    1/2 Wood Fired Chicken Avocado Sandwich
    Latonya S.

    Uptown lunch at Cashew Kid is a must, especially if you hit that 11 AM-3 PM sweet spot for the best specials. Bravo Emily for giving us five-star service; her attention to detail and knowledge of the menu were top-notch. The chicken avocado sandwich paired with the five-cheese cast-iron mac was excellent. Beet lovers will be delighted by the Woodfire Grill beets with whipped feta and mandarin orange. Pro-Tip: Speak with Sasha for more insight on large group events. It's the perfect chill atmosphere for a high-quality city lunch. Follow me for more of my favorite Charlotte finds!

    this place is perfect! Today my aunt and I visited Kid Cashews. She is a charlotte local and has heard of this place and recommended it to me! I was sold after seeing the celiac friendly/safe many items and their health and vegan options! Jeremy was our server for the night who was great. Very helpful when asking about accommodations to the menu or changes to our order. We ordered many shareable plates for the table, there was a special of $7 starters! Our favorites were the chicken skewers, the grilled beets, and the shrimp and polenta! We even got food to go! Can't wait to come back!!!

    I said it six years ago, and I'll say it again -- just go to Kid Cashew. In all the years since my first visit, I've had nothing but good food and good experiences. The food is consistently good and has so many good-for-you options that you can't go wrong, whether you're ordering a wood-fired portobello gyro or the deliciously juicy Big Mac daddy. (Ok, that last one's not good for your health, but it *is* good for your tastebuds.) All hail the wood-fire grill! The patio outside is still a great spot, even in the winter when it's covered. And there is plenty of group seating inside, too. I've used their catering services for work events and have enjoyed introducing so many of my team members to what is *still* one of my favorite spots in Charlotte.

    Overall service was good and location was so popular! I think the burger patties were a little cooked more than my preference so it was a little drier, but the chicken skewers were good. Overall the place seemed like a bustling location with a ton of different food options. They had a great amount of vegan options so great options for various intolerances! The chips were seasoned well and portions were definitely sufficient.

    Brunch on a Sunday! Yum! Kids eat free... 3 options but good portions. Mimosas crafes were only $12. Wow! Food was great. Chicken salad was real pulled chicken and great avocado. Kids French toast was stuffed with strawberry so good! Quinoa stuff avocado was so fresh! Octopus was fantastic!!!! Service was good not great but fine. Got busy so we understood the wait. Took unreasonable long for 1 of the meals to come out, otherwise would have gone 5

    Still 5 star after all these years! Food is consistently excellent- service is fast - and if go between 3-6p Mon- Fri you'll catch their happy hour pricing - all small plate are 7 - today only 55 bucks and that included 3 cocktails Get the LAMB burger Also GET - the grilled octopus the grilled beets the shrimp and polenta the meatballs in a savory rich brown gravy get the hummus - they are all delicious It's a cozy spot with a fairly large patio too! We hit this place up at 2-3 times each month!

    Sauteed Shrimp and Polenta. Delicious!

    Matto was our server and he treated us like royalty. The food was delicious as always. Kid Cashew never disappoints!

    This dining experience was a family event and I must say- it was perfect. I love how eclectic the place is and the staff was friendly (albeit a bit sparse.) The food was affordable and absolutely delicious! I had the lamb burger and we split the Mac n cheese, avocado and one of the popular dips. Everything was so good and I haven't stopped thinking about it. Will def be returning next time I'm in the area.

    Wood Fired Grilled Octopus
    Sam B.

    Sat at the bar for a quick meal here. It was lively, but not too loud. I ordered the octopus, meatballs, and rotisserie chicken. The octopus was flavorful, but a tad bit chewy for my liking. It was not enough to take away from the dish. The meatballs were phenomenal. They were tender, juicy, and the sauce they came in was INSANE. Lastly, the rotisserie chicken was well-seasoned and very moist. My only complaint would be that it's a bit hard to pull apart, but that is to be expected. The service was friendly and attentive, especially for sitting at the bar. I love that they were shirts with "goats" like Ali and Bourdain. Additionally, the prices are extremely reasonable. Definitely want to try more of the menu. Overall 4.4/5

    Burger and spicy seasoned chips
    LaDeanne D.

