OROSOKO Sound Bar by Solandra Hospitality features unique East v. West small plates from renowned chef Jay

Make a reservation now. This will be your new favorite restaurant the moment you walk in. It's intimate. It's sexy. AND they back it up with fabulous food from the unparalleled chef Jay Pound. His food is beautiful, effortless and unfussy. The menu makes trying new dishes fun and we loved the east meets west concept. The cocktails looked amazing, but we opted for wine and probably had too much since we stayed to hear a fantastic set from DJ Smitty. The restaurant is small, so there are whispers of a plan to open a separate bar across the street. I'm sure they are going to need a waiting room when word gets out.

This place is absolutely amazing! The experience and the atmosphere is elevated and top-notch. Everything is curated perfectly! I went by myself, and everyone from the person opening the door to being seated to the bartenders was all so inviting. The bartenders make delicious drinks and are very attentive! It is an intimate space, making it more relaxed and appealing. I didnt have food, but I am looking forward to returning soon to try some of the dishes. This place is setting the bar for the subpar places in Charlotte! Thank you for a great escape! I had a fantastic experience!

What a fun night out! This place was awesome. The food and drinks were delicious. My favorite items were the chicken dumpling and the mushroom taco. The decor is modern and tasteful. The music was great & the sound system was stellar. We enjoyed the music without struggling to hear our conversation. I can't wait to come back.

This place is phenomenal. We walked in without a reservation on a Friday evening with no trouble, and bar seats opened up pretty quickly. The food was delicious, the drinks were well crafted, and the staff genuinely cares about every guest's experience. Plus it really is a well engineered soundbar. Everything here is just so thought out and intentional. I can't wait to go back and bring more friends so they can experience it too!

Really creative cocktail menu where they use quite a bit of sake and made-in-house syrups. Food was also really good, especially the dumplings and crab burritos. Edamame with chili crisp is my new favorite bar snack! Only thing is I wish they had a more formalized mocktail menu. Morgan was a great bartender and made my friend who doesnt drink alcohol some really cool drinks, and I wish I could go and try them myself on a night Im not drinking! Cocktails were $16 each which is VERY reasonable for Charlottes craft cocktail scene

Been wanting to visit for a while now and our favorite bartender/mixologist Ever recently joined the Orsoko team. The man has brought his exceptional talent to such a cool space! We loved the atmosphere - having a classy but chill vibe was the exact thing we were looking for and the DJ kept the mood right. The drinks are excellent and the energy is great! Keep up the good work

The service was excellent from the moment we walked in attentive, warm, and genuinely welcoming. The bartender was on point all night, making sure everything was perfectly balanced. We went on a weekend night to celebrate Valentines as our pre-game, and it truly set the tone. The Spice of Mavis and the Aejo Espresso Martini were exceptionally well crafted smooth, balanced, and memorable. A spectacular way to start the night.

We had a Galentines there. Nice atmosphere. Make sure you make reservations because it fills up fast. Small space, but very grown and sexy. Service was good to start but at shift change the new host didnt keep up the great service. The crab burrito, and beef and broccoli are a must try. Honorable mentions: the pork belly steamed buns and Cuban style scallops. Good times, definitely recommend going.

Great spot for small eats and good drinks to get the night started. Really amazing vibe and so fun for a first date or regular date night with your boo. There is a DJ playing music which makes the atmosphere 10x better.

An above and beyond experience! From the beautiful door-a work of art by itself-to the amazing intimate atmosphere inside. Volga was extremely attentive and friendly. She truly immersed us in the experience of this hidden-gem lounge. The food and cocktails were excellent! I highly recommend trying the hamachi, crab rolls, and the scallops from both the East and West selections. The music was absolutely fantastic, and the sound system is unlike anything else in Charlotte! A destination that exceeds expectations in every sense. Looking forward to come back!
