Yunta

About

Yunta is the Peruvian Japanese restaurant on South Boulevard in South End, and it has stayed one of the hardest reservations in Charlotte years after opening. The room is polished and loud in the best way, with the bar looking straight into the kitchen. Order a ceviche first, then work through bites, sushi rolls and something from the wok section. It delivers big city dining without trying to look like it is doing so.

What to know

  • The Tiger’s Milk ceviche is the one to start with.
  • A Pisco Sour is the drink that goes with everything here.
  • A small enclosed patio offers a quieter table.
  • Bar seats are the best route in without a reservation.
