    Delicious blossom roll. Loved the kimchi sauce. Kids chicken strip meal was a good portion. Tons of parking in the plaza!

    Sunset Crab Roll

    The weekly specials are a hit. HH 4-7 pm with drink specials daily including sushi specials 1/2 off on T/Th. Thats a great weekday experience. I was forewarned that the wagyu was removed so I went with my classic, a Sunset Roll. It was mostly cream cheese but my Lychee Tini was hit'n. I also indulged in the Katsu and Rangoon. I wanted a robust experience. To be honest this location isn't as good as Waverly. However, I do feel that its a great location with outside seating, too. I was pleasantly surprised as the space nestled in the Nook of the buildings. Try their udon. I got it too go and it was delicious. Great flavor!

    The move is to come on Tuesday or Thursday from 4-7pm for their half off sushi rolls. Good sushi, nice ambiance, and great service.. we will be back!

    Malaysian Chili Wings
    Henry L.

    First time trying this place. Wings were dry which was a bummer. Vietnamese ramen came out and it was missing the main protein: pork belly. Pork belly tasted good though. I added shrimp for $5. They were tiny shrimps. Laksa was okay. Food overall was expensive. Service could be better. Long wait to order and for the food to come out. It wasn't busy as this was around 7:30 pm on a Wednesday night. Ambiance is okay. Not sure if I will go back here after this experience.

    Curry Laksa w/ Chicken & Shrimp
    Rose E.

    I've had some mixed experiences here in the past...but I remember not quite loving the experience here last time. Still, I decided to give it another try. Well, immediately, I remembered why I didn't quite love this place. Just like last time, the place was literally freezing-cold. As much as I love A/C, this place goes over-the-top with the cooling. Then their outlandish price points! For instance, their Crispy Tuna Rice appetizer is priced at nearly 20 bucks. Really??? I've NEVER seen this appetizer priced so high...ANYWHERE...not even the swankiest places in NYC or LA. Then my order...Curry Laksa was 29 bucks, once I added Shrimp. BTW, they add 5 bucks for 4 small shrimps. What a rip-off! I really liked this dish way back...but this time, not so much. The curry broth was weak this time. The broth was much more yellow (versus more orange)...very diluted! While the veggies were fresh in this Laksa dish, they were just not that tasty. In the past, I remember appreciating the freshness of the veggies...but definitely not the variety that is at all appetizing. In short, this was the worst Curry Laksa from this place yet...while the most expensive. At Open Rice, you'll get a MUCH better, richer version of Curry Laksa, complete with fresh, tasty veggies, at fraction of the price! Even YaMe Noodles serves up a better bowl of Curry Laksa. Service was just OK. The place itself is quite fancy with its sprawling roof design...but they ruined the ambiance of the place by putting half the chairs up during dining hours (?!?)! Plus, no overhead music either. Just a ton of cold air and high pricing lol! I'm about done with this place. Their price points are truly ridiculous...especially given their mediocre foods. I could only down half of my Curry Laksa bowl (Just not that good!)...and I left feeling quite ripped off (again)! Think I should know better not to return here again.

    I have consistently received both great service and food since they opened. Never been disappointed or felt gouged or undervalued here. And tonight with friends was as expected. Thanks for years of getting it right! Has my "Give 'em a Whirl" meter smiling every time I am nearby. Go here.

    Pork & Crab Spring Rolls

    This restaurant was so good! The service was incredibly friendly and fast and they even sat us very quickly. The meal was a bit more expensive than we were prepared for but they shared the best nights to go for half priced sushi or small plates so we can come back and enjoy more for less. I definitely think it was worth the splurge and parking is easy in the park road shopping center. Delicious food and great dining experience.

    Blackberry Bourbon Fizz--YUM!!!
    Sabrina C.

