Located at Atherton Mill in Charlotte’s historic South End neighborhood, Indaco (Italian for “indigo”) serves Italian cuisine. Wood-fired pizzas, hand-crafted pastas, housemade salami and cured sausages fill the restaurant’s menu which can be enjoyed family-style or a la carte. With an open kitchen, and a comfortable atmosphere, Indaco can seat approximately 85 guests inside for a casual night of food and drinks. The wine list is focused on affordable Italian varietals, the Gin & Tonic cocktail is on tap, and the fresh sodas are made in-house.
Large windows fill the restaurant with natural light that reflects off the white subway tile, wood accents and butcher block tables. An open kitchen invites guests to keep an eye on the action while enjoying the sights and smells of Italian cooking. During warmer months, a 44-seat patio invites guests to dine al fresco.

Wanted to love this place but went for Valentine’s Day. Salad was good, but ordered the duck pasta (really good) but the lobster pasta was hard to come back from. Overall lacked a lot of flavor and basic seasoning like salt. We both left feeling underwhelmed - might’ve enjoyed some pasta at home more. Service was not super engaging

We had our team holiday dinner here, and it was outstanding as always. They were able to comfortably accommodate our group of 25.
The food was amazing—we had a mix of pizzas and pastas, and everything was absolutely delicious. For dessert, we shared tiramisu and donuts, which were truly incredible and the perfect way to end the meal.
Their cocktail selection is top-notch, with drinks that are creative and expertly made. They also offer fantastic mocktails, which is a huge plus if you’re not in the mood to drink alcohol.
This is our third year in a row doing our team dinner here, and it’s been an outstanding experience every single time. Consistently great food, drinks, and atmosphere. Highly recommend for group dinners or special occasions.
