REVIEWS OF Ink N Ivy IN North Carolina

J Simmons

Fun place, felt retro and eccletic at the same time. Our food was good, the waiter was very attentive. Cocktails were good, everyone at the table enjoyed their drink. Will definitely done here again

walter thompson

Buffalo chicken sandwich is a DE boned fine and it is huge and delicious. Server was absolutely amazing. I should have got her name because she was perfect. Prices are very reasonable.

Sujeong Kim

Really did not have a good experience here tonight. Bartenders were cleaning up and more focused on that task than taking care of people. I had to repeatedly ask at 1:30am if I could order a drink to which the bartender asked what time it was.... my friend and I were interested in staying at this location until close but decided to leave because everyone seemed to be ready to close. I’ve never had this experience at a bar, especially on a Saturday night.

Andrew Artemenko

Planned to meet a client there yesterday for an early evening meeting. Before I was able to get a seat, I was greeted by four men sitting at the bar who began asking me for money. No air conditioning on one of Charlotte's hottest days, and aggressive panhandling. I left as soon as I could.

Sammie Marks

Great atmosphere good food good music loved and ink n ive

Dillon Mann

Felt bad for my bartender. I felt that she was overworked. As there were only 2. It was July 3rd as we arrived and pretty crowded. Took a long time to get a drink but that wasn't her fault. Drink was good when I received it.

Daniel Uribe Bernal

Great atmosphere, location, and space. I love the big booths along the wall. The food is good and whiskey cocktails are good and consistent. The prices are fair. No qualms with the service.

Very Cool Place , Can Smoke Cigars on Outside deck

Stephanie Reyes

Parking as usual, anywhere in uptown isn't easy. Very aesthetically pleasing indoors and outdoors. All the staff was really nice. Unfortunately our 2nd round of drinks took too long to request compared to our 1st round. Good music. Loved the outdoor heating lamps

Madeline Alt

My fiance and I stopped in here for a (very) late dinner just before midnight. Our waiter was enthusiastic and wasn't at all sour about our arriving just before the kitchen closed. I had the turkey and chorizo burger with collards - delicious! I would definitely return!

Bunny Hogue

I was not pleased with this place at all. The service takes forever. It took some time before the waitress came to our table and then once we ordered our food, it took at least 45 minutes for our food to come out. The food was subpar and for me the best thing was my salad. The prices are high for the food and drinks. Other than that the atmosphere is nice.

Rachel McGirt Waddell

Cool place. Food was good and the service was on point

Ram Krishnamurthy

decent food.. good salads for lunch

Johnny George

Great food and drinks but the service sucked.

Satira Labib

My work group goes here for lunch often. They have great food. I get the goat cheese burger normally and it's delicious. Interesting decor. Servers have been great. Only issue was we asked for dessert menu before and were told they were out of desserts.

You do not own the sidewalk the manager should know that recording on the sidewalk is allowed

Eric Hutton

Very nice and spacious. Music very random. Only real knock for me. Not enough people my age in the house. E

Ming

Nicer inside than out. Food took a bit, but otherwise was good

Ruby Martinez

It was decent. I am giving it 3 stars for the music and the quick service at the bar. The food was okay, steak was not cooked to the correct doneness and nachos were bare. The biggest downer was our waitress. She was awful. I am a good tipper and I did not want to leave her anything. We did leave a small tip because we are not complete jerks. Maybe she was trying to get out of there; I don't really know.

Ameku Ameku

Enjoyed myself didnt eat here,but the atmosphere was awesome.

Charles McDowell

Amelia is the best at customer service!!!!! The food is great! Service is awesome! This is our go to place on the weekends for brunch. The only thing that is very annoying is the attendant in the restrooms? Makes you feel uncomfortable? What a waist of effort and money paying someone to stand in the restroom for Ink and Ivy.

Britney Epps

Place was fun. I was in town for my birthday went to ink and ivy and fell in love with the Brussels sprouts. They were fresh with sunflower seeds, feta cheese, and whit bbq sauce it was an amazing taste. I also ordered the salmon it was alright. The mac and chees I was not good, and looked diff from the pics I seen on yelp.Definitely try the sprouts you will not be disappointed.

Lizzett Rice

The best Ceasar dressing i have tasted in some time. The chef came out to let me know the Black Eyed Pea burger wasn't to his standard so he made me a fresh one. But, honestly that burger needs to be better. I truly appreciated that he takes pride in the customer's experience.

Justin Ferencz

Not cheap but prime location. Only had late night drinks here. Didn't have a great health rating at the time but it seemed cleanly enough for a bar. Service was good. Will return.