    It's been a few years since we have been here so we decided to give it another shot. We went for brunch after @frontporchsundays. Between the two of us we had a Bloody Mary, a burger (not the Mac daddy, the one with bacon) and the egg stack . The good: the Bloody Mary had a bit more of a kick to it than my husband would like but he still enjoyed it and was the best thing we ordered. The not so good: The texture on the egg stack was strange and not pleasant at all. I left 2/3 of the little square on my plate untouched and the server didn't even comment or ask about it. The bacon was undercooked and limp but I cut off the fat and ate the bacon and avocado. I would NOT recommend the egg soufflé/stack. Lacking in flavor and the texture was not remotely egg-like. The burger had good flavor but the bun completely fell apart in my husband's hands after the FIRST BITE. He ate it with a fork and left the bun and the chips behind because the chips had a spicy seasoning on them and between that and his drink, it was too much spice. Again, the server takes his plate away with most of the food on the plate still and doesn't say a word. The first visit wasn't especially memorable and this second visit wasn't any better. I wish the business well but it's not the place for us.

    Cilantro Lime Chicken Skewers
    Reana K.

    Where to even begin!? My brother was in between having us eat here and a place across from here called Penguin. I'm really happy we ate at Kid Cashew! From the service to the atmosphere on the patio where we chose to eat, everything was immaculate. Our server told us about a great deal where the tapas are all discounted until 6pm Monday through Friday. We got a bottle of wine for the table and tried a bunch of food to share for the table. I think one of my favorites was the chicken skewers! The chicken literally melted off the skewers and tasted so good with the cilantro lime. The Mac and cheese was to die for too. Can't forget the octopus! It paired well with the couscous and seasoning. If I was around here again in Charlotte, I would definitely come back here and do their tapas again! It was filling, hit the spot, and yummy!

    Bland ass Burger and 5 cheese watery Mac
    Ty C.

    One Star for my server! She was so sweet. I guess when you see a lot of people sitting outside on the patio, that means the weather is really nice but that doesn't mean that the food is any good probably the worst hamburger I've had in Charlotte. No flavor bland ...says asked for medium but is undercooked the mac & cheese is supposed to be a five cheese mac & cheese, but it has onions and leaks!!!??? No No No ...in it some kind of peppers or something also bland no taste but hey, it's only $11.95 lol... won't be back.

    Grilled Pork Chops and Beans, beans on the side
    Jada M.

    I ordered takeout to the office and, unfortunately, the food wasn't very appealing. I ordered the Impossible Gyro, but it appeared to have some type of chicken in it, which was confusing and disappointing since I specifically chose a plant-based option. The meatballs, however, were good and definitely the highlight of the order. My food was ready in a timely manner, which I appreciated. Overall, the quality didn't quite meet my expectations this time. I may give the restaurant another try by dining in, but based on this experience, the food was just okay.

