“Easy to access. $$ pricing. Great taste. Fast and Friendly service. Pepsi products Ramen and fresh made to order sushi..“

“Belissima! Vibes and decorè, unmatched! Its sexy, sleak, and a lil sultry. The back lighting at night is gorgeous. It creates a very intimate vibe. The food is small plates so don't belive you're going to feast. My only draw back was flavor. When it said SPICE I was expecting an indulgent amount of SPICE with unique flavor compliments. Being internationally inspired I guess I was reaching. I will say that the food presentation was beautiful.“

“Great sushi options. Ballantine roll was superb, terrific calamari and good selection of cocktails.“

“This place is back! The food and service Was Michelin star quality ! It’s a must try . #yum“

“It is so hard to find a good lunch place nowadays, this was our first time and the first of many for sure!
Walked in the door at 1pm, walked out at 1:30pm.
Excellent food! Service was faster than I’ve seen anywhere! And payment was quick and easy!
Definitely be eating here more!“

“Sharigato is a fun new concept. The atmosphere is very interesting. We went for lunch; I expect dinner would be busier and cozier. The sushi was delightful. I didn’t love the ordering-from-phone concept. We were hungry and had to take time to figure it out, add a CC, etc. and it wasn’t terribly straightforward. Ended up spending about $200 for 3 people for lunch.“

“Great sushi, at a great price. The service was quick, and if you use the parking behind the building be sure to have them validate it. Highly recommend!“

“The only place I get sushi from.“

“View was great. Drinks were ok. They were out of a view items on their drink menu. including beer and cider. Food presentation was good, Serving size is small to average. Food good, but flavor did not match high prices. Items I enjoyed were Salmon, Thai Chili Greenbeans and Strawberry Shortcake.“

“Wide diversity of sushi & appetizers.“

“I was able to reserve a table for a large group and ensure that their food came out fast with the restaurant. They were well prepared and hosted my group of 10 without a problem. It was a nice, quiet and cool place to take a work lunch. The food was delicious with nice portion sizes. Every dish looked great. And the staff was extremely helpful during our time there and helping get the orders organized for so many people. If I have a big group or a small group or if I’m by myself; this place is worth going to on a weekly basis.“

“This has become my go-to spot when I'm on this side of town. The concept is great and the sushi burritos are always fresh and amazing. The service is great, too. I hope they are able to expand to the center city and/or east side of town, soon.“

“Simply the best! Staff are always incredibly friendly and the Sushi is delicious. I have been dining at Red Sake for the last 3 years and every visit has been exceptional not only in food but also service 🙌🏻“

“It is without exaggeration that I say this is my favorite restaurant in the Charlotte area. You can tell the level of care and detail the food is consistently prepared with. Everything is always just right, from the house made salad dressing, to the breading on the pork, even down to the ramen being just the right thickness and consistency. The servers are always prompt and courteous and the portions are always generous too. I genuinely can’t recommend this place enough, I just wish they were open on Tuesdays.“

“This place is great, the sushi always fresh and their fried rice also great, i always come to this place for chill time in weekdays, perfect for hangout, their place is also spacious no need waitlist.

Tania and Angel always taking care of me, they were awesome.

Love this restaurant.“

“Wonderful food and atmosphere. Great employees! Went twice within 5 days while I was in town visiting. Will definitely come back when I’m town again!!!“

“Sake Sapporo and Sushi 🍣!“

“What a wonderful experience for our 51st Wedding Anniversary. The food was the best ever. The service was prompt, polite, professional and friendly. The atmosphere was charming, clean and family friendly. We will go back.“

“Delicious, filling, and much healthier than my usual fare. I'll definitely be back.“

“The food was excellent, truly very good, my personal favorite was the Louisiana roll, the service was solid, a bit slow, but quality takes time!

Unfortunately, it was unbearably warm inside, I'm not one to complain, but it was warm enough we had to change our order to go and eat in a hotel room.

