"A couple weeks ago I headed to Stoke for some cocktails with a few coworkers. This was the first time any of us had been and we were pleasantly surprised. We learned that the establishment places a large emphasis on being a part of the community by using local ingredients and serving products from the surrounding area. Stoke offers many of the Charlotte and North Carolina beers which placed the state on the craft brewery map. Some of the beers on tap include NoDa Brewing Company, Wooden Robot Brewery, Triple C Brewing Co. and Wicked Weed Brewing. They also have a great list of unique craft cocktails. Many of the cocktails on their menu are old classics with a twist. We learned that one of these concoctions, The Uptown Sour, intrigued a Marriott executive so much that he jumped on a plane so he could try it for himself! The desire to use local ingredients can also be seen in their food. We had a few of their appetizers (pretzel brioche, beef bone marrow, crispy oysters) which were all amazing. We could tell that this group understands the importance of top notch service when the Director of Eat Drink, Sean Potter, delivered our appetizers to our table providing us with an informative description of the ingredients and preparation techniques. The staff was friendly, helpful and attentive. I loved Stoke's open kitchen design which compliments the modern yet welcoming atmosphere very well. Although the restaurant is located within the Charlotte Marriott City Center, this is definitely not your average hotel restaurant. Chef Chris Coleman is doing a fantastic job which has created national attention. Stoke was listed on USA Today's Top 20 Restaurants to Try This Fall (2016) and that's a well-deserved accolade. You should definitely add Stoke to your must try list in Charlotte."

"When we walked in, we was greeted by a very nice person who suggested that we have a drink at the bar while we waited for a table. The lady at the bar was not very friendly. No eye contact. She looked annoyed by us askiing f they had any specialty drinks. She handed us a menu and walked away. I had to get her attention to even order my drink. After getting a drink, I asked if we were able to bring the drinks to the table or do we need to close out the tab? She said we needed to pay there, so we pay there After talking to the hostess he said we couldn't have just transferred the bill. We were seated it, and waited about another 5 to 10 minutes for menus then bread even came before the menus, then were told that the kitchen closed at 9 PM. Why did they allow us to make a 8:15 reservation wasn't seated to 835 didn't take our order until 8:50. We ordered the lobster soup, so excited to try. It had one small piece of lobster inside of the soup. Another person at the table had 3 pieces of lobster in there the soup. We ordered 3 medium.Well done and one medium rear. When our steaks arrived they were all medium rare, The kitchen was already closed so we didn't want to return our food and take a chance of not havinganythingto eat .We tried to eat them as much as we could.which was so sad because it was our 1st time visiting Mortons. Let's not talk about dessert Overall 1st experience at Morton's was disappointing. Waitress mary was very nice."

"le pain quotidien is a successful chain of Belgian caffes that knows the right mix of casual to have been baked with fine quality, to disreen and eat in general. this is a small lpq than most of the others, so it may feel a bit cramped, but in this area of maryland there are slim pickings for vegans. so it is comforting to drive here in the area of the fheights to the lpq. all menu items that are vegan are clearly marked with a carrot their daily suppe is always vegan! their brote are almost all vegan! but always check! I also like that they have desserts, and that they were trying new baked that are vegan (matcha / green tee muffin). they also have other desserts/sweet, such as puddings and the desert and in general can have the eating steep prices. but I feel that it is worth it, and I hope that it is! the people here are really helpful and nice, as well as patients must be considered in this part of the md! I would go back at any time when I am hungry and on the parking lot can be annoying, but metro is right there! the price is high, but it is worth knowing that it is vegan. the portions may vary, but I felt that the salat was huge, along with the brot, so I could not finish it even though it was delicious! the other side is sometimes when they go, they may not have the items that are vegan (i.e. the baked were) because they were sold out. but they are all good!"
