RH Rooftop in Charlotte is hands down the best-looking restaurant in the city. Walking through feels more like touring a museum than going out to eat -- the building and furniture are incredible. Parking is easy and the whole experience of just being in the space makes it worth checking out. The rooftop is on an actual roof but there's not much outdoor seating, so most of the vibe is inside. Food was good overall, but uneven. The Branzino was excellent and easily the best dish of the night. The grilled shrimp were solid and worth ordering. The Asian salad was fine, nothing special but fresh. The Ribeye was average at best -- cooked fine but missing the flavor you expect when you order a steak here. All in, this place is more about the setting than the food. The meal won't blow you away across the board, but the atmosphere makes up for it. Great spot for a night out if you want to be impressed by where you're eating. read more

Charlotte's RH Rooftop has been on my must go list for years & I'm glad I finally made it. As someone who loves to be surrounded by beauty as often as possible, RH was a top-tier treat for all of my senses. From the swanky yet inviting exterior that gave more of a West Coast vibe and made me momentarily forget that I was in the QC, to the gorgeous decor that RH is known for, to the fabulous chandeliers that made me swoon...and all of this before I made it to the food! The rooftop area was gorgeous, service was great, and food was impeccable. My group started with a round of server-selected apps--we asked for his top three & Sir more than delivered. Creamy burrata, perfectly crisp artichoke (with potato slices mixed in as an unexpected & delicious touch), & some of the BEST grilled shrimp I've ever eaten. I rounded this out with the mini lobster rolls--not mad at the generous dollop of caviar to balance the tender creaminess of the lobster & crème fraiche--and truffle fries. I look forward to many happy returns. Cheers! read more

As many people have stated before, the place is gorgeous! Such a nice ambiance. We ordered the burrata plate and it was decent. I'm not a big fan of peppers but I tried it and it was decent. Not the best I've ever had but not the worst. The Caesar salad was delicious! The shrimp were well seasoned and the burger was delicious as well. The mashed potatoes were decent but maybe not something I would order from. It was a nice experience but not sure I would "have" to go back. But if someone said they were going there for an event I wouldn't be upset about it. The only thing I would say that's negative is the to go options are terrible. I had left over mashed potatoes and they gave me a huge box to take home. I asked if they had a bowl and the best they could do was a to go coffee cup. For the amount of money you spend there, you would think they had decent options for takeout. read more

This was my first time visiting. Let me say, the decor is gorgeous. I wish I had taken more pictures but I was already running late. I was part of a group there to celebrate a friend's birthday. Our table was situated on the third floor. The weather was perfect for being up there with the exposed air. The service was satisfactory. Our server got the job done but was not super attentive. One of the people in our group ordered bottles of Prosecco for the table to share. If you're planning a visit, be aware that they only serve beer and wine. I ordered the salmon for dinner. It was tasty but nothing to rave about. I also ordered a side of pureed potatoes. Both items were incredibly light. I'm a pretty light eater but I was able to finish my meal without feeling stuffed. I also tasted some of the broccolini that someone else ordered. Overall, while the vibe is super cute, I'm not sure that the quality of food and service makes up for the priciness. It was a nice evening to celebrate a special occasion. But I can't say that I will be in a rush to return. read more

Such a nice and pleasant experience, didn't think there was such a nice and elegant restaurant located in Nc Charlotte. The atmosphere was just so elegant and so peaceful with the fountain running. Not to many people when we came here. The fish was my favorite, I honestly was surprised there was no bones in the fish.. The restaurant is a bit pricey but for special occasions it's worth the atmosphere read more

Absolutely loved this place. The atmosphere was incredible and had a lovely outdoor seating area. We loved the store below as well and the dreamy bar. Every portion we ordered was delightful and tasty! The crispy artichokes were definitely the star of the show and were the highlight. I think next time my husband and I might order two portions! The burrata was perfect as well, so creamy and delicious. My Chinese chicken salad was wonderful too! Only downside of this visit was the speed of service, which may have been because the kitchen was backed up because they seemed a bit busy. My entree was brought out 15 minutes before my husband's, which was a chicken sandwich, that we found a bit odd. Thankfully and very kindly, our served removed the sandwich from our bill. Overall, will return due to the high quality of food! read more