Ingrid Franz-Mojica

It's an interesting place, decor very eclectic, drinks were good, husband had a Juicy Jay and I had a Poison Ivy. What we didn't like... some waitresses and barmaids picking their shorts out of their butts.....

matt smith

Horrible service they believe they own the sidewalks I wouldn't recommend this place ever

Jason Efird

Cool place, cold beer and great food

Hayley Walker

The food was great. The servers were quick and super polite. The decor and seating is unique. The only issue was the level of noise but it was a Friday night at prime time. Overall, it was a great experience.

LaShonda Peterson

Some friends and I drove an hour or some to have some drinks and eat some food. We ordered $3 Mimosas, which were great. We ordered wings, which were not cooked all the through and when I asked to speak to a manager he sends a bartender to do his work. Like what kind of matter could you be handling at 1:00am when there is no one in the bar? The bartender told us what the manager had said and asked what I wanted to do. I told him what I wanted he said ok and walked away. The manager then came and spoke to us about 5 minutes later asking what was going on, he looked at the wings, took the plates and offered us new wings. Cool. Now the bartender Jacob was cool at first, he brought us our good then dipped. Said he was asked if he wanted to go home do he said yes, not even getting his tip, smh. First impressions are best but this was terrible.

Jay R Ewing

This business makes an unsuccessful attempt to provide cuisine worth coming back for. The service is a lot more laid back than expected. There are employees on their cell phones and others holding discussion that are far from private and the floor is on auto pilot. There is little attention paid to my beverage. I had to ask for a refill for me and my colleagues 3 times during a very long visit. The location is excellent and the energy at other venues around it more inviting. This place is just too inattentive to its diners needs and that hampered my overall experience. I'm rooting for them however, they just need to step up their game!

This will be our last time to pre-game here. The two previous NFL seasons, my friends and I have gone to I&Is pre-game. Our ritual was to stand in line at 0945, grab a table, and watch every table be full by 1015. The place was always packed and although sometimes the kitchen would get backed up (as everyone tried to eat at the same time before the game), the service was always spot-on. This past Sunday, however, things have obviously changed. This place was never full, nowhere near the usual crowd, and the service was TERRIBLE. (Less people and worse service?!?) Our waiter didn’t know what kinds of beer were on tap, he had zero knowledge about whiskeys or pricing, he didn’t bring all the drinks that were ordered, the nachos were barely warm, “sauce on the side” didn’t come that way, and we had to ask for napkins SIX times! The manager happened to stop at our table and we told him that we were disappointed with the slow service, so he brought us (and comped) a couple of drinks. That was very much appreciated, but still won’t change our minds about coming back. If was difficult to not stiff the waiter. We still gave him 15%, but that was far less than what he could have gotten had we enjoyed our service. Time to find a new pre-game place.

Rita Hill

Great Atmosphere, Excellent place to relax and wind down after work

Curt Day

Good service! Great atmosphere

Kenny Mitchell

I went to the restaurant last night for the first time . I sat at the bar for dinner and a couple drinks. Amanda and the other bartender from Michigan were both outstanding. The service was excellent and the lamb chops were to die for. I never waited more than two minutes for a drink. Great job you beautiful ladles!! Kenny from Boston

Cherelle Rhodes

So my birthday celebration with my family ended before it started. Aparently you have to be fair skinned to be allowed entry if you're 18 and up. We were asked to leave while the other "lighter" ladies were allowed to stay. I won't be coming back. Thanks for the 5 min experience and embarrassment ✌

Y J

A great place for good food and a great party. The decor and venue set up is very creative. Great opportunity to enjoy various flavors. Nice variety within the menu. We enjoyed the Brussel sprouts, lamb, chicken, and veggies. Enough for two to share. Great drinks and specials and the Adult Capri Sun was delicious!

Stephen Lippert

Food was awesome as usual! Staff was great!! Very clean

John Oliver

Nice place to mingle and meet new people!

Vee Newton

There was no AC so it didn't make for a comfortable dinner for my sisters birthday. Grade was lower than expected but the food was good! Waitress was on it!

Jon Stefanides

Ordered a burger. It was spoiled meat. Was offered a new burger trust was now gone and no way I would eat another from here. On the plus server kezia was awesome.

Sharie Daniels

The layout of the restaurant is something beautiful.... However the service definitely needs work. The food is not worth the wait time. 45 minutes wait time to be seated. And it took about 45 mins for the food to come. Food came out cold and once it was sent back, it was cold the second time. We had to ask for silverware at least 5 times. A party of 8 people and we spent about 2.5 hours here from start to finish.

