Restaurants in Apex

“Hidden Gem in the heart of the unexpected. Akami is not where you'd expect to find it. Nestled amidst a convenience store, this unassuming restaurant serves up some of the most extraordinary sushi I've ever tasted! The sushi itself is a masterpiece. The fish is incredibly fresh, the rice is perfectly cooked, and the flavors are simply divine. If you're looking for a truly unique dining experience, I highly recommend checking this place out!”

“My husband and I had dinner here a couple weeks ago for our first time. We had a great experience, from making a reservation to the desert everything was fantastic! We will definitely be back soon!”

“Very busy night with a hard drinking reheardinner in the back room. Man that bar tender is a pro's pro. Slamming out so many mixed drinks quickly. Staff so friendly, fun, and accommodating. We all loved our meals. Cool spot”

“Peak of the Vine at Apex offers a unique cocktail and wine experience. The bar's elegant yet cozy atmosphere sets the stage for John, the skilled mixologist, to craft bespoke cocktails tailored to your tastes. There’s no menu—just a personalized drink experience that always hits the mark. Complementing the cocktails is a well-curated wine list, with staff eager to provide expert recommendations. Attentive service and a welcoming vibe make every visit memorable. For a truly customized drink experience, Peak of the Vine is a must-visit.”

“Love Vicious Fishes, phenomenal beer, fantastic people, great place!”

“The sushi offered at this establishment was exceptional. The menu is impressive, featuring images of the various dishes. I would highly recommend this venue. Moreover, the staff is exceedingly courteous.”

“If I could give Maureen Amberg a 10 Star review I would, she is the reason my very first experience dining at Longhorn Steakhouse was so wonderful. She was so keen to make sure our time here was great and went out of her way with service. We will be coming back for sure. The food was better than we expected. Thank you!”

“The music was obnoxiously loud and my dining experience was not great. The food was very average and we will not go back. We will continue to go back to our favorite Mex place on Lake Pine Dr!”

“The food was delicious. Great service and cocktails.”

“Always great coffee, we love it here.”

“Great food, great service!”

“Emilee is wonderful! And the food is delicious! We love First Watch in Apex!”

“The virgin Mojito they made me tonight was the best one I’ve had at bar yet! The fresh mint and garnishes were fun too. It’s hard to make a mojito taste like a mojito without the alcohol and y’all nailed it! Perfection! This is the perfect time of year for the outdoor bands the way it has the covered dance floor such a fun night. I love how you guys redid it. It’s elevated for sure! Fun!”

“Such a cute shop! And super sweet service. Will def return! ❤️❤️❤️”

“Fantastically delicious food! We will definitely be coming back even if it means commuting over an hour! It was well worth it. My husband who is Irish descent loved it too.”

“Every single item my husband and I have had at Rudy’s has been not good, not great, but exceptional. The vibe is warm and friendly, the service is top tier, the prices are terrific, and the entrees are outstanding. We love Rudy’s!”

“Great café with delicious coffee and food! The atmosphere is pleasant, and the service is top-notch — I really enjoy it here. If you’re looking for a spot to grab a great cup of coffee, this is the place to be.

The only downside is the strong smell coming from the kitchen, even with the high ceilings. I’m not sure why this issue hasn’t been resolved yet. We usually sit outside on the terrace, but now that it’s getting colder, it would be nice if they could fix the smell so we could comfortably sit inside.”

“So I grew up in the 60's and 70's right up the street in utica that made the best Half moons and Tomato pie. I now live here in NC and love to be able to get my fix without having to have a family member delivery it from NY. You have done a great job bringing these 2 items to NC. But I do have one suggestion on your Tomato pie 😊 I believe you got the sauce down pat 👍, but the crust needs to be softer and moisture and not so airy and dry. And reduce the size of the ends. Too much hard crust with no sauce 😊 Half moons are great but they could be better with the cookie part be thinner and more fudgie and the vanilla frosting be more creamy like the chocolate frosting. But all and all everything is great at the Utica Bakery. Thank you for bringing a little bit of Utica to Apex. Hope you open a little restaurant soon with Greens on the menu 😋”

“Great London Fog Lattes and waffles with exceptional service and the best atmosphere!”

“Amazing rolled iced cream”

“Mezza Luna has become our go-to for pizza! We ditched our old downtown Cary pizza joint after trying Mezza Luna and we haven't looked back. We even ordered take-out for the Super Bowl from Mezza Luna.

The Grandma Pie is our favorite with its amazing crust, fresh sauce, and perfect amount of cheese. The other pies we've tried are also great, but we keep going back to the Grandma Pie. We pair with salads, meat balls, and calamari. We've loved everything we've ordered. Everything is fresh and pricing is also very fair.

