    Birthday note - very nice touch!
    Natasha M.

    Exceptional experience! Everything from the food and service was excellent - we celebrated a birthday and the hand written note was a nice touch. Caviar cones - WOW! We ordered the twin lobster tails and larger filet and they created a nice surf and turf for us with clarified butter. The steak could've been cut with a fork - the best steak I've had at any steakhouse! Very nice elevated steakhouse decor. The servers seemed to work in a "partner" style system, as we had a number of people checking on us, delivering drinks, food, etc. Hope to visit the Philly location soon!

    By far the best steak I've ever eaten in my life! Nothing at this restaurant is bad. If my wallet allowed it I'd eat here at least once a month. Steak 48 is top notch. Romantic setting. Knowledgeable and friendly wait staff. You get what you pay for!

    Went for a birthday dinner. The whole experience was amazing. This restaurant is very intentional about the experience they offer their guest. Food was just delightful and delectable presentation was just amazing. Food is top-tier. You wanna go back I do hey Siri was just so nice. It's beautiful inside the restaurant.

    Had a great experience. Went on a Thursday evening and it was pretty crowded. The restaurant isn't too spaced out seating wise so everyone was kind of on top of each other but that did not take away from the dining. Our waitress was EXTREMELY knowledgeable about the menu: entrees, sides, and drinks which allowed us to make good choices as it was a first visit. All of the items we ordered were served properly and in a timely manner so that the food was enjoyed at prep temperature. There was a nice intimate setting with low lighting and music playing with a bar and televisions around the restaurant. Definitely planning a return!

    First class service from drinks to dessert. Great staff recommendations (our stellar server was Kayla) on cocktails, specials and perfect pacing. Delicious King Crab - expensive at $200 - but that was the best l've ever had outside of Hawaii. Sizzling lamb chops with perfect loaded potatoes, split for two. Turned a Friday night into a memorable celebration of life.

    Chicken Fried Lobster Tails

    We had an incredible experience at Steak 48 and can't recommend it enough! Unfortunately, Google Maps took us to the wrong address, so we ended up arriving about 20 minutes late for our reservation. We had called ahead to let them know, and they were so gracious and accommodating, which immediately set the tone for a wonderful evening. We were celebrating my husband's promotion at work and our baby on the way (I'm 6 months pregnant), and the staff truly made us feel special from start to finish. The rolls were delicious--especially the garlic rolls, which reminded me of Pizza Hut breadsticks in flavor (though not in texture). We started with the chicken-fried lobster appetizer, which came with three lobster tails and was absolutely fantastic. For our entrée, we split the 12 oz Wagyu filet, and it was hands down the best steak we've ever had. One detail we really appreciated was that the plates are served piping hot, which kept the steak warm throughout the meal and made every bite just as perfect as the first. Our side was the corn crème brûlée, and it was incredible--rich, sweet, and almost like having dessert with dinner. Speaking of dessert, we had planned to order one to share, but to our surprise they brought us two complimentary desserts! We enjoyed the Key lime pie and the ice cream cake, and both were outstanding. The biggest surprise of the night came at the very end when the manager (I wish I could remember his name) brought us a sweet baby gift--a rattle and a lovey. It was such an unexpected and thoughtful gesture that completely blew us away. Our server, Meredith, was wonderful--friendly, attentive, and made the entire evening feel effortless. Between the exceptional food, impeccable service, and the genuine kindness from the staff, this was one of the best dining experiences we've ever had. We'll absolutely be back to celebrate future birthdays, anniversaries, and other special occasions. Steak 48 exceeded every expectation!

    What an amazing experience it was to dine here, the staff 3ad all so nice and helpful. The menu selection is great with lots of steak options as well as a little bit of seafood. The sides were amazing, I'm looking forward to coming back and trying something new. I had the 22oz bone in ribeye and it was so good! The only thing I didn't like was how dark it was where I was sitting, but besides that I enjoyed my dinng experience and am looking forward to returning again.

    Such a beautiful experience. No pictures of dinner (rookie mistake). We arrived a little early for our reservation so we sat at the bar and had a drink. Once our table was ready, the hostess came to get us and took us to our table. Our waiter was phenomenal! He had great knowledge of the menu and was able to explain certain items and gave good recommendations. Dinner was great! The ambiance was better. Food was delish and we left with no complaints at all. Please check them out! Definitely great for date nights and anniversary dinners!

