Restaurants in Carrboro

“I was not really in the mood for sushi, but a friend insisted. We started with cocktails. Perfection! We ordered two rolls to share as a starter. The Diablo roll and Saro were a magical combination of spicy and subtle. We then enjoyed an order of duck boa buns. The duck was tender and succulent, not too fatty. I ended with the city noodles with shrimp. Even though I was already pretty full, I couldn’t stop with the noodles! Comfort in a bowl is the only way to explain it. The balance of all the flavors coupled with fresh cilantro and green onions….so good!
Most importantly though was the whole vibe. We could actually hear each other talk and our waiter was so on point with the service. I came in feeling grumpy and I left feeling happy. Couldn’t ask for more!”

“Ate there a couple of times during graduation weekend. Food is very good. Service is very good.

Left my CC on table by accident. Didn't discover the loss for two days. Waitstaff saved the card for me (and destroyed at my phoned request after I cancelled it.) There are honest people left in this world. Gracias, amigos!”

“Seriously the best meal of my life. Brad offered exceptional and knowledgeable service. And the chefs tasting menu with wine pairings was exquisite. We will be back!”

“Best place for a cocktail after dinner”

“We had an absolutely wonderful experience at Iza. We had fantastic crafted cocktails and an appetizer of crispy Brussels sprouts which were the best we had ever had. Two of us have some allergy restrictions and they could not have been more amenable to creating us delicious and allergy safe foods. They even brought us out a few specially created dishes that were truly the best we had ever tasted. The customer service is impeccable, from the bartender to our server, to the owners making our dining experience one we will remember! We will be coming back to Iza very soon and highly recommend!! Loved it!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻”

“The Corned Beef Reuben with sauerkraut was amazing, as was the Jalapeno pierogi! We love right up the street and I can't wait to walk down to have drinks and do a trivia night 🩷”

“Honestly, really good. I’m usually disappointed by Mexican food in NC, but this food truck did not disappoint. Take it from me, I’m the child of a Mexican mother who makes really good food.
I got the asada burrito 🌯 and it was delicious. The workers were super nice, greeted me with a smile, and there was even a cute kitty 🥰 outside that I’m assuming lives there.
Highly recommend.”

“Amazing food and service. Love this place.”

Amazing house made gelato and sorbetto available in modest portions. Attentive service. Wonderful food and outstanding value. Highly recommended!”

“Carrburritos offers multiple vegan options. Looking for vegan options led us to this wonderful place. The special tofu burrito is excellent. We loved the pineapple salsa. The service is outstanding.
The outdoor dining area is intimate and charming.
There's even a wendigo bust on the wall.”

“Sushi was delicious!!! Great service, and nice atmosphere… will go again!”

“Good brews especially the stouts, watermelon wheat, and raspberry kombucha. Service is excellent. Good place to stop in, chill, and have a couple brews. There is outside seating and live music certain days.”

“This place has been my go-to bar for karaoke since the station closed. Everyone here is wonderful and amazing!

(Also I was there all day Christmas 2023 and I'm pretty damn sure no one died ❤️)”

“Great taco Truck! They have been a staple of Tobacco rd for the last year and change... Delicious!”

“I ordered several items and all were very good. Pleasant dining experience. Definitely will be returning!”

“I just picked up a little breakfast for a graduation gathering. Mini sweet potato biscuits and pastrami and pimento cheese. All were excellent, as usual! The out of town guests asked where this was from and plan to swing by on their way out of town if possible. The graduate asked if the pastrami could be part of her gift. I let her take the leftovers home. Thank you Neal‘s catering, you are always on point! #Nealsismybestcooking!”

“Best bar in Chapel Hill. Wide selection of beers and games, awesome staff, and just overall my favorite place to hang out.”

“This place is awesome for cheap, good pizza. The staff is super friendly, they even checked on me when they thought something was up (I was just checking out the menu). My girlfriend and I split a Genoa pizza with pepperoni and we were both stoked with our visit and can't wait to go back. ヽ( ・∀・)ﾉ”

“Fantastic Thai food. Excellent wait staff. Some of the best Thai food I’ve had.”

“Nice location with nice atmosphere”

“Kind staff, simple yet gourmet menu, have wine and beer, easy parking ❣️”

“Amazing customer service. Once you try it, you want to keep on coming back. It's like a better subway for the same price as subway. More food, better customer service, and dare I say a damn good sandwich.”

“Best little hang out in town. Great people and great owners. It has become my safe place and my home away from home.”

“Fathers Day Brunch fantastic food was excellent service was superb recommend highly”

“Carrboro’s best kept secret. Joe is a great bartender so the cocktails are on point and the food is too.”

“First visit this past week with my Brother...but amazing food! I will be back next time I'm in the area!”