    C.O. is a Charlotte classic that can be trusted regardless of any changes to our food scene. I became a fan over 10 years ago and, no matter how much time passes between visits, they never disappoint. Love the Drunken Noodles w/steak--perfectly cooked noodles with just enough spice to keep it interesting. You also can't go wrong with the Malaysian wings or crispy edamame spring rolls--if only this was what it meant to eat our veggies as kids! Of all the cuisine types available in the QC, Asian is where I find us to lack the most. C.O. for the win every time!

    Blossom Roll

    My favorite restaurant in Charlotte. Always delivers. The Blossom Roll was excellent. Justin provided top notch service and made the experience fantastic. Coming back soon.

    We LOVE this place we have been coming here for years. The food is always top notch. And the service is wonderful. The ambiance is so comfortably and cozy. The last time we went our waiter Alston went above and beyond for us. He was great. If you are thinking about trying this place you won't be disappointed. Give it a try.

    Asian crunch salad

    Great food & service. Chill atmosphere and fun happy hour menu. First tried CO in Charleston and was excited to see they expanded to Charlotte. Asian crunch salad is my fav!

    Bar area
    Mike G.

    (CO)LD nights call for CO! However I recommend going during any time of the year! The giant structure from the center of the bar spreading out against the ceiling brings instant vibes. Very cool indoor area and nicely/dimly lit, but also offers outdoor seating tucked in a little alley on the side of the building. Parking is easy as it's in Park Rd Shopping Center. Drinks were great, food was fantastic, and service was great too! When I asked for to-go boxes for leftovers, the waitress brought them to the table but cleared the food and packed it all up in front of me.

    Elderflower lemon tini
    Candice T.

    The food was amazing--no complaints and taste. Service was slow but manageable. The ambience was what you would get on Valentine's Day. I still enjoyed myself even though I had a hair in my drink. Make sure you check your drink before you drink it.

    I highly recommend!!!…read more I love Spice recently I returned and everything was phenomenal! The hosts are so kind and beautiful when walking in, I had a few bar bites and cocktails. Then when my friend arrived, we went to our table which we had a reservation for and ordered food I enjoyed the Sushi and fire shots to celebrate her birthday! They definitely made this special for her. I cannot wait to return! I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.

    Spice easily bridges two different vibes: an upscale, intimate dinner spot at night and a sleek,…read moresunlit brunch on a weekend. We came in for a weekend brunch and were immediately impressed by the experience. Our waiter was super attentive and helped steer us toward some great choices on the menu (you pull it up through a QR code at the table). We ordered the French toast and the Eggs Benedict to split. The French toast was golden with just the right balance of sweetness. The Benedict comes layered with smoked salmon and spinach, and it was so good my friend even ordered a second one to take home! I've actually picked up sushi to-go from here at night in the past, so I already knew the food was reliable, but sitting down during the day let me appreciate how nice the space actually is. At night it has that dim, moody lighting that makes it a great date-night pick, but brunch was relaxed, bright, and didn't feel rushed at all. Definitely a spot I'd come back to whether it's for casual weekend brunch or drinks and sushi on a night out.

    I had a tough time rating Dona's on one hand the apps, service and ambiance were great however on…read morethe other hand I felt the Pho broth lacked flavor and I had to add a lot to it in the way of sauces to make it better. Was back in Charlotte looking for Pho and found Doan's. Was greeted right away with a smile. Ordered pork wontons & shrimp spring rolls. Both looked and tasted great. The Pho on the other hand was just average at best. I could tell the broth was thin as it was almost clear. It was not bad but just lacked flavor.

    I didn't get the pho, but had the grilled chicken over rice. It was just 4 slices of varying cuts…read moreof chicken and the veggies were very few too (please refer to attached photo). The others in the group voiced similar opinions of disappointment with their orders in terms of portion amounts. We are used to ordering Vietnamese and Doan's fell short of expectations for food and taste. Service was so-so. The waitress who took our orders did not seem to understand English so well. And the waiter who served did not know who ordered what. The ambiance was relaxed. Maybe it was the time that we went. Overall this was a disappointment. I will not be planning a return. There are better restaurants serving Vietnamese.