    A good steakhouse conveniently located offering a great food and drink menu. My wife and I came here for the first time to celebrate her birthday. I made a reservation for dinner on a Saturday and was clear about the reason of the reservation (to celebrate my wife's birthday). I received a confirmation and strict instructions about the dress code, which was mostly about formal/dressy code. The location is in South Park, which is one of the nicest areas in Charlotte. There is a free parking garage with plenty of spaces, but valet parking is also available. The hostess was very professional and courteous. We were taken to one of the two bars to sit, and we were surprised because we expected a table, so I requested one. They were very professional and immediately took us to one. However, we noticed there were about three different areas, and we were offered a table in the "sports" section in which there were 2 TVs playing football games and a bit of loud music (pop and rock from the 70s, 80s and 90s). The menu is great and has a lot of options of meat and some sea food. It also has good options of side orders, desserts, wines and cocktails.   We went for the 45-day dry aged bone-in ribeye, 12 oz. NY strip, corn creme brulee, heirloom tomato salad and burrata with two cocktails and a cake/ice cream dessert called Ultimate. Everything was delicious! The service was fantastic!  I definitely recommend it, but for the price we paid in a  fine dining restaurant, I would not want to eat watching ball games with that type of music and quite a few people around not following the dress code recommended (a few t-shirts with logos, a man wearing a cap, and another one wearing bermuda shorts. I don't want to sound I'm complaining, but we were expecting a different vibe in this type of steakhouse.  We will actually come back because the service and food were fantastic!

    I went here to celebrate my birthday and the moment I pulled up, the valet, made me feel special. The servers and staff super friendly and made might night special. The food was amazing!!! And drinks delicious. The vibes were dark and romantic, date night energy.

    Hania A.

    SPEECHLESS! First of all, hands down the best service I've ever had anywhere in Charlotte! I am big on service these days, post covid has been a nightmare dining out. Steak 48 has restored my faith in the possibility of excellent customer service. The food was AMAZING! Steaks were cooked perfectly to the requested temperature. We tried the 45 day aged steak and the bone-in filet mignon...WOW! My favorite side item had to be the corn crème brûlée...can't stop thinking about it. We also tried the crab and shrimp mac & cheese, also delicious. All sides are shareable, but I might have to get my own corn crème brûlée next time lol. Ambiance is very nice and cozy. Perfect for date nights and special occasions. I wouldn't say good forbig parties because it was nice for it to not be so loud in there. Dressy casual for sure as far as dress code. And valet is not complimentary but $8 which was worth it not having to walk far in heels. Overall, I loved their dining experience and highly recommend this steak house. So glad they chose Charlotte as one of their locations.

    Ultimate Warm Vanilla Caramel Cake
    Keith W.

    5 star may be too Low. I really thought steak 48 was Hype. Was I wrong in the worst way. From the service provided at the Hostess desk to our Wonderful server Mickey The service was top notch and very accommodating. Loved the intimate atmosphere. The drinks and food was absolutely amazing. Some I'm not fond of Brussels sprouts was So tasty. The shrimp and crab Mac & cheese is in a class of its own. The Lobsters were juicy and delicious. Even the Carmel dessert was something outta this world. A great place to share our anniversary! Thank you!

    Bone in Ribeye
    Ian N.

    Bone in Ribeye (5/5): Delicious ribeye. Perfectly seared and full of flavor. Top tier steak. Ultimate Warm Vanilla Caramel Cake (5/5): Maybe the best cake I've ever had. I'm not typically a big fan of cake, but the texture of this cake (particularly the edges) was almost more like a cookie. The gelato on top paired perfectly with the cake, and the pecans added a nice crunch. Glad I went with this but honestly all the desserts looked amazing. Corn Creme Brulee (5/5): Almost like a dessert side. The crunchy caramelized sugar added some great texture to the very sweet creamed corn. Braised Pork Belly (5/5): Loved the sweet Thai chili sauce. The pork belly itself had a good ratio of fat to meat. Petite Filet Mignon (4/5): Not as tender as some other filets I've had, but still very good. Well seasoned and seared. Roasted Brussel Sprouts (4/5): I liked the big chunks of bacon, but the flavor was a little lacking. The bacon flavor was surprisingly muted and it was pretty one dimensional. I also prefer when the sprouts are crispy and these weren't at all. RATING SYSTEM 5 - Great (Need to get this again) 4 - Good (Would get this again) 3 - Ok (Might give this another shot) 2 - Not Good (Won't get this again) 1 - Bad (Telling people to avoid this)

    Ask the Community - Steak 48

    One more question?.... Is there booths available?

