| - What a great experience! After a delayed trip on Amtrak, I arrived in Charlotte at 9pm tired, thirsty, and needing food right then. The Cellar at Duckworth's sounded like a great place, but it was even better than I expected.
My partner and I shared a charcuterie plate, the tuna tartare, and a delicious chocolate torte for dessert--all were delicious and very filling. But, the best part of the evening was the beer. The cellar is a beer lover's dream come true--I've said this about a lot of places, but really! This is the one! As we looked over the ipad for a drink (10+ beers on tap in a small room, and even more in bottles) our bartender offered us a tour of their beer cellar, a 55 degree room cooled perfectly to meet the needs of 200+ bottles, many of them rare and vintage.
Charles, their "beer collector", was knowledgeable and excited about our questions, and helped us pick out several bottles that we hadn't tried before.
The cocktails looked fantastic, and I can't wait to go back and try more things (but only during the week...we tried going again on Saturday and the wait was 2 hours).