We had a reservation, but we would be arriving earlier than anticipated. I called to see if they could seat us sooner, and they accommodated us. Upon arriving, we were pleasantly greeted by several people at the hostess's desk. The decor and entire atmosphere were beyond pleasing. I loved not only the floor-to-ceiling windows letting in all the natural light, but the crystal chandeliers throughout. We were seated immediately. We were then escorted to our table, where our phenomenal server, Dennis, came to greet us and take our drink, appetizer, and entree orders. We had a Caesar Salad, which was good. The lettuce was cold, crispy, and fresh. Our entrees were the RH Burger, Fried Chicken Sandwich, and Sweet Potato Fries. Everything we ordered was delicious. A young lady named Nivea walked by, and she complimented me. I thanked her for her compliment. She then asked if we were there celebrating a birthday, anniversary, etc. I then told her I was celebrating my final cancer treatment. She then began to affirm my courage, strength, and ability to fight to live through that. It was then that she expressed how inspired she was by my situation, and she paid for my meal. I thought that was so kind of her. I will never forget that. I cannot wait to go back and try some of the other food choices they offer. read more

RH Roof Top Restaurant/ furniture store Very nice atmosphere, ambience and scenery. Wasn't so happy with the food. Appetizer Asian chicken salad dry not enough dressing the waiter took too long to bring the dressing back. I ordered my salmon to be cooked medium-well, my salmon came out seared and raw in the middle, I was disappointed they cooked me another piece and it was way smaller than the other pieces of salmon, overpriced. Our waiter was nice read more

First of all, this restaurant has the best setting, the garden feeling on the rooftop is amazing. It has a lot of light and felt great just to be seating here. Then the great part is that the service is amazing, excellent or whatever word that describes a great service. The staffs are on point. Then the slightly disappointment comes from the food, the food are good but not that fine dining type of good. I think the high price is for the environment not for the food. I will come back on special occasions to enjoy the setting and service, food is just ok. read more

RH Rooftop Charlotte: Where Elegance Feels Effortless From the moment you walk into RH Charlotte, you realize this isn't just a restaurant, it's a statement. A stunning, architectural love letter to elegance. Think soaring ceilings, crystal chandeliers glinting from above, a replica fountain reminiscent of RH's flagship in Chicago, and olive trees placed so perfectly they almost feel like part of the design blueprint. It's a space that manages to be both inviting and elevated, luxurious without being the least bit cold. Our service was equally polished. Chy took care of us with the kind of attentive charm you wish more places had, and Faith, the manager, stopped by our table to ensure everything was seamless. Hospitality at its finest. Drinks with Intention - We started with two featured cocktails. The riesling by Thomas Hagg was delicate and understated--smooth, floral, and balanced. A quiet kind of sophistication in a glass. The Rosé Spritz offered a brighter note, light, fragrant, and just sweet enough to keep things interesting. Entrées That Deliver - I ordered the braised chicken, and it was exceptional. The garlic--yes, full cloves--was perfectly roasted, mellow and rich, infused into a sauce that felt like something you'd find in a tucked-away French bistro. The chicken itself was incredibly tender, practically melting, and rested over a bed of buttery potatoes that completed the picture without trying to steal the spotlight. We also had the steak, served with a side of flake salt--a thoughtful touch I have personally never seen before. It was perfectly marbled, cooked just right, and simply seasoned to let the cut speak for itself. We paired it with truffle fries, which could hold their own as a dish. Crisp, aromatic, and indulgent without being over the top. A Dessert to Remember - We closed the evening with the butterscotch crème brûlée, and it was one of the best I've had. Silky, rich, and beautifully balanced between sweet and warm notes. The top was crisped to perfection--no burnt sugar here, just a golden shell that shattered like glass under the spoon. Final Thoughts - RH Rooftop Charlotte delivers more than a meal--it delivers a mood. It's the rare combination of atmosphere, service, and quality that makes a place memorable. The attention to detail, the ambiance, the restraint in the menu--it's all intentional and beautifully executed. If you're in the Charlotte area looking for something elevated but approachable, refined without being rigid, this is the place to go. Bring someone you enjoy good conversation with, dress well, and let RH Rooftop do the rest. read more

