    Yuminess: 10/10 Allergy Safety: 10/10…read morePrice: 9/10 Atmosphere: 10/10 Service: 10/10 Overall: LOVE Postino! The food is over the moon delicious with plenty of options and reasonable serving sizes. Even with the slightly high price point, it is well worth every penny. And they take allergies SO seriously! Literally went through a bunch of ingredients to find what would and wouldn't be dairy-allergy safe. Atmosphere is fun but cozy, too. 100% recommend! In-depth: Postino has quickly become one of my favorite places in the CLT area after my 10/10 experience here. To start, the food. My word, it's amazing! Everything my friend and I tried was delicious. The bruschetta is 100% worth trying (the spinach artichoke one is my favorite), and the west coaster panini + romaine salad was tasty at every bite. Their wine is also good quality, with a decent-sized portion poured. Allergy safety is a major thing for them, too. Our server (Lee = the best waitress!) and her manager looked through their bread and ingredients for about 30 minutes to confirm what was and wasn't dairy safe (I asked how dairy allergies are handled for when I bring my husband next time). They also had quite a few gluten-free options, too. The manager explained that she wants people to be able to just come in and relax for a few hours without worrying if they'll get sick, which I truly, truly appreciate. Lee shared a similar sentiment, which was amazing. Now price... Yes, it is a *bit* pricey, but it is well worth it. Nothing felt lacking as far as flavor goes, and the allergy safety is a huge thing. This is one of the few places I felt my sandwich and salad were worth every penny, even if it was $17. Also, their rewards program is great. I got a free bruschetta board, and they offer several other perks. Make sure to sign up before or while dining there to get some good deals! In addition to their sincere care for allergy safety, the service is fantastic all around. They do group service, meaning you'll have several servers, and they encourage you to grab anyone if you have questions. This takes the pressure off of waiting for one server to walk by and really helped me relax. And the atmosphere? I could stay there all day! It's a really fun vibe, but the lighting and seating are very cozy. Overall, I've already recommended this place to 5+ people and will be returning soon

It currently offers free parking for 3 hours and incremental of 1- 2 hours paid parking after. My wife and I came here on a date night. While her original visit left more than be desired management invited us to give them a second try and I'm so glad we did. We had an amazing time from start to finish. The staff was amazing and I was astounded by their dedication to their craft. The best part was the food. We started with the chefs board which had an array of cheeses and spreads. The most memorable was the whipped feta. OMG. The Ambiance was the only thing I feel could use some tuning as there's not enough sound deadening to make the music out? It sounds like a heart beat and makes it hard to make out conversations. Major shout out to Leigh for taking care of us all night and making it a memorable night. Also big thanks to Odhie for the tickets to the concert. This was definitely a night to remember. Thank you Postinos Staff!

    I just got back picking up a to go order including a bottle of wine (Shelton, the house red) I…read moretried opening the bottle and the cork completely crumbled and disintegrated into the wine. Gross. Was not able to drink the wine as per my research, a disintegrated cork is indicative of a larger problem. I tried calling back multiple times but no one answered. UPDATE: I called multiple times the next morning too and finally got through to the rudest man I've ever had the misfortune of speaking to. He was in an immediate hostile, angry, and yelling state. I was bewildered. He said he was the owner. I told him what happened. He NEVER apologized. He was hostile and yelling when he told me to bring the wine back in if I wanted my money back. I told him driving with an open container was a felony but if he wanted to get it I could meet him in my neighborhood (where I could walk and hand it to him). He misunderstood and yelled that he's not coming over to my home. I knew then that there was something seriously wrong with this guy. He seems very MAGA which is ironic given that most of his patrons are "non-MAGA." I even called the police asking for assistance. They told me not to drive with an open container. I went to this place after reading the good reviews about the music and the wonderful service from the woman owner. So I asked to speak to the woman that was indicated as the owner. He angrily and loudly refused. I had to hold the phone away from my ear. He acted like I was at fault and bothering him. He was the one selling bad wine and greasy food (now I question the food after dealing with the owner). He told me not to come back. And I won't. He finally told me to pour out the wine and give him my Venmo details. But I just called back and left him a mailing address so he could mail back my money. I feel like crying and have a headache now. I don't deserve this. I feel like I've been punched. I have never been so disrespectfully treated.

I got there early and sat at the bar. Wasn't crowded yet so was served right away. I tried the spinach and artichoke dip and pepperoni flatbread, both were good. I didn't partake in any alcohol but they have plenty of wine options and a few cocktails as well. The whole vibe there is great for girls night, date nights or just solo. Great ambiance.

My wife, mother, and I came out on a Saturday night expecting a nice dinner, but there was a private event that had most of the bar closed and seemed to be getting most of the wait staff's attention. Unfortunately, this was not communicated in advance. I wish they had posted something on their social media pages so guests could plan accordingly. While the atmosphere was still pleasant, the overall experience felt a bit lackluster due to limited availability and service.

There's a plethora of seating including a few intimate reserved areas for special occasions. I also appreciate the open patio which has its own unique vibe. I just tried the HH bites. I ordered the Jerk Chicken Eggrolls. They were bland and had absolutely no flavor or seasoning. I was very disappointed but hungry. Another party also ordered all 3 eggrolls but they were burned and had hair in them. She sent them back and her claim was disputed by both the manager and bartender. The fact that the burned Eggrolls were not replaced without a triple check shocked me. I was flabbergasted. Based on that interaction she proclaimed she wouldn't return nor would I. I was disappointed in that interaction. I was going to order the lamb and pasta but decided against it.
