We have been going to Dot almost weekly for over two years and there's a reason we keep returning. It's is the place you go for expertly crafted cocktails prepared by knowledgeable bartenders. I would never say it was a bar that was suitable for everyone - for us, we appreciate the focus on the drinks and the atmosphere created by a lack of TVs, warmth from the staff and the sense that you're at a place that cares about presentation (both of the menu items and of its customers).
We occasionally get food and it is consistently good, but the cocktails and people are what keep us coming back. For us, the cocktail menu is full of well-balanced drinks, and if you want to play around with different liquors/flavors, the bartenders are well equipped to make whatever you're looking for. Just keep in mind a lot of ingredients are seasonal.
We do suggest, especially for parties of one or two who are serious about their cocktails, sitting at the bar if at all possible. But remember the bar is reserved too, so you can't just walk up and sit.
For the people who complain about ID requirements - regardless of you age, don't go out to bars without your actual ID. I've been legally able to drink for 20+ years and I know I still need my ID when I go out drinking. Why would a bar want to possibly lose its liquor license because you didn't bother to plan ahead?
Another point to clear up, membership is $10 per year, not $25 as someone erroneously said in another review. And we consider it money well spent.
The atmosphere and charm of this small speakeasy makes me add Dot Dot Dot to one of my top 5 spots in Charlotte. The staff were extremely personable and genuine and never got tired of chatting and answering our questions. The food was exquisite and I'm excited to see what the chef comes up with in the Fall.
Dot Dot Dot is one of the few “must see” bars in Charlotte. I’m not one to usually be wowed by most places, but I have to give credit where it’s due, and Dot Dot Dot deserves high praise. Their bartenders are absolute professionals, and we had a great time conversing with Rachel and Casey. They recommended multiple cocktails, and each was incredible. The menu is extensive, and don’t be afraid to try something new or a drink that might seem too far outside your norm. If it’s on the menu, you’ll probably like it! Cheers! 🍹 🥃
Truly a special experience. My partner and I went here on our anniversary, and it was a great spot to facilitate good laughs and good times. We each ordered two different cocktails from their varied menu, and we were blown away by their spectacular presentation and flavor. We even got a complimentary glass of champagne for the special occasion! I recommend coming on an empty stomach and enjoying a few of the small plates. The menu changes often so I'll make a point to come back soon and try some more dishes.
A great place to gather and have some delicious food and drink. Frequently come here with my middle-aged parents for a dinner with conversation. Excellent cocktail list.
Thank you Dot Dot Dot for a wonderful night out with my hubby. From the time we sat down until we left we had such a good time. The food was absolutely divine. The drinks were phenomenal. We both had the steak and wow! Every Server/Crew in that building knocked it out of the park. They all knew the menu and what paired well. We will so be back!
Vibe was fun, cocktails were interesting and really good for the most part. Our party of 4 did several small plates and then shared two entrees. The food was all good but nothing really blew us away. It's a fun spot, and I would come back for drinks with friends, but I wouldn't come for dinner again.
So worth the two trips around the plaza it took to find this place! FYI it’s on the backside of the shops near the loading dock for the hardware store. If you’re expecting to find the name of this restaurant in neon lights, think again. In true speakeasy fashion, you’ll only find a symbol to indicate the entrance. The door person will be there to great you. It’s members only so you’ll need to join to enter. Once you’re inside, it has the intimate, dimly lit vibe of a traditional speakeasy. The cocktails all looked very interesting. I enjoyed the Secret Garden. It was not only beautiful but delicious. We tried the gnocchi, seared scallops, fried chicken and tuna. It was all perfectly plated and prepared. You absolutely must visit this place at least once if you’re looking for a unique and memorable dining experience.
Had a great time here the other night! It was our first time and the bartenders made sure to take care of us, especially Nelson — he was amazing. Amazing atmosphere and great food.
While this place was difficult to find, (given the speakeasy theme), once inside it had a dark, moody vibe in the best way. Food and drinks were spectacular, albeit a bit pricey, but that’s to be expected given the experience. I was at another restaurant the next night and had their Old Fashioned but it not compare to DotDotDot’s. Highly recommend for pretty much any occasion.
Great cocktails but recently tried dinner and I wasn’t disappointed. Keep it up!
Food was superb. The ability to modify menu items vegan was extremely appreciated. Beautifully designed. A little hard to see the menu with low lighting, but we managed. Total vibe!
Upscale well hidden speakeasy behind a garden center featuring comfortable tables, booths, and an incredible bar with knowledgeable staff and bartenders. Expert mixologists passionate about ingredients make exquisite cocktails unlikely to be found at most places. Jenna was especially well informed about base spirits, amari, mixers, and more and was able to create unique experiences in addition to the well designed standard menu. Went for a private event and food was outstanding. Will come again!
We love this place, the food and drinks are out of this world. Their new spring menu is incredible! The Brussels sprouts (which I normally don’t like) were amazing. Thank you to our awesome waiter Jarret! He is always very knowledgeable and attentive through the course of the evening. And the rest of the staff that I’ve interacted with have always been professional and kind. 😊 thanks dot dot dot!
If you value the art of cocktails, this is a place to go! ALWAYS great atmosphere and staff! Good
food as well!! Unforgivable experience and great time guaranteed! Highly recommended!