This was our first time here and it was a fantastic visit. We came here for our Anniversary, upon entering we was greeted graciously from the and directed to the 3rd floor. The atmosphere is breathtaking from the trees to the flowing fountain in the middle of the room. We had a very informative waiter who made many good suggestions. Our food was hot scrumptious looking. We had a very good time. read more

This place is beautiful inside and out. The staff is nice. The service is good. But the food is definitely expensive and pricey. I'd say it's worth it to go only once but I don't recommend going again. It isn't worth it. The food wasn't good. I went for brunch and it was alright. Parking is available on the street. read more

Honest review: RH rooftop is sadly a disappointing restaurant. The Perception and reality of this restaurant is that social media and Instagram likes doesn't mean the quality and service is up to par. Regardless of price or not, there are so many things that can be improved upon for the price value. When a restaurant is perceived as "Instagram-light" but is disappointing, it signifies a misalignment between its marketing and reality, leading to a broken customer expectation. The restaurant excels at creating an aesthetic image for social media, attracting customers with visually appealing environment and decor, but fails to deliver on core aspects like food quality, taste, or a positive dining experience, resulting in a poor in-person experience Food quality is generic and poor compared to other restaurants at this price point. Service is bad and below standards in comparison to medium and high end restaurants in the area. Example: we came to celebrate my wife's birthday and my wife order the recommended steak by the waiter then brings back a "well done" steak when she specifically asked for it to be cooked "medium". The waiter had the nerve to say the steak is cooked correctly,and due to the lighting it looks "well done". She ultimately declined to even redo the steak since they were justifying themselves, she decided not to eat. At the end they agreed her steak was too well done. On the other hand now they told me that my steak was cooked perfect, "medium", even though mine was well done (see pics). They came back and gave me a raw steak, waiter noticed I wasn't eating it and then takes it back and try's to recook it but still comes back medium raw. At this point I was ready to leave. The icing on the cake was when they brought out 1 cookie with a candle on it for her birthday. Talk about a cheap restaurant!!!! We easily paid over $400 plus 20% gratuity for horrible services and we only had 7 people. They did remove both of our steaks since my wife no longer wanted it and I took only two bites of mine. (Thank you for that), but the birthday celebration was ruined! Ambiance is okay, definitely loud and hard to carry conversation if you are in a large group. Decor is definitely top notch! (No criticism there) Our waiter, needs more training in personality and service. If you don't want to serve people why the hell are you even in the service industry. Having an entitled attitude from a service industry worker can be especially jarring because it violates the unwritten social contract of hospitality. No manager ever approached us due to our steaks not being cooked properly. Not even to apologize for the inconvenience of the situation, especially knowing we are celebrating my wife's birthday. One of my colleagues at the bank referred RH, but I will be communicating and advocating not to come here!!!!! PS. Just come take pictures and go eat somewhere else. read more

Went to enjoy my nieces birthday and was expecting more . The best part of RH is the ambience. . I did not know they didn't sell liquor drinks only beer and wine . The wine was over priced for the quality. The service was avg and the meals servers constantly got the orders mixed up . Food was simple and 50/50 as fare as taste . My ribeye steak was excellent however the salmon was tasteless and lack seasons . The Asparagus was excellent and the fries was very much like good hot McDonalds fries . The desert (Homemade chocolate chip cookies) seem to be reheated end of the night cookies vs fresh one . The bill ( Approx $400 ). The meal /service was worth $200 at best . Not planning to return . read more

RH Rooftop Restaurant - Pre-Cut Ribeye , asparagus and fries - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

