The prosciutto flatbread was delicious along with the ricotta and fire roasted tomato dip. Wine selection was expected for the venue. Ambience could be improved as the large TV above the bar area detracted from the atmosphere.

We had Hurley reservations for a theater in uptown. Charlotte. Six of us ordered from a menu focused on small plates, which we shared. The ambience of the restaurant was comfortable, and the noise in the restaurant was quite acceptable. As more people came in for dinner to the restaurant. The pricing was fair, and the food was delicious.

Great pre-show option! Good service and atmosphere--seemed like the majority of guests were going on to the Belk for a show. Friendly and mindful of the time, and the food was very good.

Food was good but service just ok They didn’t have 2 of the wines listed After a second Peroni, they told us they didn’t have more Despite selling us the focaccia to go with the burrata, they brought the focaccia much after we’ve finished the burrata I would call it Mediterranean rather than Italian - there is no pasta and pizzas are more like flatbread. The risotto comes under the large plates but was rather a small one.

I don't understand how such an establishment can exist in the center of Uptown Charlotte! The food is barely passable for a food court at some mediocre mall. The so-called "focaccia" was a strange kind of bread full of pepper and some indiscernible filling. The salad was full of blocks of pungent cheap cheese. Jamon was from the last century, cheap and nasty. The cheese platter had cheese on it, but it was stale and looked like it was collected from previous uses. The service was lukewarm at best. Location is the only thing going for it. But I'd rather drive elsewhere.
