OK guys, this is the place to take her when you are really stumped for a special birthday or anniversary that's coming up in a month or two. It's expensive as hell, but well worth it. The McNinch House is one of Charlotte's best restaurants, located in historic 4th ward in a beautiful restored home. The service is attentive and... more

I came here for my 5 year anniversary with my husband, more than a year ago. I'm sure the business has gone down now, so then you had to book the table weeks ahead. This is a dinning experience, not really your casual dinner at a fancy restaurant. Once you've made a reservation, they send you an email asking what... more

Ate here for my birthday last week. My guest and I were 2 of 4 people in the restaurant on a Friday evening, which is not a good sign. However, the food was excellent and the service superb. We started with a crab tempura as an amuse bouche. Then an excellent garlic shrimp appetizer followed by a perfect salad and... more

I have a lot of restaurants to visit in Charlotte but so far this one is hands down the best dinning experience ever. You don't choose wine in this place, the wine steward pick them out for you because you'll screw it up...and if you don't like it then you can just leave, "Thank you very much". That's okay because... more

I wanted to impress some clients from the big city--Chicago with how fine dining is done in Charlotte. I had read all the hype and thought, wow, this will be a good choice. I was so embarrassed by my choice. The food was terrible and no imagination went into that menu whatsoever. Our dessert was plain awful, the food was... more
