“Best Traditional Indian Food in Town“

“I love the burgers here at Burger Village. There is something special about them that makes you come back again and again. The Burgers here are not ordinary but at a different level altogether. I would highly recommend this place. They also have a good collection of the draft beer.“

“Just ate at Meat and Bite for the first of many times. Excellent food, the service was phenomenal it was a pleasure to meet Mohammad and staff, definitely lifted my mood and am looking forward to stopping by again.“

“I was blown away by the amazing team at Diced! Erica, Micah, Aries, and Charles not only work in great harmony with one another, they were all kind, knowledgeable about the menu options, engaging, and made sure to thank each guest for stopping in. The store was clean and food was fresh (everything looked like it was replenished regularly) and it taste wonderful! This was my first visit, but it most definitely will not be my last!“

“We got take out and staff was so nice when we picked it up. Food was delicious and plentiful! There is something for everyone from breakfast , served all day , to burgers and options with a Caribbean flare. The plantains were perfect and the grilled chicken with onions had such good flavor ! The chocolate chip pancakes are huge and will serve as a few meals:) The burger was yummy and appeared/tasted handmade. There are many side options. We will be back for sure! Prices were very reasonable. It’s a must -try!“

“WOW! It was our first but not the last visit. The food was ?? amazing. We arrived to see lots of pick-up and delivery orders and small line. Two minutes later, the line was at the door and beyond. It was impressive to see a small crew of about 3 workers in the lune, move lots of orders.The line worker was very patient and helpful to us, as we shared it was our first visit. The options for the bowls were great, all tastey, and full portions. It was costly compared to other restaurants who have bowls, but when we taste the food, we appreciate it more. The food is elevated in flavor and combined it is a symphony of great harmony.We have changed our eating habits to a more healthier selection. Cava gave us a great variety to select from. We appreciate it.This location was so busy that they were challenged in keeping up the cleanliness of tables. We also saw a change in workers shifts. Nevertheless it wasn't horrible. We sat ate and talked for about 1 hour. When we were leaving and other shifts came on, we saw someone starting tp clean and sweep. The order line increased, but flowed swiftly.We will be back and are sharing with others.Vegetarian options: Variety of salad options, lentils, grains, salsa. Pita, hummus, etc....Dietary restrictions: Share your needs and they will help you understand what they have available.Parking: Numerous stores with tons of parking.Wheelchair accessibility: Availability parking and in store.“

“If you want to meet some of the sweetest, loveliest and down right friendly people, I'd say take a trip here and you won't be let down. There is Gabby, Elaina and Jordan who are some of the nicest ladies I have probably ever had the pleasure of being a customer to. Drinks are always on point and the food is great, too. The service and staff here are what really makes it attractive...go give them some attention as they sure do deserve it!!!“

“First time here, and I enjoyed it! My burrito, chips, and the salsa bar were all great. I loved the variety of music playing inside including some reggae. The patio is pet friendly, which I appreciate. The employees were friendly. We will be back!“

“Sosta Cafe is a chill place that serves great tasting food at a reasonable price. The people there are friendly and the cafe is decorated in an simple, but elegant, decor. I couldn't help but notice the attractively unusual lighting chandelier over the counter area. From what we gathered, the staff and/or proprietor have been at it in this location for some thirty years. Businesses don't, typically, survive that long unless they're doing something right!Vegetarian options: Several vegan and vegetarian choices are available on the menu that are clearly markedParking: Paid, street parking is available but can take a little while to find. The cafe is located downtown“

“I normally don’t do foodie posts, but this San Franciscan has found a fabulous little Italian hole in the wall restaurant! The garlic knots were insanely good, hot, and served with marinara. My Farmaggio calzone was not too greasy and scored to allow the cheese to ooze through. The bread was brushed in a buttery garlic glaze that made it crisp but not overly buttery. It’s been two years since I tasted Italian this good! I cannot wait to try their lasagna, Penne all’s Vodka and tiramisu!!!“

“I RARELY give out full five stars but Zaxby’s deserves it! We go there at least once a week (my husband and I) and order the loaded (chicken bacon ranch) fries! It SAYS a side item but it’s more of an actual meal than a side. I LOVE them and can’t get enough!! Way To Go Zaxby’s!Kid-friendliness: They DO have a kids menu!“

“5 Stars overall for the variety. I have tried a few different items from sandwich's, wraps, and paninis; all of which have been delicious. The fries are mediocre at best and typically undercooked and oversalted. The spicy ranch sauce is yum. Overall 5 out of 5 despite the fries because it is a very good price for lunch in downtown Raleigh“

“I snuck away with my niece in law and her boyfriend to get away from thanksgiving food on Black Friday lol. We came just in time for the lunch special (Good prices too!) we were the second party there and quickly seated and served. I order a horchata and my niece got a margarita flight. Both were very good and sweet! My meal was also great the chicken had onions, cheese and garlic on top. The garlic to me might have been too much but still tasty.“

