I'm visiting Charlotte for a couple weeks. Sitting in the hotel on a weekend sucks, so I decided to check out the south side of town. As always, I checked with Yelp to find a great lunch spot. And as always, y'all delivered!
I thought it might be super crowded at 12:30 on Sunday due to the Panthers football game. Apparently everyone is AT the game because the place was only about half full. I must have been early because by the time i left around 1:30 there was a wait.
The gal who opened the door for me as well as the guy at the host stand were both super friendly. I told them it was my first visit and I was looking for a great sushi roll. They provided several recommendations, all which looked fantastic.
My server was Leanna. I give her a shout out because she was BEYOND nice and attentive. A Los Angeleno could get used to this kind of southern friendliness!
I ordered a Mark's Roll sans jalapeno. It was delicious, ranks at the top of my all-time favorite roll list. I didn't try anything else, but all the food around me looked fantastic.
At the end of the meal the service manager stopped by (I'm sorry, forgot her name). Another super nice gal who said their main source of business is word of mouth and sites like Yelp. A restaurant that survives mainly by word of mouth just HAS to be good!
I could go on and on but I won't . Suffice it to say if I livedin Charlotte I'd be a regular at Cowfish like Norm at Cheers. Enjoy!
