    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

    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.

    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!!!

    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!

    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!

    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.

    (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.

    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.

    Went on a Monday night for Martini Mondays and had an amazing customer service experience with Millie. She was friendly and extremely knowledgeable. Food was amazing as well as the ambiance.

    Spicy Crab Rangoons and Lychee Martini.
    Sammie S.

    I'm screaming to you that this place has THE BEST CRAB RANGOONS IN CLT! They have amazing specials from 4-7 everyday that are sooo worth it. Sake crafts, and martinis are boozy and fresh which is my personal fav. The servers here are cool and fun. Prompt with food delivery. The eye catcher is this beautiful wooden art piece that sprouts from the middle of the room (bar). Very upscale feeling. Going outside of the special hours it can be pricey. However the dishes are of high quality and menu offers a variety.

    Dumplings

    Kicking off the first of a series of birthday dinners, I met up with friends at CO. First things first, there was no heat as of Dec.4th. Initially we thought the restaurant was just cold, but the waitress confirmed the heat was OUT. No apology. No discount. Not cool, cold. After being told it was my birthday, the waitress didn't so much as acknowledge this in any way. Not even a "Happy Birthday". Those are my gripes. Food was great. They have very reasonable specials, drinks all day and food 4pm-7pm. I had beef dumplings, which were yummy, but could've been warmer. What was warm that I appreciated was my sushi. I took a chance and chose the one with sweet potato, not knowing how it would be incorporated. However, it was a puree. Very good. Everyone else enjoyed their meal and overall had a good time sans the temperature.

    Interesting interior at Co.

    A nice restaurant, had the caramel pork Banh Mi, pretty good. The filling was good, had a bit of spice, the bread was really good too. The filling could have been just a bit better, a daikon-carrot slaw would have been a bit crunchier. The service was good, everything is done with QR codes although they will offer a paper menu on request. The bill also comes on a QR code, super convenient. The interior is very nice, interesting design. 4.5 stars overall

The restaurant is stylish, modern, and surprisingly chic , with a great location that makes it easy to add to an evening out. As first-time guests, we especially appreciated our server, who patiently walked us through the process and made sure there were no surprises. The explanation about the charge for uneaten all-you-can-eat sushi that guests want to take home was particularly helpful. Knowing the rules upfront makes all the difference and sets the right expectations from the start. The food was excellent. We worked our way through several rolls , sampled dumplings , and didn't find a miss among them. My Lycheetini was delicious, and after tasting a couple of sakes , I ended up buying a bottle to take home. Zero regrets there. Parking requires a little planning, with a paid lot nearby unless you're fortunate enough to snag a street spot right in front. Overall, I'd happily return and enjoy the entire experience all over again.

Great location in south end near the light rail. We had a reservation for 6:30 and were seated promptly. The restaurant is gorgeous! I was in amazement walking to my seat. The host was about to sit us at a table, but we requested a booth and were accommodated. Our server was very nice and thoroughly explained the menu. We started off with the empanadas and I ordered my first virgin "pinny yolada" :). The empanadas were mind blowing! They were nice and hot, flavorful, and absolutely a delight! We were so impressed, we decided to order the double fried wings afterwards. The wings were good and had an interested flavor with the tamarind. After the wonderful appetizers, it was time for the entrees. I ordered the short rib yuca gnocchi and my friend the arroz con pollo. On paper the gnocchi sounded sublime, but in actuality it was lacking a lot. The entire dish lacked so much flavor, even with hot sauce, additional salt, and lime it tasted bland. I was very disappointed. The empanadas and service were a saving grace, I ordered two orders of empanadas to go for my family. However they were so expensive. I paid $14 for 3. Even though I loved the empanadas, I probably would not be back.

No restaurant serving raw fish should ever have issues like that. The environment felt dirty, uncomfortable, and poorly managed. I genuinely do not understand the hype around this place. Between the awful attitude from the owner and the unsanitary conditions, I would never recommend anyone eat here. Charlotte has WAY too many amazing sushi and ramen spots to waste your money at a place that treats customers badly and can't even keep the restaurant clean. Save yourself the disappointment and go somewhere else.