A great-looking restaurant that could use a better menu, RH Rooftop makes you feel like your in a grand European bistro, with gorgeous decor and amazing rooftop views from the open-air patio. The abundance of glass on the walls and ceiling floods the dining room with light, making this a great spot to celebrate a special occasion on a beautiful day. But despite the restaurant's impressive ambiance, the food and the service left us a bit underwhelmed on a recent visit. Heavy on salads and sandwiches, the menu just didn't have any entrees that jumped out at us as 'must-trys', and while my $32 Mulholland Drive Salad was decent, nothing about our entrees would make us want to rush back. Add in the distressing fact that RH doesn't have a full bar for cocktails, and this feels like a really nice, but very overpriced, lunch spot. It may be a good option if you're looking for a spot to impress friends or family from out of town, but for the price, there are much better restaurants in the Queen City. read more

A good one time experience for the ambiance. It was very pricey but we knew that. Other than that it is definitely a nice time

My time at RH Rooftop had been splendid, I enjoyed the beautiful atmosphere and the food I had ordered. I am well pleased at how I am treated, though it is preferred to do reservations beforehand.... They accept walk-in customers on a waited time. read more

Beautiful esthetics... that's probably the best thing they got going for them. We sat in a little round table close to the fountain, which was an uncomfortable seat. My feet didn't have anywhere to rest if I scoot up close enough to eat at the table as the pedestal from the table left no room. With having heels on it was uncomfortable. The water was also trickling on us a bit from the fountain. I ordered the lobster roll which was a good size and it was pretty good. The grilled shrimp starters were good as well. They were my favorite. I also had the broccolini which was good. Nothing was great or anything to want to return for honestly so I think it's cute for a special date, maybe just for wine and small plates. The service was good so no complaints there. read more

It was good - the ambience in the restaurant itself is nice and the waiter we had was attentive, kind and willing tp provide recommendations! I ordered one of the salads with shrimp and that shrimp was cooked perfectly I mean PERFECTLY. Lunch cocktails were tasty and my hubs got a burger with some sweet potato fries (also delicious) the pricey lunch is what you'd expect in southpark for that kind of people watching (lots of cute matching moms and little girls with plenty of Peter Millar golf shirt men with their raybans or tom ford glasses. *Yes, I use these examples as I counted at least 5-7 of each* Know what you're getting into and you won't be disappointed. The only real pain in the arse is the parking situation. Fancy folks can valet, we never like to do that so we had to find a spot a bit behind one of the buildings and walk in with wind/rain - - haven't walked around the store yet but was tempted on the way out... maybe next time :) read more

My friends and I visited the RH rooftop last month. The location is truly breathtaking. You get the chance to browse the store and take the elevator or steps up to the restaurant. The service was excellent and we had a great waitress who was attentive. The food here was just okay I don't think this is a place you go for excellent food. I think the major selling point is the aesthetic. It is a bit pricey for what you get food wise so a good alternative is just grabbing a drink or two. read more

I love this place for either a place to split a bottle of wine with a friend or a nice low-key dinner. Spring/Fall is the best, you can sit outside on the comfy dinner for wine. Inside is best for dinner. The menu doesn't have many options. The salmon has never let me down. I've also had the shrimp which were pretty spectacular. Always go with a reservation for dinner, they get pretty packed fast. read more

Beautiful space with nice menu. The service is friendly and attentive. The food is very good, a notch below great for the prices.

RH has an incredible building with a great view but mediocre food. RH seems like an Instagram hotspot where you go to show off your outfits, eat a salad, and have wine. The avocado toast and the salad were perfect. The cheeseburger was pretty pathetic, bland and the presentation was terrible. When my wife and I visited RH, the water wasn't working, so they couldn't do the dishes, and we weren't allowed to use the restroom for over an hour. They made us go across the street to another store, which we found weird. read more

