| - Blindfold me, put me on a plane, drive me around until I have no idea where I am... then take me to Good Food on Montford and I would guess that I'm in a real foodie city, like NYC, San Fran or maybe Portland. That's right, this place stands out among the crowded streets of CLT filled with corporate restaurant groups and chains.
What I like most is they are not afraid to be original with both the menu and the wine list... this is an independent restaurant at its best. Been here 3 times and will be going back at least once a month or so. I'd go back more often but I do like to torture myself by trying other sub-par places around town in the hopes that I'll come across a gem like this one.
First time I went, loved everything on the menu. Each dish was just enough to give me a good taste, and each truly delivered. Second time I brought a group of 6... I had to tell my friends "trust me" after one friend went to the website and was like "dude where's my meat+2 entree" and while I can't claim to have transformed them all into foodies (yet), everyone loved it. Third time was a charm - yep, consistency was there, food quality - check, wine list - check, service - check, 5 stars - check.
I have a few more restaurants that I have not been to until my CLT tour is complete, but I imagine there will be no more than 5 or 6 places that get 5 stars. I have high expectations because I don't think we should pay so much to dine out just to be underwhelmed. Good Food will over deliver on all aspects. Go there, now!
