Bill Gallagher and I just had one of the best meals we’ve had in a long time at Fin & Fino. 🍷🍽️
This location has apparently been cursed for decades. Since I moved to Charlotte, I’ve eaten at restaurant after restaurant behind these doors, full of hope… and then quietly they disappear. I remember coming to this space the first weekend I moved here for the legendary “Takeover Fridays.”
Well, I think someone finally broke the curse.
Fin & Fino is thriving. Incredible food, outstanding service, and a restaurant that reminds you why dining out can still be an event.
Here’s hoping they stay for a very, very long time…
because I’d hate to have to train another bartender how to make my special martini.
