Die besten Restaurants, für die sich eine lange Anfahrt lohnt, in Quail Hollow

My wife and I had dinner at Red Rocks the night after Valentine's Day so it was still bustling. We had to wait about 20 minutes past our reservation time to be seated, but the kitchen staff more than made up for the slight delay with their incredible service. After we were seated, our server grabbed our drink order and then took our food order. Our salads were on our table within minutes of our order, and our mains came immediately after we finished our salads. It was very impressive considering how busy the restaurant was. The kitchen staff was crushing it! My wife had a surf and turf with a 4oz filet and coconut shrimp while I opted for a 7oz filet. Everything was cooked perfectly! My filet was one of the best I've had in Charlotte, and this isn't a high end steakhouse. We have lived in the area for a while and I always passed over Red Rocks for other places as the funky menu names made me think it was gimmicky. My bad! We will definitely be back soon! 10 out of 10!

Our experience at Kounter was, as usual - outstanding. After living in the Rock Hill area for most of my life, my husband, friends, and I have enjoyed Kounter multiple times in the past - and when we came back to town to visit with my family and celebrate my birthday, I wanted to make a reservation for lunch. When we walked in, our table was ready and we were seated immediately. The chef and the rest of the staff had taken the time to write a hand-written note on a card to wish me a Happy Birthday, which I felt was a very special touch to our visit. The staff was friendly, attentive, and great at communicating. The food... WOW, the food. I got the Black Truffle Grilled Cheese with Smoked Tomato Bisque and the flavors were insane (in an incredibly good way). My husband got the Bussin' Bussin' Burger with Crispy Asian Brussels - and again, it blew us away with the flavors. I could have eaten an entire pasta-sized bowl of those brussels. My parents got the Cubana with the brussels and the Parmesan Creamed Corn - also very good. At the end - they surprised me with "Mom's Chocolate Pie" and they had placed a single lit candle in the center. It was the perfect touch to end the meal and the pie was scrumptious. I have obviously, always enjoyed Kounter - or else I wouldn't have made a reservation to celebrate my birthday with my family there. With that said, after this visit, I felt the need to come to the internet and rave about how truly incredible this little gem of a restaurant is so others will also know. This was the perfect visit to a restaurant for me. It was even more special to see the names of the Friendship Nine carved into the wood lining the walls. What an incredibly special place to celebrate my birthday and the history of the location. Bravo to the entire Kounter team for creating such an incredible place for locals to enjoy an incredible menu, a friendly staff, and a little bit of our history. Thank you!

Had a wonderful time at Firebirds, went for Valentine’s Day dinner! Service was great, we got drinks, which were very tasty, our specialty appetizer was wonderful, and the food was very good! Everything came out pretty quickly, and we had a wonderful time.
