Iris offers a delightful dining experience nestled in the North Carolina Museum of Art! The cosy and swanky atmosphere sets the perfect backdrop for a lovely meal.

I highly recommend the caramel-topped bourbon custard for dessert - it’s a divine treat! 🥄 The service was personable, and reserving a table was a smooth process.

After your meal, take a leisurely stroll through the museum grounds. It’s a fantastic way to wrap up your visit! Overall, a great spot for a special occasion or a casual lunch. 🌟
