Carpe Vinum 121 - Salisbury

Excellent food. Friendly, helpful staff. Will definitely return.

I have been here many times and each time has been exceptional. While dining here is definitely more costly than the other establishments in the area, it is well worth it. The staff remembered me and make the dinner even more pleasant.I suggest making reservations at least a week in advance, or more for peak dining times or larger parties. There is a full bar and wine list. The servers are very knowledgeable when suggesting which wine pairs best with your preferred entree.My favorite meal here has been sharing the house salad and side of garlic green beans as they are both large enough for two. For my entree I love the sea bass.The chef rotates specials and I would suggest trying them. I’ve never been let down. They sometimes have the most velvety crème brûlée I’ve found on the East Coast (NY City included).They do have a few courtyard tables for alfresco dining in nice weather, but the atmosphere inside is romantic and welcoming for all seasons. If you haven’t been to this downtown gem, what are you waiting for?

Mackenzie was the best waitress and this was the best old fashioned I’ve ever had. Beautiful atmosphere as well.

I am so thankful to live in the sophisticated small town of Salisbury, NC and have this restaurant as part of the mix. We had a great meal on Friday night. The food, service, and the ambiance were all fantastic. The staff obviously took great pride in their work, and in their restaurant. Service was far beyond any expectations and equal to what one would expect in a Michelin rated restaurant. Prices are reasonable compared to the experience.Music was a little loud but that would be my only nit. We will be back many times I expect.

Absolutely our favorite place in Salisbury. Not inexpensive, but very good quality and excellent return on the price. Creative menu, exciting options, tapas style allows to try many different things. We love this place
