I have enjoyed several meals at Heirloom and waited until now to review.  The food is exquisite and the service is attentive.  The bar, constructed of old windows, vintage photographs and artifacts, begs to tell stories, whether you know them or make up your own.  With the best of fresh-from-the-farm ingredients, prepared by a chef who is inventive and talented, Heirloom is a culinary experience unlike any other in Charlotte.  Or maybe in NC.  Focusing on what is best about the state's harvests, I really felt like I was eating NC \"state on a plate\" with red drum (didn't know that was a state fish), beef heart (wouldn't have been my first choice, but delicious and glad I tried it) and oysters that made me so happy I almost cried.  The dessert, a corn cake with local honey and corn shoots that were equally sugar-sweet, was phenomenal.  Heirloom is a welcome addition to Charlotte's food scene and I hope it is a sign of good things to come.\nI'll be back . . .