Heard such great things about RH... simple menu done correctly, best gourmet burger in Charlotte, incredible service and atmosphere. Atmosphere was beautiful...25 pct of experience so A there. Everything else was just way off the mark... To start with...the wine list is 3.5x market price....I've paid 2 and 3x ...never 3.5x except for the finest steakhouses in NYC or Chicago. Menu ok...pretty simple and outrageously priced so gotta be good right...nope. Started with crispy artichoke hearts...$19. Dry, almost no substance to any of the hearts...greasy. was served with 2 thick slices of potatoe which was actually the highlight of the meal. At that point ordered the burger $18 which I heard such great things about, sautéed mushrooms $8 as a side, and black truffle potatoes $16 The burger was 2 overcooked patties with over salted tomatoes slices and 4 store bought pickles. Honestly, tasted like a diner burger. Potatoes were ice cold...tasted them and they were not good..mushrooms were oily and over salted...they did have a nice flavor. Out the door $110 with tip for a $20 GLASS of cab (sells for $18 a bottle), 1 beer, a diner burger, dried artichokes and oily mushrooms. Oh, and some Pelligrino. Service, not only slow with bad timing, literally removed said $20 dollar glass of wine with a sip and a half left. To make matters worse, they closed the gallery...then the elevator was stuck. And the manager was telling the host that the stairs could not be used. I cannot remember a more disappointing restaurant experience for a place I was really looking forward to. Would have gladly paid the prices...but I could name 10 gastropubs in Charlotte where you would spend half the money and get twice as good food, beer selection, and wine. Horrible experience. read more

First, the good about this place is that it is truly very nice inside. It sets the stage for great insta pics, especially in the evening. You can do this for free by simply just walking into the place from either the elevator or stairs and pic you spot for photos. Then, leave and dine elsewhere. I am always one to look at the glass half-full so the only take away is the atmosphere. Once we were seated, the experience began to head down the wrong path. It started first with our server. My sister-in-law ordered sweet tea. We were told they don't have sweet tea. My daughter then ordered the unsweet tea and just asked for splenda/sweet-in-low. When he returned, he brought the tea and a small pitcher that contained simple syrup. That is the very definition of sweet tea. Oh, and they don't have artificial sweetner packets. So that was the first facepalm moment. The next was when I ordered club soda with lime. They only offer bottled Pellegrino. What decent bar can't provide club soda? Moving onto to our meal. Things did come out in a reasonable amount of time except for my niece's entree. She and I ordered the same thing so I offered her half of my meal. 10 mins or so later, the server came by with her meal and apologized for the delay. But by that time, all of us were half way finished with our meal. For the prices they charge for the food, I would expect it to be better than the average pub. Nothing about my beef sandwich wowed me in any way. My sister-in-law had the shrimp cocktail and she said they were good but again, for the price, it wasn't worth it. Our server, in the meantime, was also scarce at best. My two daughters and nieces wanted to get a few pics, which they did. While my sister-in-law and I waited at the table, the server finally came by with 2 plates of cookies and a candle. He asked if we were celebrating a birthday. We said no so he said, well enjoy the cookies anyway, lit the candle and then walked away. Keep in mind that at this point it was just me and my sister-in-law sitting at the table. This should give you an idea of how much attention he really paid to our party. The cherry on top was when my oldest daughter had gone to the rest room. She had a boot on her foot due to an ankle injury. It got caught in the door as she was coming out of the restroom causing her to stumble. Two workers felt it was better to laugh as she fell rather than asking if she was okay. When she came back to the table to tell us that was it for me. Unfortunately, I was not able to find a manager. When we got home, my brother decided to call and talk to the manager directly. He has worked in customer service and to his credit said the manager needs to know so they can fix problems. He was very professional and the manager seemed receptive to his feedback. We were told that we would hear from the manager regarding possible credit for our meal. That was 10 days ago so I now feel the need to write this review. We never received any word back. My check for 3 adults it was $165 without drinks or appetizers. Needless to say, we won't ever go back. Final takeaway...feel free to visit the property and take advantage of many great photo spots. Then LEAVE and don't eat there. You will only come away completely disappointed. Update as of 3/31/22--Manager has contacted my brother and is issuing a full refund for our check. I felt it was only fair to make that point. My impressions of the restaurant remain unchanged but the manager did get back in touch with us so I did want to provide that update and go from poor to average for my rating. read more
