STIR is the perfect restaurant to enjoy a night out, host clients, or sip a craft cocktail over a dozen oysters. Located in South End, the restaurant is an open-air concept with a large, heated outdoor patio. We are open for lunch, dinner, and weekend brunch.

Our cold bar and kitchen offers fresh oysters from North Carolina and beyond, traditional Mexican and Peruvian ceviche, and classic entrees and specials, all prepared from scratch.

STIR is famous for craft cocktails. We freeze and carve 300-pound blocks of artisanal ice in-house, age certain cocktails in oak barrels for richer flavors, and place others on draft for crispness and carbonation. The result: categorically elevated cocktails. Our passion for fine spirits also compels us to find and share rare bottles, many of which are extremely difficult to procure.

We welcome Charlotte to enjoy our unmatched cocktails, fresh seafood, and classic dishes in an atmosphere of genuine hospitality.

The menu was different than shown online - there were a few dishes I was interested in trying that weren't on the actual restaurant menu. Our waiter was very kind but clearly the restaurant was understaffed. Overall we enjoyed our meal, but would have liked to see the previous, more unique brunch menu items.

This was my second time visiting this restaurant. I must say this is one of my top favorites. The service was good and the food was good. The only complaint I have is about the wait time for the food and a missing side item. We waited over an hour to receive our food. I substituted the healthy rice with roasted vegetables, but didn’t get my vegetables. After asking the waiter about it he gave me a lot of fluff saying the vegetables were mixed in. Clearly I only had Salmon and potatoes in my plate no vegetables in sight. Overall it was another good experience.

The food was decent, the drinks were average to above average, and the food was good. However, the service was terrible. It could have just been our server, but the entire ambiance although nice was chaotic and unorganized.

Great service, excellent food. We were a little chilly next to the overhead door (it was closed), but not enough to ruin our evening. Quiet enough to hold/hear a conversation, but lively enough to feel like you’re “out”.

I made New Year’s Day reservations for 6 to celebrate my boyfriend’s birthday. He and I had 2 drinks at the bar while waiting for our guests. Bar service was good. Once we were seated, the service was horrible. We had to ask multiple times for soft drinks/juice for minor children. Food was cold and delivered prior to bar drink orders. Manager did follow up and comp drinks, but I nor people in my party will not return.

This was my first time at Stir. I made a reservation for brunch on Christmas Eve. Food was great, service was AWESOME, but it was FREEEEEEZZZZZZINNNNGGGGGG in there (granted it was 20 degrees outside). I wish someone had come in earlier and turned on the heat so I ate quickly and left. But I'd definitely go back on a not-so cold day 😂

My friend and I went to STIR for brunch and enjoyed every minute of it. We were able to get seated immediately upon arrival; our waitress was very pleasant and helpful with menu suggestions; we received a complimentary brunch platter while we waited for our food to arrive; the ginger lemon drop & shrimp & grits were amazing! We’ll definitely return.
