204 North Kitchen & Cocktails

Second time we came here, this crab dip was so good. We needed more pita bread BUTTT, we still liked it. Those parm buffalo wings delicious, definitely worth a try. We got 3 different drinksLong island iced teaAmazing grace with Malibu instead of spiced rum Traditional margarita with casamigos reposado Our server was so sweet, she suggested the right things for us. The restaurant wasn't too loud, nor too busy. Definitely a place worth trying.

I really enjoyed our service above all else. Matt was our server and he was delightful-- personable, friendly, a pleasure, truly.We were there at lunch on Christmas Day. I ordered the vegetarian pasta dish and my husband had the ribeye. Both meals were cooked well, although I will say I would have preferred the ribeye to have more flavor.The gingerbread brownie was also good-- some caramel sauce on it though would have really set it off!I appreciate the staff for accommodating space for our stroller, and the hostess up front for taking a picture of us as a family. I would absolutely return for a holiday or otherwise!

Here's a tip if you want to visit:Make Reservations!!!This is more a tip to visit instead of reviewing the restaurant.Even if you think it's going to be a dead Tuesday don't make our mistake. In downtown Charlotte for a concert on a Thursday and thought we'd pop in for a quick bite.Nope. Reservations only so we headed down the street. 2 more spots had an hour wait and reservations encouraged.It's a THURSDAY.We finally found a pizza shop, 800, where we got a quick bite.Maybe on another visit to Charlotte I'll put in a reservation for 204 and I'll get to enjoy it. It looked good.

Exactly what we were looking for. Great bar and a nice range of small plates and entrees. We had cocktails and shared the truffle fries, wedge salad and crab cakes. Service was friendly and we enjoyed our one night at n Charlotte.

We visited 204 North Kitchen with a group of 8 for a birthday celebration. It was Saturday night and there was only 2-3 other parties in the restaurant which seemed a bit odd. There was a big festival going on right outside with the streets blocked off for pedestrian traffic which might have contributed to it having only a few patrons.The menu features $16 signature cocktails, mostly tapas, a few salads and some entrees. We ordered a variety of tapas for the table, and I tried the Spinach Pesto Pasta.The food was okay, but nothing special. The spinach pesto pasta was drowning in sauce, but the flavor was good. However, the main reason for two stars is due to the experience with our server. For starters, she would only refer to herself as "queen". She was slurring her speech, appeared impaired, and was extremely annoying. She insisted on playing a game where she picked each persons cocktail but without telling you what it was until it was brought out and tasted. Only a few people took her up on the offer, but no one was trilled with what they received. She also provided unneeded feedback on everything we would order. I'm just glad she didn't spill a drink on us. Won't be back and wouldn't recommend.

Nice place, amazing service, nice food.We went there before a baskets game and it's really close by! Perfec to take a drink och a beer before a game! Nice bar

I had dinner here on a Tuesday night after work. We were staying a few blocks away, and picked this place because it was packed and had a fun atmosphere. We were able to be seated right away without reservations. Our entire experience was fabulously curated by our server, MJ. She was a delight, and took great care of us from the start. We started with two house cocktails and they were both beautiful and delicious. We shared risotto balls (Arancini) and the crab cakes. The Arancini was the better of the two, but I thought both of them could have used more sauce on the plates. The food was average at best, but giving 4 stars for the very tasty cocktails and the very good service!

We dropped into 204 because my wife was wanting lobster mac and we have not found good LMnC since we lived in Savannah. We decided to stay with the small plate menu which is an understatement.. the portions were incredible. The LMnC had big chunks of lobster..very rich creamy and freshly made.... The crab cakes OMG... realize we lived on the coast and you could get crab cakes everywhere... they were juicy balanced very well and the plate garnished with a secret sauce and very colorful cherry tomato's and corn. We also had the tuna tare-tare ... absolutely tender flavorful fresh and the chips on the side paired well without over taking the flavor of the dish. Not to slight the truffle fries... very well prepared not greasy soggy or over powering truffle flavor. Kiley was adorable.. helpful and a delight to interact with! She made sure we were well taken care of. Loved the atmosphere.. we went early which is the best time evidently we did not have to fight the 7pm rush. Great spot Charlotte!!

The food was good! What really made my experience a 10/10 was our server MJ! She really made our night. We played a game called MJ's Pick for our drink selection and she didn't steer us wrong. Her service is what made my experience 5 stars!

We went here for a birthday and the experience was amazing. We had Queen MJ as our server and she made the vibes even better. The food was good and the drinks were great. I definitely recommend trying this place!
