Loved this dog bar experience! We went on a dreary Sunday morning for brunch…read more We decided last minute to bring our Cavapoo and had never been before so he wasn't registered. It said online it could take a couple days to get approved , but we had no problems just bringing him and his vaccinations. They seem strict about seeing vaccination history so I knew he would be safe and not get sick from other dogs! The check in process was quick and easy! Since it was not the best weather wise, it was only us and one other group there, but a friend said it does get crowded but never too crowded! They had a ton of picnic tables outside and beach volleyball courts. They have 2 sections outside, one is off leash and one is on leash. Inside is also on leash, so some options there! The bar is accessible no matter what section you are in, and they had a full bar. There were also some TVs inside with sports on. The facility seemed SO clean for a dog bar, I was impressed by that. The bartenders were also SO nice asking about our dog and his breed and making sure we had everything we needed. The facility seemed secure with lots of doors and magnetic locks so no dogs could escape. They did have brunch and it was delicious!!! I got the avacado toast. The egg was a tad salty but still very good! I would definitely go back!

They have a few burgers on the menu but just get the lettuce tomato pickles cheeseburger. Soooo…read moregood! Great bun and crispy veggies. I wish they gave more fries as a side, was a little small of a portion. Churros were yummy but $8 for 3 cut in half seemed a lot, should be $5.

We had such a nice afternoon at Foxcroft Wine! We decided to sit outside since the weather was…read moreperfect, and the ambiance made it such a relaxing place to enjoy some good food and wine. The service was wonderful from start to finish, and we even had the chance to speak with the general manager during our visit. I decided to try the pimento cheeseburger this time, although I typically order their mushroom pasta dish, which I always enjoy. The burger was good, and my mom ordered the rigatoni, which was also really good! We also ordered glasses of wine that we really enjoyed. While we were sitting outside, unfortunately a bug decided to take a swim in my glass and didn't quite make it... Our server was so kind about it and brought me another glass, filling it back up to where my original glass had been. The atmosphere was lovely, the food was delicious, the wine was yummy, and the service made our visit even more enjoyable. We'll definitely be back!

We had 8 ladies and were seated at a high-top table with plenty of room for everyone. The atmosphere was great--not too loud, but we also didn't feel out of place chatting at a regular volume. It was the perfect setting for catching up and actually being able to enjoy our conversation. The service was excellent. Our drinks were never empty, the food came out promptly, and we really appreciated that we never felt rushed throughout the evening. The food was delicious, and most of us tried a wine flight and were very happy with our selections. We also loved that they were able to split the checks, which is always a huge plus for a group! We had such a great experience and will definitely be back!

Had a couples massage at the Ballantyne Resort and got hungry so we walked across the bridge and…read morediscovered Postino's! What a find! We sat in a booth near the bar inside facing the tv that had a great football game. The restaurant is bright and welcoming and the service was outstanding! Our server had great knowledge of the menu and shared the most popular and her favorites to help us decide on food. Signed up for Postino Pass and got a free Bruschetta board with 4 varieties: Salmon pesto, bacon burrata, buffalo cauliflower, and Mexican street corn. This was a great and flavorful start to our outing. My wife was drinking wine ($6 glass for happy hour) and I had an excelsior cider. After joining the clean plate club with the bruschetta, we ordered the Chef's Charcuterie for our second and final course. It had crispy crackers and toast. It had cured meat, olives, feta whip, hummus, artichoke, spicy almond and cheese. Everything made a good mix of tastes and flavors and it was plenty to share for 2 people. To top it off, I asked about a Veteran's discount when I was getting ready to pay the bill and our server went to ask her manager and she came back and said they don't have a discount but gave me a discount anyway! I can honestly say that is the FIRST time in my life that someone has created a Veteran discount that didn't exist. I highly recommend anyone in the Ballantyne area to visit Postino's and enjoy a great meal, in a welcoming environment, with very hospitable servers. I have a new favorite place for drinks and food in Ballantyne. Thanks for making my Birthday outing special for my wife and I. Cheers!

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
