Once again had the most fabulous experience at Oku. We have celebrated all our big events here, engagement, anniversaries and now my husbands 30th birthday where they went above and beyond making our experience out of this world. I’m so thankful for all the memories we’ve shared here, which is why we come back from Ohio every single year to enjoy their amazing hospitality and food. Thank you to Trey and all of the amazing team!

I’ve been to a CD location in Tempe many times, but first time visiting this location in CLT. The service from Josh was wonderful and the food was just as good as my visits in Tempe. Parking validation is a nice plus for the area too.

Stir never disappoints. I typically go to the Raleigh location, which is awesome. The Charlotte one was just as great. Our server, G was amazing and very personable. She provided stellar service while also chatting and engaging with us the entire time. We had a wonderful time and will always keep Stir as a staple.

Experience was great and service was top notch. Many of the dishes on the east side lacked flair or flavor and were not hot. My favorite dish was the Hamachi on the east side. The DJ started around 7:ish and for such a small place the music was entirely too loud. Beating in your chest loud.
