    We dined on scallops, lobster, and ribeye special...all were delicious, perfectly prepared, and presented. Thomas, our server, was attentive and personable to us and all we observed. One suggestion: the background music could be a little less as it made table conversation a bit difficult. Overall, an excellent experience. We highly recommend. Dan and Kathy Butterfield

    It was incredible! It was my brother‘s birthday, and they did such a nice job to make him feel celebrated. It’s his favorite spot, and we always go for every special occasion. The food was delicious, and it came quickly. Waitress was very friendly and helpful. Can’t wait to go back!

    We have had dinner here a few times, which is an outstanding experience with a lively but comfortable atmosphere. This was my first time having lunch here and it was equally wonderful. It didn't have the same amount of people as a weekend night, understandably, but it was a perfect choice for a business lunch. The lunch menu is priced very well and has a large amount and variety of menu selections to choose from, all at a very reasonable price for lunch. Our service was quick and our server was attentive, knowledgeable, friendly, and professional - Shoutout Dimitri :) ! I always recommend Angeline's as a great dinner spot in Uptown Charlotte, but will add it to my lunch recommendations for people in Uptown as well!

    Always a fantastic experience at Deans in Charlotte. I love bringing new people in to experience Deans and last night presented that opportunity once again. I brought 2 new people that had never dined with Deans and they both said, “hands down the best steak they had ever eaten”! Which was the bone in filet Deans style
