Fahrenheit

Decent food, excellent service. The roof has a blazing fire that the owner (who is in Detroit) seems to be very attached to. It was 95 degrees and fire was blazing.

Fahrenheit is a beautifully situated restaurant — on the 21^st floor with gorgeous views of downtown Charlotte. The food, however, is inconsistent.
Here is my take having sampled several dishes during a large work dinner yesterday:
— Must order — Ahi Poke Nachos, Crispy Tempura Rock Shrimp, Crispy Calamari.
My favorite was the ahi poke — the tuna was melt-​in-​your-​mouth fresh, the nachos nice and crispy.
— Good — Grilled Kurobuta Pork Chop, Kobe Beef Short Rib Steamed Buns.
They’d made my pork-​chop medium-​rare, which was the right call. The rice they served with it was divine!
— Meh — Maine Diver Scallops, Chorizo stuffed dates.
Wish the scallops were cooked a tad bit longer, the chorizo not as long.
— Don’t bother — Charlotte Nachos, No.1 Contender Cocktail.
Service was acceptable — they filled my water glass regularly (makes me happy), but tried to take my plate away often (makes me sad).
Worth going to for the views, as long as you order selectively.

Location, Location, Location. Food and drinks are pricey for what they are, I’m not one to complain about the price of food or drinks, but they were nothing I’d brag about. The view is what did it for me, seeing all of Charlotte while dining is a nice treat. The elevator is a bit confusing if it’s your first time, but it’s an issue that’s easily overcome. The service wasn’t too impressive, but overall not horrible.
I wouldn’t go there on the regular, but it’s fun to bring people new to Charlotte or just visiting.

Was so excited to finally go after all the hype but was very disappointed. 41 $ Steak was way undercooked and had to be sent back-​still wasn’t cooked right when it came back but hunger prevailed. $ 30 pork chop wasn’t cooked either and was also sent back also returned still not cooked however my appetite checked out by that point so a little lukewarm rice turned out to be dinner. Their short list of beer options was made shorter as they were out of 4. So glad we bought the 85 $ gift certificate for 45 $ from the radio or not only would we have been hungry but would’ve spent way more than what it was worth.

Cool spot, with awesome views of downtown/​uptown Charlotte. Drinks are pricey, but delicious. Defiantly worth the view. We went on a Friday evening and it was probably one of the quieter bars in Charlotte. Quick service, lots of servers walking about.
The butler was my favorite cocktail
Defiantly worth a visit

Great food — great view — great drinks. I wish they had outdoor seating but maybe in the future they will.

Unfortunately I was less than impressed. Customer service was non-​existent and I paid $ 30 for two glasses of Chardonnay… Cheap Chardonnay at that, I was just so shocked by the lack of effort put forth by the staff. I truly believe that if the customer service was up to par you would make a difference in the customer experience. You’re paying for the view basically. Hope management makes the necessary improvements, I can certainly see the potential of this location.

The service is shockingly terrible, and the food is just OK. The view is incredible, so I would recommend going there for drinks, a couple of pictures from the rooftop around sunset, and then dinner elsewhere. The hostesses are very attractive and put together, but clearly are not skilled restaurant workers. The waiter was fine when we could find him, but he certainly wasn’t helped at all by the bussers or hostesses, who seemed like they had better places to be. For the money, I would recommend going almost anywhere else.

Fantastic! Kobe short ribs on the soft light buns– delicious! Dates, wrapped and stuffed– scrumptious!!! Excellent service and atmosphere. Plus the outdoor fire pit area and view is perfect for a nice romantic spot or photo. Had the vodka mule and it was perfectly mixed and had an edible candied orange dipped in chocolate. Oh my my my. Yes please!

This place is breathtaking! Had a business dinner here a few weeks ago and I am still thinking about the delicious scallops. Our server was so helpful and extremely polite. She made sure we were always taken care of and explained the menu very well for us. The drinks were amazing. I love that they serve warm bread with this delicious butter with chives before your meal. For dinner I had the scallops which were served with creamy Cauliflower Purée, Brussels Sprouts, Bacon, Pomegranate Molasse. Everything about this dish was spectacular! For dessert I tried the Goat Cheese Cake which was served with spiced blueberry compote, black pepper pecans, orange-​basil sorbet. It was very different but delicious. The views from this establishment were amazing! I could just go there and sit by their rooftop fireplace and enjoy the views.
I highly recommend this place, you will not be disappointed!

