Beaudevin

Really great for airport food. I absolutely loved their shrimp cocktail. I was also a big fan of the bellini that I got there. Would definitely be my choice of somewhere to eat while at the Charlotte airport.

This is a great place if you want to feel like you are not actually dining in an airport. Good food, service, bar and atmosphere. I had lunch here and enjoyed the Farmer’s Salad with smoked salmon. The salad; mixed field greens, shaved beets, roasted pumpkin seeds, goat cheese with sherry vinaigrette. I would definitely recommend this restaurant.

Had the spinach salad with added steak. Delicious. Not cheap, but not bad for the airport. Really tasty. Will be back. Service excellent. Nice ambiance. Recommended.

Wine fan? In the airport too early in order to avoid the long lines at airport security? Hungry?
This is your place. For an airport wine bar, the selection is good. The menu sandwich selections are not bad. The service is attentive, and they are good providers. Try the flatbread pizza.
Enjoy!

A nice escape in the Charlotte Airport. Tucked away behind the center court bar, this little gem is quiet and serene providing a nice break from the hustle and bustle of the airport. It’s not cheap, but I enjoyed the meal.
Service was efficient, but not overly attentive. It’s obvious they are more attuned to travelers rushing for a flight than those wishing to linger.
I ordered the cheese plate and Farmer’s Salad. The salad was wonderful; field greens with pumpkin seeds, shredded beets and goat cheese. I would have like bigger chunks of beet as the shreds didn’t impart that great beer flavor. There was a nice balance of goat cheese on the salad. Topped with a vinaigrette it was a nice overall salad.
The cheese plate was also good. 3 cheeses including a nice Brie and blue. Also on the plate Marconna almonds, dried fruit and apricot jam. My only complaint — I would have liked some crackers or more bread. I ran out of bread before I ran out of cheese and the server was no where to be found to see if I could get more
Overall, a nice respite on amid the chaos and a nice surprise.

Beaudevin is a nice spot in the Charlotte airport to grab a glass of wine and relax. They offer wine by the taste (3 oz), by the glass (6oz), and large glass (9 oz) as well as wine flights. Prices aren’t cheap, but can you really put a price on peace and quiet at the airport?
My husband and I each ordered a glass of wine and split the large charcuterie plate. The charcuterie was good and the wine was excellent. The restaurant also has sandwiches and dinner entrees if you are seeking something heartier than a snack.
Will definitely stop here again if I have a layover in Charlotte.

Oh my goodness, the bar has been set for airport terminal dining and I mean dining not just eating. This place has it all: good food, ambience, and good service.
First of all, the décor is upscale and inviting. With wine being a focus of this establishment, the wine bottles dominate the walls, very nice.
The menu is way upscale from the norm. My Greek wedge salad had a beautiful presentation with three wedges along a long rectangular plate. It was topped with a lemon vinaigrette, feta, red quinuoa (sp), and herbs. It was delicious and filling. I should not have ordered the turkey rueben. It was not great and the salad had filled me.
They serve wine by the fluid ounce, brilliant. You can order a little or a lot. My NC Sauvignon (sp) was crisp and refreshing.
My server was friendly and attentive. This is a great place to relax in the middle of a long trip. It is pricier than the normal airport fare, but I found it worthwhile.
BTW, wouldn’t it be great if Unilocal had a spell checker that was food terminology friendly?

Really nice, didn’t even feel like we were in an airport, for just a little bit! It sets back from then main walk, so you don’t see everyone rushing by. Just had a Ruben sandwich, but was very good.

I had the worst turkey Reuben of my life at Beaudevin. The «turkey» was slimy and shredded and could have come out of a can. The sauerkraut and thousand island dressing were so sparse I could barely detect their presence. This was a Reuben by chef boyardee. This was a Reuben so bad I wish I could have ritually sacrificed it in a fiery pit. This wasn’t a Reuben, it was an impostor, a flavorless Reuben shaped lump masquerading as the sandwich we all know and love so much.
The «mini wedge salad» was a bunch of wet iceberg lettuce with some chopped up tomatoes and cucumbers. Nothing that resembled dressing was present.
Service was quick and waiter was polite. If you’re just getting a drink, this place is fine. But get a pretzel at Auntie Anne’s next door if you’re hungry. Or get a Whopper at BK – at least you know what you’re getting and it doesn’t cost $ 20.

