Mariposa at The Mint

Mariposa at The Mint Spanish for butterfly, Mariposa signifies change, evolution and growth. Our former restaurant Halcyon is now reborn as a revolutionary new dining experience.

We bring the world to your table. Join us in Uptown Charlotte for a unique fine dining experience. Mariposa is located in The Mint Museum Uptown in the heart of Uptown Charlotte and explores international cuisines in a comfortable, artistic setting. Mariposa embraces community, and how sharing a meal, a drink, and a good conversation brings people together across countless cultures. Join us on Sundays for jazz brunch featuring local live jazz from 12:00 - 3:00 pm and $1.00 bloody marys.

Why people come 🤝 Why people stay.

Come for the food. Stay for the people.

The meals might bring you through our doors, but it’s the smiles, conversations, and familiar faces that keep you coming back. Around here, you’re more than just a table, you’re part of the family.