Corey Kightlinger

The hostess was very nice and friendly but food took a while to get out and sadly, did not meet my expectations. My order was completely wrong and slow service. The food wasn't that bad.

Drew Mays

Food isn’t great but it’s a fun spot to grab drinks with friends.

Belle Prater

Nice atmosphere, outdoor dining and the staff is friendly. Food is really good-Brussel sprouts are BOMB!

Travis George

The hostess sat my party at a table and we were there for over 15mins when a waiter comes to us and tells my table to move because another group was sitting there. When we sat down the table was clean ,no menus, no food, drinks or personal items. There was literally 4 empty tables beside our table. The waiter seemed to be friends with the group that appeared out of nowhere and argued with us and said we had to move because its not our table...we got up and left and I will not be retuning

Logan Mack

Wow. Food was fantastic and our beautiful server (who took me and my girlfriend's breath away) was quick, friendly, and understanding. The atmosphere is thematically wondrous. That tattoo Renaissance flair is so cool. Badass class.

MrLaureltonmatthews

Great atmosphere and great food, reasonably priced menu

Sabel Diaz

Was having a good time until the bouncers decided my friend was “too drunk”. He wasn’t sloppy nor angry. He was happy and celebrating his birthday with friends and family. He was a bit loud but music was loud. He was just enjoying himself. No harm to anyone. It was very upsetting and will NEVER waste my time or money on this place.

Nathan Lowe

Great location and friendly staff with a very eclectic vibe. The rest of the experience was just average. I got their shrimp tacos, which were tasty, but small. Fun spot for a first date or with a group of friends.

Darren Simes

The entire experience was very average. Great curb appeal draws you in, only to be underwhelmed by the slow service and mediocre food, all at uptown prices.

Ken D

Garbage... Garbage Food, Garbage service. I'd go into my experience in detail but it's not worth feeding garbage into a trash can. I hate this place!

Veda Cook

I took an outdoor yoga class here on my birthday- it was a special treat for my daughter who was visiting from Atlanta! We actually walked here and back from the hotel! They serve delicious salads & drinks and they have an outstanding staff!!!

Donna Sal

I have been a very loyal customer to this place for the past year and a half; however, I will no longer be returning due to their terrible customer service. On Saturday 9/7/19, my friends and I decided to all meet up at Ink n Ivy like we usually do, we always order the bottle of champagne since they have a $15 special on Saturday and Sundays. For some reason this weekend our server Krystal gave us the bill and we were charged $52 for two bottles of champagne when it should've been $30. We informed her about this wondering if there was a mistake and she tries to fix it and we could see that she was asking other servers and bartenders how to change the price (I think she was new). Later, she gets her manager and they are both on the computer looking like they are trying to adjust the price. Eventually, they both come up to our table letting us know that the bottles of champagne have never been $15 and there is nothing they can do about it. We had a hard time understanding what they were saying since we go there every weekend paying the same price. In fact, we were there the Saturday before and got charged $15 for a bottle. The manager was no help at all and frankly very rude and not willing to listen to the CUSTOMER that has been giving them business for a long time. I am not sure why or how so many servers can get it wrong for the past year and charge us the same price and this weekend the price per bottle increases dramatically. To make matters worse, as were paying for the bill the bouncer comes to ESCORT us out of the building. This whole situation was ridiculous and absolutely disappointing since we all loved this place so much.

Michael Kenny

Interesting place and decor. I had the steamed shrimp. Was pleasantly surprised. Good quality and size. Staff was friendly as well. We just stumbled onto this place.

Paul Aitchison

Really good sports bar with outdoor seating...cannot speak on the food, but what I saw coming out looked good.

Lucifer Frazier

Great ATMOSPHERE, live DJ!! Bar staff was FUN..

Retta Moore

We were a group of three and were greeted promptly by our server. the dining area was very spacious,so that we had our privacy. As this was located uptown Charlotte, it was very differently decorated with an East Indian flare with many columns that were ( we will call it tatooed with elephants, camels, and jewels a plenty) So, they had created a pleasing atmosphere,now what about the food.Let me say,I could have survived on the grilled brussel sprouts...yum...don't know how they made them taste that good! We never ran out of drinks.The food,the spices they sprinkled over the rice was delicious.It is a popular place to gather and I will return.

