Best Lunch Restaurants in Arboretum

Consistently great When it come to fresh fish in Charlotte there is little in the way of competition for Limani. Today was no exception. We had the Ice Box - a delicious assortment of oysters, shrimp and chilled King Crab. The Loup de Mer is their signature dish - recommend with Lemon Potatoes. Great job keeping service and food quality up to big city standards.

As good as always only thing was our Truffle fries & Regular fries came out soggy but other than that it was very delicious especially the Tomahawk Steak it was cooked to perfection, Medium Rare.

Food as always was excellent. The Halibut was cooked perfectly and my collard greens were very flavorful. The roasted Chicken entree and the Mac and Cheese were also very good. The service was excellent and very attentive. A really nice neighborhood restaurant.

Our second time dining at BAR ONE on Valentine’s Day. We enjoyed the Burrata and Cauliflower starters! We 💜 the cauliflower, so unique! We shared the lasagna, which we will definitely order again, as the leftovers were just as good! Cocktails and a bottle of wine to celebrate! We will be back soon with some friends to share one of our favorite spots in Charlotte!

We have previously dined at other Roosters locations in Charlotte, but this was our first time at this new Ballantyne location. The food was very good as we expected based on our visits to other Roosters locations. The atmosphere is nice - modern, open, clean. We were there for Valentine's Day lunch on a Friday - I'm glad we made reservations because almost every table was filled (it was more crowded than I was expecting for lunch time). That being said, there was enough space between tables that we did not feel crowded or cramped; there was some energetic noise but it wasn't too loud (we could easily hear each other talking at our table). The service was friendly and good, although it was slightly slower than expected which I can understand based on the large crowd of people who entered shortly after we arrived (the waitress was busy!). I would recommend it and will be back again in the future - I'm glad Roosters now has a Ballantyne location much closer to my home and that it's as good as I hoped it would be!
