This uptown Charlotte restaurant has refreshed its interior — and what’s on the menu

204 North Kitchen & Cocktails now has a new menu and a brighter, livelier and more inviting interior.

The uptown Charlotte restaurant has renovated its interior to include fun wallpaper and bright artwork. Finishing touches like brown leather chairs and gold flatware elevate the space. Wood floors and exposed bricks and beams remain, which still honors the building’s original character from the 1920s.
