Tap And Vine Charlotte

Food and service was good- Restaurant was very busy and we had to wait a long time for our food. Our server was very nice and was doing what she could to get our meals to us.

The food and services used to be good but it is now terrible. Salmon overcooked, mashed potatoes tasted off drinks were just ok. One server at the bar could not keep up with 5 people sitting there. Sad to take this off rotation

200 Russians took over the restaurant starting at 8:00p and we were kicked/rushed/pushed out of the restaurant at 9p on New Years Eve! Just unacceptable! No mention of the Russian invasion when our reservation was made. Terrible way to treat customers!

We made reservations for New Years Eve at 6:30. We were dining with our daughter and her fiancée. It was his first time dining there and we reassured him based on our previous experiences, it was good. The hostess immediately told us we had to be out by 9:00pm because someone had booked the restaurant from 9-3 to celebrate NYE. As she seated us, my husband jokingly said, we should stay for the party! The hostess said, I don’t think they will like that. WOW. She also told us to be quick about it. At 7:00pm we had an appetizer and drinks. At 7:25 our waitress took our dinner order. While waiting, the restaurant was taken over by people dressed like the cast from The Great Gatsby, moving tables, decorating, giving diners dirty looks as if we were an inconvenience! We literally had next to ZERO service. At one point, we stopped who we assumed was a manager and asked were our food was. About 10 minutes later our waitress came out and wanted to know if we wanted our check! I told her we hadn’t even got our food yet! Apparently, the manager misheard us and thought we had asked for the check. At 8:25 I actually got up and walked over the the food holding area/kitchen were there were about 6 employees standing and another manager. I said, it’s been an HOUR since we order our food! How much longer?????? The manager said it was coming. They didn’t charge us for our meal but did for the appetizer and drinks. Drinks were not good at all. The Riesling tasted like it was watered down. As did the dirty martini. This horrible experience by far tops any other bad experiences at any restaurant we’ve ever been to. I blame poor management. It truly ruined our NYE!

Sunday brunch was fantastic. The menu had a wide variety of choices and I thought the prices were good. We had a side order of breakfast potatoes that were phenomenal. I would go back there just for those potatoes!!!
