My best friend and I celebrated my birthday with lunch at The Charlotte, and it was such a wonderful experience. We ordered the spicy vodka pasta and the Cajun truffle malfadine, and both dishes were absolutely delicious. The restaurant was stunning during the day, and I imagine it would be even more beautiful at night. I highly recommend visiting, whether it’s with someone special or a group of friends.

We had a large group for a birthday celebration, including small kids, and the server was great despite how hectic it had to be for her. The food was excellent and the setting was perfect as the space allowed the kids to be energetic without distracting/bothering other diners. The fact that we had great weather to be outside also helped greatly.