The food was great and it was a nice respite from the crowds and craziness of traveling.
READ THE MENU CAREFULLY. I ordered a glass of wine at $ 13. Spendy, but acceptable if you consider I’m paying airport captive audience upcharge so whatever.
Come to find when I get the bill that glass of wine actually cost $ 26. Oh really? What I hadn’t noticed was that the $ 13 option was for a 3oz glass of wine.
On what F#$*#&$ planet is a glass of wine 3 ounces? You people should be ashamed for tricking tired customers like that. Shame on you! And don’t even try to tell me that it wasn’t deliberate because of course it is. If you want to pretend that this is something cute and special you do, then MAKE IT CLEAR UPFRONT TO EVERY CUSTOMER EVERY TIME.
What would have otherwise been a splendid dinner by myself left me very upset and feeling cheated and taken advantage of. Lucky for you that you rely on a steady stream of travelers so you don’t have be decent people to get repeat business to stay open.
I also waited for about 5 minutes to be seated and was not acknowledged once. It was not busy at all, just understaffed. When no hostess came, I sat at the bar. I saw no fewer than five customers come in, look at the sandwich case, wait for service, and leave having never been acknowledged.
The food itself was great. The waitstaff that were there were pretty pleasant, if few in number.

Nice, quiet atmosphere, great wine list and good food. It can be tempting to get horrible fast food at an airport, especially since healthy options are rare. Beaudevin fills that void and makes you feel like you’re not really at the airport at all.
They offer many small plates, which is nice because I don’t want anything too heavy before a flight. I tried the Small Cheese Plate (4 cheeses, dried fruit and nuts, fruit jam, baguette), and it was a great complement to the local NC wine I was drinking. I also got the Hummus with Roasted Red Pepper, which came with a tomato/​cucumber/​olive side salad and pita. Also a great choice.
I would definitely come back if I’m at CLT again.

I made sure to have about an hour or so to get to my next flight at Charlotte, but due to the flooding in the area, my plane was delayed for four hours D: When we touched ground, I found this nice little place and decided to get a couple drinks.
They have a fantastic wine selection, with a lot of local North Carolina wines that will be hard to find anywhere else. The prices can be a little steep, but for an airport, it’s not all that bad. They also have a full bar, with a decent selection to make you most of the cocktails that you would want. I ordered an old fashioned the «old fashioned» way, not the modern interpretation or the 1950’s style. Just sugar, angostura bitters, rye, with a lemon and orange peel. The bartender made kind of an inbetween, with a muddled orange slice. Although it wasn’t what I ordered exactly, it still tasted very good.
I ordered a sidecar next, and the bartender didn’t know how to make it. I gave her my recipe, but she forgot to shake it D: However, she quickly fixed it and made me a new drink.
Although they have a full bar, their knowledge of cocktails is a bit lacking. However, they make that up with a great knowledge of wine and awesome service. I got one of their malbec’s and started talking about wine with them and it was really great to hear their knowledge about some of the local vineyards. I only wish that they carried some wines with some more weight and muscle behind them like a nice bottle of Australian Shiraz.
If you are unfortunate to have a sinfully long delay or worse, have your flight cancelled, you can w (h)ine about it with other like minded people at Beaudevin with some awesome drinks and even better service. If I’m ever stranded at Charlotte, at least I have a great place to hang out.

This is a newer place in the Charlotte airport. New to me, anyway. Perfect place to stop in for a glass of wine, and try something new without making an investment in the whole bottle. They have flights as well. Get it? Flights. In the airport.
Anyway, very good service on this trip — I sat at the bar and was greeted immediately by a friendly, knowledgeable bartender. But not so friendly as to be intrusive. He did a perfect job of reading his guests, as I noticed that he engaged more with folks who wanted that. Most of us were just engrossed in our phones, lol. So shocking for a Unilocaler.

