Best Seasonal Restaurants in Matthews

We were lucky to get a last minute reservation for bar seats. Which was great, because Erica was an amazing bartender and we enjoyed watching her create incredible cocktails and chatted away. She gave us dessert on the house for being her fave customers that night. The food was incredible. I loved the whole experience!

My party of 10 had a great experience with Aaron. He was very attentive & caring. Any problem we had was resolved immediately. The entire staff that we interacted with was very friendly as well. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and Aaron as your server.

We always have a great experience at Roosters. The food there is better than at any other restaurant in Charlotte. The service is excellent every time.

My husband and I enjoyed a date night out. We made last minute reservations and were able to snag a table at 8pm. We ordered our usual ranch rings for an appetizer and then both enjoyed a steak dinner. The fillet was cooked perfectly and my husband’s sirloin seasoning was exceptional. Don’t skimp on dessert! We loved the seasonal banana foster bread pudding!

We found the Fug Tree on Open table and a travel blog recommendation and it was exactly what we were looking for! We had a fabulous time celebrating my daughter’s 23rd birthday trip from Los Angeles -- and met others celebrating their anniversaries. We shared 2 apps, a salad, 1 main, and ordered 3 drinks (2 different cocktails and a glass of wine) — and unfortunately didn’t have room for dessert which we were looking forward to — but they still brought some homemade chocolates on a plate inscribed Happy Birthday with a candle, which was lovely! The wait staff were very personable and took great care of us including splitting shared dishes without being asked. The cocktails were unique and yummy. The food was a fantastic mix of flavors and cooked to perfection. The house was tastefully decorated for the holidays. Compared to LA prices it was at least 50% less expensive than a similar experience — but we did tip a lot more than we usually would since service was fantastic and min wage in NC is about 1/4 of that in CA.
