Once upon a time, Jeff and Jamie quit their corporate jobs, strapped on backpacks, and set out to see the world. They ate steak and frites in London, pasta in Italian cafés, crêpes on the streets of Paris, and meats and cheeses in tiny Spanish bars. They wandered without a plan, savoring the feeling of unhurried time and dreamily chatting about someday opening a restaurant of their own.
Eight months later, they returned to the States ready for a new start. Less than a year after coming home, the awning went up on their very first restaurant in Charlotte’s eclectic NoDa neighborhood — and their dream became reality.
It’s been over a decade since those first doors opened, and today they’re more dedicated than ever. They now have six unique, award-winning restaurants — Ever Andalo, Growlers Pourhouse, Haberdish, Leluia Hall, Olivelli Deli, and Supperland — each designed to add to the food fabric of Charlotte in a meaningful way. The goal is simple: encourage every guest to relax, savor, create memories, and enjoy themselves.
