Wow, the masterminds behind 5Church restaurant have done it again. Familiar comfort food with a sophisticated twist. These are not your mother's recipes.\n\nYou may remember this location used to be Vinnie's. They have completely gutted the place and given it one hell of a makeover. From the ceiling, to the bar and the super cool front door... it's all absolutely beautiful. \n\nLet's talk menu.\n\nChilled shrimp: by looks alone... you wouldn't realize this is a cold plate dish. Tasty play on shrimp cocktail.\n\nPeppedew Poppers: MUST GET APP. I love peppedews a whole lot... stuff them with cheese and fry them... I'm in heaven.\n\nMeat loaf: it's topped with sriracha ketchup. I repeat SRIRACHA KETCHUP. There should be a law that all ketchup comes this way. I went with sauteed corn and mac n cheese for my sides. I cleaned my plate.\n\nChicken: my friend Julie got this. She loved it. She was torn because she really wanted a burger, but had to run the Thunder Road half marathon the next day. She saw a picture of it and immediately googled how bad is it to eat a bacon cheeseburger before a long run. Don't worry, we will be back to get that burger.\n\nDessert: cheesecake with salted caramel walnut topping. Sinfully good.\n\nNightshade Martini: pomegranate, mint and cucumber water. Scared to try a drink with cucumber? Don't be! It doesn't have a huge cucumber taste. I would describe it as clean and refreshing. And soooo good. \n\nCadillac Jalapeno Margarita: fresh jalapeno, foam and cayenne pepper. Perfect blend for a spicy kick.\n\nA woman in the bathroom was raving about the hot dog. I bring this up because of the fact the woman admitted that she didn't even like hot dogs. She said it was that good.\n\nService was top notch. All levels. \n\nCongratulations to Alejandro, Patrick and Mills on another great Charlotte restaurant. I'm already thinking about my next meal there.
