What is the food presentation like at Herons?

  1. The Umstead Hotel and Spa is known for its inventive art, and Herons — the hotel’s signature restaurant — is known for artful presentation of its food. Each dish at Herons is carefully crafted to make a visual impact, with creative arrangements of colors and textures and dollops and swirls decorating your plate. Luckily the artful additions aren’t so gorgeous that you’ll regret digging in — and that’s a good thing. It’s all part of the attention to detail you’ll find at the Five-Star restaurant. Nothing is haphazard, even when it comes to the placement of the fish on your plate.

  2. The food is highly stylized in an artful, modern and minimal presentation. Each dish truly is a work of art.