    Yes, we do!

    Is there seating by the window for a view?

    We have a few tables that are by windows, I would recommend dining in the Magnolia room.

    Hoping to come in on a Saturday with husband and sit at the bar? We'd like to avoid waiting. What time does the bar start to fill up?

    Our bar tends to fill up rather quickly on the weekends, so I would say the sooner the better.

    Do they do anything for younger customers? Not a kids menu, but some steak houses will have a smaller cut for kids.

    Hi David, we do not have any off menu items that are smaller cuts. Some of our dishes can be great for sharing, and some of our appetizers and side dishes can be great meals for children. We look forward to seeing you.

    What is the off menu wagyu steak that is sharable? We can remember the exact name but would like to go back and order again. Does anyone know the name?

    We have a few off menu Wagyu options. The best one for sharing would be our tomahawk. 40oz bone in ribeye wagyu. We also offer a 12oz butchers cut, which is the cap of the wagyu ribeye.

    Does this restaurant have a vegetarian menu or any way to accommodate vegetarian guests?

    Hello, No specific vegetarian menu but we do offer a vegetarian pasta dish or a vegetarian plate with 3 vegetable choices as an entree. Plenty of vegetable options as side dishes as well and can modify any salad to omit meat when possible.

    Does the establishment allow kids?

    Yes as long as they bring their wallet. But I wouldn't go with every kid. Only if the kid is well behaved and likes fancy restaurants. If it's a rambunctious toddler no.

    With Covid restrictions can I still reserve for more than 10 people or it doesn't matter?

    I'm not completely sure. I would say because this place is so upscale it wouldn't shock me if you couldn't. But be mindful of the requirements to dine here that are in place now. There's a certain amount each person has to spend. It may be different… 

    What is the corkage policy?

    Hello, At the present time we do not allow outside wine to be consumed in the restaurant. Please… 

    Do you have to pay $100 per person?

    Not at this location! Hope to see you soon.

    How do you even get reservations that aren't at 4:45 or 9pm? I called 3 months in advance and still unable to find availability.

    You don't. This is a very popular restaurant. The food and service is outstanding. They are routinely booked 4 months plus in advance.

    Where can I find the Mother's Day brunch menu?

    I bet it is just the normal menu. Just guessing.

They barely brought around food like the French toast bites. They kept bringing around oysters and literally no table wanted them that I saw. It wasn't that busy either, tons of empty tables. Instead they held off the arguably best dish of the house: French toast bites. We FINALLY got them at the end of our meal before we left but had to stalk the waiter for them. For $78 there should be way more rotations of the better dishes. Our waiter was great and atmosphere is gorgeous. Playing, food quality and everything was average. The highlight was the poached eggs, eggs Benedict, bacon, potatoes, skewers and everything else was okay. Not better than like Golden Corral or a standard buffet. My opinion is skip the brunch for that price, unless you really like oysters LOL. Also if I had little kids, would never waste money on brunch here.

The steaks that we ordered were technically proficient, and seasoned with authority, to complement their dry aging process. We ordered the New York and a fillet mignon. Our sides included a baked potato, Caesar salads, and buttered broccoli. I became a little creative and I dragged my fillet mignon through the buttered sauce from the broccoli and I didn't think it could get better than that.

