We sat at the bar and the bartender was so excited to create 2 different drinks for us, instead of a typical named drink. We told him to be creative and make any kind of drink with our favorite Gin, and he did! To top it off, the food was amazing!

Dynamite meal. Well-made cocktails and friendly, knowledgeable staff. Really enjoyed my old fashioned. Burrata was dynamite as was the chocolate cake dessert. Trout was okay…was hoping for a little better tasting sides. Overall great experience and look forward to returning.

Wonderful cute place to grab dinner. You have to get the Heirloom tomatoes. They’re perfect and in season. Our server was terrific. Erika? Didn’t eat much as we had a late lunch but I asked about dessert and she recommended the flan and let me tell you. She was right. I’m still thinking about that flan. It had a coffee cream on top that blended perfectly. The scallops were eh.

The atmosphere of this place is awesome, super calm and dimly lit makes it an enjoyable aesthetic. The food was absolutely immaculate: the peppers, scallops, tomatoes, crab ravioli, chocolate marshmallow dessert and the blackberry tres leches. Not exaggerating when it was the best meal my wife and I ever had. Our survey was Greg and he was very knowledgeable and a kind energy.

Had a great experience at Customshop Handcrafted Food in Charlotte NC. They have a small menu and amazing cocktail and wine list. I ordered the hangar steak rare with fries. It was absolutely delicious. It was perfectly cooked and the fries were crispy and delicious. The bartender made an amazing dirty martini as well. Our server was friendly and attentive too. Will definitely go back.

I can’t recommend customshop enough if your looking for a great date night. Everything we had was absolutely amazing and prepared perfectly, combine that with the low like ambiance and you have a romantic date night. The duck was and crab ravioli were two of my favorite menu items. Then the both desert were amazing (flan and brioche bread pudding) but the bread pudding stole the show. I am on assignment at one the the near by hospitals and it is worth coming in and sitting at the bar after a hard day of work and enjoying with a glass of wine.
