Great service and great food. I had the cod with creamed corn and it was delicious. I only wish it came with more corn. The chocolate chip bread pudding for dessert was also delicious. read more

The @theartisanspalate is always a great evening to be had, from the farm to table locally sourced ingredients with a garden outback. Now toss in a Women of Whiskey event highlighting female distillers, distilleries and artisans. Lastnight featured @widowjane Rye and Bourbons. The cocktails paired perfectly with every bite.

Found AP when reviewing Yelp in NoDa. I found their menu, food photos and reviews appealing. It was a pleasant surprise to find that they have plenty of reservations left on the same day. Restaurant is at the end of a strip mall and has a nice size outdoor patio. My wife and I were on a dinner date and we were sat inside which is tastefully designed. We started out with drinks; she got Pinot noir and I ordered a BS Rewind. We were debating between several appetizers and decided to go with the mussels with bread in white wine sauce. There was a generous portion of mussels and sauce. As an added bonus we got to mussel shell "Tetris" in the bowl with the discarded shells. The main courses had a significant variance in pricing from $20 to $40. My wife ordered the short rib sliders ($21) at the suggestion of our server and I ordered the cod with jalapeño corn ($38) which was also suggested by our server. Both meals were well prepared and looked quite appetizing. We also ordered fries to round out the meal. My cod tasted great and paired well with the sweet and spiciness of the corn. The fish was crispy on the outside and white and flaky on the inside. The cod had some kind of glaze on it that added to the flavor. My wife enjoyed the short rib sliders. I tried one of the three sliders and I was surprised that they were short ribs. Nonetheless they tasted good. My cod looked tasty but was definitely not the portion size I expected for the price. After I finished my meal, I ate most of the fries and helped my wife finish her sliders. It was a great meal and my only beef (no pun intended) was the portion size of the cod. For the portion size, I think the price should have been closer to that of the sliders- $21 or maybe split the difference. I asked our server about the portion size before I ordered and he said it was plenty which was not the case. I might suggest offering 2 portion sizes for the cod so there is a gauge of what to expect when ordering. Great meal and I recommend AP for anyone looking for great food on short notice in NoDa. Cheers! read more

Once every three months or so my girlfriends and I get together for lunch and catch up with each other. Sarah chose The Artisan's Palate and we were very excited to give it a try. The menu was amazing and they also have a full bar. Since we were just meeting for a late lunch, I opted for an unsweet tea and the shrimp artichoke salad. She brought over the tea and then came by later to check to see if it was sweet enough. I informed her that I had ordered unsweet tea, and she argued with me in front of my friends saying she brought me exactly what I had ordered. I waited tables for years and it's unacceptable that she would argue with me as to whether I ordered a sweet or an unsweet tea. I never drink sweet tea. I must confess that I have a tiny voice and my nickname growing up with mouse. I was so embarrassed sitting there with my friends and she literally ruined the vibe. Both of my friends said she should not argue with you and especially not over an iced tea. My girlfriend's had water with their meals. They never received refills for their water, and I never received a refill for my unsweet tea. The restaurant options are endless if going out for lunch and spending over $31.00 for a salad and unsweetened tea. I'm not saying I will never ever be back, but I'm so extremely disappointed in the customer service that we received on my first visit ever to this restaurant. read more

The Artisan's Palate - Shrimp, artichoke salad - Cafes Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

This is easily one of my absolute go-to spots in NoDa! The space has such a cool vibe and offers a little bit of everything--a great patio, comfortable bar seating, an art gallery, and a fantastic backyard garden seating area. In addition, a complete coffee bar, I highly suggest the malted iced coffee. The staff here is always incredibly friendly, super knowledgeable about the menu, and they do an amazing job of remembering all the regulars. They offer a wonderful mix of staple favorites, a rotating menu, inventive cocktails, and great weekly specials. I have to say, they have my favorite fries in Charlotte, hands down! They come served with a delicious aioli, as well as ketchup and sriracha ketchup. Their empanadas are also some of the best I've ever had, and I love that they offer a variety of options, including a brunch pastry empanada. If you are looking for recommendations, a few of my personal go-to dishes are: Pommes Frites (an absolute must!) Marinated Olives & Olive Tapenade Meatballs & Mussels The rotating scallop dishes To top it all off, the bar serves a great wine selection and highly creative drinks. About Damn Thyme is my current cocktail of choice! read more

