Mal Pan - Charlotte
Mal Pan
Description
Mal Pan, located in Piedmont Row, offers a blend of vibrant ambiance and culinary appeal, with some patrons praising its drinks and cozy atmosphere. However, feedback on the food itself paints a less favorable picture, with many diners finding it overpriced and lacking in flavor, particularly with dishes like shrimp tacos and street corn. Despite this, there are notable highlights, including outstanding brunch options like breakfast tacos and the warm service that guests appreciate. While some see potential in their unique offerings, concerns about food quality suggest improvements are needed for a more consistent dining experience.

The ambiance is nice, the drinks are good. I only recommend coming here for drinks and the chips, salsa, and guacamole. The food is not good, the street corn is watery and bland. I wish I read the reviews before visiting so that I would have just gotdrinks. They need to do better with the food that this place offers. It’s not cooked up to par, the shrimp tacos tasted liketomato sauce was poured over them and served. I definitely won’t be ordering food from here again. The food is over priced forthe quality to be trash.

I work in the Raleigh are and needed to help my team host an intimate reception for investors we work with. I called Mal Pan after reading enough good reviews and was helped with setting up a menu, indoor set up for our group of about 30, and a staffready to help the night of. We only called two weeks prior to the event date, so to have them get this together that quickly wasreally amazing! On the day of our event the restaurant was set up beautifully. There was a buffet full of fantastic food, greataccompaniments for our tacos, and very generously poured, creative cocktails. We received a number of compliments on the food,space, etc. and we owe that to the restaurant owner Andre and the Mal Pan team. And for what it's worth all of us agreed thespace would be great for a date night some other time!
Here's my review of the restaurant: I ordered the following items: - Guacamole, Salsa, and Chips: $43.30 - Chips and Salsa: $11.00 (Keep in mind that they do not provide complimentary chips and salsa.) - Cucumber Jalapeno Margarita: $14.00 - California Burrito: $15.00 I had to try the California Burrito after hearing so many positive things about it. While the steak was fantastic, I wasn’t a fan of the fries mixed in with the burrito. The cucumber jalapeno margarita was quite refreshing because of the cucumber, but the jalapeno gave it a strong kick! It was delicious, though I made sure to have water on hand! Overall, I really enjoyed my meal and I look forward to returning to explore more items on the menu. There is a parking garage available, but just be mindful of the time limit.