This place is awesome to bring friends and family. Especially if they’re visiting from out of town. That being said, I don’t think I will be a «regular» here. There’s nothing super stand out on the menu. Everything I’ve had is still great, but nothing that made me want to come back asap. However, If you’ve never been, you need to get up there at least once! Also, staff was very friendly and accommodating!

Brunch menu: YOU HAVE TO TRY THE FRIED BISCUIT DOUGHNUTS. They are bathing suit seasons worst nightmare and your mouths best friend.
Drinks: Overpriced.
View: One of the best in town. Even if you just go and grab a $ 5 Bud Light, you have to experience this view at some point. It is a great place to take guests!

I come here for one major reason: The View! There is no better spot in Charlotte to take in the skyline and a drink.
I do enjoy the food as well, but love the view more. During my last visit I had the ahi tuna served rare and it was very, very good.
Would recommend any of the following for food–
*Short ribs– if I didn’t order tuna I would get this, it is delicious
*Bacon covered dates– always order for appetizer and would highly recommend
*Calamari
*Nachos– the «chips» are actually medallion sliced potatoes
The wine list by glass is smaller but has some decent options. They were out of the Napa Valley cab we wanted but the manager recommended some alternatives.
We usually go here for work dinners but I’ve been here on the weekends for a drink. I love taking visitors to Charlotte. The view is always a crowd pleaser.

When: Sunday Brunch 1145a
Pros: Nice atmosphere and Beautiful views. Clean and hostess very nice and professional. Fried Chicken had good flavoring and lamb sausage was pretty good. Diced Potatoes were nicely cooked and flavored (best part of the meal)
Cons: food was very subpar and for $ 84 for 4 people 2 adults and 2 children (7 – 14), I definitely expected better. The girls had the CPT crunch pancakes and the brioche French toast. The French toast came with some type of cream of wheat topping slopped on the French toast and the CPT crunch pancakes were entirely too huge with some CPT crunch cereal pieces topped on it. Why??? I myself had the chicken and waffles option, Waffles were okay and the chicken was a chicken leg and breast. Why you would put bone in chicken on top of waffles I do not know. Now I as the customer have to work extra to cut around the bone just to enjoy My meal. The loco moco was just that, loco. Ramen noodles cooked and shaped into a patty and Fried, lamb sausage in a patty form and egg cooked over medium. Crazy combo but needs some more thought. Everyone’s bacon was nothing but fat and little cooked again for $ 84 I should not have to ask if our bacon can be cooked all the way.
Suggestions: instead of bone in chicken try either chicken breast or tenders, fully cooked bacon, if waitress is serving a family with kids ask if the cream of wheat topping is okay and have two options for the pancakes small and large. Also, maybe use a pulled lamb option as oppose the patty and let the ramen noodles go or have another option like a potato pancake or even over their potatoes.
I am not completely writing this restaurant off I believe their dinner menu might be a better suited for us, brunch just didn’t go over so well.

Go to this place for the view!!!
Fahrenheit is located on the 16^th floor of the Hyatt The area is pretty posh (do people even use that word nowadays??) looking with a large bar, dim lit area, comfy seating, and large windows to take in the view.
I have never eaten any food at this place and usually hit up Fahrenheit as a pre-​dinner drink spot. This Saturday, we came as part of a Bachelorette party. The place was slammed and half was roped off due to a private event. If you are hoping to eat here, I would encourage a reservation.
We decided to grab a drink before heading outside on the terrace. I ordered the Khaleesi. Yes, 99% of the reason I ordered this drink was because it was called Khaleesi and she is a bad ass. Anyways, this drink was very good and very strong. Great flavors and one was definitely enough! I thought the mixed drink prices were a bit high. Some creeping into the $ 15+ range.
We wandered outside and took in the amazing view of the city. There are tables and seats outside but the place was so busy that it was standing room only. We were definitely not the only bachelorette party who had the same idea of coming here! There were fire pits set up and running and it was nice just to stand against the railing and look out upon the city. Excellent first stop of our evening!

