    100/10! Between the service, the vibe and most importantly the product, this place was amazing! Loved the atmosphere with plenty of seating and space indoors and out. Tried the hard kombucha which was excellent as well as the mimosa kombucha, also tasty! I cannot say enough great things, get here ASAP!

    Had an amazing experience at Lenny Boy Brewing Co.! The atmosphere is so inviting, the vibes are always on point, and the space creates the perfect setting to relax, connect, and enjoy a great time. Their event space is awesome -- spacious, unique, and perfect for community events, gatherings, or celebrations. Definitely one of our favorite spots in Charlotte

    Kombucha brewery and beer! Love that. Literally the best kombucha I've ever had. They have a huge back room which houses cool events. Staff has always been kind and the vibes are relaxed. Nice outdoor space too. The food looks awesome and great prices.

    Came here for improv night with my wife for an impromptu date night. Parking is very limited. Had to make several laps before a kind gentleman guided us to some unmarked parking. Very old school barn door bar kind of feel to the place. We didn't hang out in the main bar area as the improv was in the, I don't know what to call it area. Beer selection is good, bar food was excellent and came out quickly. We had a really nice time and I recommend visiting if you are in the area.

    Came in on a Saturday night and it was pretty dead. I liked all the plants everywhere. Surprised our beer was served in plastic cups when we were sitting indoors. Beer was ok. Good vibe though and they have lots of choices for beer and kombucha.

    My first visit here and I was meeting a large group for a holiday party. Staff was great and had an area toward the back *roped * off for us. It was a rainy Sunday evening, so they were not busy, and there was plenty of space to mingle. They obviously have beer but also kombucha ( they are well known for this), wine, and a few specialty cocktails you can choose from as well. I had the hot chocolate with Baileys, and it was fabulous. They do offer some food options as well. Will definitely go back another time as they have a spacious outdoor area I would like to try on a sunny day. Did not get a photo of that as it was pouring rain all night!!

    We finally made it here. Love it. Great sandwiches and pretzels. The brews are even better. IPAs for hubby. Stouts and kombucha for me. They even have your choice of kombucha as a mimosa. Delicious!

    Good fun, friends and solid beers. Saw a wrestling show here and service was impeccable and there was good vibes throughout. Good weather so hung out back on patio

    So I fell IN LOVE with Lenny Boy on Sunday. It's a freakin plant oasis in there and I just wanna move in with all my plant babies! I got to chat it up with Phillip at the bar about the plants and their plant history and also beer history. He was great, so helpful, informative and welcoming! Really made us feel like friends :) Of course I tried the "booty call" beer first! Loved it! Also tried the Citraphilia and really enjoyed that one too. We topped our beers off with a pretzel and beer cheese and great convo. Going back to Lenny Boy often!

    Great location that is well marked, and has a parking lot. They offer kombucha, year round beers, and limited releases. Dogs are welcomed outside. Service is friendly. Food is just alright, but is very reasonably priced. Beer is decent.

    Stopped by after a dinner date for some kombucha and discovered it was $10 flight night. Staff was super nice and helped me pick out my pours. They gave the option to taste samples so you could figure out what you liked. I ended up adding one I really didn't care for and they allowed me to swap it out with no hassle. Parking lot is pretty big, inside is spacious and the bathrooms are clean. I wish I had room for a pretzel but I was stuffed from dinner. I'd love to come back and try yoga night. An attendee told me it was $5 to participate and you get a free drink ticket to redeem after class.

    $10 pitchers on Friday's!

    I was in the mood to try and possibly find a new gem in the city and saw this place. The pics…read morelooked good and the reviews seemed to be good as well. This place gets one star from me. The food was extremely mediocre in taste and portions. I ordered the two-taco combo plate that comes with two sides. I chose Mexican Rice & Refried Beans as my side and the tacos I chose were Birria. Let's start there. There is no option to order anything other but the same two tacos so for example, I wanted to order one chicken and one birria or one shrimp taco and one birria taco, that option was not available. Most places allow you to customize your taco orders. I arrived to pick up my food and noticed the bag was NOTICEABLY light...which is a stark contrast to when I order this same kind of meal from my regular go to taco spots. I get home and start taking the food out of the bag and the taco presentation was good. They looked good and had pretty much what you would expect to be on them. I then go to open the containers that had my sides and noticed that the containers barely had any sides in them. I'm talking about the containers were less than half full of the rice and beans...to where it looks like they only put a couple of spoonfuls in each container. Which explains why the bag was so light. The rice looked like the typical Mexican rice and smelled about the same. It tasted very average, nothing special. The refried beans however, had no texture to them and looked like someone just put all the beans into a blender and turned them into a thick paste of some sort. They were completely flavorless and also didn't have the layer of cheese on top on them that most authentic places put on there. The three tacos were also very flavorless. The meats had absolutely NO flavor to them which is crazy for a birria taco. They were full enough with meat, salsa, onions, etc. but the meat had very little seasoning. I also found two VERY hard and sharp pieces of BONE in one of my birria tacos. I have braces and thought one of my back brackets had come loose. Imagine my surprise when I spit everything out and saw a decent chuck of bone shard. I set i aside and took another bit of ended up with yet another piece, albeit smaller, of shard in my mouth. As someone who moved here from Los Angeles and prior to that lived in Texas, this place just doesn't cut it for tacos. Not even for a chain restaurant quality of tacos. It's just like so many of these trendy restaurants popping up all over Charlotte with mediocre food trying to make a quick buck before it's eventually shut down for whatever reason . I'll be sticking to my two go to places which are very authentic taco spots where I have NEVER been disappointed. They are little pricier, but quantity and quality are worth it at this point. I have attached pics and you can see the pathetic amount of rice and beans that they gave me in that entire container, smh. You can see it from the top view and the side view where you can see the shadow lines of how full the containers were. For comparison, the container was about the size of a medium Mac N Cheese from Chick-fil-A. Rice and beans are literally the CHEAPEST items to acquire and add to meals so being stingy with them is a really bad look.

