One of 2015’s most anticipated restaurant openings dropped without much ado. Upton 43 opened suddenly for dinner yesterday in Linden Hills, after nearly a year of planning and construction. The restaurant is chef Erick Harcey’s (Victory 44) French-infused nod to his grandmother’s Swedish cooking.

Among the few details to emerge so far, the hours will be 5pm–11pm going forward.

Let’s go to the ‘grams:

The tart, apple, onion, and vasterbotten from tonight’s opening at @upton43! #upton43 #tart #apple #onion #vasterbotten #dinner #opening #Swedish
