We went to Malabar last night before the Charlotte Symphony Orchestra show and it was my first time there. The atmosphere is great with a small space and everybody in the same room. It's great use of the space and you can see what other tables are getting as you prepare for your next possible dish. The service was great and our questions were answered with accurate descriptions of the food. The stuffed peppers were delicious and I can't wait to go again so I can try the paella and something from their wine list.
