Inspired by an era of time that’s long past, the underground space built originally in 1912, naturally has a speakeasy, prohibition-era feel with its original brick walls and exposed ceiling joists.

We stopped in Charlotte last night as a pitstop during holiday travel and stumbled upon this true gem. What a delightful and delicious experience! The Jardin salad (with seasonal vegetables and fresh herbs) and the Sole Meunière was on par with anything you’ll find at the top chefs in NY or Philly. Fabulous wine list - and Luke was fantastic.

I wish it was informed by the restaurant staff ahead that preferred quite time schedules are post 9:00pm. We came in at 7:00 pm on Wednesday and the all the tables were full with clients which is great for the business but it was pretty noisy. It was so noisy that Chinese Buffet noise level was much elegantly elevated compared to what I experienced at Fahrenheit that night. People come here to have a romantic date/anniversary and high level meetings. Unfortunately I couldn’t feel such elegancy vibe during our visit due to the high noise level by the other tables around. Maybe having a classical music in background can help to let people know to calm it down bit
