Finally another great sushi place in Charlotte!\n\nI am always hesitant about sushi restaurants, they are either really good, or really, really bad. Eight has a funky laid back vibe and feels very welcoming. Some of the great artwork by local artists, ahem..Matt Hooker & Matt Moore, gives this place a vibrant feel. \nI was a bit disappointed they don't serve hot sake, but was quickly turned on to the cold sake served in shot glass inside a box which fills with the pour over from the glass. The server told me the overflow was a representation of of happiness and good luck. Quite charming I might say. \nThe food was on point, we ordered several rolls and one beef skewer. I was impressed with everything we had. They have a lot to choose from and it was hard to make a decision. The Godzilla Wrath roll was probably one of my favorites, it's super spicy (in a good way) so if you're not a fan of the heat, I'd steer clear. \nI highly recommend this place and will definitely be returning to try some more items.
