Charlotte North Carolina is known as the Queen City. It was named after Queen Charlotte who was a Patroness of the Arts and wife of England’s King George 111. It is a new Southern city with quite a few skyscrapers. With big buildings, comes the dream of opening a restaurant where the cuisine is as good as the panoramic skyline views.

Herb and Pepper Crusted Tuna Carpaccio

 We were seated at a window table in this very stylish restaurant and ordered cocktails to start. We loved our appetizer which was a fresh and tasty Herb and Pepper Crusted Tuna Carpaccio with soba noodles and soy mustard butter sauce. Next we enjoyed. The Queen Charlotte Salad made with baby greens, shallots, pearl tomatoes, and champagne vinaigrette.

Baked Sea Bass

The 12 oz Bourbon marinated Filet Mignon which came with wild rice pilaf, sautéed mushrooms, grilled asparagus and delicious truffle bordelaise sauce and the fresh Baked Sea Bass which came with asparagus were both excellent entrees. The 2008 North Coast California, B.R. Cohn Cabernet Sauvignon paired perfectly with our dinners. A Sorbet Trio with berries and crème fraiche dessert was the perfect finish to an excellent dinner. Bentley’s Restaurant on 27 with their talented Chef Martin Heller has created cuisine which does live up to the fabulous views!
