Wow, really impressed with Panko. The perfect mix of traditional and modern flavors to make this a great addition to charlotte’s food scene. Not to mention, I recognized so many familiar faces from other Charlotte restaurants - they are attracting great talent which speaks volumes.My favorite dish was the kimchi shrimp. YOU MUST TRY!!! Also, don’t sleep on the mocktails!

We have been waiting and very excited for Panko to open, we finally got here for our anniversary dinner and it was amazing. Great atmosphere, lively, great service by the team. The ceviche and octopus to start were so good, and we paired a nigiri with the beef tenderloin for the main. Everything was flavorful and well seasoned. We finished with the flan which was well set and delicious. The cocktail list is great and the mezcal and pisco cocktails shouldn’t be missed. Go try Panko asap!

Panko Charlotte blew us away. We ordered the trilogy of ceviche, the lomo soltado, and the grilled octopus, not a single dish missed. Every bite was bright, flavorful, and the kind of good that makes you pause mid-conversation.The service matched the food. Our server was warm, patient, and walked us through the menu since it was our first visit. The whole space has an inviting vibe: beautiful without feeling stuffy.And the drinks? A whole experience. We tried the Cuzco and the Tunche, both packed with flavor and served in creative Peruvian-inspired designs that honestly deserve their own photoshoot.We’ll be back. Probably sooner than we should be.

This is the best meal I've had in Charlotte. I cannot overstate how good this food and whole experience was. From the plantains and sauce, to the appetizer, to my main meal. Everyone enjoyed their meals, but I had the fettuccine and omg it is the best fettuccine I've ever had. In my life. It was smokey and rich and the flavor sits with you. Service was great, we had Harold and he was very attentive and helpful (also responsible for my fettuccine recommendation). We're going to be back.

Everything we tried was delicious, and the service was excellent. We had the Causa Panko, the grilled salmon, and the Condor de Oro. Every bite was 10/10. We will definitely be back again.
