Something Classic Halcyon - Charlotte

Everything was delicious. The Duck Confit soup was my favorite, but everything was very well done.

Halcyon never disappoints. The set menu selections were all super delicious; deep flavors; perfect portions. The staff were friendly and they followed CDC guidelines to help all diners feel safe. What a wonderful evening we had. Felt like a little piece of normal. Thank you Halcyon. We can hardly wait until your new adventure opens up. We'll be watching for the announcement. Ron Sherry

I was lucky to visit this restaurant before their farewell. We had an amazing experience and can't wait until they change their concept to come back and visit. The restaurant was beautiful. Located in the mint museum and with just beautiful designed and decorated. We came during Covid times and they had these cute little pods that kept you warm and in a little bumble to keep the germs away! These were heated and you could see the Charlotte skyline. We had a tasting menu that was absolutely amazing. It was so hard to pick a favorite, but I have to say I would love to go back and have the duck soup. The flavor and taste was out of this world. The drinks and service was outstanding. If you are able to book a slot before they close to revamp their concept I would totally recommend it! I can't wait to come back for more!

First time there for 5 course dinner. Too bad it's closing down. Food was bomb. Drink pairings were bomb. Ambience with greenhouses due to covid was a nice touch. I will definitely be making a reservation at the new restaurant they'll be setting up.

I don't know why I've never been here but I'm so glad I finally did. We came for our three year anniversary and everything about the night was amazing. This was some of the best food I've had and I'm sad they'll be closed til Valentine's Day but I promise I'll be back sooner than later. So the restaurant is located at the Mint Musuem on the 1st floor above the ground level. We were able to be seated outside on their patio in a little insulated hut which had a heater and still a little chilly but had such an awesome view of the Christmas lights outside. We started the night with some drinks and after being seated, the food was awesome from the get go. We had a roasted kale salad to start which was light and refreshing. The duck soup came out next and I couldn't stop myself from devouring the bowl. Next was their seared sea bass and it was nice, flakey and super flavorful. Now I could feel myself getting a little full but when the short rib came out, you get this wonderful smell and I took a bite. I was in absolute heaven. My stomach gained a whole new life. Lastly, finished with dessert and I always same room there. The Chocolate Pot de Creme which was a perfect blend of chocolate, hazelnuts and creme. This meal was phenomenal from start to finish and I want to say all of the staff for the evening were friendly and just overall fantastic. The ambience, safety protocols and everything else about this evening was perfect. I know you're changing it up but please make sure the food stays this good!
