Dogwood: A Southern Table - Charlotte

Sorry to see this restaurant closing at the end of August. We've always enjoyed the food, atmosphere and service. Had a wonderful duck breast dinner with good friends and thoroughly enjoyed the evening.

Have been several times before and had a good experience but last night the food and drinks were coming out extremely slow (cocktails took about 35 minutes and when they arrived they were mediocre) and the food was meh. Fried oysters were over breaded, salads were soggy lack luster, pork chop was inconsistently cooked throughout.

The braised short rib was so tender, a knife was never needed. The staff was excellent and very attentive.

I enjoyed my meal. The fried oysters was delicious especially with the light breading fried and great flavor. The shrimp and grits was fast too. Food tasted fresh and hot. Service was great too.

We all thoroughly enjoyed our dinner last night. Our waitress was wonderful, the food was so delicious, and the atmosphere was fantastic. We are already recommending our friends go see you before you close. Thank you very much! Nancy
