44 Mills Kitchen & Tap

We have been going here for years now, and for a very good reason. EVERYTHING is truly 5 stars each and every time! I have almost had everything on the menu with how many times we have been. They also change the menu up from time to time with the seasons. Everything is always paired so well when it comes to the food. I found my favorite drink of all time here, the “Apple Butter Old Fashioned”!! Oh my goodness it is so delicious❣️ The environment is perfect and so comfortable! The staff is everything you want them to be and more. The pictures provided are just a taste of the greatness that they provide. Trust me when I tell you it is ALL PHENOMENAL!!

Upscale dining in a casual location. Welcoming, friendly staff. Absolutely delicious food! Shrimp and grits were top notch. Brussel and Cauliflower appetizer was to die for! Honestly, everything we ordered, even down to the kid's Cheeseburger, was amazing. We WILL go out of our way to come back again. Highly recommend!

We discovered this place last year when we were in town for work. We are back and we came back for our favorite dishes from last year! We had the Steak Papparadelle, which is DIVINE, with homemade pasta, perfectly sous vide steak, and a mushroom sauce to die for! We also had The Perfect Pork Chop. I'm like "I'll be the judge of that!" It was....perfect. So damn good. My absolute favorite on their menu. I could drink that sauce. And the duck confit mashed potatoes???! Stop it.

I got the 44 Bacon Cheeseburger (without bacon), it was super good. My husband got the Cesar wrap with crispy chicken, he really liked it. Our waitress was super nice and attentive.

People are kind and attentive. I went for brunch. The steak and eggs was good and the breakfast burritos were good as well. The people is really what brought this up to 5 starts for me.

A wonderful and tasty find! Another couple visiting Concord with us shared appetizers and burgers - simple menu but LOTS of good choices. Our server Ambri brought out deviled eggs, wedge salad, Mac n Cheese, burger, and all were tasty. The shaved Brussels salad was only mediocre and had many more halves that had not been “shaved” and not chilled. I read in other reviews that recommend reservations were recommended and certainly found that helpful because 7:30PM was the first available on a Thursday night.

The hostess and waitress were caring and nice. They were cheerful and positive. Beverages were served promptly, our waitress came to check on us frequently and allowed us to order at our own pace. She was accurate in her knowledge of the menus. She was a pleasure to speak with. The food was very good. We will come back because the food was good quality (and the staff so good). We had a very enjoyable experience all around.

Food was absolutely delicious and so were the cocktails. I ordered the special which was steak and seafood. The shrimp were big, juicy and well seasoned. We went on a Tuesday night in the place was actually packed so would recommend making a reservation just in case. Staff was friendly and attentive, but not overbearing. Will come back again!

Wonderul dinner experience tonight at 44 Mills! Deviled eggs, calamari and short rib were all delicious. But by far it was the service by Katherine that made the evening extra special. She was so attentive, gave great suggestions on what to order and made sure our drink glasses were never empty. Phenomenal service! She turned a regular dinner out into a dining experience. We will be back and we will ask to be seated in her section if she is there.

This is such a cute local spot that has the perfect ambiance with dim lighting that makes the place more intimate and cozy. Our server Amelia was great. She was attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed. Highly recommend asking for her! Started off with one of the holiday specialty drinks , the mimosa mistletoe which was a cranberry and rosemary ice cube served with champagne. This was so good that more than one round was ordered. The truffle fries are a great way to start the meal. The entrees we decided on was the fresh cut salmon and the roasted chicken breast. 10/10! Everything was perfect to the presentation, portion amount, and the taste. Nothing went to waste! I absolutely enjoyed my dinner here and can't wait to come back!

Solid 4.5 stars. Service was excellent. Food portions are very generous. The restaurant is bustling but quiet enough to hear your conversation without issue at the table. I thought that the food was good but was disappointed in the fried chicken- found it pretty dry.

We started with an order of Calamari appetizer which was cooked to tender crispy perfection. We all ordered the braised short rib. It was phenomenal. Our server was very friendly, attentive and accommodating. She brought out the dessert we ordered with a candle for my mother's birthday, which was very sweet. The chocolate cake was melt in your mouth perfection! It was moist, and chocolaty chocolate without being overly sweet. When you walked in the waiting area is relatively small, but we only waited. Two minutes. I think most people make reservations.; we did not so we were very fortunate that we were able to be seated so quickly. The lighting in here is perfect slightly dim, but not so much. You can't see your food. There is a large full-size bar with excellent bartenders as everyone at our table. Enjoyed their drinks. We will definitely go back.

