• Guacamole Stack with the Autumn Negroni

Ghostly echoes of pre-Prohibition cocktails are beginning to be heard around Charlotte, and you can rely on the bartenders at Soul Gastrolounge to serve imaginative cocktails and creative small plates. Nosh on marinated anchovies, perfectly grilled lamb chops or pork belly tacos with a watermelon salsa bundled in a flour tortilla, all the while sipping Soul's twist on the classic Negroni, here a vivid orange and made with Aperol and Lillet rather than Campari.
