I love this place....and I love that it's in K-town. You see, Kannapolis is one of my least favorite cities and has never been know as a culinary destination but Forty Six,....you are a welcomed change.
I had the opportunity to eat here alongside 7 others for an impromptu dinner. Our group consisted of mostly "clean" eaters and one with a penchant for Red meat, 2 vegans and another who loves all things deep fried.
The special for the night was a grilled Mahi Mahi atop a Pineapple couscous and some sort of rice ( I forget). I ordered the Garlic Pork with Collards and brown rice. I highly recommend the Pork. It only had a hint of garlic not to overwhelm the Pork's succulent taste. It was a very large piece of meat and I struggled to finish my meal because of it....(no empty plate left behind for me). The Collards were not bathed in a vinegar dressing like most Southern restaurants but rather lightly dressed. It was refreshing to eat them like this. There's not much to say about the rice, it was cooked well. Next time, I will ask to substitute the rice with a potato of some sort because I feel that Pork and Potatoes go together.
The Mahi Mahi was grilled to perfection and the Pineapple couscous was a great compliment.
I overheard the Filet Mignon was very juicy and cooked just right as well as the Eggplant Moussaka. One of the diners asked the waitress if the Vegetarian dish she ordered could be prepared Vegan and the waitress assured her that it was no issue. She then reported back after speaking with Chef to give her an update on the time frame to do this but again assured her that it would be no issue.
This level of service is very much appreciated in this town.
For dessert, I ordered the NY Cheesecake and tasted the Tres Leches. The Cheesecake was......cheesecake. Not amazing but not bad, just good. The Tres Leches on the other hand was amazing! I'm used to the cakes from the Pasteleria down the street but this was way more refined that those cakes. It was decadently simple and I highly recommend it.
The decor is very swanky, especially for the area. Great place for a date or special occasion.