I had a recent lunch meeting at Artisan's Palate and really enjoyed myself. The restaurant itself is so chill and inviting. I always feel relaxed when I come here. I wanted to eat lighter this day so I ordered their salad and added salmon and had a hot matcha. I loved the matcha and my salad was okay. The salmon add was $9 which isn't too too bad but to me the amount of salmon I got is what bothered me a little bit. I liked it but considering it was a $20 salad I should've been a little more satisfied than I was. I also ordered fries and they were slightly burnt but they did the trick and helped fill me up. I will most likely order other things next time I go. read more

This place was amazing! We were the only guests for quite a while- it was a early Thursday afternoon. Our 5 top table of foodies were so excited by the menu that we went a bit crazy on the menu. We ordered the olives, bacon wrapped dates, the spoon bread and mimosas, matcha, espressos. I had a grits bowls for my entree with all of the accoutrements. It was delicious and so much food. The space itself has a light and airy indoor/outdoor feel. Industrial/artsy decor/musical decor. I can't wait to visit Charlotte again just to come here. read more

Just divine, from the service to the poached pear salad to the art-filled environs to the home fries. I liked the Artisan's Palate with just one visit but liked it even more after my second visit just 4 days later. I first came here for Sunday brunch with friends. It's lively in here on a Sunday afternoon and reservations are accepted. I had the poached pear salad, which is vegan as is. It's mixed greens and arugula with pears poached in wine and spices (delicious), some nuts and dried fruit. My friend ordered pommes frites for the table, but with one bite of my friend's home fries, I was devoted. The pommes frites were really not that remarkable TBH, in comparison. Then on Thursday, I returned with my colleagues and had another wonderful experience. It's significantly quieter on a weekday morning and I was able to enjoy the atmosphere even more, especially because the weather afforded us the ability to sit by the open patio and we basically had the place to ourselves. I had a repeat of what I ordered on Sunday. The space is so beautiful and filled with street art (love the nod to tagging throughout) and fine art that rotates (in the back room). I was a bit surprised at the lack of vegan options because I'd expect a cool place like this to offer more than just a salad and tapenade and a few sides. A heartier vegan option or two would be much appreciated! That said, I'm a fan and will gladly return for that poached pear salad. Perhaps next time I'll try a cocktail or two (if you're a mimosa fan, they offer a variety of juices FYI). read more

Got reservations here for brunch while in town. I did love the vibe of the place. It jives with things I support as well. *locally sourced menu *monthly featured local artists *100% woman-owned and operated Service was good- my only wish was that we were told from the git go what wasn't available. There were several moments of "I want this" to have her come back and say "Sorry - it's not available today - can you pick something else?" After altering our original selection, we started with the Warm Marinated Olives & Bacon - Wrapped Dates. Both were delish and set the stage for a great brunch ahead. Then, for the main, again after receiving the news, the dish the waitress recommended to me wasn't available, so I opted for the Shrimp & Grits & Artisan's Burrata Salad. The salad was the standout of the two. I tend to like my roux a bit darker on my S&Gs, but it was still good. So overall, it was good, and I'd come back. But a few things kept it from the 5 star experience I was hoping for. Maybe next time (fingers crossed) read more