“Bru's is an awesome neighborhood spot and I enjoy living right around the corner and being able to walk here. The food and beer selection is phenomenal. It does get busy during Carolina Hurricanes and NC State games but if you're willing to brave the crowd, it is worth it for the exciting atmosphere.“

“I recently heard about The Mill from one of my recruiter friends. So, a couple of girlfriends and I went to check it out. Immediately we were impressed with the ascetic and ambiance. Our waitress, Marissa, was super nice and helpful. She was able to offer suggestions and her descriptions made our mouth water. So, two of us ordered the Wood-fried Pork Chop and my other friend ordered the Mill Burger. We also had the Maple Bourbon Old Fashioned.When our plates arrived, they were very appealing; we couldn’t wait to dig in. The pork chops were paired with blue cheese mac + cheese and rapini (it’s like a broccolini). I wasn’t too sure about the Mac as I’m not a blue cheese fan, but it was really nice… the sauce was subtle and not pungent as one would think. For me, it was actually the best part of the meal. The pork chop, for me left a lot to be desired. While it was a rather large chop, about four fingers, it wasn’t seasoned well and as we got closer to the bone, it was undercooked to raw in some places.A gentleman came over to check on us, this was before we really got into the meal and I shared my thoughts on the chop being under seasoned as well as my misconception on the apple agrodolce which was on top of the chop. How it was explained, I expected a sauce, not applesauce, but something a bit more thick and less liquidy. He took our notes and thanked us.When our waitress came back to check on us, we had made our way through the meal and the unfortunate undercooked meat. We also explained our discontent with what was left. She explained about the cut and the cook-time etc then sent for the manager. He,in turn, came over and did more explaining, while apologizing, and made it right.All in all, I would definitely got back for drinks as they were on point. And I’d definitely get an order of that blue cheese mac.**note that they are working on a new menu with a new chef and the the four finger chop will not be a part of that new menu. The new menu is expected with the next week.“

“My best friend recommended this place to me because she knows I LOVE Cava. On my first visit, I tried the protein bowl, which I liked. The ingredients taste fresh, and they have more protein options than Cava. My second time, I made my own bowl and gave the cuban pork tenderloin a try, and it was super tasty! My third visit was my favorite!!!! The seared tenderloin is a must try! They seasoned and cooked the steak perfectly. My favorite dressing is the honey habanero, it adds so much flavor to the bowl. It's definitely a step up from Cava and my new go-to lunch spot.“

“This place has good fresh hot food! I had delivered and it was still warm. I ordered the foot long beef hotdog with chilli cheese and slaw and large fried bologna sandwich. It was toasted and very juicy, with mayo tomatoes and cheese. Great service...shout out to Shannon!!!!“

“Delicious food and nice atmosphere. Everything looked clean and inviting. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu items. Today was my first time eating at City Barbeque and I will definitely be coming back. Just can’t say enough good things about this place❣️“

“Everything ❤️ food and hospitality was great“

“Delicious Thai cuisine and very friendly serving staff! A Favorite!“

“Excellent brick oven pizzas with reasonable pricing. Small cup and char pepperoni which is rare in the Raleigh area. Superb excellent service even though we arrived a half hour before closing. Missing a star because the interior is a little dated and worn, but the food and service makes up for that.“

“Mona, Nil, and Jason were absolutely wonderful and accommodating! As someone who cannot have dairy, the vegan pizza made me feel like I was having real cheese again! Thank you so much for your great service and your great restaurant!Highly recommend!“

“They learned how to make it better since their opening. It takes time like fine wine to get better. So crispy, so juicy, high quality chicken. And how did they get those sweet potato fries crispy. Two thumbs up.“

“Great pizza place. The menu has a good selection of food including wings, pizza, salad, and pasta. The waiting times usually aren't that long, depending on how busy it is. Waiters are usually nice and welcoming. Nice atmosphere, makes you feel cozy and lets you enjoy your dinner. Some foods can be overpriced. Our waiter was kind enough to give us recommendations. I recommend this restaurant. Good place.“

“I went there today and sat in the drive thru for a while because it was right at lunch time. I was on my lunch break. When I got to the window I realized I forgot my wallet. Instead of saying sorry we can’t give you this, the lady at the window was so nice and said she would talk to the manager. She came back, handed me the food, and said merry Christmas! I didn’t mention I’m 3 months pregnant but I really appreciate what they did!!“

“All of their food is good but the Chicken Salad is amazingly good. ❤️❤️“

“Some of THE best pizza I've ever had! We drive an hour just to come eat this pizza. The cheese is my absolute favorite but the chicken bacon ranch is awesome too!! Can't go wrong with any choice!“

“Had lunch take-out three times over the last 80 days. Two times of these three the piece of bread given was unacceptable and very very small. It should have been thrown out and not put in a customers bag. One time the dressing was forgotten completely. This 3 stars for the food.“

