“Visited last night and loved the venue! Beautiful atmosphere and friendly staff. Live music was awesome with Sayer McShane. Patio and inside seating with glass walls that open for an inside outside feel. Highly recommend!!“

“Great wine bar with live music and friendly bartenders.“

“First time dining here last night...great friendly staff, great atmosphere, and probably a Top 5 meal that I have ever had! THIS PLACE IS A GEM! You can absolutely tell it's local and fresh (and I normally think that's BS). Started with the Crispy Brussels Sprouts and then the Homage to the Pig and my wife got the Shrimp Pasta. Incredible (chef's kiss). Going back for sure!“

“Great beer and even better vibes. Super cool collection of regulars always down for a fun conversation and very friend bartenders. Solid selection of drinks both on tap and in the fridge. I’ll definitely be making this a regular Raleigh stop in the future!“

“Although I have enjoyed all that I tried at this establishment the scones and tea are what love most. They are often extremely busy on the weekends and evenings so the volume can climb however it a historical landmark so that is understandable. This is a tea room although not a traditional tea room so go try it out and enjoy the experience .“

“I love the staff and owners at Chatham St. They provide such excellent service and selection to all guests and are always friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend them.“

“We love this place because it’s beautiful. The kids play at the nest and we can walk over to the Bark Bar to get a beverage. They had really revived the downtown Cary area to be a magical place for everyone. There are lots of nonalcoholic beverages also available.“

“The owner and team members are so personable and awesome! Great neighborhood hang out.“

“First tried this gem a few weeks ago and then went tonight and both times the service and food was amazing! The staff gave the best recommendations and they even made an espresso martini (wasn’t on the menu) but wanted to see if we’d like it the way the made it and one of the BEST ever. The butter chicken is my favorite!“

“Nothing beats the comfort and quality of Bella Monica food! I first dined here in college when I was looking for some eggplant parmesan - since that day 20 years later it’s still my favorite Italian restaurant in Raleigh! Btw their eggplant parmesan uses in house ROASTED eggplant not fried and I cannot explain how delicious it is. I’ve likely tried everything on the menu by this point and not once have I been disappointed.“

“Our bartender, Donovan, is The Best! Awesome service and truly cares for the patrons. Because of him, we WILL be back!!“

“Cannot recommend Open Bottle more highly. A neighborhood gem and an absolute, complete pleasure, one I plan on repeating often.

Stopped by Open Bottle after work on St. Patrick’s Day in a murderous mood after a hellish day at work. I was ready to sit and brood alone and, because it was empty, felt I’d be able to indulge in an angry sulk.

Not so. The bartender was not just efficient but engaging and before I knew it I had forgotten whatever I was stressed out about when I arrived and ended leaving after a few beers and a rough of pool a different person.

If you’re the type of person who leaves work and storms into the house still mentally stressed, stop in Open Bottle on your way home and have a friendly beer or two. It’s the perfect place to leave the office at behind and the walk into your home as happy as your family.“

“Very good food, great wine selection, and enjoyable tasting flights. The ambiance was lovely and made for a nice outing.

Service was a bit inconsistent during our visit. We didn’t see our waitress very often, and one interaction felt less welcoming than expected when we asked a question about the menu. That said, the food, wine, and atmosphere were the highlights, and overall we enjoyed the experience. We’d consider returning.“

“Great place with fun diner atmosphere and perfect for work gathering as not too crowded during a week night and was able to get a large table last minute. Food were tasty and the pasta has large portions. Price is definitely not low but it tasted good which is more important either way nice drinks and good ambiance ☺️“
