Located on the waterfront at the historic Old South Wharf, Bar Yoshi offers classic Japanese cuisine including sushi, noodles and dumplings, as well as raw bar offerings, poke, ceviche and, new for 2021, larger “Bar Yoshi Plates.” The beverage program has also been relaunched for the 2021 season, with new beer, sake and wine offerings, in addition to creative cocktails.



The cocktail program, in particular, was created with several ideas in mind. Bar Yoshi is a Japanese inspired restaurant and represent that using traditional ingredients such as Sake, shiso, yuzu and more. There are also items shared across the company (other restaurants in Connecticut include Shell & Bones Oyster Bar and Grill, Geronimo Tequila Bar and Southwest Grill and Camacho Garage) that are fan favorites. The unifying inspiration is that Bar Yoshi is located on the beautiful island of Nantucket. The program offers guests an opportunity to escape the day-to-day hustle and bustle and to feel elevated from the rest. This is done through island-style cocktails, such as the "I am a Daiquiri," and sourcing fresh local ingredients to create an experience not to be forgotten. 


Summer 2021 marks an expansion of the award-winning restaurant. The original, intimate indoor dining space with direct views of the kitchen offers limited tables and sushi bar seating, and the new, open-air space next door adds a full bar with seating, in addition to tables and banquettes, providing direct waterfront views of the marina, as well as an expanded outdoor seating area. Bar Yoshi is open seven days a week for continuous service from 12pm-10pm (with a late night program launching soon) during the Spring, Summer and Fall seasons on the island for dine-in and takeout, and offers catering to private homes, yachts and aircraft.

RADA REDEFINES DINING IN CHARLOTTE WITH NYC FLAIR

February 16, 2025
Rada, a chic new restaurant in Myers Park, introduces Charlotte to an elevated dining experience with tapas, biodynamic wines, and shareable plates. Helmed by Chef Callan Buckles, formerly of acclaimed NYC spots like Claud, Momofuku, and The Four Horsemen, the menu is a bold fusion of global influences. Owner Eloy Roy envisioned this contemporary American eatery in the former Little Spoon space, creating a cozy yet upscale 50-seat spot with mint green walls and a minimalist aesthet-ic. From a $3 Gilda skewer to a $110 sirloin, Rada’s offerings reflect Buckles’ culinary pedigree and adventurous flair. With dishes like eggplant escabeche and seabass paired with txakolina wine, Rada aims to carve out a niche in Charlotte’s emerging shared-plates scene.Rada blends fine dining with approachability, focusing on flavors that challenge Charlotte’s palate while embracing its neighborhood vibe. Highlights include crispy roast chicken with vegetable farcis and Asian-inspired touches like fish sauce and shio koji. The bar program is equally compelling, featuring a gin martini made with anchovy oil and Basque pepper brine. Roy believes Rada will resonate deeply with diners, offering something fresh yet familiar. This new spot, opened on Selwyn Avenue, invites locals to indulge in innovative cuisine and discover what they’ve been craving all along.
