Just moved to Plaza Midwood in Charlotte NC and I’ve been dying to try Coaltranes. We went on a Thursday night and they had $4 glasses of wine but I had a 22 ounce beer instead. They only had one server but she was absolutely incredible. We shared a bunch of things including the jalapeño queso, the maple chipotle wings, the flank steak and the chorizo. Each main course came with two sides so we had the corn casserole, the green beans, the mac & cheese and a salad. Everything was really delicious. The mac & cheese could’ve used a little more flavor. Will definitely try the rotisserie chicken next time.
First time here by chance walking by. Glad we stopped in. The chef made our drinks, explained the menu and was very welcoming. The dishes that he recommended were just right for what we wanted, something light and relatively healthy. They have an outdoor patio upstairs, not the best views but it is covered in case of rain. Parking could be an issue in this neighborhood, there is a lot for paid parking a couple of blocks away off the Plaza. Ride share so you can have fun and enjoy other places in the hood. Other than parking, I would like to see an expansion of the local beers available and add some Rye Whiskey to the bar. We hope to visit again and try some of the other items on the menu.
As always the service was exemplary. First time trying the Jalapeño Mint Margarita, it was fantastic. The stuff avocado is a must try. The chicken was smoke to perfection. I always get the sweet corn casserole, it’s my favorite and I wasn’t disappointed. This time I tried the mac & cheese and I’m glad I did. We’ve been here 4 or 5 times in the last couple years and have not had a bad experience.