    AVOID THIS LOCATION!…read more My family that resides in Clt started coming to this location because of the proximity to their house, but after this past visit on June 20th, none of us will ever be back again after the absolute awful service! And, as anyone knows, you can have amazing food, but if the people and service are terrible that can ruin any dining experience! We were sat in an almost empty restaurant just after 8pm; the waiter came to take our order and was very engaging initially. We were a party of 6, so we were going to order 4 diff apps prior to the mixed grill which is what we always get. We ordered the hummus, falafel (2 orders because only 6 come per order), baba ganoush, and beef sambousa. We were told they were "out" of the baba ganoush & sambousas cuz they would have to make them and it would take like an hr...this sounded odd cuz umm, don't you make all your food to order?? This immediately put both my stepmom (who is Moroccan) and myself off and we were actually going to leave, but we were introducing my brother's GF to this ethnic food style & him + my dad convinced us to stay, so we just added salad and lentil bean soups). We ordered drinks (the GF & I were the only ones that didn't order sodas; she ordered a pot of Karak tea for her + I to share & I ordered a sparkling water). After 10mins no drinks in sight we were like "ummm?" then at just over 15mins they brought us the apps but no drinks?!? The drinks came separately a few mins later...all except the tea. For $3 on the menu I expected a bottled sparkling water, instead I got flat water from the soda fountain. I told the waiter this and he said he'd try again and if it wasn't "sparkling" then what did I want to drink instead...I said just a filtered water w/lemon. We were missing an order of falafel (were told they only had the one order and would have to wait for the 2nd, so we just canceled it; again whyTF did they not have anything on the menu at 8pm on a Sat!?) and they only brought one basket of pita for the hummus; we asked for a 2nd basket. The lentil soup (my stepmom makes better at home) + salads were mid at best. 20mins later they bring the main course, but we still had not gotten the pot of tea we ordered nor did the guy ever come back w/my "sparkling" or plain water...we'd had enough of this horrible service & I went in search of someone (the place again was empty & I could not find our waiter or anyone anywhere). Finally I see this lady who had attitude (I have a sneaking suspicion she pretended not to understand english when convenient) when I asked WTAF was up w/my water & the tea! Again, another 10mins w/neither showing up at the table...we were also still waiting for the 2nd basket of pita, but it was moot as we'd already begun to eat the main dish...my stepmom went to the lady & spoke to her in arabic and was like "where is her water and where is her tea!?" the lady said she was sorry she didn't know we didn't get them (BS btw) that's when my stepmom asked to speak to the mgr. We also wanted to order Knfa for dessert, so my stepmom told the lady we were ordering 3 now since they were taking forever to get anything to us, and if they didn't bring them when we were done eating, we would not be paying for them. THAT part seemed to get through at least! Halfway (almost an hr at this point) through the meal they finally come w/my water and the pot of Karak tea. At this point we hadn't seen the male waiter who took our order initially; he shows up & is acting huffy (the audacity tbh!) & tries telling me he never said he'd bring a 2nd sparkling or reg water & when both me and my stepmom (cuz she was sitting next to me & heard the exchange called him out) he got all defensive & said "well I guess I misunderstood" so then we are like "why an hr for the tea?" "Wellll, that's how long it takes to make!" I called BS & told him if that was the case he should have told us that expectation when we initially ordered! He then goes "Well I had to go to storage to find it cuz we were out!" K, howTF is that OUR problem!? Just tell us that so we know what to expect!? No apology was made and we were not credited for the tea nor the $3 sparkling water which I never received. Also, received the Knfa (shockingly, right after the meal) but it was served w/o the pistachios it was supposed to come with. When asked for them, we were told they were "out"...because of course they were! Absolutely HORRIBLE staff and service here; the food was good tho, but when u have an experience like that it still leaves a bad taste!

    This is an order at the counter sit wherever kind of casual restaurant and the lively environment…read morereally exemplified how solid this restaurant is for lots of middle eastern people in charlotte. To start, The service was quick and the workers were very kind. I ordered the hummus and pita bread which comes served warm and the hummus is creamy and flavorful with a side of spicy green pepper and mayo which all complimented each other very well. I ordered the half chicken with yellow rice and while the flavor was unique and the rice was wonderful, the chicken was admittedly dry, which was a let down. The lentil soup on the side was creamy and had great flavor. On the flip side, my dad ordered the Greek salad with chicken kebab on top and that chicken was phenomenal with a great char and was super moist- I'll be sure to order this if I want chicken from here again. The salad was a very generous portion and came with loads of chicken, pickles, tomato, feta, olives, and the dressing was simple but paired perfectly- it was basically lemon juice and herbs. I also ordered the coconut-like cake (?) that they had on a side counter by the register where you can take as many slices as you want but I just took a pre portioned serving of 4 pieces. It was a mildly crumbly cake but it was incredibly moist with what I presume is a sweet syrup and coconut flakes on top. It was a great way to finish the meal. Overall, great food and would love to come back and try more menu items

Definitely not shareable and not enough for an entree either. Over all, would want to try this place again but I would hope that they have someone checking temperatures and regulating seasoning to make sure the entrees are better quality next time.

    Get Schnitz-faced!!…read more In Yafo Kitchen has become my go-to spot in Charlotte, largely because of one dish: the schnitzel. If you're a schnitzel fan, stop reading and order it. Two generous pieces arrive shatteringly crisp with a beautifully seasoned panko crust that's never greasy. The chicken stays tender and juicy, and the fresh lemon wedges bring everything to life. It's one of those dishes that keeps pulling me back. My favorite side is the shell macaroni and cheese. Rich, creamy, and unapologetically indulgent. Together, the schnitzel and mac and cheese are comfort food perfection. I also love the self-serve organic Tractor beverages, the open kitchen concept, and how consistently clean the restaurant feels. The team is friendly, the food comes out quickly, and you can watch everything being prepared right in front of you. Parking is easy thanks to the shared shopping center lot, the outdoor patio along East Boulevard is pleasant, and the portions are generous for the price. Clean restaurant. Friendly people. Consistently delicious food. Yafo is one of those places that simply gets it right. Life is too short not to eat well, Charlotte.