Clean and relaxed environment. We've been there when it's been really quiet and we've also been there when it's been super busy. Either way, service has been efficient and friendly no matter the level of busyness.

You can tell it's a family-run business and they really pour themselves into Mezza Luna and their food. They even come out of the kitchen to interact and chat with customers, treating everyone like family.

If you haven't yet visited yet, do yourself a favor and give Mezza Luna a try. You'll definitely be back!

Parking: Large parking lot with plenty of spaces available.”

“Great Service, Great Food and drinks”

“I have been looking for a buffalo chicken pizza as good as the one I get back home since I moved down here 7 years ago. My wife and I ordered from Romeo's for the first time last night. Romeo's buffalo chicken pizza is so good that we ordered it again for lunch today!”

“We feel so lucky to have discovered Captain’s Gastro! They usually park in spacious areas, which allows kids to move around freely and safely. The food is absolutely delicious, and it’s clear they care deeply about cleanliness. Parking is also very convenient. Thank you for your great service!”

“We ordered the Valentine’s heart-shaped pizza advanced, which was really nice through the app and it was delicious ready waiting for us at the time we requested so it was perfect”

“Friendly staff and great food! The sushi, soup, and goyza were amazing. We will definitely return!”

“We recently stopped by for dinner and discovered they offer a dinner buffet. The staff were extremely nice and helpful. They insisted on bringing out fresh pizza and garlic knots to ensure we had fresh food on the buffet. The spaghetti, pizza, garlic knots, and salad were all very good. We will be back.”

“After my first bite to the last, which I couldn’t finish it all, I felt like I was at my Grannie’s dinner table again! It was absolutely amazing food; the young lady taking our order, so very nice & a smile to match. I did ask her if my Grannie was in the kitchen…lol.”

“This place was great. We came on a Saturday for lunch and the selection was great, the customer service was awesome, the aesthetics were amazing. We had such a good time. My 5 year old said their cheeseburger was better than McDonald’s so that is really saying something. They had fun stuff for all ages but it was super hot so my kids only did the tire playground.”

“ive been coming here since we moved in a decade ago and theyre always so consistent its amazing. ive always gotten the burrito bowl with
white rice, black beans, brisket, tomatoes, lettuce, cheese, guac, sour cream, cilantro and light tortilla chips on top.
10/10 meal”

“Great wings! I personally think they are the best in Holly Springs. Always good service and very friendly people.”

“I tried the vegan Unreal Deli Sandwich today and loved it! it was big enough for me to share with my husband who couldn't even tell it was vegan! The bread was hearty and so good. I try to eat mostly vegan for health reasons but my husband who doesn't usually like veganish things said he would eat this again!”

“Hadn't tried this place despite coming to Apex frequently. Really wish I had tried them sooner. Excellent fried seafood served hot, fresh and from friendly staff. Highly recommended.

Vegetarian options: Few and far between. Not a vegan/vegetarian place.”

“Great spot for the students and their families! We really enjoy eating here, there’s always lively music and the service is pretty speedy! Best tacos I’ve had!”

“I ordered the Southern Bowl and let me tell you.... it was amazing!!! It was fully packed with sausage, homestyle potatoes, eggs, grits, gravy, and so much flavor! I felt like I was eating one of my momma's great southern breakfasts. I will definitely be coming back for more tasty foods.”

“The best ice cream in Apex!”

“A few months ago, my daughter was excited to say hello to ‘the orange man’, as she does every morning before school. She tripped and scraped her knee pretty good. We ran inside where we met the sweetest girl, Kayla. She gave us bandaids, paper towels, and even a lollipop for my daughter. We continue to visit Kayla, and enjoy our weekly mommy and daughter Coffee & Muffin dates at The Mocha Room. It’s the cutest coffee shop with great food, coffee, and the best staff- especially Kayla!”

“As a taco snob, I approve of these tacos!!! From the fresh tortillas, to the great salsas and guacamole. Hire this team and cater a great party!”

“Our server was wonderful and the food was delicious!
We had the Brussels sprouts for an appetizer (yum!). We had a Nashville hot chicken sandwich and a “build your own” grilled chicken sandwich for entrees. The fries were super tasty too. Highly recommend!”

“A down home establishment with good cooking. Not fancy. Just good eats.

Parking: Parking around their building. Approximately 30 spaces available. Space for trucks with trailers in back, but not more than two or three at a time.”

“We are from Texas and drive 30 minutes just to get a piece of home. This place never disappoints”

“Can’t get enough of these delicious ice cream, this has been my second time going and I love the ice cream options they have, even fruits in a cup which are call mangonada they are so delicious if you love mango with tajin. We had a Oreo cookies popsicle and churros and coconut ice cream with malsapan(it’s kinda taste like almond) very delicious I will really recommended it.”

