This place is professional, clean, and it seems working on their own upscale dining experience. Only thing that really bothered me is that the waitress touched my shoulder while talking to me, i enjoy my personal space and do not appreciate physical contact with strangers. Another thing she struggled to understand is no dairy no animal products besides fish, aka lent diet, she tried to convince me that butter on bread is okay even tho that does not align. Other than that my food was great, i had fish with veggies and my husband had bolognese which he was happy with but proceeded to tell me he enjoyed the homemade ones better. He did really love the bread- definitely worth a try. Overall solid experience, mocktails are delicious by the way. I would appreciate less push to order more items of the menu.
P.S. My ratings are based on whether I believe I could make a better or healthier version at home. If food/drinks/service impress me, I’ll be happy to come back. If not the stars reflect that.

This is an excellent restaurant and very popular. First of all, we had the scones with 2 kinds of butter which were delicious. I had Oysters which were tender and seasoned in a great crunchy batter. I also had a cherry non-alcoholic drink which was delightful. We were offered coffees and I had latte. Great ambience and service.

Everything we ordered at this place was absolutely delicious. The ambience is very cute and romantic and is perfect for a date night. To me, the yeast rolls are a must try. They are soft and buttery on the inside and crisp on the outside. I also enjoyed the general tso’s cauliflower. The golden prawns were not to my liking since it had less salt, but the smoky flavour was amazing. I loved the mushroom ravioli and it’s one of the best ravioli that I have had (missed to click a picture). The branzino with crispy skin was also delicious, but I think the side with the fish could be a better one. Summing up, really enjoyed the food and time at peppervine and would definitely be back here to try out other dishes.

First time eating at peppervine & the food was DELICIOUS. Our server Louis recommended the mushroom agnolotti & I am so glad I went with his recommendation. The best pasta I’ve ever had! The bison bolognese was amazing too. Every dish you can tell is made with love & high quality ingredients.
The customer service was great. We will for sure be back!
For 4 dishes & yeast rolls, it came out to $150 before tip which really is not bad at all for the amount of food. We would’ve gotten dessert but we were stuffed 🙂

Made a reservation for my ladies 30th birthday and it went great. A few things I should comment on. The place has a great ambiance and is not to loud on the inside. The seating is a bit close depending on if you’re seated at the smaller section but that is not enough to say I didn’t enjoy the visit. I do have to say maybe I glanced at the photos of the yeast rolls a bit to fast in the reviews because we were expecting them to be much larger than they actually are…. No big deal they melt in your mouth!!!! But beware you will need to order more than one batch. The portions are a bit small depending on what you order but the food is pretty good. DO NOT expect to come and dine for two for less than one hundred dollars!! It’s worth it at the end of the day!
***** The chocolate hazelnut bar is crazy good I’m pretty sure they do not have this on the menu anymore but was served to us as a birthday dish. 10/10

We recently celebrated our anniversary at Peppervine and had the most lovely experience. I think we found new date night spot in Charlotte! There was a little bit of a mix up in the beginning as to who was taking care of our table, but that was quickly resolved by the management and our waiter, Nicole was very kind and polite. They brought out two glasses of champagne to thank us for celebrate our anniversary at Peppervine, which was a very kind and attentive gesture. The food here was absolutely delicious! We got the infamous yeast rolls and the mussels for starters, and yes the rolls were amazing. For our mains we ordered the 24 hour short rib and the hanger steak, which were both delicious! We couldn’t decide what was our favorite bite of the night as everything was very delicious and tastefully served. We can’t wait to be back soon!

This was our first time and enjoyed great food, service, and experience. Server was very knowledgeable about the menu and everything recommended was fantastic. Mushroom pasta was the best bite of the night. Cauliflower for taste and lions mane for texture. Both incredible with nice slaw. Young elevated vibe but not stuffy. Can’t wait to return!

5-Star Dinner Review of Peppervine – Charlotte, NC
Tucked into SouthPark’s Piedmont Town Center, Peppervine delivers an exceptional dining experience that seamlessly blends culinary artistry with warm hospitality. 
Ambiance & Atmosphere
The contemporary, art-filled interior exudes sophistication without pretension.

Despite a bustling crowd, the acoustics are thoughtfully designed, ensuring conversations remain intimate. 
Culinary Highlights
Peppervine’s progressive American menu emphasizes locally sourced, seasonal ingredients presented through globally inspired small and large plates. Standout dishes include the General Tso’s Cauliflower—crispy tempura florets glazed with a tangy orange sauce—and the melt-in-your-mouth yeast rolls, baked to order with Maldon salt. The 24-Hour Short Rib, served with potato mousseline and bordelaise, showcases the kitchen’s ability to elevate comfort food to fine dining.
What to wear
For Peppervine in Charlotte, a smart casual to business casual dress code is ideal, with some guests opting for slightly dressier attire due to the upscale ambiance.

For Women:
• Stylish blouse or dressy top with tailored pants or a skirt
• A chic dress or jumpsuit

• Accessories kept elegant and understated
For Men:

I was here for dinner with family in late December, after Christmas, 2024. The holiday vibe in the area was spot on!

First time. Upscale so no shorts tank tops or sloppy dressing. Love they offer 3 courses it allows you time to enjoy and relax. Everything is made to order not prepared in advance. The food was delicious. Make sure to order their yeast bread. Yummy. The staff was very professional, knowledgeable and friendly. Absolutely yes yes yes

The server was very attentive and informative. Took the time to discuss the meals and the various wines. A couple of us ordered the blue crab lumache with jumbo lump crab meat. It was okay. You had to search for very small pieces of crab. For the money I would have preferred to actually enjoy chunks of crab and not pieces smaller than your fingernail. The other two people at our table had the Bison Bolognese. I know it says ground bison, but in my opinion I think the customer would prefer to actually enjoy eating bison meat in the form of chunks and not tiny ground up pieces assuming it’s bison because the small pieces do not allow you to enjoy the actual taste of the meat. There was no Wow factor for either meal. That’s what brings in new customers and returning customers because they talked about their great meal.
