It's bittersweet to write this, as today is the day Panzu closes its doors. Panzu has been a…read morefantastic brewery for the two+ years I've been coming here. The beer selection has been of quality, with fun ties to the ownership's Dominican heritage all over the place. They've served Dominican fare as well, which has always been tasty and relatively well priced for brewery food. This is a small joint in Mint Hill, with a front patio that's twice the size of the indoor space. Or maybe it just feels that way because I never sit anywhere but on that front patio. But the best thing about Panzu has always been the people. The Panzu family cares, and you feel that constantly. They truly filled a void that was much needed, and I'm incredibly sad that they will not be around past today. Still, I've made incredible memories at Panzu, and those are the thing I'm most excited to take away from it all. Deseándoles salud y éxito en la próxima etapa a la familia Panzu. Mil gracias por brindarnos un lugar especial y distinto. Suerte a todos!

And I get a plate for my coworker too! Wait what had me!!!! Was my first bite of the black beans and rice. It took me back to the islands when a friend cooked me her stewed flank steak with black beans and rice. So I've been coming back ever since. Sorry this is long!

When I initially visited (in their first couple of months after opening) I was super in love with this place. Unfortunately every experience after that has been super inconsistent. I've ordered their seafood sancocho three times and every single time I've gotten a different dish. The last time I ordered it - it was more so vegetables with 2 teaspoons of broth, some rice and old fried yucca. If you look at the photo - I believe you can tell the yucca looks like it'd been in the fridge for days and they just threw it in there for good measure. The waiter didn't smile and generally looked miserable to have to deal with me. I asked for hot sauce that never came. Just overall, really disappointed in my last experience here and unfortunately won't be retuning due to how inconsistent my last few visits have been. You might get something that tastes decent, you might not.