“We DoorDashed Culver's. the burgers and crinkle fries were good, but the Andes mint shake was the star of the show. Wow, just Wow.”

“They have some good ice creams on the menu”

“Kicker Konfections was incredible to work with! Amy is extremely professional, timely, and made exactly the vision I gave to her a reality! I got endless compliments on the cookies; not only the design, but the taste and freshness of them were perfect. She is a joy to work with, and I highly recommend Kicker Konfections for your next event.”

“Mr. A’s Beignets: A Powdered Sugar Revelation Mr. A’s beignets are so good, I had to sit down and reevaluate some life choices. Light, fluffy, perfectly fried, and drowning in powdered sugar—just like the ones in New Orleans… but honestly? Better. Yeah, I said it. One bite and I was spiritually transported to the French Quarter—minus the street smells and saxophones. These beignets are dangerously good. Like, “accidentally eat the whole box before pulling out of the parking lot” good. They’re golden perfection with a powdered sugar blizzard on top. Soft in the middle, crisp on the edges, and clearly made with love (and possibly sorcery). Highly recommend. Bring napkins. And self-control.”

“Nicest staff. Great food! Love this place!!!”

“Great place to find excellent craft beers at reasonable prices. Dog friendly and very cool crowd.”

“Juicy, tender, flavorful chicken. Best food we've had since moving to NC. Will definitely be frequenting their locations!! Prices are great too.”

“Great good. Customer service was a bit lacking though…”

“Went for the first time on Saturday March 6. I got a beef taco and my kids got the same. I also ordered a side of rice. The food took about 8 minutes to make. We opened up our taco and it looked delicious. There was a little lime in all our taco meals. The taste was amazing! The tortilla was authentic and delicious as well! The rice was the best I ever had! We will be back to try more tasty menu items!”

“Delicious food and great service even for a family of 6. The servers were very attentive. This was a great place to eat as a finish to our vacation. The wings were probably the best I’ve ever had. I got the Shearon Harris and the flavor was excellent with the right amount of heat. My wife and oldest had the regular BBQ flavor and that was also very good. The Tots with queso was amazing as well. If you’re in the area I strongly suggest trying this place out.”

“I've tried multiple blends of Peak City Coffe and they're all really good. my favorite is the House Blend! Give it a try.”

“Great service good beer selection with a clean relaxing environment 🩷”

“Excellent service. Yummy food”

“I just wanted to say my husband and I were in last night at the Holly springs location after the dinner rush. He had the special and I had the baked ziti bolognese which both were fantastic! The service was excellent! The waitress was wonderful!!! She was the sweetest. I wish I got her name but I do know she’s from Naples and we talked a bit. Just overall fantastic dinner, great atmosphere. Great job Mama Mia’s! 🍝❤️ cannoli was amazing 🤤”

“I ordered this last night at work due to DoorDash having a $0 delivery free. I rate this place a 12/10 and I am now bringing my husband there today to try this amazing food. You guys are legit authentic. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Fantastic authentic Mexican cuisine. Friendly staff. If you haven’t tried it do yourself a favor and check it out!”

“After Chinese #1 closed in Cary, I had to find a new spot for Chinese food.

Overall, the staff are incredibly nice, the place is clean and the food was just meh. Believe it or not, the soup was the clear winner. Giant wontons in the soup, broth was great too. Had both egg drop and wonton soups. 5/5.

As someone that comes from the Northeast, it’s wild to me that every take out Chinese restaurant in Raleigh does bright yellow fried rice as if I was eating Cuban food… pork fried rice was 2/5.

The Sesame Chicken was all white meat. Great portion. Sauce was a bit tangy, but not bad. 4/5.

Overall, not bad by any means. If you need some Chinese take out, it’s one of the better options in town.”

“Just thought you might enjoy this photo from the Apex location”

“I love Mission Market. Jen is a fearless leader and she’s great with the customers. I’m there all the time and she knows my name and my drink. Their americano’s are perfectly made like you’re in Italy. It’s my favorite coffee shop. It’s the right way to start my day!!”

“I’m a satisfied Texan!! Every experience is a true reminder of the hometown food that I grew up on and enjoyed!! Very authentic ingredients and flavors made fresh daily!! Thanks for the great service & I’m looking forward to seeing y’all again soon!”

“We stopped here for the first time this morning for a quick breakfast. My husband and I ordered and were pleasantly surprised. The diner has a great retro look and a very large menu. Our service was perfection. Our waitress was delightful and very informative about the diner. We had a delicious breakfast for under 40. Very affordable and the food is great quality.”