But, that is either a seasonal problem, or an equipment problem, don't let it dissuade you from visiting!“

“Perfect restaurant that checks all the boxes! Food was amazing! Flavorful & Unique. Server was awesome and took several minutes to explain the menu to me as I’m very new to the Sushi World! The atmosphere was gorgeous! I loved the background music , loud enough for you to hear, but not overpowering! I would definitely come back.“

“Not a sushi girl BUT they have so much more. The vibe is flirty and sexy with intimate charm. BTW love the Cherry Blossom Trees. We ordered a lot. Coconut Fire Shrimp, Garden and Tempura Rolls, Mushroom and Salmon Yakitiri, Goyza, Truffle Fries, Garlic Butter noodles, Plum wine, Crane Returns, Melon Smash and Koi Pond. It was delicious. Everything was bursting with flavor. The garlic noods were bomb. We used them to tie the Yakitori together. Service is extremely fast too!“

“Great value, soul lid experience!“

“The sushi portions were quite large, making it challenging to eat a single piece at once. I thoroughly enjoyed each bite. Although I did not catch my server's name, he was very attentive despite the restaurant being extremely busy. I highly recommend dining at Flight Bar while at this airport.“

“Great value, soul lid experience!“

“The only reservation I could get was at 4:30, so we did the early bird special and went up the stairs to Uchiba! I think they have done a great job getting new stores and restaurants in this new area of Plaza Midwood. We had high hopes for Uchiba and they really delivered on all categories. The space itself wasn’t huge and had almost as much space outside as in. The servers were great and very conscientious about allergies. The food was amazing. The dishes were well paced. We didn’t feel rushed or worried that they forgot us. Uchiba is a great addition to the Charlotte food scene.“

“We had an amazing dinner here during Queens Feast. Highly recommend for a date night as the atmosphere is extremely warm and romantic. Great drinks as well, and the food of course was delicious and extremely fresh.“

“Yugenn is a Japanese restaurant that takes the art of both Japanese cooking and cocktail making to the next level. Whether it be the Hamachi Haru with the semi spicy strawberry Ponzu, salmon nigiri with lemon, or Scarlett Crown Sushi roll (Tempura Soft Shell Crab, Avocado| Topped: Spicy Tuna, Spicy Mayo, Fried Garlic)) It was all delicious artistry. Service was impeccable too (Sophia). The Lotus Milk Punch cocktail probably jumped too my favorite cocktail in Charlotte. (Clarified Don Julio Reposado, Zacapa, Lime, Pineapple, Coconut)“

“We had an incredible experience at Mizu! Cameron was our server, and he was extremely knowledgeable and did a great job guiding us through the menu and helping us choose our dishes. Everything we ordered was absolutely amazing and packed with flavor. We tried the Taki fries, robata chicken, lobster fried rice, spiced carrots, sea bass, cowboy roll, and lemon drop roll—and every single dish was outstanding. We sat out on the patio, which was perfect on such a beautiful night. Great food, great atmosphere, and excellent service. Highly recommend Mizu!“

“So good! Had the Tom Kha soup, Shrimp Shumai dumplings and Mussamun Curry. All delicious! Can’t wait to try the Sushi rolls. Everything was over the top good!“

“Our favorite sushi spot!!“

“Excellent sushi, always top quality and the servers are warm and friendly. I highly suggest going by to grab some of your favorite sashimi or sushi.“

“Great food and service! Love the family atmosphere and friendliest of the owners. 10/10 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Good food - Excellent wait staff“

“We had a awesome waitress and the cook was amazing 🥰🥰🥰‼️“

“Tight entrance-exit lanes. Nice inside one way up/down lanes so you don’t have to cross other vehicles on tight turns going floor to floor. Easy fast down “twistie” lane on side of building to get to ground floor. Lots of open space even during week days in upper floors. Spaces are not particularly spacious.“

“Excellent sushi every time. Reasonably priced with a great atmosphere.“

“Their sushi is quality. The cherry blossom and sexy dragon are my favorites. The owners are amazing gals who take pride in their craft. Cocktails were delicious and their sake were smooth. We had an amazing experience and loved the atmosphere.“

“so amazing! the curry is outstanding and thai hot is the way to go if you're up for it!“

“This is one of the BEST Thai restaurants I have been to. First of all the food is delicious. I ordered their General Tso chicken. The chicken was not hard and crunchy it was soft and tasty and I had more on my plate than I could eat. They give you plenty. The sushi was fresh. The waiter was friendly and attentive to our needs

So If you want a good deal this is your place.“

“Comments heard at my table: “This is the best pad Thai I’ve ever had!” Also, “This is the best sushi I’ve ever had!” Extra bonus- gluten-friendly. So glad to have found this place!“

“The sushi burritos are FANTASTIC. As well as the shrimp tempura, edamame, and spring roll appetizers. The miso soup is AWFUL, surprisingly. I don't know what was in it but it was more like soggy bread chunks than tofu.“