Go for the view, go for the view, go for the view…
I can honestly say I would give this place a higher review if the food was better. The menu is Asian inspired and but the execution is a little pretentious. The service was not as good as you would expect for the prices of the restaurant. Perhaps it was because I went with my family and this place is geared towards a more ‘adult’ crowd, but nevertheless the service should be the same no matter what.
The butter poach lobster tacos were nothing to write home about, neither was the duck fried rice. The papaya salad needed a little more kick to it, it is Asian after all… The best app that we got was the nachos, it’s covered in local beer cheese and bacon. I would get them every time.
Though the lobster mac and cheese had a bit of lobster, the actual cheese portion of the plate overpowered the lobster a little too much. I was also really looking forward to the NY Strip… but it needed salt… a steak… that needs salt at a restaurant… without salt at the table… smh. The bright spot of the dish (figurative and literally) were the Brussel sprouts.
I go to Fahrenheit a lot for the view and drinks with friends, but I’m not sure I would shell out top dollar dinner here again. Overpriced drinks for the view I can handle, the food needs to catch up to the prime location of the establishment.

We were staying at Hyatt hotel within the same building as the restaurant so we decided to check it out. We came on a Friday night after dinner so we can just have some dessert and check out the views of the city. It’s located on the 22 floor, pretty much at the top of the building. The views of the city are amazing. It really sets a nice ambience while you are dining. This is a nice place to go on a date. Our server was Kala. She was extremely knowledgeable of the menu and just food in general. She was also very enthusiastic, funny and attentive. She helped us with our dessert and drink selection. I ordered the adult milkshake chocolate flavor with a shot of Rumchata based on her recommendation and it was delicious. I literally could have finished it in one gulp but I wanted to savor the flavor as long as I could.
I can’t really speak for any other food because I didn’t try any but the ambience and service alone merit another visit. Be prepared though as this place is not cheap. However you cannot beat the view, which is probably the best in Charlotte.

Aaron did an amazing job serving our party of 6 during the busy Queen’s Feast Week, a dining out celebration where select restaurants in the Charlotte area offer an abbreviated menu for a reasonable price ($ 35). This gives patrons the opportunity to try several dishes on the restaurant’s menu, spend less than normal on the usual 3 course meal and creates business buzz for participating restaurants.
Fahrenheit was a no-​brainier once I went to check the venue and saw its amazing rooftop view of Uptown Charlotte. It’s located on the 21^st floor and gives an amazing skyline picturesque scenery of the city. There is also a gorgeous fire pit for those taking a glimpse in the cooler evening hours.
On to dinner: the salmon was delicious, prepared medium just as I requested. The chocolate mouse dessert was decent and the avocado appetizer was tasty enough to get the palette going but nothing to write home about; personally I felt the bread was a bit overbearing and would’ve been better served on a thin crostini instead.
I particularly enjoyed the ambiance of Fahrenheit more than anything else. Linen napkins, dim lighting, tea light centerpieces, an intimate full bar area with plush lounge seating and secluded booths for couples. My experience was memorable and I’d certainly recommend Fahrenheit for date night, girls night out, happy hour or just celebrating a special occasion.

I heard some great things about this restaurant, so I went with a friend for his birthday celebration. While the ambiance and the view were spectacular, this restaurant fell far below my expectations.
#1. Fahrenheit, your vegan menu is pathetic and sad. Vegans eat more than salads you know, so step your game up there.
#2. I ordered from the vegan menu. The first salad? Full of pancetta. They remade it and brought out a second one – cheese in it. There was no communication between the server and the kitchen and I was THOROUGHLY disappointed. The only bright spot was the lemongrass rice; I have to admit that was awesome.
I won’t be returning because my overall experience just was not good.

But oh, about that view…
Imagine yourself, suspended amidst Charlotte’s tallest buildings. Now, insert a cocktail, some bites (no vampires allowed) and hopefully a few laughs and you’re good money.
I always love dropping by here whenever I’m in town. The view is just epic and no matter the time of day, I’ve always been able to find room to enjoy the view around the perimeter on the balcony, even when the restaurant and bar are pretty full.
The outdoor fire pits are dazzling and elegant and service has always been stellar. The food that I’ve tried has been pretty decent too, but keep in mind the portions may be a little petite depending on what you choose to order.
If you’re looking for a skyline view and an opportunity to drink a cocktail with your pinky up without an overtly pretentious crowd, then Fahrenheit is a good look for you!
