Not a bar for Jocks or @ssh0les
by Kramerpdc
This place is the place you go to to unwind. Calm atmosphere, good comfort foods, great beers. If your a j#rk.... go downtown... we don't want you here
- Pros: Best and Only Local Bar in Charlotte
- Cons: none
Great atmosphere and food
by Stacy8687
My girlfriends and I frequently meet up here for a girl night dinner because of the atmosphere. It's just very quaint and just a place that you want to hangout out in for a while. My favorite it the honey chicken and I also love the fried pickles. The last time we went, we ended up staying for hours and drinking wine. The people who work there are very nice too and make you feel comfortable. Would recommend to anyone.
- Pros: Great atmosphere
Awesome food, and quaint
by ashalt
they have the best london broil sandwich I have ever eaten. Nice atmosphere, and off the beaten path but so worth the visit.
- Pros: great price, nice atmosphere, and great food
- Cons: none
Great low-key bar with excellent food!
by adrizzle
This is a great unpretentious place to just grab a bite and have a drink or two. Dimly lit bar with a relaxed atmosphere. The potato wedges and quesadillas are great, as well as the sandwiches and pasta dishes. If you want super-friendly service, go elsewhere. This place is about function, not form.
Great local pub
by emstubbs
We just went to Alexander Michael's for the first time and loved it! After reading the reviews, we decided to try it out. The owner greeted us at the door- it wasn't crowded for a Saturday night. We ordered the nachos based on the reviews- and they were great, it seems they used homemade chips. Then I had the chicken pita and my boyfriend ordered the london broil sandwich. They were both great! The waitress was very friendly and welcoming. I don't know why that one man had a problem- I think he has this place confused, because there was no hostess- or even a hostess stand. This was a great experience, I would recommend it to anyone- young and old!
- Pros: great food great service cozy atmosphere
- Cons: hard to find- local spot
Best Kept Secret
by PatDuncan
This is a great place to take a first date. Good beer list, freindly people. A nice change from tryon st feel. You can walk in dressy or casual and feel comfortable. Would reccomend this place to any of my friends.
- Pros: Location
- Cons: Small (if this is a con)
EVERYTHING is great!

An original must-try dining experience and a long-standing local fave. Note to Milow who posted on 4/10/8 - AM's doesn't take reservations.
Charlotte's Best Kept Secret
by davede11
This is one of if not the only bar in Charlotte that I've found that has "Warsteiner" beer on draught. The food is excellent & the service has always been good. It's a bit small, but gives it that "warm" neighborhood bar feel. I Honestly think it'd take away from it's charm if they were to expand the building size. Perfect the way it is! Check out their dish called "What It Is". A GREAT spicy pasta dish that I get just about everytime I go there.
Great place for dinner and relaxed atmosphere
by jdunk
I went to this restaurant on a Monday night. We ordered an appetizer.. a cup of spicy crab soup.. it was so delicious. I definitely recommend trying this! We then had a couple drinks and ordered the shrimp marsala.. which was also delicious. Our waitress was very attentive and very friendly. We had the brownie for dessert, which wasn't as great as the rest of our meal.. it tasted more like fudge, but if you like fudge then you would probably like the brownie. Overall, this was a very pleasant experience and I will definitely be returning.
- Pros: Spicy crab soup and relaxed atomosphere
- Cons: The brownie
Terrible Service, Bartender is rude
by Milovy
We had a reservation and according to the host, they were 30-45 min behind in service. He told us we could go to the bar and have a drink ON THE HOUSE for having to wait. We all ordered a beer or glass of wine and when we were seated, the waitress asked who had which drink to add to our tab. We explained what the host told us and she replied rudely "No he would never do that" She got the bartender who started to tell us that we all must have selective hearing. We asked for the host to come over and we asked him directly, did he not offer us a drink on the house? He wouldn't look us in the eye and said no he didn't then scurried off. We all were shocked! My friend told the bartender and waitress that we could totally afford our own drinks, that wasn't the issue. We were being treated poorly for a mistake their staff made. The bartender and waitress then said some other very rude things to us about our "selective hearing" and that it must be a misunderstanding on our part. We decided to pay for the drinks and leave. As we were leaving the bartender stood at the door with his arms crossed, glaring at us like we were common criminals. I have never been treated so poorly in my life at an establishment. The other patrons around us even commented that they were 100% in the wrong. So terrible service, lying hosts and rude bartenders. I would never go back there.
- Pros: None
- Cons: Rude service