Michael Peterson

Great place for dinner, excellent service and walking distance to stadiums

Daniel Fieldstone

Oooontz... ooooontz.... ooooontz.... oooontz... bizzle bizzle bizzle bizzle bazzle bizzle bazzle bizzle.... oooontz.... oooontz.... ooontz ooontz.... "Is the men's room full right now?" Said a stranger. "No I am just waiting for someone to get out of the ladies room" I reply. "Oh, thanks man." he says as he walks down the hall. I stand with my back against the wall gazing off into the crowded room. So many people bouncing around. So many TV's blaring. I feel my head spinning from the sensory overload. Then a familiar sound breaks through the white noise: "Happy birthday birthday to you.... woooooooo!!!"

Monte Buhite

Hip atmosphere, great uptown location. Try the salmon salad, with fresh, flaky salmon.

Tyler Walker

Easily a three star place. The food was okay. I had the tacos. Our food and sides came at different times which is fine and understandable even if it made my food cold, things happen. I would tell anyone to eat here for a quick bite. However, what pushes the review down is this establishments complete lack of courtesy to anyone in the area. Loud music until 1:30 am. If I lived in any of the apartments close by I would be appalled. The bass does not need to be that loud. I was ten stories up and a block away and could still hear the music loud as day. I hope the city takes a look at their permit because it's frankly ridiculous. I understand that you have a business you need to run and the nightlife is a big part of that, but it's overkill.

Eudania Burrell

Not a huge fan. The service was great though.

T S

I loved this place!!! I will definitely be back. Appetizers were great! Drinks awesome!

Rhonda Lewis

My mother's day dinner with my sons! It was elegantt and sporty at the same time! I really enjoyed this place especially with my sons!..I would love to come back

No comment on the food and drinks. Just one tip: PLEASE check your credit card statement carefully after happy time. Below is our story: We are using I'N'Y for some after-work fun since it is close to the office. The food and drink are good. I can even give 4/5-stars considering the price. But two weeks ago, we went for a drink and then we got a surprise when checking the credit card statement a few days later It turned out we were charged with extra tips except one. So it was not a human mistake. Seven of us were changed $13 tips on top of a $22 bill. And that $22 already contains 20% tips! Of course, we went back to figure it out. The manager showed us all the receipts: all were added with the $13 extra tips and we found out our signatures were all faked. It seemed like someone printed out new copies of receipts, added extra tips and then faked the signatures. The manager immediately agreed to refund the extra charge to us and promised to investigate. I also don't believe I'N'V is in this. But, a good lesson learned from this: use your smartphone and take a picture of all your signed bills.

Stacy Martin-Duffy

Very good food and good service. Loved the eclectic decor. Loved the French Bulldogs on the ceiling!

Ronnie

If I could give a "no star", I would! The customer service was the worst I have ever experienced. We sat for almost 30 minutes and watched several other tables get their orders taken and served, and they were seated way after us. There are far too many eating establishment options in Charlotte to have to be subjected to this type of nonsense. I will never ever be returning here. This was my first and my last time. The menu sucks anyway. It was my sister's idea to go there - not mine.

JACK PADGETT

Great venue for pregame activities. Food and drink. Plenty of space but limited seating.

Fund Fund

First visit..... Food was great.... Customer Service was excellent. Will definitely come back. I'm a food and beverage manager and I was very happy with the service. Keep up the great work

Steve Johnson

Went in the late afternoon and we really enjoyed the breeze on the patio, good food too

Catherine Robinson

Nice staff and the bartender made me an awesome cocktail

Manochehr Sibdari

Never recommend you to try this place. Staffs are so rude and unprofessional. The food is not good as it's priced.

Renee Smith

The blonde hostess is a genuine sweetheart! I could go there just to be around someone so uplifting! The atmosphere is social and pleasant too. The kitchen could probably use a little authority and supervision I think.

Amanda Michelle

Not my favorite spot in Charlotte I’ve been to but I have nothing bad to say about it. A little more for an older laid back crowd. They cover the patio on the winter so you can still get an outside feel without the cold but the heaters are something fierce !

Emily and Kitty Studio

Awesome atmosphere. Great food and location. Staff is extremely friendly and helpful.

Natasha long

78 health score. If you care about yourself then don’t even consider it! Lol ewww I literally read two news articles online explaining facts: dead roaches in the liquor room, additional to numerous other filthy health code violations. I won’t ever be going back. {EDIT:} they were able to bring it back up to a 94.5 health rating a couple weeks later but no thanks STILL

Laura Sidden

Service was good. Ordered black eye pea burger which was very tasty! The side of broccoli was, however, NOT GOOD! (And I love broccoli.) Others at the table enjoyed their food. One person said their tuna wrap was really good and 2 others said the chicken wrap was good. I'd give it another go next time we attend an uptown event. Kind of noisy and difficult to have a conversation at a large table. The younger folks seemed to enjoy it though.