The food was mixed. The lobster bisque was flavorful, although the amount of lobster was surprisingly small. The mashed potatoes were outstanding, and the asparagus was very good. The Chilean sea bass was cooked well but lacked seasoning and wasn't the memorable entrée I expected. The biggest disappointment, however, was the service. The restaurant was less than half full during my visit, so the extended delays were especially surprising. I waited an unusually long time for my entrée while guests who arrived after me were served first. Another surprise was that the only restroom I was directed to required going down to the basement, which was difficult with my mobility issues (I need my knee replaced). I would encourage the restaurant to make it clearer whether there is an accessible restroom available on the main floor, as this could be challenging for many guests. After another long wait for dessert, I asked to have my crème brûlée boxed because the delays meant I would now be walking back to my hotel after dark. I explained that I had intentionally walked there for exercise and had planned to walk back before dark. The response I received was simply, "Just call an Uber." That completely missed the point. I wasn't asking for transportation--I was explaining how the delays had changed my evening. To add to the confusion, I was given two desserts instead of the one I requested. While I appreciate the gesture if it was intended that way, it reinforced the feeling that no one was really listening. What disappointed me most wasn't simply the wait. It was the complete lack of service recovery. No sincere apology, no acknowledgment of how long I'd waited, and no effort to make the experience feel special. I've always thought of Eddie V's as one of Charlotte's premier dining experiences. That's exactly why this visit was so disappointing. I sincerely hope this was an isolated experience because I'd like to remember Eddie V's for the exceptional restaurant it has been in the past.

    Celebrating my 55th birthday with a brunch at Crunkleton. This was my first visit, but will…read moredefinitely not be my last. First and foremost, our waiter, Alan was the best! I'm talking top tier, Veuve Clicquot Brut service...with a little spice...Best! He was so accommodating and keep us laughing the entire time. He went out of his way to make my day special! We started with beignets, oysters on the half shell and cocktails. Espresso Martinis, a Dirty Martini, and a specialty cocktail made to order. It may sound like a weird combination, but it all paired well together. I was in the mood for beef. So, I ordered the Wagyu Brunch Burger- 1/2 lb Wagyu, Over-Easy Egg, Grilled Bacon, Cheddar Cheese, Hollandaise, Avocado Spread, Brioche Bun, Garlic and Herb Fries. The fam had the Veggie Ranchero omelet- Seasonal Beans, Grilled Corn, Pico de Gallo, Poblano, Cheddar, Avocado, Tortilla Strips, Ranchero, Chipotle-Lime Crema, and a Hashbrown Casserole. Fingerling Breakfast potatoes, with a side of bacon and eggs, and another Hashbrown Casserole. Everything was cooked to perfection. I had such a great time and can't wait to return. I even made a recommendation to a friend who dined there Labor Day weekend and enjoyed her experience. I'll be back soon for sure!

    I heard great things about food, ambiance and service. Greeted by a small team at the door…read moreimmediately. Next we experienced top tier service from Tay. He recommended the chargrilled oysters as well as the crab cakes which did not disappoint. I prefer handcrafted cocktails and this is exactly what you're going to experience at Crunkleton. Not only did I inhale my blackberry gin based drink but I was extremely pleased with the birthday beignets. If that's not enough, we devoured a third of our tomahawk steak, the strawberry salad and my favorite item of the night were the mixed vegetables that accompanied the steak. Yassss! I loved the veggies. Looking for foodie vibes, grab your friends and enjoy a night at the Crunkleton. Pro-Tip: parking is validated; arrive early to avoid crowds

The restaurant was very clean and the noise volume low enough to where we could visit and comfortably carry on conversations. Our waiter was gracious and helped us to catch up with the rest of our party. We ordered a bottle of Pinot Nior and Dinner while the rest of our party finished their appetizers and salads. I ordered the steak frites and it was just wonderful! My boyfriend ordered the special which was halibut, asparagus, and mushroom risotto. Everything was perfect! The couple that was seated across from us split the special. The kitchen didn't hesitate to split this dish for them in the kitchen before bringing it out to our table. This is just excellent customer service! They are an elderly couple and could not possibly have eaten the entire meal by themselves. Our waiter was very attentive and nobody at the table ever had an empty glass. Also, your plate was cleared the moment that you finished with your meal. This was our first visit, but definitely not the last. Thank you for making our evening out with family and friends so very special. We will definitely be back in the near future.

    $29 Lobster roll special. We asked if fresh and told "yes". Guess it was at one time but I doubt…read morelobster was cooked that day and meat removed. We had one each- mine was with butter. The other, lettuce (never have seen that in a Maine lobster roll) and aioli). The one with butter had a nice brioche roll but most of the lobster was small claw ends vs nice chunks. The one on lettuce was better, more larger pieces of lobster, but meat was put onto a lot of lettuce to prop it up. It takes some effort, but buying a live lobster and cooking oneself is really the best way. I was hopeful- but ultimately disappointed.