I came to 44 mills with a friend on a weekday at lunch. It was not crowded and we were promptly seated. Nice ambiance that will make you want to come back. We ordered the truffle fries and Caesar salad with salmon. Everything was delicious and fresh. I still dream about the salmon. Customer service was great and I plan to come back. It's a hidden gem.

What a pleasure I just landed from my travels in Costa Rica and the first thing I want to do is have a delightful meal and 44 Mills. Don't forget Madison for her Cinnamon Toast Martini

We didn't have a reservation but they were able to accommodate with little wait time. It was packed, prime time Friday night. The hostesses and our waiter were a delight. We was cracking jokes and having the best convos. Ok now for the nitty gritty. I ordered a rosé, it was still although it was in the sparkling wine section. It was still good as I could do with either and didn't have a preference. For our apps we ordered the truffle fries and the bang bang shrimp. SMACKING! Both were hella good! The bang bang shrimp had a light, nicely seasoned batter that was crunchy and held with the bang bang sauce drizzle. The shrimp were huge in size. Definitely a reorder. The truffle fries OMG! Every fry was coated in truffle. The parmesan cheese and whatever that white cream sauce they added on top paired so well with the fries that we couldn't stop eating them. No for real. Definitely a reorder. For my main I ordered the 44 cheeseburger. I don't eat pork so they put it on the side so my friend could put it on her chicken sandwich. The burger is a smash burger with 2 patties, pimento in the cheese, lettuce and tomatoes with a house remoulade sauce. The burger was DELICIOUS! The patty was nicely grilled, had some crunch on the edges but was juicy and seasoned! The burger comes with fries but since we ordered the truffle fries I asked to sub. They had salads and so I got the caesar salad. That was a miss. I did like the freshness of the salad. So I will give kudos for that but the dressing was a no go. It was watery and lacking true caesar flavor. I'm definitely coming back! Parking was a breeze since it's in a plaza. We were able to snag a park right in front!

While traveling, we stopped for lunch here today. I had the autumn salad with salmon and a side of cheese grits. The grits were enough for two. The salad was huge and filling and I'm glad the dressing arrived in the side. My husband had the creole omelet with potatoes. The omelet was tasty and the potatoes were amazing. I also had the pear necessities cocktail. Also delicious. Will definitely add to my list whenever I'm in the area. Service was friendly as well including running out after I'd left my gloves.

This place is a must try. We just came in from out of town and looked for dinner options and 44 Mills Kitchen + Tap came up as the first result. Reluctant to try the first place suggested I kept scrolling but came back to it quickly as it had a high rating and it definitely lived up to its rating. We started with the Pimento rangoons (a must try) , butternut squash ravioli and deviled eyes, all of which were amazing. We then tried 4 different mains to get an opportunity to sample a few of there options. We tied the Filet, Salmon, Pork Chop and Short Rib. These were all amazing especially the Pork Chop- tender and cooked to perfection. We ended our meal with the Chocolate Cake and Sticky Bun with Vanilla Ice Cream - again both amazing. The service was incredible and the staff were very knowledgeable, giving great recommendations for food. Water was always flowing. Lastly the ambiance was like a cool hip bar. Mood music and dim lighting elevated the whole experience. If you're on the fence, stop overthinking and just head over and check this place out.

I'm in town for the weekend and decided to stop by 44 Mills and had a great time. I love small, quiet places with great music that fills the background. My server was great attentive and great energy the whole time. For food I had the 44 burger(can't remember what the menu calls it). This is just a smash burger with pimento cheese, bacon, lettuce and tomato. It comes with chips but I subbed it with old bay fries. First if you're an old bay person already then you'll love the fries. Great blend and taste and not too hard, felt like a perfect blend. Now the smash burger was honestly a great choice. I'm a pimento cheese guy and it does take the show on the burger. The sauce they have on the burger compliments it so well. It was a great choice if you're in the mood for one. Overall great experience. This place already has a positive reputation for being really good and I see why. If I come back to the area I would definitely come again and would recommend you try it out.

