Best Historic Restaurants in Blakeney

Wow! This place exceeded our high expectations. The ambiance was low key and classy. Our waiter Andrew was superb drinks were great. We split lobster cakes I had the Elk chops and wife had the salmon and both were done to perfection. Topped it off with peanut butter dessert that I can’t even describe but will have again. Serious 5 Stars!

I went for Valentine's Day prix fix dinner with my hubs. The dining room is just off the lobby of the lovely hotel and has a nice setting with artwork with scenes of NC . It's a small dining room, holding probably a total of 50 guests or less. The servers were competent and professional. The cocktail menu was pleasant, but thedrinks took longer than should have to arrive. Our Caesar Salads were fresh with a yummy dressing. We both had the Ribeye steak with asparagus and loaded mashed potatoes. The sides were delicious; the steak had a nice flavor and cooked to our liking, but quality of the steak was low with much grizzle and fat. The highlight of the meal was dessert, recommended by our waiter. A cherry and biscuit shortcake with a chocolate drizzle. It was like the most delicious cherry pie but layered with the most delicious biscuits. I would go back just for this. Overall, a good evening.

Bernardin’s is my favorite restaurant in Charlotte. We always start with Brussels sprouts and truffle fries for appetizers. My husband likes the sidecar, and I got the soixante-quince this time. All their drinks are good. I tend to get the lobster ravioli, but the tuna and salmon are also great for me. My husband gets a ribeye, add lobster tail, mashed potatoes and spinach. I added some of his spinach to my pasta and it’s always perfect!

We arrived a little early to have a cocktail at the bar. Service was classy! We seated on time and enjoyed appertizers to share. We were not rushed. We did order main meals and a couple sides (beets and Brussels). The main meals were fantastic, however the sides never came. The waitress was lovely and kept our drinks full. Food and atmosphere was great. We’ll be back again.

This was our first time dining here, and it did not disappoint! Our waiter was super friendly, the chef came out multiple times to check in with us, and the food was fantastic. We happened to go on a night when it wasn't busy at all, so the ambiance was great too. We would definitely go again
