About Chef Sam Hart

Chef Sam Hart is a Charlotte native who just moved back from a stint in Chicago where he spent time at Michelin establishments like Alinea. He opened Counter- in Wesley Heights in September 2020 after 4+ years of planning.

Chef Sam calls it a “story-driven” restaurant that uses all the senses to tap into people’s imaginations and nostalgia with every bite. He is classically French trained but you’ll see strong influences of Sichuan, Japanese and molecular gastronomy with his cuisine.
