Barrington's is definitely a one of a kind experience here in Charlotte. Where Charlotte is plagued with high end corporate eateries, this lone restaurant sits tucked away in a small quiet shopping center in South Park, where you wouldn't really know where it is unless you were told about it. Somehow I think that's what the owners wanted and it works!
I've been here twice over the past couple of years and it seems it's where the wealthy and well known of Charlotte choose to dine when they don't want to be seen. From banking executives to local celebrity figures, you can probably count on seeing someone you've seen on TV or in the paper recently. Don't let it fool you its not known as ""see and be seen"" place its more just good eats.
Space is limited here, so better know which day and time you'd like to go and plan ahead. I have been lucky enough to go with some people who are so called ""in"" with the ownership and are regulars, so it was easy to get a table the same evening, but I cannot imagine it's like that too often. With seating inside for probably about 55 people maximum it can get a bit tight, but again well worth it. Inside it seems like a small house almost, I know it's not, but just gives off that feeling.
The food is great, specialties from the chef daily. Very fresh meats and produce are used and you can tell the chef has a well trained staff in the back. The food is on the higher end of the dollar, but in this place, you truly get what you pay for.
Pros: Food, Atmosphere
Cons: Better plan in advance