I live nearby and decided to stop in to get a coffee for the first time. The place was empty aside one table so I thought the sign to wait to be seated was a little awkward. I considered getting food but the food menu before 2:30pm wasn't particularly appealing to me. I considered the curry chicken salad but didn't want to spend $30 on just a coffee and sandwich. I opted for just the iced latte which was $8 after tip. It was good but nothing special. The barista was kinda and the space has tons of seating indoor and outdoor. Definitely a hidden gem for the area. I would come back to try the food but I wouldn't come back for the coffee. read more

Ended up here by chance after missing the cutoff of yoga next door. Decided to get a bite to eat before the next scheduled class. This place is such a gem! They display and sell local art, there's also a cute secret garden in the back with seating. This is a tapas style place so shared shrimp and grits, fries, bacon wrapped dates and the Brussels sprouts. The shrimp were large and cooked perfectly, grits were creamy. Crispy French fries topped with flaky sea salt, it came with three dipping sauces, sriracha ketchup, garlic aioli and regular ketchup. The bacon wrapped dates were decadent and a nice crunch from the almond. Now the star were the Brussel sprouts, crispy on the outside, soft of the inside, savory red sauce over top with flaky sea salt. The service was excellent! read more

I really love the concept of The Artisan's Palate and I have had some great food over the probably 6-8 times I've been. However, it's been falling firmly in the "hit or miss" category for me now. Most recently, the dishes were quite good (the brussell sprouts are top notch) but we had to remind our server about both a cocktail and one of our dishes which didn't get brought out until the very end of the meal. Our server disappeared for a long time while we waiting to pay a bill and didn't offer a dessert menu. This was still two hours to close so we also weren't holding anyone up. I want to root for them so badly but for the prices, I do want to be able to have all that we ordered come out without having to ask or feel like we're inconveniencing the servers! Will probably give this place one more shot for those brussell sprouts. read more

Although this restaurant has been on my list to visit for awhile, today is the first time I made it there. Beautifully decorated inside and out with outside seating, it felt warm and welcoming from the moment I entered. We had a large group so we were seated at the community table. Service was amazing and the food delicious. I had the lavender mimosa and the egg board which came with bacon, scrambled eggs, sour dough toast and potatoes. We shared a croissant and biscuit board that came with an assortment of jellies and jams. I will definitely come back to see how their dinner service is. Oh and did I mention, this restaurant is woman owned! read more

So...was our first time here and I must say it was very disappointing food wise. This place is run by women, had quick service and support art which is why I am giving 2 stars, otherwise If I had to rate based on food level I would have given 1 star. Here is my feedback 1. The portion size for the price seems extremely small. A $17 empanadas with a count of 4 empanadas doesn't make sense to me. 2. The tomato soup was tasteless. 3. Menu shows many vegan options but it was so hard to find a proper vegan meal. Appetizers like fries, Brussel sprouts were our options but we were there for dinner, so didn't choose that. Please add some vegan meals or mention you can make the items vegan atleast. 4. Such a cute place and decorations but it was burning inside, maybe use some AC? Overall I don't think I recommend this place based on what I got but maybe it's good for other people. read more

Came here for Mother's Day brunch and had mixed feelings. The ambiance is really nice, and the live music created a great atmosphere for the occasion. Unfortunately, the service timing was pretty rough. After getting seated, the waiting game started. Food and drinks came out in waves instead of together. First, my youngest daughter got her salmon board, which she enjoyed. About 30 minutes later, my oldest daughter received her breakfast sandwich, which was good as well. My steak and eggs arrived after about an hour. The flavor was good, but the portion was surprisingly small, maybe about 1/3 of a ribeye. For $31, I expected a much more substantial portion. The worst part was my wife's meal. Her beans and rice arrived about an hour and 15 minutes into the meal, which made for a pretty disappointing Mother's Day experience. Throughout the brunch, we also had to repeatedly ask for silverware and napkins, and even the drinks came out inconsistently. My daughter's "mango juice" was less than half a glass. Overall, the food itself was decent, and the atmosphere was enjoyable, but the service and timing really hurt the experience. read more

I visited The Artisan's Palate for a whiskey tasting dinner featuring Uncle Nearest. The service was top notch from the moment I entered. I loved the cozy ambiance of the space and the fact that the whole meal was themed to set the stage for our experience. From the 1st bite of cornbread dipped in confit pot liquor, I was all in! The accompanying drinks were all delicious and unique, showcasing the talent outside of the kitchen as a true contender for attention. Honestly, it was a full blown culinary delight from start to finish. I look forward to coming back for more, especially now that it's warm enough to sit outside.

