Self-described 'farmhouse chic' awaits diners at Halycon at Uptown Charlotte's new Mint Museum Uptown, voted Best New Restaurant by
The Charlotte Observer.
From the restaurant's website:
"Halcyon, Flavors from the Earth is a celebration of artisinal farms, dairies and wineries from the Carolinas and beyond . . . a true seasonal dining experience featuring the creations of Chef Marc Jacksina."
Full bar. Serving lunch Mon–Fri, dinner Tue–Sat. Sat brunch 11 am–3 pm, Sun brunch 11 am–5 pm.
"In addition to a sensational French onion soup, a stuffed quail had my dining companion uncharacteristically quiet. A mushroom starter in a melt of chevre nestled in crêpes proved to be a hardy rendition of familiar fare. Densely rich beef short ribs arrived with luminous root vegetable hash while the smoke of the grill perfumed the asparagus beneath a marvelous salmon special."