From the outside you would not expect what you find when you enter the doors. It's definitely got more of an atmosphere going on inside than out. Wife and I got the pimento cheese rangoons which were good, just basically fried pockets of pimento cheese. We also ordered the liver mush croutons which were amazing! I've never had liver mush prepared that way and I would come back just to get that app. For our mains I ordered the shrimp and grits which did not disappoint, the shrimp were big and succulent. The grits were perfectly cooked and the sausage/sauce added that extra smokiness and zing. My wife ordered the chicken sandwich and truffle fries. It's been a while since I've had truffle fries that actually tasted like truffle. Most places have them on the menu and they don't add up, but 44 mills delivered! Service was great, very attentive and polite. And to finish it off the Cheesecake was perfectly velvety and rich, It was so good I managed to find room in my already full belly!

Awesome!! Food was amazing. Especially great was the Livermush croutons. Superb meal and ambiance. Will definitely be returning soon!

This was my first time trying 44 Mills. They've been on my radar for years. We stopped in to check out their Million Dollar Burger for the Cabarrus Burger Madness Challenge and it did not disappoint. The burger was HUGE!! I did not finish it, but I got a good chunk eaten and I was proud lol. We also tried a few cocktails and really enjoy them as well! 44 Mills has a lot of great items on the menu too so I can't wait to go back and try more options. But this burger was definitely the star of the show!! The bottom bread did get a little soggy from the jalapenos but it was still amazing. I will be back next year for their next burger they dream up. YUM!!

I wanted to try something different so me and my adult child went here for brunch. The food was seasoned nicely. Our waiter was very helpful and friendly. The ambiance is peaceful and comfy. I would recommend this place for a nice cozy brunch and their mocktails were very tasty.

Great food - a small menu with very nice, well-designed choices. Some higher-end entrees and some nice value sandwiches. The kids menu portions were also well-cooked and good value for the money. The steak tagliatelle and the butternut squash ravioli were ordered by several people at the table and were both exceptional. Dimitri was a great server, too, with very friendly and helpful service.

Stopped in for lunch on a weekday. We were able to be seated right away. Very nice ambience and atmosphere. We had a very attentive server who checked on us frequently. He also was able to answer all of our questions about the menu excellently. Food came out nice and prompt. The truffle fries were delicious and they were a good quantity. This picture was taken after we started devouring them. The omelette was nicely made; but needed some flavoring. Overall was lovely would come back

Got take out the other night to try the burger of the month. WOW millions dollar burger isn't playing. Super yummy! Great season in the patty and all the ingredients come together for that wow factor. Just not a fan of the jalapeños I also ordered the steak pappardale pasta. So delicious. I had half the burger and half of the pasta for my dinner. So so good. I called in my take out order and pick up was fast.

It's been years since I ate at 44 Mills so I stopped on my way from West CLT to High Point. Chase was the manager that took care of me at the bar. Nice guy and provided the suggestion of their competition burger- $44 Million Burger. The Caesar salad was a good start. The burger tasted great and it had a menagerie of toppings including something called "cowboy candy" . It had bacon, avocado ranch, BBQ sauce. It was quite tasty! The fries were hot and crispy. Plenty of good dressing and the romaine lettuce was crispy and fresh. No issues with this meal. Good place close to 85 for a quick bite or a quiet meal. Cheers!

This has to be one of the better restaurants I have been to lately for lunch. We were greeted promptly when we entered and our waitress came to the table immediately. She was very patient as we looked over the menu, as there are a lot of options to choose from. We started out with the deviled eggs, which I have to admit I'm pretty about. My preference is not to have deviled eggs sweet, but to be more savory. This recipe of deviled eggs was a bit unique and seemed to have some stone ground mustard in it, which I really appreciated and make the flavors a bit different than the average deviled egg dish. We also ordered the fried chicken sandwich with pimento cheese on the brioche bread. I thought this was a good sandwich although it could've used just a little bit more pimento cheese. We also ordered the fried shrimp sandwich which I have to highly recommend, it was absolutely delicious. The shrimp are very large, premium quality and fried just perfect. This is just an outstanding sandwich. The atmosphere is quaint with a casual but contemporary feeling we are very much looking forward to going back!

