Marquee Charlotte

It was an interesting atmosphere of adults of different ages, they play all kinds of music. Was an electric atmosphere everyone was have a good time. It was just the parking, I don't know why I will be paying for parking and when I was about leaving there was no one watching the car, what if?. Maybe there were some street parking around which I didn't see any.

Attended a Clark Atlanta University alumni event for the holidays at the Marquee Charlotte. We arrived pretty early and in the bar was just us, so it was a nice intimate setting. It is a two-story building with two fully functioning bars, upstairs and downstairs. When you first walk in you are greeted by security who just wants to make sure you’re not bringing in any weapons or vapes. They are very friendly. When you enter into the building there is a reception area to the right and a DJ area to the left, next to a nice Instagram/selfie area with ”The Marquee” in a neon sign. Upstairs has sections for guests to celebrate their birthday or a special event. That’s where we sat. There are high top tables as well as sections with comfortable, plush couches, and it’s decorated like a nice uptown loft. The drinks are reasonably priced. I had a regular margarita, a tequila sunrise, and another margarita with mango all with 1800. (Tip: Make sure to specify the kind of tequila you want in your drinks. At any bar not just this one.) The bartender, Mandi, took care of us for most of the night and our waitress was very attentive and explained the menu options as many of us ordered different things with dietary restrictions. The music was amazing. Earlier in the night, there is a playlist that plays a lot of AfroBeats and Afro Caribbean music, but after 9 PM a DJ comes in. I happened to know the DJ who was a DJ in my hometown, DJ Hukher.
I’m always looking for a nice 30+ crowd and this was it. Overall a very grown and sexy vibe and the food and drink were top-tier! I will be back.

Nice but too compact for my liking. Upstairs seating and decor nice. I like the colors and plush of chairs. Nice upstairs bar. Women bathroom is very clean. Service with waitresses had gotten very slow and they seem to be confused with orders as the crowd increased.

Very nice location I came in today with a party of 6. Thanks for not being reservation only, the ambience is chill, music very nice. Person helping us was not transparent with us on the pricing of the food or the malfunctioning in the kitchen which if we were told it would have been fine. I like that the manager came over and took full responsibility for the issues in his establishment. I will be back in Charlotte soon and will definitely go back to this location. I am a new Yorker myself that has moved down south so when I'm there I will be back thanks.

Update to my post: I'm sorry I did say that it was like a tapas feel to the establishment and just reading that is is Great JoB will be back soon. Thanks Kennedy.

Warmed food for breakfast after being there 2 days ago food is spot on.

I came here for LIVE MUSIC THURSDAYS with the Rhythm4U Band @rhythmislife32 at @themarqueecharlotte!!!! SINGERS ( & POETS./Spokenword artists..) this is for YOU!!! It was a wonderful experience. My waitress/ server D, she was so attentive and kind.

I truly enjoyed myself here. They had great cocktails & tapas!!!! I tried the Italian Panini-, and the first try had turkey pepperoni, so I opted to just take it to go. The owner/chef remade it with jalapeños which although I do not like spicy foods, was still a delicious experience. The fries were crispy (to go). I ordered fried green beans, which honestly were my favorite! It came with a garlic aoili.
The atmosphere was elegant yet modern. It is a great space for anyone who would like a nice cocktail and small plates. Date night, solo or couples even groups, birthdays were being celebrated as well.
The music, both singing and live band, was highly energetic. The crowd couldn't stop singing and dancing. They truly enjoyed my poetry as well...#shamelessplug.
The cost to dine and drink matches many of the more upscale venues in the city.
The ambiance was worth it, as was the food. They also had outdoor seating and tables with a heater.
It's definitely your go-to space to enjoy fun, food, and festivities.
