Herons is an upscaled restaurant, the ambience is very elegant, the deco is stylish and service is excellent. Food is also great. I have been to this restaurant three times. This time, we had an Asian themed lunch, which greatly exceeded all our expectations. I hope Herons continues with this tradition and offers other ethical cuisines Like Indian, Spanish or Mediterranean.

Always a delight to visit for a meal. Decided to go for New Year’s lunch and we were able to secure reservations at our selected time. Although the restaurant was crowded the service was quick to grace our table and was professional and courteous. On this big day, they had a Special Menu which we enjoyed. The food was perfect and we even took leftovers home for later. We are soooo glad they are back to regular operating hours. We thoroughly enjoy ourselves every time we visit.

Had lunch after the NC Museum of Art. Great beer selection and appetizers. Not too hot on the spices (we don't like the hotness to take away from the overall flavor). Shrimp with the Korma sauce was excellent and the Naan was just slightly crispy. All in all, an excellent meal.