“We have been going to Dominic's for years! The pizza is delicious. Everything else is just as good. The staff rocks and the location is beautiful around the pond. Live music on weekends and always a smile and great service inside of Dominics. Give it a try! You'll LOVE it!“

“The Pad Thai and the Dan Dan Noodles are delicious! The service is always very fast. Nice atmosphere where music playing overhead. I definitely recommend.“

“First time eating here and the food was great! Will definitely go back.“

“Food is good for your traditional sports bar. Pickle chips were good(and not soggy), butI wish the fried Mac and cheese balls had more flavor or a different sauce(possibly a spicy sauce?)Our main courses were pretty good, nothing to write home about, but we were satisfied.The staff was attentive and the atmosphere is normal for a sports bar.“

“Food and service is always good“

“We tried the breakfast bowl. It was delicious.“

“Excellent service No dressing for salad Going back after 4 pick some up Delay my lunch for supper since there was no salad dressing“

“The Service is amazing, I’ve never eaten her before and the staff was patient and knowledgeable. They help me find a delicious combo that met my diet restrictions without forfeiting taste. I’ll definitely be coming here again. P.s. the music was on point, yacht rock and melodic grooves.?✊?“

“We just left and were quite impressed with how Paris and Frances were managing the entire dining area. The simply refreshing part is they both looked like they were totally enjoying their jobs. Before leaving, I told Frances they were both doing great jobs. She replied “We are trying. There’s two of us. Please come back and see us again!” I was so surprised. Nobody tells you that anymore. Great job Chick fil A for hiring these two!“

“Ate lunch here for the first time. My sandwich was good. It was fresh and well prepared. Local ingredients, interesting choices. I enjoyed the private setting in the woods. I come here for lunch and really enjoy it! For the service and atmosphere, the prices are great. Decent portions, friendly staff. Ate lunch here for the first time. My sandwich was good. It was fresh and well prepared. Local ingredients, interesting choices. I enjoyed the private setting in the woods.“

“UPDATE: I have the pizza another chance after realizing the first time I had the pizza, I was sick due to COVID which coincided with the timing of the pizza. So my apologies.The pizza made us sick. We had loose bowels and throw up middle of the night. The flavor of the pizza and wings is legitimately good though.“

“We stumbled upon OPA and I must say, what a treat! Both the chicken kabob and pork gyros were absolutely delicious. Everything was so fresh and the sandwiches were filled with meat. They even had a bowl of lollipops for our 3 year old daughter (bonus points). We’ll definitely be back soon.“

“First time visiting last nite. Just got the gyro sandwich. It was actually in a pita compared to others who have gentrified it and sell it in a tortilla bread. It’s right next to Popeyes on western Blvd. Should park in gas station next door and walk over due to other cars in the lot for easy convenience. Would try them again in future with maybe some of their other items I guess.“

“Randomly dropped through when taking a friend on a trip down memory lane. Both of us are alumni of NCSU and was happy to see all of the upgraded options on Hillsborough street. Happy to support a local chain. Really loved the emphasis on healthy quick service, and it was quick. The pre-set boxes were really yummy, but love the option to customize especially for folks with dietary restrictions/allergies. Def a college atmosphere, and appreciated that there was plenty of seating up front and some in the back. It was a nice quick meal that I definitely would have indulged in, especially to go.“

“This location looked really nice and clean. Our waitress Kam was informative, generous, and patient. I always viewed Olive Garden as the Walmart of restaurant chains, but this experience has turned me around. I look forward to coming back here with my wife“

“Order online and food was good. Watch the billing and make sure you sign the correct ticket. Received a different ticket then the one that matched the one of my order. Other than that, food was hot and tasted good as suspected.Parking: There are two restaurants that share a parking area so parking is tight in the lot. There is additional parking in the shopping center across from the restaurants.“

“Tuesday evening my husband and I went to Jason's Deli for dinner. Instead of my usual Muffalatta I tried a turkey wrap and a cup of chili. The wrap was very good but, the chili was the BEST that I have ever had !!! Next time no sandwich, just a bowl of that AMAZING chili. Better than my homemade.“

“I was quite impressed with the quality of the food. Great flavor and the tuna wasn't fishy at all. A bit pricey but nothing insane. You can't sit down so tough to enjoy the food without having to drive somewhere else to eat. It was my first time there so I wish the staff would have been more engaging.“

“Excellent pizza and great cheesecake. Friendly and efficient staff. Carolyn Harris“

“Quick service whe;you order with the app, otherwise the ordering line 8s way too long..“

“Same great taste as always and great service considering the lines during lunch. I wish the owner of chic-fil-a wasn't homophobic though, otherwise I'd go more. I understand that this doesn't apply to franchise owners, but the money the franchise makes goes to the corporation... Still great food and great service though.“