Another fantastic experience at 44 Mills for lunch. Our waiter was friendly and knowledgeable of the menu. The truffle fries we shared at the table were delicious. This visit I tried the pimento BLT on the best bread! Want to come back for dinner soon.

Great food and great service. While it was a little more than I expected to spend, the experience and quality easily justified it. I'm glad I went.

Was looking for a cool place near PNC arena in the summer and we came to this amazing restaurant. At that time I had the Salmon plate with risotto. And it was amazing. Today we were shopping at concord mills and decided to drop by again. The food is amazing. The menu items are priceless. The appetizers and food and drinks are all so wonderful. Our servers have all been so great and the service is so quick. One of my favorite places and we will be back over and over!!

I visited 44 Mills Kitchen to meet a friend for brunch. To my surprise Brunch ends at 3 PM- the same time of my arrival. The lighting is dim and super intimate. The wait staff is really and attentive. I had an old fashion that was made to perfection. The food has a great appearance but not much flavor. I give it a 3 start at best! The ambiance, overall atmosphere and service is what makes this place so great. Our waitress was Emily. She made great suggestions, had pleasant conversation, and was very professional. I actually would go back just to converse with her! I ordered a creole Omlette with cheese grits and bacon. My friend had salmon with broccolini. My grits just weren't good. They weren't creamy like southern grits should be. Although, people were speaking amongst themselves the environment was not loud. The music was really good! The cake that Emily suggested was delish!

44 Mills is a great quality restaurant in the concord area. I would highly recommend. Different options of food & all made with love. 5 stars for sure.

Service was great!!! Food was good. Ambience to me still felt like a fast casual in a strip mall.

Came in at 3pm (change over from lunch to dinner). Family of 4 (2 young kids) on the wya back from Great Wolf Lodge. Hubby & I had a beer (great selection) after weekend full of kids. Good quality food & very accommodating to kids needs. Good service without hovering.

My mom is obsessed with their quinoa avocado salad and has been trying to get me to 44 mills for a while now. Man, was this meal delicious. I got the bang bang shrimp sandwich and it was incredible. The breading was just right and it really was a lighter sandwich. The bang bang sauce was the perfect level of spice. I get the hype now.

Sat as a 2 top on a Tuesday night, many open tables, full bar with chairs and a very interesting menu, cloth napkins, table clothes and silver. My daughter had BangBang Shrimp with a side of rice, I had the pork chop with seasonal veggies (corn & asparagus) with a side of shaved brussel sprouts and red cabbage. The pork and shrimp were outstanding, unfortunately, The brussels still tasty, but unexpectedly served cold. Our server was very attentive and pleasant. Enjoy!

I was recently in the Charlotte area for a business trip and went to three different places. This was the best meal out of the three. Service was friendly and super fast. I got the bang bang shrimp sandwich for lunch. it was a little pricey at $21, but definitely worth it. The shrimp were huge and had tons of flavor. It's a little messy to eat, but no worries because it's finger-licking good! The apple slaw provided a great contrast to the fried shrimp and the bang bang sauce is excellent, so ask for extra on the side to dip the fries. Speaking of the fries, they were cooked perfectly and seasoned with old bay. They were crisp and crunchy on the outside and the interior was pillowy soft! My only recommendation would be to serve the sandwich on a toasted sub roll. That'd be an epic po' boy sandwich!

I want to thank Hannah, our wonderful waitress, photographer, hostess-with-the-most-gracious-manners for making The Esther Gathering women's ministry Christmas luncheon so delightful. She was attentive, alert, patient, and efficient no matter how many requests we made. Thank you, 44 Mills for Hannah! Our time together was made all the sweeter by her fantastic service.

Best burger in the area hands down and the steak and eggs are top tier good service and good ambiance

Stopped by for lunch with my husband while in town visiting friends and we were not disappointed! I could easily see this being a great spot for brunch. Our food was delicious and our cocktails were great. We showed up on what appeared to be a slow weekday afternoon so we were seated right away and had really attentive service. We both ordered the Bang Bang Shrimp Sandwich with fries. We loved it! I've had bang bang shrimp before but never on a sandwich. Very clever idea! Would eat it again for sure. I ordered the Heirloom cocktail as well and really liked it. Balanced and super refreshing. It's not the cheapest spot around but definitely worth a try.

