmon, mac and broccolini. The ambience was a 9/10. They played hip hop and rnb the whole time and the crowed was mixed! I would recommend making a reservation or getting there early in the evening because the bar was packed and no tables were available when we arrived. Luckily we were able to be seated after about 10 min of waiting at the bar. Our waitress was very accommodating and nice. I will be back! And I will try a different entree.

    I think I've been trying to keep this gem to myself... Bar One is hands-down the spot for life's special moments. Somehow, I've never left a review until now! This is the place for cocktail lovers who appreciate an experience and aren't afraid to step outside of the box. I love bringing out of town guest here. Service is great, drinks are always delicious, and there's plenty of parking.

    looooved this restaurant near south park area!! the ambiance is beautiful but interior / seating limited. friendly service!! many appetizers to choose from and a good selection for the entree's too and they made substitutions for my mom who's vegetarian so that was nice! my favorite was the cocktail menu and how it had the history, aesthetic, and flavor of each drink in detail. would def come again.

    So cool. Extremely busy at 11pm on a Christmas weekday. I'm not from the area, but this was the only adult bar lounge around. Music was loud and almost a clubbing vibe. Drinks were expensive and so was the food. The ambiance is an older crowd but very classy and a good late night spot in charlotte. Felt very safe in the area. Gorgeous during the Christmas season.

    Such an interesting place. It is sort of a speakeasy but also not at all. It's a fancy bar but also a pizza place. Super chill and upscale decor and vibe. The service was good and pretty fast and it was the perfect volume of talking and background music. The drink menu is great and the food menu has plenty of options. I ended up deciding to get pizza halfway because of that is what the attached other restaurant is so I figured it should be good, and also because although I wanted to be at an upscale place I wasn't in the food for upscale food. I had the Honey Badger and it was excellent!

    I think I've posted a couple of reviews but being one of my favorite bars in the Southpark area, why not post another. Two things to keep in mind about this bar. Top-notch Mixology and top-notch service. Say less.

    Love the fact this spot has expanded! Popped in here with the girls on a Friday was delighted to see additions to the menu in the bar as well. We opted for the Brussels sprouts with honey balsamic viniagrette, the fries, and OVEN ROASTED wings with both Smoky Barbecue & 800 Signature sauces. DEEE-licious. Perfectly cooked and NOT overly sauced. So good, in fact, that we had several orders of each. This may be our weekend go-to spot from now on! The music played here tonight made this spot even better. The service--phenomenal.

    Appetizer Crab cake, meatballs, side greens salad

    Salad was simple but 10/10. Other appetizers were decent. Nothing to rave about. Crowded and loud in front area on a Friday night. Back area was more calm.

    Stopped by to take a look at the new extension which opened up today. They did a good job making it match the vibe and decor of the original section - can't even tell. Every time I come here on a Thursday or Friday there's always a nice crowd, but not overly crowded. They have a great drink menu and the pizza is so enjoyable! I told the bartender I wished my drink was sweeter and he didn't waste a minute in offering to remake mine to my taste. Service here is great. Now that they have so much more space I'll def come back here with a group! *They take reservations for the booths and tables but seats at the bar are first come first serve Parking Free valet until 11pm. Otherwise many spots around the plaza but it can be difficult to find a spot if you come at prime time.

    The food was okay but not great. The restaurant ambiance is a little loud and the seating is a little cramped. You cant have an intimate conversation without the table next to you hearing what you say. The server was very nice and friendly.

    This location literally changed my whole mood.... From all girls just want to have fun to "Where am I" the atmosphere is very unfriendly. The manager never spoke to us and he was basically near us the whole night. The bartender never came back to check on us.... At this point I'm over the whole night. Very unfriendly and extremely rude. I read the previous review but gave it a chance anyway. Do not do what I do read and believe my review.

    This place blue my mind…read more I was visiting my best friend while in town for a conference on amusement ride standards. We had a reservation for Blue Door for Saturday night, and it was amazing. Now while she was vaguely aware of their "spirited kingdom" menu, I had NO CLUE. It was the best surprise! They have such a cool menu with a full theme park map containing 4 lands with 4 cocktails each. The cocktails all match the type of ride they are, it's honestly such a cool idea, and it was so well done. I loved the art. I will say, I was skeptical that all of their drinks would actually work and worried that they'd be too caught up in the theme to make results but . . . Oh my goodness I was so impressed by the drinks here. I think a lot of bars these days can get so caught up in trying to be unique that their drinks become nearly undrinkable. This place definitely doesn't suffer there. They brought us an aperitif when we came in, but unfortunately I have a blueberry allergy so we skipped that. We had 4 drinks between the 2 of us and they were all awesome. I ordered the star breaker and the green dragon (what can I say, I love gin and a good coaster), and they were both balanced and tasty. My friend got the diablo and the neon shift, and they were both fantastic as well! The neon shift was served with a black light too which was super cute. The one drink I have to call out specifically is the green dragon. There was something about this drink that was so unique, I have genuinely never had anything like it but I would order it a thousand times over. It's so good. It keeps me up at night. It haunts my every bar order. I will be writing home about it. What else can I say about this place - the service was great, the atmosphere was fun, and the DJ was amazing. I thought "wow this guy really likes sax covers" only to look over and see him PLAYING HIS SAXOPHONE LIVE?? Iconic. This place was perfect and I wouldn't change a thing about it. The spirited kingdom menu will only be around for 6 months according to the waitress, so definitely catch it while it's there! If I'd heard about it sooner, I would've maybe descended upon them with 200+ theme park engineers in town for the conference (maybe it's a good thing I didn't know they were there until after it was over), but instead I will just say DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND MAKE YOUR RESERVATION NOW

