| - By far my favorite restaurant in Charlotte. Its not a weekly stop because frankly I need a place to live and a car to drive (and eating here all the time would make me poor) so its reserved for special occasions, or a once every few months becasue I miss it so much and have to go back, type of place.
The menu changes seasonally, except for some standards like the mussels and the roast chicken entree. I like that it changes except for when I've had something so delicious I want it the next time I go and its gone =(
Favorites have been the monkfish with lobster tempura and bok choy, a mixed greens salad with sweet potato fries, the pea soup, the corn soup, the lemon mascarpone cake (I dream about this), striped bass, flounder, the grouper with "clam chowder," the cosmos, I swear they make them the best I've ever had. I could go on and on but I honestly can't remember every dish I've ever had what I do know is not once have I left and felt like my meal was medicore.
Service is professional but also not pretentious. I love when a server jokes around with the table but is not so intrusive that they act like we're all new BFF's. And that is exactly how they deliver at Barrington's.
Yes its small and yes its pricey but like I said its not a daily/weekly type place to eat out at. I went in May and June and now that I am talking about it my stomach started growling and I want to go now!!