Decided to hop over to Artisan's for their weekend breakfast after gym and Uptown Famers market. Grabbed a seat at the bar with my Economist magazine and hungry appetite. Greeted by Angie who take care of me at the bar. Ordered a coffee and breakfast sandwich with cheddar/sausage and a side of pomme frites. Angie told me about the coffee options and decided to get the medium drip coffee. Coffee was fresh and warm. Sandwich was great, not overcooked or soggy. I was able to relax, have a nice meal, and catch up on my weekend reading. Angie would check up on me and make sure I was doing okay including answering random questions that popped in my head. If you're not in the mood to cook, friends family out of town, and you want to grab a good meal, hop over to Artisan's Palate and sit whenever you feel like, you won't be disappointed! read more

Okay, so another time was promised and another time delivered. I came here on a weekday night with my aunt for dinner, and we had a ball. The service was excellent, and it wasn't overly crowded. It was a lovely night, so the doors were open for a nice breeze. They have updated and streamlined their menu, which is now electronic and super easy to follow. We ordered a few glasses of wine and the fries Brussels sprouts to start. They were so delicious we couldn't stop eating them. The honey-harissa vinaigrette and the perfect fry on the sprouts made them out of this world. She got the rockin' sliders on brioche, and I had the Scallops, Pistachio & Micro-Green Orzo, and Apple Gastrique for our entrees. Both were absolutely delicious. The sliders were served in pillowy buns, and the short rib and brisket were perfectly cooked and juicy. The Scallops, Pistachio, Micro-Green Orzo, and Apple Gastrique easily became my favorite dish in Charlotte. They had absolutely amazing flavors and textures, and the scallops were seasoned and cooked perfectly. It was out of this world. We were too stuffed for dessert, but I will definitely be back soon to try more of the offerings. The moral of the story is that sometimes, you have to give it another whirl. I'm glad I did. read more

At The Artisan's Palate in NoDa, every dish here is crafted with intention and creativity, delivering bold flavors and a visual feast. The lamb shank was tender and rich, served over a creamy bed of risotto that melted in your mouth. Their olive tapenade with crusty bread was a perfect starter, bursting with Mediterranean flavors, along with the Brussels and bacon-wrapped dates. Drinks? The cocktails are on another level--balanced, refreshing, and crafted with fresh herbs for that extra punch. The old fashioned was awesome, as was the G&T! The vibe? Cozy and eclectic, perfect for a casual evening or a fun night out with friends. Plus, live music on Saturdays makes it even better. If you're looking for a spot that blends great food, drinks, and ambiance, The Artisan's Palate is where it's at! The staff was absolutely amazing! They know the menus front and back and gave amazing suggestions and recommendations. Parking is located in the lot connected to the restaurant. Didn't have an issue finding parking.

5 Stars - A Brunch Worth Savoring! We had an exceptional dining experience at The Artisan's Palate. Their globally inspired, locally sourced cuisine truly shines in every dish. We started with the Spiced Wine-Poached Pear Salad, which was beautifully balanced and full of flavor. For our entrées, we enjoyed the Croque Madame Sandwich and the Croissant French Toast topped with rich bourbon butter and maple syrup--both were absolutely delicious and prepared to perfection. The Guava Mimosas were the perfect complement to our meal and added a refreshing, unique touch to brunch. What made our visit even more memorable was our server, Jaheem. He took the time to explain each dish with knowledge and enthusiasm, helping us fully appreciate the flavors and ingredients.
