_
_
I stayed in their Premium King Corner Room with the large balcony !Really the perfect room, no complaints! And that bathroom water pressure 😩… top tier ..
_
They also have a #rooftoppool and bar that is HUGE, with views of @vanderbiltu .
On-site restaurant @henleynashville with amazing food (review coming 🤭) and live music during certain hours on the weekend.
_
Valet Parking 🅿️

The lobby area was dripped stunning #interiordesign , the staff was really friendly and helped with everything we needed during our stay .

Now this is the perfect spot for a phenomenal steak experience! @flemingssteakhouse takes the classic American steakhouse to a whole new level.
The ambiance is refined, stylish, and buzzing with energy. It’s such a warm and inviting place, and you’ve got options to sit in the open dining area, on their spacious patio, or at the upscale bar.
We tried their 2-course Filets of Fall menu, available now nightly through November 19. It includes a Carrot Ginger Soup to start and 4 topped Filets to choose from for your entrée. It’s out of this world! Trust me on the soup, it’s a taste explosion with toasted cashews, coconut-chili cream, and green onions. The star of the evening was, of course, their signature Filet Mignon with Black Garlic Blueberry Reduction & crispy goat cheese – what a flavor combination! The other topped Filets to choose from are: Filet & Alaskan Golden King Crab leg with passion fruit butter, Filet & Garlic Roasted Colossal Shrimp in spicy Worcestershire sauce, or a Filet & Crispy Maitake Mushroom with rosemary demi-glace and tarragon aioli.
In addition to the 2 courses, I treated myself to their Chocolate Lava Cake. It’s a rich chocolate cake with a molten center of Callebaut Belgian chocolate, served with premium vanilla ice cream and a house-made tuille. Perfection! Next time you find yourself in Charlotte, do yourself a favor and check out Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse, and tell them @the_ashley_nez sent you. You won’t be disappointed! 🍽️🥂😋
