PARA Charlotte

Decide to check this new restaurant out and it was an nice dining experience, please note they are known for their small plates that have a global influence, the dishes were good, my favorite were the short rib dumplings. What I enjoyed the most were the creative cocktails. The Koi in the Pond was my favorite. Atmosphere: Saturday night had a dj, the music was a bit loud and hard to have a conversation without shouting. I suggest the music volume be turned down just a smidge, but that was my only complaint. I adjusted to the volume and enjoyed my evening. Service: Waitress was attentive, knowledgeable and our server knew her wines, cocktails and what they paired well with. I will return!

It was alright,can't say I was blown away by flavor, or concept of the dishes but the customer service was great. The venue is very nice, with both indoor and outdoor seating available Although we were seated immediately, I'd highly recommend making a reservation! It's important to note that food is served tapas style (small plates) so pregame w/a snack and big glass of water.

Most amazing food and beautiful decor! Totally worth coming back. Everything was perfect, cocktails, ambiance, food and service. The lamb chops are out of this world and the truffle steak was amazing. Pro tip: ask for extra truffle on your steak, you wont regret it.

All I can say is wow! I am so glad we decided to have brunch here on our drive through Charlotte. It definitely has club vibes during the day on the weekend but we got in early before the untz started. The decor in this place is top notch. Wonderful atmosphere and really cool design palette. Their cuisine is a mix of everything and seems to have no specific parameters. For example, I got the Pork Belly Grits and my girls friend got Crab Bao Buns. Both were really good but could not have been more different. They also both came with home fries, which were good but, again eclectic. My girlfriend also got a Summertime Sadness cocktail that was very spicy. The drink menu seemed inventive and interesting for a brunch spot. This one, however, was very spicy. Come here for dinner or brunch! It is definitely upscale. Would probably make a great date spot.

We went last night and had a great evening. Our server was attentive and gave great explanations and recommendations. The cocktails were fun and tasty, came much quicker than similar cocktails typically do. We ordered just about one of everything on the menu but the crab rangoon was my favorite with the short rib dumplings and gnudi not far behind. Everything was reasonably priced and the place had great atmosphere.