“I’ve been in the neighborhood since 2021 and feel fairly qualified to call myself a local. In my experience, Hong Kong Chinese Restaurant has offered the same caliber of excellent food service as they did the first time I ever ordered from them. The people on the phone/at the front register are always so warm and friendly. The food itself is terrific! Cozy, hot, and filling, each bite bursting with flavor, and ready in almost no time. Can’t beat those prices either.”

“Have been coming to China Wok for almost 12 years and just now doing a review. I have never had a bad meal here! Do take out and have enjoyed their Beef Low Mein, Moo Goo Gai Pan, Fried Chicken Wings, General Tso’s Chicken, Shrimp dishes, Hot and Sour soup. Every order has been correct and cooked perfectly, every single time!

This time I got the Sesame Chicken with pork fried rice and shrimp roll. That chicken was so tender and flavorful! It was even better the second day for leftovers.

The staff has always been friendly on the phone and in person. The restaurant is clean and well stocked.

Can’t say enough about China Wok. My favorite Chinese restaurant here in town.”

“We stopped in before a show at Cats cradle and loved it. The smash burgers were delicious and my husband enjoyed the pretzel. I loved that they had house made seltzer water with syrups of your choice, and the vibes were great. Such a great causal spot. Would be great to come back and meet up with friends but unfortunately we are not from the area.”

“Decent Panaderia around this area. Selling a lot if Mexican Bakery. Nice for an option but it was not tasty. Has some fresh corn tortillas, it was in the cooler in front of cashier. Cons; most of the fresh stuff or fresh bread have no price tag on it, hard to know how much is it.”

“Really enjoy the food and the people. One of my favorites. Eat there several times each week.”

“I've passed this truck many times and finally stopped by the other day. DELICIOUS!!!! I am limiting my portions, so I only had the chicken tamales but WOW. Delicious. Full of flavor. I can't wait to try the other options! will definitely stop by again!”

“fast affordable delicious. I've been a customer for over 10 years! love this restaurant”

“My husband and I absolutely love Aidan's Pizza! We love that it is a small family business with great prices, excellent customer service, and high quality food. We have ordered many times and are always thoroughly satisfied with our meal. The Cheese Steak is delicious: perfectly cooked meat, toasty bread, cheesy, and well seasoned! We have tried the cheese sticks (the small is very generous!), the Kickin Tarheel Pizza, the Sweet Carolina Pizza, the Greek Goddess pizza (pictured), and the Caprese pizza. The pizzas are always fresh with generous toppings and delicious crust. Give Aidan's a try - you're missing out otherwise!”

“Great local hangout with great vibes”

“I love this kava bar. I moved up from Florida which is covered in kava bars, so I was looking for a place to make me feel at home like I did at my favorite kava bar in Florida, Krave gives me the same vibes. I absolutely love this place, the bartenders are absolutely amazing as are the other customers!! Absolutely amazing.”

“These courses need a definition.”

“best bite in chapel hill and carrboro! just go in person, you won’t regret the atmosphere and the affordable giant slices of pizza and knots

Parking: plenty

Kid-friendliness: place always has kids, but it’s so nice

Wheelchair accessibility: one of the guys will hold the door for you!”

“We had a birthday party for a friend here. The ambience was lovely, the food was fantastic, and our waiter, Sokol, was friendly and excellent! I would highly recommend Tandem for a special occasion event!”

“First timer here! Stopped in for some lunch. Got the chili cheeseburger and onion rings. The lunch combo was very reasonable despite current economic times.

Service was polite and quick. Didn't wait more than about 8 minutes from the time my order was taken. When I got home my onion rings were still plenty warm as was the burger....yall that burger was SO GOOD!

Will definitely be back to try the delicious looking wings! Wingman and crew, keep doing your thing!”

“Absolutely fantastic restaurant!!! One of my favorites since they opened!!!”

“Fabulous and yummy Friendly and fast!”

“Guy Fieri should put this place on Diners Drive-Ins & Dives. Don't let the strip mall storefront fool you. Nor the kids working the counter. I am an Italian & ex-patriot Brooklyn native & this is the closest thing to my Grandmother's Sunday dinner that I have ever found in North Carolina. The house salad was all romaine no iceburg. The balsamic vinaigrette tasted homemade. There were even artichoke hearts in it. The mozzarella seemed to be hand breaded. The marinara tasted like it had been on slow cook since dawn. The garlic knots were very real. The penne was al dente & they seemed to give me a whole box of it. There was fresh shaved romano & fresh basil on top. It was like going back in time to the old neighborhood. My Southern wife special ordered the cheese lasagna with pesto & they even accommodated that unusual request. We did not have the pizza but for an authentic Sunday dinner it's the real thing. I wish they were not sold out of tiramisu I'm sure it's great too. If eggplant parmesan was on the menu it would be even better. The portions were so big we took half of it home in a box. Fresh sunflowers on the outdoor tables a very nice touch too. MOLTO BENNE!”