This restaurant was the perfect brunch spot during my visit. I arrived as soon as they open and was seated immediately. The staff was super friendly and welcoming. The waiter made great recommendations and was very attentive. The parking lot was spacious and the restaurant was clean. Now on to the food.. For starters, I enjoyed black cherry mimosa and pimento cheese Rangoon. The Rangoon was served perfectly with a pepper jelly. They were hot and crispy. For entree, I enjoyed a bang bang shrimp sandwich. The sandwich was loaded with shrimp and served with seasoned fries. I thoroughly enjoyed my dine in experience and will visit again.

Place was lovely! Went with a group of 4 without a reservation and was seated right away, no wait. It was around 5:30pm on a Saturday. We all ordered some fountain sodas, no mixed drinks for us this time around. Our appetizers consisted of a liver breadcrumb type dish, which is a souther thing and something I've never tried, but it wasn't bad! We also got some deviled eggs that were cooked perfectly! Forgot to take pictures of those sadly. The last appetizer we got was the calamari, which was served with an aioli. I personally prefer marinara, but this was still quite tasteful. The entrees were the star of the show! The shrimp and grits were cooked to the T and the sausage that was in the grits had the perfect kick to them. My dish, which was the steak and parpadelle, was absolutely fabulous! The steak was cooked absolutely perfect medium rare and I couldn't stop eating it! Consistency of the pasta was Al dente and top tier! Lastly, I do have to say, the service is a bit slow and we did not have someone come over and offer water or drinks until about 10 mins after seating. Also, it was an extremely dim restaurant, not much light!

First time visiting this place, walked in and got greeted right away by the hostesses. I was there early on a Saturday so wasn't crowded so I got to sit anywhere I chose. I opted for the bar. I admit when I first sat down it took a few min for a worker to acknowledge me with a hello even with them right there in front of me and one more min I prob would have walked out. But once I was acknowledged, customer service was fine and very attentive. I opted for the crispy pork loin sandwich. It was HUGE! Got the truffle fries to go with it. Honestly prob the best sandwich I've had in a long time. It was juicy, flavorful and had all the right toppings to make this a hit. The fries were hot and crispy with amazing flavor as well. I definitely couldn't finish everything in one sitting. I did save a bit of room for dessert and got the butter cake. It was absolutely delicious. So warm and gooey with the ice cream on the side. Prices are reasonable and with all the food, it was well worth it. The place is kind of small so if going during a busy time, I can imagine wait times can get extensive.

We had amazing service and a great table. They were very accommodating to vegetarians. Highly recommend the lemon and chive risotto, autumn salad, truffle fries, shrimp and grits, and the chicken sandwich were great foods to share. Overall, the place was nice, cleans dimly lit chill. A great spot to catch up with friends and have bites to share!

Food was so fresh and delicious Plates are Hugh Not much parking close but worth the walk from the parking garage If we lived nearby we would be regulars

I picked up my bestie from Concord airport and wanted to have some brunch with a twist. The Nutella expresso martini was to DIE for. I had the strawberry waffles with eggs over medium. It was excellent and the eggs made perfectly. My friend had the avocado toast and she loved it as well. I will definitely go back. The ambiance was great.

Good creative food. The atmosphere is nice, plenty of easy parking. The menu is limited but appears to have something for everyone. We were there around 4pm and the music was good but loud! It was Not relaxing & made it hard to talk at a conversational tone. The waiter was fragile & a bit condescending.

This place didn't disappoint! My friends and I visited for the first time. The food service and ambiance were amazing. I had the pumpkin raviolis and steak Pappardelle, it was delish, melts in my mouth! Our server Bella was so cute, polite, fun and informative!! I can't wait to go back

I am finally writing a review after attending this establishment three times. This last time we attended was the final straw. The first time we went was on a Sunday for brunch, and it took forever to be seated. The food was just okay, overpriced. The service was terrible. We thought that maybe they were having a bad day so we went back another time a long time later, during the week for lunch. Seated quickly, service was better, food still just okay-- we were the only ones in the restaurant. This final time we attended it was a Saturday afternoon-- busy, we were seated quickly. Our service was not great and also the food was below average and took 40 minutes. Not only that, but another table that arrived after us, with double the people in their party, got their food before us. When we finally did get our food, we were given an apology for the delay and told it was because of a shift change... but again. This is the third time we have been unimpressed and frankly, while it's a great location, I don't think it's worth the money or time. I ordered sweet waffles this last time and will need to go pick up food on the way home because I'm still hungry. Additionally, my husband's fries with his chicken sandwich tasted like they were done in old grease and they weren't hot. I wouldn't advise anyone to attend here when they are busy, and if you go when they aren't busy and are okay with paying high prices for average food-- then you will be sure to have an *okay* time.

