Located at Atherton Mill in Charlotte's historic South End neighborhood, Indaco (Italian for "indigo") serves Italian cuisine. Wood-fired pizzas, hand-crafted pastas, housemade salami and cured sausages fill the restaurant's menu which can be enjoyed family-style or a la carte. With an open kitchen, and a comfortable atmosphere, Indaco can seat approximately 85 guests inside for a casual night of food and drinks. The wine list is focused on affordable Italian varietals, the Gin & Tonic cocktail is on tap, and the fresh sodas are made in-house. Large windows fill the restaurant with natural light that reflects off the white subway tile, wood accents and butcher block tables. An open kitchen invites guests to keep an eye on the action while enjoying the sights and smells of Italian cooking. During warmer months, a 44-seat patio invites guests to dine al fresco.

Food and drinks were hit or miss. Pasta (tartegelle?) with pancetta was so salty, could not finish. Bibb salad had no dressing, very dry. Ordered 2 dirty martinis and couldn’t finish with the amount of vermouth the bartender added. Octopus was very tasty and server was very good and attentive. Overall, would not come back.

Indaco never disappoints. I went there for a special occasion with a special person and Chef Eric and team provided an absolutely impeccable experience. Alyssa (please forgive me if I misspelled her name) was our incredible server, and she was so great on every level (we can't wait to go back and see her again!). Overall, Indaco offers an incredible dining experience and I will be going back often. Thank you, Indaco. Sincerely, Jeffrey Giambrone

Food was great. Server was helpful and attentive. A bit of a miss on this visit that we had a very dirty table full of crumbs and nobody made an effort to clean or pickup dirty empty glasses for the better part of our meal.
Indaco- CharlotteResponded 2 days ago
Good morning Jaime, thank you for your feedback. I am so glad to hear you enjoyed the food and attentive service, but i am truly sorry that the cleanliness of your table was a miss. That's not the experience we want for our guests, and i appreciate you bringing it to our attention. I will be sure to address this with our team so we can do better. We' d love to make it up to you, please don't hesitate to reach out if you decide to visit us again. Hope to see you back soon! Kind Regards Management

We enjoyed dinner on the patio and had an outstanding server! Other than the foccacia appetizer, our food missed the mark. We all agreed the flavors weren’t there — all of our pasta dishes desperately needed salt and ultimately we left underwhelmed. Perhaps stick to cocktails on the patio and apps if you visit.
Indaco- CharlotteResponded 2 days ago
Hi CLTfoodie, We appreciate your feedback and are glad to hear that you enjoyed your dinner on the patio with our outstanding service! However, we're sorry to hear that our pasta dishes didn't hit the mark for you. We take pride in our food and we're committed to providing flavorful dishes that are well-balanced. Your comments about the salt have been noted and we will certainly work on improving this. We hope to have the opportunity to serve you again and provide a more satisfying experience. Best Regards Management

The food was really good, the focaccia was the star of the show. The atmosphere was nice, think of a more casual date night restaurant with good Italian food.

indaco was amazing! Had the sweet potatoes and focaccia as an appetizer and the sweet potatoes had a unique spice that’s very hit or miss but the focaccia was great! Had the gluten free spicy pizza, our waiter took my allergy very seriously and was so kind, and like the focaccia amazing!
