Best Solo Dining in Charlotte, North Carolina | Eater Carolinas
"Executive chef Alex Verica cut his teeth working with his father, renowned Charlotte chef Paul Verica, and now he’s steering this new Asian-influenced hot spot in South End. A young crowd packs in for dishes like Verica’s popular deviled eggs (the filling here is shrimp with miso), short rib dumplings, and takes on sashimi. Don’t miss the lobster shooter, a small but tasty bowl of bisque — the low price ($6) includes $1 for @Its4TheKids, a foundation that provides school supplies. There are zero-alcohol cocktails (but sadly, no sakes or sojus yet). For dessert, shaved-ice kakigori, especially one topped with Fernet Branca and cold brew, are fluffy, not stuffy." - Kathleen Purvis