Delish!! I had the shrimp and grits and the flavors were on point. So so good. Shrimp was perfect, grits were great, sausage, peppers and sauce were amazing. I also had a local beer (Perception is Spoonfed from Divine Brewing) which was really tasty as well. The key lime flavor was really good. Cool and quaint spot and my server was really nice and helpful. I hope to be back soon and try other things on the menu.

The menu had so many items on it that looked good, we opted to just eat appetizers for dinner. The burrata was as good as the description sounds and the corn risotto was our favorite selection. We have been here a couple of times now, but our server Max made this experience even better. He was attentive, perfect recommendations, and very warm. It leveled up our visit.

Friendly service They all seem to know their regulars it's Like coming into "Cheers" where every body knows your name. This wasn't my go to restaurant in recent past, but it definitely has had an upgrade. Tonight however the blackened shrimp was heavy on the spicy and salty. I will however return bc their summer strawberry whiskey drink was on point.

The presentation is great but the flavor is lacking. On the steak skillet the potatoes were undercooked and the overall dish was dry . For the omelette it was also bland . Overall this place is over rated and has fancy looking food ,but the taste is underwhelming.

Stopped here with the wife on the way to Charlotte. To remind everyone, my wife has a gluten allergy and is dairy sensitive. I have a tree nut allergy, Alpha Gal and am diabetic. Yeah, we're fun.... Anyway, this place was perfect. In a strip mall , it's noisy and tables are alittle close together . There is outside seating. We had the deviled eggs to start (fantastic) and she had the quinoa avocado salad while I had the Caesar with blackened chicken. The Caesar was good but croutons were not crunchy (to each their own). My wife thought her salad was "one of the best salads (she) ever had." That is a big compliment. Our server was very attentive and helpful with our dietary restrictions. They do have a gluten free menu. Ambiance, as I said, is noisy. Tables alittle too close together - but otherwise fine. I think little kids might be ok - the noise might be distracting and the chance to get over stimulated is definitely present. I'd say a good date place and a great place to take significant other. Drink menu was extensive with some creative cocktails . If we lived in the area we'd definitely be back !

This is our 2nd visit & we're just as pleased as the first. We came for late lunch so it wasn't too crowded, ordered calamari as an appetizer, which had some peppers for a little heat, olives & a tasty remoulade. For entrees we ordered the pork loin sandwich with/cabbage slaw, the Ahi Tuna (from app menu) & a side of mushroom risotto. All dishes had great presentation & were delicious! They offered dessert but we will try them next time we are in Concord! Many dining options in the area & this will be our first choice!

I tried 44 Mills Kitchen with a friend for the first time on Tuesday, October 8th. It was a beautiful evening, and we decided to sit outdoors on the patio. Parking is plentiful in the lot right outside the restaurant. The interior was actually a little bit smaller than I had anticipated. This was a Tuesday; therefore, there was no wait; however, I can see a possible wait on a weekend. Our server was very nice, kind and made sure we were well taken care of. For my drink, I had the spiced paloma, which was just wonderful. As for my meal, I had the chicken sandwich, which came with a side of the herb fries. The herb fries were delicious. The chicken sandwich was good; however, honestly I didn't see anything special about this sandwich. I felt like it could have come from anywhere and it didn't stand out as special to this restaurant. I would definitely return again to try another item on the menu.

44 Mills is a nice addition to the Concord area! Service was good although a bit slow at the bar. Not sure why...I usually visit during off peak times when there's a minimal amount of guest. Seated at the bar with myself and only one other guest, I watched the bar tender walk back and forth several times before taking my order. Although pleasant, I didn't understand why whatever was being done couldn't wait until after I was served. Also, the food is surprisingly really good, but the menu is limited. 8 out of 10.
