Deviled eggs gain a crisp topping of Nashville-hot oysters, while the crab dip adds shrimp and a blend of smoked Gouda, fontina and cheddar. Shrimp and grits brings blackened seafood together with andouille and bacon. These Southern references sit alongside lamb meatballs in arrabbiata sauce and truffle-filled arancini, giving a table several directions to explore.
Lunch sandwiches are moderately priced, including a Monte Cristo on sourdough and a fried chicken club served on a croissant roll. Dinner moves into a higher range with a pork chop over mushroom risotto and filet with cowboy butter. Weekend brunch adds challah French toast with berry compote and crab cake Benedict.
The Empress of Tryon combines gin, elderflower, lemon and peach with bubbles; the CLT Stinger adds jalapeño and a Tajín rim to tequila and cucumber. Birdsong, Legion, NoDa and other local breweries appear on the draft list. The North Tryon address accepts reservations, but drivers should budget for parking separately because the restaurant does not validate tickets.