We were seated pretty quickly on the patio. It was a nice breezy evening perfect for alfresco dining. Initially our service was fast. Our server came over. Took care of our water brought our additional drink orders and then took our order for food, but then it took a while. Eventually we did get it and I was surprised how well I liked the refried black beans and their rice I opted for their Birria tacos and they were very flavorful and the consommé was delicious. My husband opted for the fish tacos and well he had to fish for the fish in the fish tacos. It was very little and that was very disappointing. I asked him if he would return and he said he would, but he would either not get the fish tacos because they don't have near enough fish to be called a fish taco or he would ask that they put an adequate amount of fish in the taco. It was more slaw and cilantro than fish. But he did agree that the refried black beans were extremely delicious and the rice was very flavorful as well. We both like their chips, which are served with their house salsa. I was not a fan of the salsa. I like mine with a little bit more sweet nod, but my husband did enjoy the salsa. Overall, it was a good first time experience and I usually give a restaurant 2 to 3 tries before I figure if they're just not for me so we'll definitely come back again

I originally was going to place the order online, but they're online option said it was unavailable so I went inside and sat down at the bar. The service was OK though it seemed most people did not speak English, which is fine. It just made it kind of harder to communicate. That said the food was decent but the reason why I gave two stars was because I feel very misled on pricing. The menu showed Que Siberia tacos three for $12. Steak/Asada tacos for three dollars which brings my total to 15+ the two drinks. I thought she said it was $20.80 so I paid it with my card and gave her five dollars cash for a tip. I get to the car just to double check the transaction and she charged me 3499 on my card and took the cash. I went back inside to confront her about this advising. She completely overcharged me, and she only offered to give my six dollars tip back to me. I am now going to dispute the transaction with my bank because I was unable to resolve this issue.

Tacos El Nevado came highly recommended, so I headed over for lunch with high hopes. The restaurant was packed when I arrived around 1:30 p.m., which is usually a good sign. It appears to be a converted fast-food building with its own parking lot, outdoor patio, and a casual, family-friendly atmosphere. Despite the Charlotte heat pushing triple digits, the dining room was comfortable and bustling. Service was friendly from the start, and I was quickly seated with ice water, lemon, fresh chips, and three house-made salsas. The chips were excellent--fresh, crisp, and clearly made in-house. The standout salsa for me was the red salsa, which packed plenty of heat and flavor. There was also a tomatillo salsa and a creamy green avocado-style salsa. Both were good, although the tomatillo leaned a little too tart for my taste. The menu is extensive, with everything from seafood dishes and quesadillas to tacos and larger combination plates. As someone who loves sampling a little of everything, I was hoping for more traditional combo options, but this menu takes a different approach. I ordered the crispy taco plate with rice and beans. The presentation was attractive, with the tacos served upright in a metal rack alongside refried beans and Mexican rice. The rice and beans were both delicious and easily the highlight of the plate. Where things got mixed for me was the taco filling. I was expecting a straightforward seasoned ground beef taco, but the beef filling tasted more like a guisado-style preparation with a softer texture and a slightly tangy flavor profile. It may simply be a regional style or a misunderstanding when ordering, but it wasn't what I had anticipated. The chicken taco, however, was excellent. Tender, flavorful, and clearly made with higher-quality chicken than you typically find in a crispy taco. After trying it, I immediately wished I had ordered all chicken. While this visit didn't completely win me over, I don't think it's fair to judge a restaurant by one dish. The packed dining room, friendly service, fresh chips, excellent salsas, and strong chicken taco all suggest there's more to explore here. Next time, I'd skip the crispy beef tacos and dive into the street tacos or some of the house specialties that seem to be what many regulars were ordering. Tacos El Nevado didn't become my favorite Mexican restaurant in Charlotte on this visit, but it earned a second chance. Life is too short not to eat well, Charlotte. Keep exploring. Sometimes the next great meal is just one menu item away.
