131 Main Coming to North Hills East

131Main TBJ is reporting the first release of tenant names for the North Hills East project. Huntersville (Charlotte)-based 131 Main will open its fourth restaurant, this time in the flagship building of North Hills East, the Captrust Tower. The other tenants announced are Bruegger’s Bagel Bakery, Henry’s Fine Italian Gelato, CoolSweats (a boutique), Lee Spa Nails, and Salon Blu. No official word on the previously reported Village Tavern or Summerfield Suites that were rumored to be going into the new complex.

This makes for an interesting little swap. While the 3-store group running 131 will put a foot in the Raleigh waters, the 4-store Urban Food Group (Frazier’s, Porter’s, Vivace, Coquette) is 4 months away from putting their foot in the Charlotte waters. Charlotte will get their own Vivace in the new Metropolitan development.

    As someone who used to live right across the street from 131 Main in Charlotte before moving to Raleigh, let me offer some advice to the Raleigh crew — don’t bother. Food is OK and service is very good, but for what they charge per plate, food quality really needs to be higher. It’s an OK place if you, say, live across the street, but otherwise I’d skip this one.

    I enjoy dining at Vivace trattoria in Metropolitan, Charlotte.

    Great food, warm and cozy atmosphere, terrific wine list and awesome customer service.
