“ Awesome Experience!!!! I placed my order and it was completed in a timely manner. I felt there was an ample amount of food and it was very taste. I will order again from cuzzo's. This Was my first visit to the university and it was Awesome Experience!!!! ”
“ I ordered Tenders and Lobster Mac and I wanted a sauce that was spicy and had kick. Noelle suggested a couple sauces and then said she would make one for me. I tasted the sauce with a tender and it was just what I wanted. Thank you Noelle!! Anthony ”
“ In Charlotte riding around, the city was looking for a quick bite and looked at my list of places to try, and Cuzzo's was in close proximity, so I chose to go there. When I walked inside, it was a lot bigger than the pictures I've seen lead on. There were plenty of seats and a huge bar there as well! Always a pleasant surprise when you can get some drank while you wait for your meal, in my humble opinion, lol. The decor was cool, and the way it was set up looked like it could get really busy some days, I was there on a Sunday evening, and the weather was not good, so it was light. The restaurant wasn't empty, there was a steady flow of people but it definitely was not busy. I had plenty of time to look at the menu, which was very simple, nothing too crazy, the cashier took my order, and my food came out at a decent time. Now for the food.......DELICIOUS. I think this was my favorite meal since I have been here in Charlotte, I had the Cuzzo's combo meal, which came with wings, lobster mac and cheese, collard greens, and a lemonade. One word.....flavor! Everything was really good, and I'll be honest I am not hard to please, and I was definitely hungry when I had it, but that does not take away from anything here. The lobster mac was divine. By far my favorite thing I ate there, if there is one thing you must try there, I recommend the lobster mac. Oh wow, I had this Pear Lemonade too so good. I am making it a point to go back before I leave, phenomenal! ”
“ This place blew me away! I went right around the time they opened. I had no expectations, but man they blew me away. Incredibly friendly service. I got their lobster mac & cheese with shrimp. The shrimp were fried to perfection and so tender. The mac & cheese had tons of lobster in it and wasn't too cheesy. I've noticed a lot of places can have too much cheese, but this place isn't one. 10/10 meal. Will be back again soon. ”
“ This place is NOT closed. I went there today and had lobster mac-n-cheese with Mombo wings!!! And it was great!! ”
“ With their expansion to the University area, Cuzzo's, a New Orleans-inspired cuisine, teases your taste buds like a proper bowl of shrimp and grits on Fat Tuesday. For my weekday visit, I ordered the Fish and 1/2 Lobster mac-n-cheese platter for lunch. While not exactly a bargain at $13 (plus about a 15-minute wait for it to be prepared) it was, nevertheless, worth it. Really, worth it. The fish is lightly breaded, and with a nice array of spices, allows the flounder to shine without piling on the heat. I like that. The lobster mac-n-cheese is flavorful and creamy, with the pasta cooked a perfect el dente. Although one can never have enough lobster, it was plentiful and tasty, too. So tasty, in fact, that on my next visit I will pre-order a vat of it and make it a Spa Day. Just heat it up and I'll jump in. Yeah, that good. Mmmm. Cuzzo's has other things I'm interested in, too. Wings, chicken, shrimp and grits, and more lobster mac-n-cheese, please. Others have noted they are working out the kinks of a new location. Let's hope they do 'cause they got my "Give 'em a whirl" meter just a humming. Looking for something a little more southern than Charlotte? Go here. ”
“ I was so glad that this place came to university because it saved us the 25 minute drive to the other location! It is much bigger, has a bar area, and a lot of tables compared to the other one. The staff was really friendly and many servers checked up on us while we waited. The only issue I had was that the food took 30+ minutes to come out, and at the other location they are pretty fast. Everything here tastes amazing, great portions, and you really can't go wrong with anything you order. Also, you can't come to Cuzzo's and not get the lobster mac. It's definitely the most known and best thing on the menu. Make sure to get that as a side with whatever you get! ”
“ Grand opening today! Welcome to the east side, Cuzzo's! I got the chance to visit today for their grand opening for their new location in the university area. Upon entering, I was greeted by the hostesses and asked if I was doing dine in or take out. After telling them I was doing take out, I went to the register. I ordered the fish and grits with a side of lobster mac (there's no way I'm coming to any location of cuzzo's and not order the lobster mac). I was told that my wait would be about 25 minutes. Well the 25 turned into 45. I didn't mind waiting because there is more often than not a bit of a wait time at their other location, as well. The fish was crispy and juicy, the grits were flavorful, and the lobster mac was terrific as usual. I had no doubt that things would turn out excellent. But FYI: as this is a new location, there may be a few kinks that may need to be worked out. Give them some time to get in the groove. Also have PATIENCE. If you want a quick meal, go to a fast food restaurant. You will have to wait but it'll be worth it. If not, let them know and they'll make it right for you. Enjoy! ”