This is the best airport restaurant I’ve ever been to. The food, service and ambience allow you to forget where you are, which when in an airport during the holidays, is nothing short of a miracle.
I had fruit with greek yogurt and granola. It is served deconstructed and everything was fresh and in season. It was actually a healthy breakfast! With flavor! In an airport! I also ordered a side of bacon which was clearly made to order; it was hot, crisp yet tender and melted in my mouth. The coffee is excellent too, they brew it by the cup so your refills are always fresh.
My server was friendly and knowledgeable. The next time I am at CLT I will definitely stop here.

4 stars for the quality and ambiance
This is a really nice sanctuary for an airport. Thankfully it wasn’t too dark otherwise I might have fallen asleep at the bar. Quiet, reserved, classy is how I’d describe this place — especially for an airport restaurant. I had the Scottish Smoked Sandwich and it was great. The bread was made fresh that day and they were still slicing it (see pict). The salad was weak but that’s ok as the sandwich made up for it. Not a bunch of beer on tap but they focus on wine hence, the name. Cheapest red wine for a 9oz pour was $ 10 though that’s probably not bad. Jimmy the bartender was really friendly and offered me a sample of the chicken salad. I’m fairly particular about chicken salad as I can’t stand heavy mayo based foods such as macaroni salad, smoked fish spread, etc. With that being said, I was quite pleased when I tasted it. The crunchy pecans, ripe grapes, and smoked paprika was a great combination. I’d put this place at 5 stars (for airport fare) if the prices were a little better.

Like many reviewers, only had the pleasure of eating here once on a layover. Next CLT layover, I’ll return.
Definitely non-​airport feel once inside which was very welcome. The staff was extremely upbeat and although service wasn’t exactly quick. I was in and out in 45 minutes for lunch.
I had the farmer’s salad with grilled chicken. Had I only ordered this (sans wine), the total would have been similar to some other restaurant offering much less healthy and fresh items. The salad was quite large and had really unique and delicious flavors (those shaved beets are mmmmmm and the cheese is oh so creamy). It is pretty loaded with dressing, though, so for my preference, I wished I had ordered it on the side.

If you are at CLT and want food that isn’t «fast food», I guess this would be it. In the strip of restaurants at the airport, Beaudevin is definitely more of a sit-​down type and slightly upscale.
Went for breakfast… the breakfast menu is pretty small. I had the bagel with salmon lox, and it was pretty good. This place is going to cost you a bit more than most of the other food around, but it gives you a way to escape from the busy areas of the airport.

What a delightful surprise in an airport! The food was delicious! The atmosphere, located in the middle of the atrium was decidedly un-​airportish; urban sophisticated, fresh, and calm.
I ordered the charcuterie salad– I thought the pickled green beans might be odd, but they were fantastic and worked with the rest of the salad perfectly. I also ordered the citrus crab cocktail which was an extremely large portion of crab meat and delicious!
Then I got the desert flight and OMG. No really, at one point I literally exclaimed «oh my God!» It was so good. What an unexpectedly fantastic meal!
Staff was perfect– friendly, efficient, and only around when you needed them.
I was able to charge my phone and pass a very pleasant 2 hour lay over. The only place I’d eat at this airport!

Fantastic wine list, even by the glass! And a classy menu, too.
I was travelling alone, and was able to score a small table next to a wall outlet so I could charge my laptop while I enjoyed a couple of glasses during my long layover.
My filet was cooked to a perfect medium rare, and I was able to order a $ 37 GLASS of amazing pinot.
The service was attentive and prompt — which is always appreciated in an airport, when people are running tight schedules.
I’ll definitely return during every layover I have in CLT!

REALLY did not expect to find a place this nice and relaxing in an airport of all places. But first off, let me say that I’ve been in some nice European airports and Charlotte is putting them to shame.
Wandered in here to a beautiful little restaurant softly lit, dabbled with plants that has an amazing array of wine to choose from. Sat in the mock ‘al fresco’ area where a piano player plays right by the entrance on the concourse. They also serve several local North Carolina wines if you are so inclined to try. Ceviche, fancy paninis, cheese platters, and melon wrapped in prosciutto are all perfect menu accompaniments. Little on the pricey side, but infinitely better than lurking at the Starbucks. If you have a layover, Beaudevin is absolutely the best spot in CTL to wait it out.
