My friends had the nachos and the flatbread and both were good. Two of them had beers and they both said they were good. Noise level was pretty high, but it's really geared toward the drinking crowd, so it's expected. Wait staff is really nice and friendly. Nice place!

When you go in and get seated, you can simply grab what you want from the cooler and they will come up to you to open up your tab for food and drinks and offer a glass to pour your drink into. I had the Strawberry Fields salad that was really good! I was not a huge fan of the croutons because they were harder than expected, but overall, the salad was delicious and refreshing! I was told they have a pretty good brunch, so I definitely plan on returning for that! I highly recommend this place if you want to hang out with friends, have some good drinks, and a good time!

We started with the large Bavarian pretzel, served warm with queso and spicy mustard--perfect for sharing. The Boar's Head pastrami sandwich was outstanding, piled high with jalapeño-kraut, melted Swiss cheese, and Russian dressing on toasted marble rye. The Hot Mama pizza was a standout: classic cheese pizza topped with Italian sausage, honey, and fresh basil (I skipped the red pepper flakes--just a personal preference). A great spot for good food, good drinks, and a relaxed vibe. Check out the plates on walls and ceilings for people that drank a certain amount of different beers. We have a friend that is so close to adding to this restaurants collection! Enjoy!

Very interesting place, seems like a German influenced menu which I loved. Did I order a German…read moredish? No, I didn't and I should have. I tried to be a little healthy so I got the veggie burger and it was pretty dry. The fries were very good though. My son got a sandwich called Reuben-esque and he said it was delicious. It looked great. When I saw his plate I immediately regretted my decision. Menu prices were very decent at $12-$21. The staff here were attentive and the place was very clean. I would definitely come back so I give it four stars, one star knocked down for a dry veggie patty. I want to try the "German plate" for sure next time.

One of the things I love most is how dog-friendly it is. On one visit, they even hosted a shelter event with adoptable dogs - very heartwarming to see. It really adds to the welcoming, community-focused feeling. The space itself is another big plus--there's plenty of room to spread out, and the large tables make it comfortable for groups without feeling crowded. They always have a food truck on-site, which is a nice touch. Each time I've gone, it's been Hot Tamale, which I do enjoy, but it would be great to see a bit more variety in the food truck rotation. Overall, it's a laid-back, spacious, and inviting brewery with good beer and a great atmosphere. Definitely worth checking out!

It's not in my usual neighborhood hangout but easy to get to and in a good area by the university. Plenty of parking in the lot and they had a tamale food truck on site when I arrived. I ordered a soft drink from the bar and sat at a high top. It's a large open space inside and they have a good amount of patio seating too. There was a chess club going on and then later in the evening they hosted music bingo, so they definitely have a good lineup of regular activities going on. The bee was fun, a little short, but it's always interesting to learn new words, meet new people etc. I ordered some birria tacos from the food truck and enjoyed those. Overall it was a pleasant time. Not sure if I would make my way out here regularly but could be nice to add to the mix every now and then. @azfitfoodfun

The collard greens and fries are perfect sides. The short rib sandwich is outstanding. They have delicious cocktails and a huge selection of beer & wine. I tried a sunset sangria and it was absolutely refreshing! The desserts are good too. I've had the sticky cake with vanilla bean ice cream and all I can say is that I was tempted to order a second helping! The ambience is nice, not too noisy(although it's usually full of diners) it's rustic yet upscale with high tops, booths and tables. Nice for a date night, ladies night or large group. They also have outdoor dining with lovely umbrella covered tables. The service was great! Our servers were attentive and checked on us several times during our meal to make sure we were enjoying our experience.

It was a little loud and busy when we arrived but we were able to get a seat right away and a waitress was right there to take our order. She brought my uncle and I samples of beer and we all finally ordered. When she came back with the drinks she also took our food order. A short while later another waitress came by and brought us our food and asked if we wanted more drinks. We ordered another round and another different waitress bought us our new drinks. I really liked this system. I don't believe we had an assigned waitress, rather there was always a waitress around and willing to help. We had excellent service. I had the cheesesteak which was just OK. I was not a fan of how thickly sliced the peppers were and the meat seemed a little tough. However, my uncle's fish was absolutely excellent and the fries were good too. My husband got the monkey burger and he was very happy. My tater tots were very, very tasty. The beer we ordered was really good as well and the price could absolutely not be beat. I'm not sure if they were on special but five dollars a pint for those beers is unheard of, at least in Durham. I did not expect to find it so cheap in Charlotte. We had a wonderful experience here and would absolutely return!

In an effort to help someone else out, if you see Gianni Trattoria it's behind it. The door is not facing the parking lot but the back of Gianni Trattoria. Lots of group seating. Very loud. Good vibes. On one side is where you order your food on the other side is where you can order alcoholic drinks. My group was consistent with the food being okay, nothing exciting. They all really enjoyed their drinks. As there was no actual door I was chilled while there, it was a rainy and cool night. The rest of my group wasn't bothered though. I saw groups, families with kids and couples. Everyone appeared to be having a great time. This was a good spot for us to meet with our group of 6 people. It was easy to find seating that accommodated all of us.

This visit was to try out their Cabarrus County's March Burger Madness entry that run the entire month of March. But they always have food on sight. You order at the bar and they send a text to your phone to pick up at the food window. Bartenders and staff have always been friendly and helpful. Add them to your social media watch list to keep up to date with what's happening!! They are always planning great events that are family friendly.

Beer options were ok with some drafts but the most uncomfortable thing was with this girl I think named Genine. She came on to me and my girlfriend and clearly intoxicated and definitely being over served. She was covered in tacky tattoos and I would say at least mid 50s if not 60 and just obliterated. Some men seemed to attempt to hang around her but the whole time it was just very inappropriate and uncomfortable. Not sure if this is how they allow things here but we will not be back. The place is just too weird and dirty. I know that some obviously like it but not a place to just pick out for date night. No food available.

It was a Friday night two weeks before Christmas, but it was only 5:45pm so I feel like we got lucky. We were able to walk in and be seated right away. We ordered cocktails and embraced the tapas menu, ordering too many things to sample and share. We sadly had to leave some of it behind. Our waitress was a sweetheart and though the restaurant space was big and open, the warm wood and exposed brick inside made it feel welcoming and cozy. There was enough room between tables that we didn't feel crammed in and the table was big enough to hold all the delicious goodness. I felt like two top tables can sometimes barely hold your water glass and bread plate. We head to Charlotte pretty regularly for various things, and I would like to bring our teenage boys back sometime. I think they would really like the menu and style of the restaurant. Nice enough for a quick date night before and event, but casual enough that I feel like we could bring the teens and not have to "dress up".

As for the current menu: I really like the watermelon caprese salad, scallops, and curry chicken tacos.
