I was invited to Bentley’s for a birthday party. The reservation was made for 8 people so we expected the gratuity. Just a heads up, any party over 6, 1 check comes out for the table and you can either split the ticket or everyone pay 1 person their part. Anyway, after finding parking in the garage deck, the walk is short to the restaurant. The atmosphere was nice and the drinks were made right. Hats off to the bartender who made mine! The menu is limited which is expected for this type of restaurant. The cheapest dish on the menu is a salad for like $13 and the most expensive I believe was a like over $100. The menu doesn’t include a chicken dish so you’re left with red meat or seafood for my meat eaters. The staff were knowledgeable and attentive. The food did take a minute to come out but was hot when it did. I ordered the Stuffed Shrimp Provençal. The dish has four stuffed shrimp, small roasted potatoes, and Brussels sprouts for $38. While we had a great time and I really enjoyed the strawberry cheesecake shortcake, I will not visit Bentley’s again. To me the food was just ok. I would recommend trying them as the other guests really loved what they ordered.

I dined at Bentley’s restaurant recently solely for the caviar service, and it did not disappoint. I ordered the kaluga caviar, and it was presented beautifully with all of the accompaniments you’d expect with caviar. The bellini were thinner than typical, but that let the caviar shine even more. I also ordered the tuna carpaccio. The tuna was seared and the cuts were thicker than I would expect from a carpaccio, so I would say it leans more into ahi tuna. Nevertheless, it was delicious. The waitstaff was attentive without being overbearing. The only thing I didn’t have a totally positive experience with were the shaken cocktails. They had chunks of ice in them, and the espresso martini had an odd consistency. Overall, it was a positive experience, and the caviar service met every expectation.

Was wanting to try this place for a while now and visited for my wife's birthday. It was slow being a Wednesday night but the service was really good. Was slightly disappointed in the steak, I ordered medium rare and it came out basically well done, despite there being a big disclaimer on the menu about no guarantees if your order a steak past medium. Flavor was good though so gonna chalk it up as an off night for the cook. The lobster and escargot were really good though. Definitely appreciated the lobster coming out already out of the shell.

I had one of the worst dining experiences of my life at Bentley’s Charlotte last night; I brought someone special here for her birthday and expected a refined evening. What we received instead was rushed service; lukewarm food; dismissive management; and an unprovoked verbal confrontation from a staff member as we were leaving.
To start, our server Jaime was pleasant; however the pacing immediately felt rushed. We had just ordered cocktails and appetizers and were trying to relax, talk, and enjoy each other’s company. Despite that, she hinted that we should order everything at once and assured us she would “course it out.” We were not ready; and when she came back again asking for our entrées, I had to stop her and ask if there were any specials. Only then did she share them. It clearly felt like the goal was to turn the table quickly and not allow us to enjoy the evening at our own pace.
When our entrées arrived, both dishes were lukewarm; not restaurant-quality hot; so technically cold. I ordered the New Zealand Elk Chops medium rare; the doneness of the meat was correct; however the temperature to taste was not. My date’s Stuffed Shrimp Provencal was also barely warm; she simply chose not to make it an issue.
Before our server could return, another staff member approached the table; a barback or server who introduced himself using three names, the middle being Taylor, with a foreign accent. He asked how everything was. When I politely mentioned that my dish was not hot, he pushed back and insisted that medium rare meat is supposed to be that temperature. He misunderstood that I was referring to the overall temperature of the dish and not the internal doneness. The conversation was going nowhere; I told him he was going to irritate me and to please get his manager.
The GM, Jim, arrived and repeated the same stance. He told me, “This isn’t a steakhouse; it’s not supposed to come out sizzling.” This comment was unnecessary and insulting. Bentley’s sells steaks; the expectation is that food arrives hot. He eventually reheated the dish; however he offered no apology, no empathy, and no gesture of goodwill even though this was clearly noted as a birthday dinner on the reservation.
The worst part, and the reason I am writing this review, happened as we were leaving. The restaurant was winding down and nearly empty. As we approached the host stand, the same staff member from earlier (the one who introduced himself using three names, with Taylor as the middle name) suddenly yelled from behind the bar, “Hey; you’re rude and need to learn some manners.” I assumed he must have been speaking to someone else; but when I said “Excuse me?” he repeated it louder with an obscenity and said, “You’re rude and need to learn some (said a word that I cant use on Google) manners.” He then began to approach me from behind the bar; the situation escalated quickly and multiple staff members had to physically step between us to prevent it from becoming a full confrontation. It was shocking; unprovoked; humiliating; and unacceptable.
I am a business professional who manages multimillion-dollar relationships in Charlotte; I frequently host clients at fine dining establishments throughout the SouthPark area. I also worked in fine dining for several years throughout college many years ago; I fully understand appropriate service, hospitality, and expectations. What occurred at Bentley’s was unprofessional; hostile; dismissive; and unlike anything I have ever experienced in a dining setting.
I will never return personally or professionally; and I will advise my colleagues to avoid bringing clients here. Bentley’s needs to evaluate its leadership and retrain its staff; no guest should ever experience what we did.
If I could give zero, I would.

The food, wine & customer service were amazing! Matthew was very funny, kind and attentive. Only thing I didn’t appreciate was my lobster mac & cheese was semi cold. Other than that it was great. Will definitely return.

My wife and I frequent Bentleys a lot. Typically having a great time, up until yesterday (Valentines). Food was cold, cowboy rib eye room temp, wife’s diver scallops less than room temp. Server (owners daughter) barely checked in. Worst part of the experience was noticing the owner check in and speak with all the other patrons except my wife and I and another younger couple seated behind us. Not a good look as it came across as discriminatory. We have been to oak steakhouse equally as many times and ownership there is leaps and bounds more hospitable. Mentioned this to the host on the way out about ownership and instead of acknowledging and taking accountability she responded with attitude and failed to see the point, if this keeps up place will be out of business sooner than later.