“Best pizzeria on the planet and definitely in Wake County!!! Good people and Good food…please stop by today”

“I had the pleasure of stoping here for lunch today. I love Indian food and the chicken biryani was delicious. Huge portions and priced very well. Will definitely be back to try more amazing dishes they offer.”

“These are freshly made corn tortilla tacos! Super soft shell wrapping the crispy and moist chicken tacos. Every time I find real handmade tortilla taco, it’s usually a win!

A gem in Apex, NC if you like street tacos!”

“If you have not tried Johnny’s Pizza you are missing out. Their pizza is delicious and he is one of the kindest business owners I know. Definitely gets a 10 star from me”

“This past week, I had my first try of the cronuts from Paris Delight Apex. Hands down these were the most amazing things I have tried in a awhile. I tried the Irish cream cronut which was for me, the perfect amount of sweetness . My sister in-law got the Apple Carmel one which was a slice of heaven ❤️❤️. Oh, and don't forget their croissants 🥰 .. I felt like I was back in Europe.. I hope to see them one day cruising through the Wake Forest area..”

“We ordered take out today from New China Chef, Apex. The items that we ordered were egg drop soup, teriyaki chicken, shrimp with mixed vegetables and chicken with cashew nuts. All the items were very tasty!! I would highly recommend this restaurant.”

“If you’re craving authentic Indian flavors, this food truck is a must-visit! The food is delicious with great quality and taste. I Highly recommended for anyone looking for a flavorful Indian culinary experience!”

“La sopa de res es fabulosa”

“My family and I have been coming here for about six years now, and we’ve always had a great experience. The food is really good and affordable, and the service is awesome. The woman at the front always remembers me and is super sweet every time I pick up our order. It’s just a nice spot with good vibes, and we keep coming back and always recommend it to friends!”

I have been eating here for over a decade. The food is consistently good and the service is wonderful. Be sure to try the made in house hot sauces, you have to ask for them, but they are complimentary.”

“Great group of folks at this location! I have a very specific order I always place and they absolutely nail it every time. Buffalo Cheesesteak with extra buffalo sauce and heavy ranch....MAKE IT SLOPPY! And man....they kill it EVERY time. Love these guys! - This may be too sloppy for some...but it's perfect!”

“We had a nut milk based chocolate ice cream for my grand nephew who is 5 and currently is lactose intolerant. He loved his ice cream and wants to come back often.”

“Extensive menu, always good food and great staff!”

“Absolutely phenomenal food and service! (I’m OBSESSED with the Chili-fried diced chicken.)”

“Specials were listed at front window. I tried the enchilada suizas-really tasty. The staff were welcoming and pleasant. The food was all very good and the drinks were refilled without direction. My waiter was great. The robot was fun and the service was speedy.”

“Solid Chinese joint. You're going to want to take this home. It's not really all that appealing for eat-in.

All four dishes that we got here were great. I wish the egg rolls were a bit bigger but they were tasty as well

Pricing was normal. And the guy at the counter was nice enough but don't be looking to start up too many conversations with him.

I thought the sesame chicken and the garlic chicken were both really good. The pork lo mein was a really healthy amount of shredded pork in it. Can't remember the last time I was impressed with pork lo mein.”

“I had a chronic urticaria last year, ever since then i have be visiting the clinic and taking different kinds of medicine but yet no improvement. Few months ago it got worse, the inching becomes unbearable, sometimes it spread all over my body and it almost affected my lungs. One faithful day, Someone saw me when I was at the supermarket here in ATL when I was shopping for some groceries, she walked up to me, we had a nice chat where she told me her experience when she had the same problem, and she was able to get rid of it permanently with herbs from dr festy, I requested for the Dr's contact and i ordered the medicine because at that point I was willing to try anything just to get rid my chronic urticaria. It affected my social life negatively, I hardly associate with people and I became depressed. So after using the herbs I was completely cured and my life is back to normal. I'll keep creating awareness about dr festy's herbal medicine by sharing my story because I know how it feels battling with chronic urticaria. Are you struggling with herpes, autism, HIV, infertility, HPV, and chronic health conditions, including diabetes, certain stages of cancer, arthritis, and anxiety disorders contact Dr Festy for proper consultations.

My personal favorite is the "chicken-chicken" – it's juicy, flavorful, and pairs perfectly with their spicy harissa sauce. With plenty of options for all diets and a commitment to eco-friendly packaging, Mezeh delivers a delicious, healthy, and sustainable dining experience. Highly recommended!”

“I don’t come here often but when I did today, they didn’t have any BoRounds available and had to be cooked. I was waiting 5 min at the edge of the drive thru area and after about 10 dollars, the manager “Angelo”, came out with my food and apologized and provided me a reasonable credit for my wait. He acknowledged their delay and made sure I was pleased. This was done right in a day when most customer service is gone. Great job.”
