| - Okay wow. I have eaten here a ton and I forgot I had never written a review! My boyfriend and I simply love Cowfish! It is one of our favorite spots around Charlotte, and a plus for us is that it's close to home! You cannot beat the unique vibe and menu that they offer.
You will feel the good vibes from the second you arrive, they always open the door for you and the staff have without fail been a group of friendly and helpful individuals. Now, to all beware, dinner time and ESPECIALLY weekend nights: you will wait!! BUT! It is worth it and you will not be able to deny that. They have a pretty good system in place, I believe now you can add your name to a list via an app before you even get there. They provide corn hole out front to entertain you, often times you can slip into a spot at the bar, and they really do move and try to get you in as quickly as possible. The reason for the wait is just because they do not accept reservations. If you want to sidestep this part of the experience, lunch is ideal for you.
Now, once you are seated, prepare to read the novel menu. Don't overlook or skip over something because it sounds like it won't work or you think it won't taste good--this is a place to try new things and your taste buds will be rewarded for you bravery, I swear! They also have a wonderful cocktail menu and their hot teas are delicious and budget friendly. For the low price you get more servings of tea than I believe a human can consume in one sitting. (My favorite is the vanilla mint chai)
I personally love their outdoor patio. They have fans and/or overhead heat lamps, whichever season you are dining they are ready for you. They have the tables, a cozy seating area with couches, and a fun game section with a life size connect four...fun for both adults and children alike.
My favorite menu item I recently have become obsessed with is the grilled salmon salad!! It is absolutely huge and has the best combination of flavors. The sesame encrusted goat cheese just makes it even more heavenly and I could probably eat a whole plate of these little lovelies on my own. You of course need to eat some sushi, it is consistently fresh and well made. I have yet to try a milkshake here but it seems like they are a hit and I constantly crave one every time I look, I am just waiting for my conscience to lower its guard so I can order one someday :)
So get yourself over here, we all know half of Charlotte will be Christmas shopping at the mall anyway, might as well swing by and enjoy a great meal before leaving the area! Enjoy :)
