Hibiscus - Charlotte

Came her for the top 25 new restaurant rating. It wasn’t very crowded for a Saturday night hmmm maybe not the hip spot it once was?. Service was great so extra stars for the waitresses. The food wasn’t seasoned enough for me. Had the veggie rice wrap and felt like they needed more herbs. The spring rolls were also very bland to the point that we only ate one. The dinner ginger plate with tofu wasn’t seasoned very well and the sauce was way to watered down. Tofu had no flavor. My husband pad Thai was very good though. food was fresh just needs more pep.

Great customer service. Good food. The menu has lot to offer. Their starters are mouth watering and the sushi tastes great. Try their red or yellow curry. They are flavourful and tasty. Would recommend this if you are into asian fusion style food.

This is one of my favorite place in Charlotte. The ambiance is great. The people are warm and nice. But most importantly, they serve really good food! There are a variety of options to choose from but not too many that will overwhelm you. If you aren’t familiar with the dishes, the menu describes the ingredients on each one but sadly no photo on the menu but you can always google the image for each dish if you really are curious of what it looks like. It’s a great place for a date night or just dinner with family and friends.

Me and my wife ate here in the late afternoon. Not too busy. The service was good and the flavors were excellent. We had the pork belly ssamang for an appetizer. It was good but the pork belly was under seasoned, the dipping sauce was excellent and made up for the lack of seasoning. I had the green curry and my wife had the red curry, both where excellent with a great depth of flavors. The only complaint is there were way too many green beans in both entrees. We also had the fried chicken wings, they where nice and crispy, the dipping sauce was good, I thought it was a little heavy on the fish sauce. All and all a good experience.

I am on a search for the best Thai restaurant in Charlotte, and Hibiscus definitely ranks high on my list. High marks for friendly and fast service, on the weekday night that I chose. Relaxing and beautiful environment that was perfect to enjoy and recharge in after a long 10 hour day at work. I enjoyed the Cashew Stir-Fry (wish they put the authentic names on the menu), and the Thai Iced Tea was also very good. The spiciness scale only goes to 5, but if you ask nicely they might bring a tray of extra spices to your table to enjoy. This hidden little gem is much bigger than it appears from outside, and it is tucked away in the corner on the lower level, near the courtyard and fountains, accessible by either stairs or elevator. I would come back with friends, or on a date night, and enjoy this unique location again.