The menu this time is theme park theme... again, a fun concept but not well executed. Pretty overwhelming, especially with the bartenders explaining the menu to us twice with the same spiel there is too much to look at it makes it difficult to pay attention to the drinks. I really did not love my drink (starbreaker?) you could only taste the lychee The bartenders not a vibe, it was not that comfortable to sit at the bar. They now serve food, hotdogs... which do NOT match the vibe at all, so that was interesting that their only food (other than the free popcorn) is not hot dogs..

    I had high hopes for this restaurant when I made a reservation for Valentine's Day, but…read moreunfortunately, the experience fell far below expectations. While I take full responsibility for arriving 15 minutes late, I was shocked at how rudely the hostess--who we later learned was the manager--handled the situation. Rather than a simple acknowledgment of the delay, or improbability of getting a table, she made a point to shame us, emphasizing that accommodating us would be an extra burden for her. This set an uncomfortable tone from the start. When she begrudgingly seated us at a table that had somehow magically become available, she made another unnecessary comment, implying that I should do my part to not make her job so difficult again. My partner was immediately put off and suggested we leave, but I decided to give the restaurant another chance, assuming the manager might just be having a rough night. Unfortunately, things did not improve. The food, best described as uninspired frozen bar fare from the main Duckworth's kitchen, took over 30 minutes to arrive--and even then, it was served before our drinks. When the drinks finally did arrive, they were nothing exceptional. I ordered a French 75, and my partner had a Paloma, only to realize that even the drinks had come from downstairs at Duckworth's. Given the restaurant's supposed reputation, I was surprised that it didn't have its own bar, unlike how things are set up at The Cellar. The only redeeming aspect of our visit was our waitress, who was pleasant and professional. However, what puzzled us the most was that despite the manager's initial reluctance to seat us, nearly half of the restaurant remained empty throughout the evening. With at least three or four servers working in a relatively small space, it was clear that staffing wasn't the issue--so why the hostility? It was hard not to wonder if other potential diners had been similarly turned off by the manager's deplorable attitude and the underwhelming menu. Overall, the experience left a bad taste in our mouths--both literally and figuratively. Between the lackluster food and drinks, and the uncalled-for attitude from management (she is bald and was wearing a dress on the evening of 2/14/25 at 9:30PM-11PM), I cannot recommend this place to anyone looking for a pleasant dining experience.

The drinks were bomb and ambiance was perfect!!! When: Friday at 5:00pm, party of 2 Overall: 4.8/5 Food: 4.5/5 - we got the bbq chicken flatbread. It was pretty good but not a standout for us. The drinks are what really shine here but it was still very nice to have food to pick from since we were starving! Drinks: 4.8/5 - Same mixologist as the Cellar At Duckworths so i knew these dunes were going to be fire and i was correct. We got the paloma which was yummy with fresh grapefruit juice. I think i got the dirty collins which was a lighter drink but not overly sweet so it was perfecttt!! I was eyeing the pisco sour too but will have to try that next time. Service: 4.8/5 - Since it was their soft opening I either expected mediocre service or top of the line. Thankfully I received the latter! Saturn was a wonderful server who provided great recommendations for drinks and kept checking in on us. She was super sweet and hospitable! Vibes: 4.8/5 - definitely get a seat in the bar area if you can. It feels more intimate and cooler..! we were seated in the dining room which was still nice and more quiet but i think it would have been more fun for us personally to be closer to the bar to watch them make drinks and overlook the road by the windows. The place is just like a modern day cocktail lounge! Other: free parking garage in the same building! It is inside of Duckworth's but up the stairs.

    Wow what an experience! I'm in Charlotte for the weekend, and my good friend's colleague…read morerecommended we come here after dinner for drinks. 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.

It's a small intimate setting and I do love the dark aesthetic they did. Gives it a swanky vibe and makes a great date spot. But they were burning incense in the tiny space and it was overwhelming. The other bar guests sitting next to us agreed. *They did finally pick up on it and the staff moved it toward the kitchen door* Staff was friendly as well, though, it was busy and looked as if they had a trainee in tow, so attention was lacking just a bit. So why we came: The drinks were average to me. One was weird (Pineapple Fried Rice) and I just couldn't get it sit well on my palate - and I tried - sip after sip. But the mixologist saw my struggle and swapped it out for a different one. I did like the Don't Shy Away - it was an interesting take on a margarita with a strong carrot base. The Whispering Dove was a take on a Paloma and I couldn't find the lemongrass infusion on my palate. So I found it pretty basic, but pricey. So overall, decent. And I might stop buy if I was stuck in the area again.

We were told that we would need to go to the bar for our hookah and drink needs. That ordeal was horrible for the rest of 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.

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.
