Saturday night, we were going to a 7:30 show at the Blumenthal. 6:00 reservation and at first the host said we needed to wait. Within a few minutes, he offered the 2 of us a hi-top for 8, which we accepted. Waited 15 minutes at the table and all that had happened was our water glasses were filled, without a word spoken. We left and went across the street to SoHo Bistro. The sweet woman there ran the dining room and takeout by herself and gave us much better service.

My husband and I dined at Forchetta during Charlotte’s Restaurant Week. We almost didn’t make it, as there was a huge snowstorm the night before, and the streets were treacherous, even for the short few blocks we had to walk from our Uptown home. We were glad that we made it, however, as it turned out to be a very pleasant and memorable evening. From start to finish, our waiter Bobby and his staff made us feel welcomed and special. All were warm and friendly, and the service was impeccable. It was also a quiet and cozy place, although to be fair we were one of only a few to brave the ice, and the snow outside probably contributed to the cozy feel. Nevertheless, it felt like an intimate date night. Bobby guided us in the choice of dishes and in the wine pairings for each course. We started with seared scallops and lobster bisque, then went forward to filet mignon & shrimp for me and pork medallions for my husband. The lobster bisque was a bit bland, but otherwise all dishes were perfectly cooked and seasoned. The desserts, a flourless chocolate cake with raspberry sauce and a domed chocolate cake, were both tasty and rich enough to require taking portions home. It was a memorable night, and we will definitely return.

Not a fan….Queens Feast menu ….with a name like Forchetta we expected Italian food….they need to study how the food is presented in Italy if they want to claim they are an Italian restaurant….you never serve three people and the fourth person waits over 10 mins for their plate…

I came for the Queen's Feast. It took
FOREVER to get served, as there was only 1 server and she had 2 large tables. However, Miranda made up for it once she was finally able to break free from them to come say hi to me. I took the recommendation of the hostess and ordered the area scallops, filet with shrimp and dome cake with the wine pairing. The scallops were average; the seat could've been better and the red onions in the relish were very sharp. The parsnips gave a delicious sweetness to the dish. The wine pairing didn't seem to go well but it was still good. For the main, the macaroni was average, the asparagus was overcooked, but the shrimp was good with great flavor and the steak was cooked to a perfect medium. The wine pairing was delicious. For dessert, the dome cake was light and fluffy and not too sweet. The port was heavenly (I may be slightly biased, though, as I love port)! Was it worth it? I think it was a decent value for the cost. Would I do it again? I would definitely come back for dessert and to see sweet Miranda.
