The Restaurant
Herons, the signature restaurant of The Umstead Hotel and Spa near Raleigh-Durham, offers an extraordinary culinary journey deeply rooted in art, nature, and wellness. The intimate dining room, seating 98 guests, features a full-view kitchen, original artwork, and floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the wooded grounds. Executive chef Steven Devereaux Greene masterfully redefines American cuisine, showcasing local, seasonal ingredients with precise technique. The restaurant offers a four-course prix fixe tasting menu, drawing inspiration from The Umstead's culinary farm. While Herons does not currently hold any Michelin stars, it has received a Forbes Five-Star rating and is acclaimed as one of the best restaurants in the Raleigh area. The passion for locally grown produce and farm-fresh ingredients is evident in the often-flawless fare, promising fresh flavors and eye-catching presentations.