Duane Russell

It was okay. Drinks were above average. Music was horrible. Servers were above average. I have the feeling this place really varies from night to night. Will try again. Food was not bad, but nothing spectacular. The prices were pretty affordable though. Overall, a solid choice but, not a can't miss.

Chido Enweze

It as good. The white BBQ sauce hit well

Richard Korzenko

Went for a mid-afternoon lunch with some work colleagues. Was pretty empty as it was at a turn. Service was a bit slow unfortunately despite being one of a few tables. Water ran low, beers too. Good came a bit late, peanut chx skewers were too salty, we left half. Overall was good, not great. And, someone was working on the doors mechanically, it was loud as hell and humid inside. Sounded like a jack hammer, I'm leaving that out of the overall, just seemed inconsiderate yet one off.

Isaiah Washington

Bars are kinda sticky, lots of gnats, feels like bar rescue should come here lol. Great atmosphere though! Definitely a place if you're looking to rent out for your business it something, the food they provide tastes great

David Bullock

Great atmosphere, live band playing on a huge patio. Excellent food. Beautiful view of uptown Charlotte.

Pat Eddy

Great atmosphere and great staff. Food was top notch

Shane

Ordered dinner and a beer. Bartender said do you want another beer?, I said “I’m good”. He brought me another one anyways. I said sorry but I didn’t want another beer. He said no worries I’ll take it off your bill. Just looked at bank statement and he billed it on a different receipt in which he never gave me at the restaurant. Been to a lot of places and never had this fraud happen to me. I will be stopping by and speaking to manager when I get a moment.

Luis Patino

I was hoping to make this my new spot to go and grab a couple of drinks after my first time being there and having a great experience, but sadly my second time around going to this place I encountered a HUGE problem. I ordered a couple of drinks throughout the night but something seemed to be off about the prices. I ordered the same drink 4 times and for some reason every bartender gave me a different price. And I purposely chose different bartenders every time thinking it might be have been a mistake or something. Came to find out that they were over charging me when I had my girlfriend go up and order the same drink and was charged 5 dollars less than me. I am extremely upset at the fact that they are actually doing this and idk how many people might've been victims of this act of fraud.

Jasmine Acosta

A nightly hangout with a welcoming staff. The food is ALWAYS DELICIOUS and I have never been dissatisfied. Plus the big screens are great to watch the fight/game on. Love this place

Crys B.

I used to enjoy this place until they ended up on the news for all of their health code violations and low sanitation grade. I will never eat here again. Hell I don't even want to put my lips on a glass with an alcoholic drink in it.

Ryan Clark

It's gone down hill since I moved here in January of 2018, it used to be our go to spot, but the service has taken a turn for the worst and the food is just simply average at best for what you pay. It's definitely disappointing to see how it is now a days....I noticed their health rating was very LOW, they should definitely take more pride in their place...

Marc Fisher

$15 bottle of champagne and OJ deal for mimosas. Winner . Brussel Sprouts starter. The white BBQ sauce and feta mix season point and at $8 it was a huge value and more than enough for 4 people. Def order these. My 3 Tuna Tacos looked and tasted great although the cilantro avacado drizzle needed acid so I added some of the dressing from my gf's salmon salad. Pertinent solved. The place is gorgeous with an enormous outdoor patio with great city views.

Gary P

Late night stop for some much needed libations and eats after a long day of travel. Fast and friendly bartenders, great recommendations to eat and drink and awesome atmosphere. Tried the Saw ale with the Korean BBQ ribs, Brussels sprouts and calamari. On Target!

Mario Vasquez Jr

Food was great. Place was extremely busy, So I can forgive the slow service to a degree. Music was too loud. Sounds better from across the street. Worth at least one visit.

Mike Walker

Good drinks. Fantastic food. The white bbq sauce wings and fries are a must try!

Juanita S

Very nice atmosphere. Had my 1st date here. Had the steamed shrimp

M Lewis

Went here for lunch; great service, great food, great atmosphere, perfect location. Definitely recommend for lunch.

Scott Harvey

Cool place, connected to a club, this is definitely more younger adults, would not suggest taking kids. If your into the club scene check it out.

Michael Simmons

Good hang out spot after the game

Matt Sheets

Came here for Sunday brunch and the vibe was relaxed but kind of upscale. The drinks were a little pricey but the patio is massive and the inside had a very modern vibe. Definitely love the location and the atmosphere!
