BAR ONE is now open at 800° Woodfired Kitchen in Phillips Place in Charlotte.

Here’s a Phillips Place update to look forward to: 800° Woodfired Kitchen is now set to open its first North Carolina location with a soft opening July 7, 2021, and reservations on OpenTable will start that day. The formal opening date for the restaurant with a wood-fired oven will be July 14. But you can get a sneak peak of the place at BAR ONE, which is now open.

ABOUT THE FOOD: The restaurant, founded in 2011 by chef Anthony Carron, offers a clean-eating promise, which includes careful sourcing of local and organic ingredients and cooking only with extra virgin olive oil. It has scratch-made dough, fresh produce and artisan-quality meats and cheeses. It serves salads, bowls, sandwiches and pizza. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options are included on its menu. A catering menu will also be available.

The restaurant will feature indoor and outdoor patio seating and a full bar.

ABOUT THE BAR: BAR ONE, located at the back of the restaurant, has its own entrance for late-night dining or cocktails. It features mahogany and leather booths and will be designed to have an exclusive but casual ambiance.

800° has 15 locations around the world. This will be its fourth East Coast location, adding to two in Florida and one in New York. Local entrepreneurs Steven Jensen, an entertainment industry veteran, and Kyle O’Brien, an expert in the food and beverage industry, are bringing the restaurant to SouthPark.

“Having recently transplanted to Charlotte from Los Angeles, and having already been a fan of 800° Woodfired Kitchen, this was a no-brainer for me,” Jensen told CharlotteFive in November. “The amount of support we’ve received thus far has been amazing, and we’re already looking for our second and third locations in Charlotte.”

Phillips Place is owned by Lincoln Harris.
