Top line: new concept, with a great chef, was excited to try, but overall, disappointed.
Went to the Asbury with high expectations. Harvest Moon (old concept that was in the same space), was a gem of Charlotte, and having the old McNinch House (easily the best restaurant in Charlotte) chef could only elevate the quality of this place.
Asbury focuses heavily on farm-to-table and cooking seasonal foods, both which are concept that I fully support.
Went to Asbury for dinner, and I am sad to report that it was disappointing. Food was lacking in flavor, especially the pork belly which was poorly seasoned. Service seemed to be confused, delivered the wrong meal to one of our guests/courses were timed poorly.
Bottom line: place was a miss on both food and service and I would not recommend this place.
