“It was an absolute delight to visit the Chicken Box Cafe and I will return when I fly CLT! Wide variety of menu items and plate options for any size appetite. This was some of the better fried chicken I have eaten anyplace, anytime. I look forward to trying the pork chops next time around. Collard Greens, Mac & Cheese, Fried Okra with cornbread for the sides. Numerous side options available that looked great. Being a basketball lover, it was cool to learn a little about Buckey too. I sincerely appreciate the hospitality!“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Cuzzo Cuisine, and I can confidently say that it was an unforgettable culinary experience! Nestled in the heart of the university area, this gem offers a vibrant atmosphere that perfectly complements its outstanding menu.
My daughter order the fried shrimp and lobster, and I was blown away by the freshness and flavor. The shrimp were perfectly crispy, while the lobster had a delightful tenderness that made each bite absolutely amazing!

The mac & cheese, which was nothing short of heavenly. Creamy, cheesy, and baked to perfection, it was a comforting side that paired beautifully with the seafood. You can tell they use quality ingredients, and it truly felt like a homemade dish that warms the soul.

The chicken and shrimp combo was another highlight. The chicken and shrimp bowl was served over a bed of rice inside of the half cut pineapple. Proportion size pineapples added twist to this dish, which was amazing. It was a feast for the eyes as well as the palate. The combination of tropical flavors was refreshing and complemented the heartier dishes beautifully.

Lastly, I can't forget to mention the flounder fish. It was light, flaky, and seasoned just right. The freshness of the fish really shone through, making it a delightful end to my meal.

Overall, Cuzzo Cuisine exceeded my expectations in every way. The service was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was inviting. If you're in the Charlotte area, do yourself a favor and stop by for a meal that will leave you craving more. Five stars all the way!“
