“If you are planning a special occasion or just want a night out at a wonderful restaurant, I have a bit of advice for you. Go to Chef Palette! This establishment has got it together. The atmosphere is just lovely. We planned our son and future daughter-in-law's rehearsal dinner from afar, way far.....Michigan. As stressful as that could have been, Kathie did everything to ease our stress. She calmed this Momma's heart and executed everything to a "T". The appetizer table was not only displayed beautifully, it was YUMMY! The salad, main entrees and dessert did not disappoint. But most of all, the staff was most kind and extremely professional. We cannot thank Kathie and the staff at Chef Palette enough for the wonderful and memorable evening we shared together. GO TO CHEF's PALETTE!“

“Amazing food and great service“

“Very nice workers and the coffee is great too.“

“We eat here at least once a month and are always impressed, but this time we had Yasmine as our server. She went so far above and beyond, we will be hoping she is there everytime we come.

Everything came out fast even though the restaurant was absolutely slammed for Sunday brunch. She anticipated every need and even made my burger better (shout out avocado on the burger and one of each sauce).

Could not have asked for a better server or experience.“

“Great Food. Excellent Host.“

“Awesome food, great environment to watch Brazilian sports! Also the people are phenomenal. Met a lifetime friend here!“

“Spent the day exploring downtown Cary and came across this little bistro! Outside dining was great! Amazing food and friendly service! Sophia, my waitress was fantastic! Very friendly and attentive! The cocktail “The Butterfly Effect “ is just as good as it is pretty! The baked Brie and arugula/beet salad was delicious! Great find in Cary for sure!“

“Love the atmosphere! Great service, great food and drinks 🍻“

“Visiting from Buffalo NY with my cousin Beth and I must say the food and service was outstanding! I ordered the homemade pasta with a red cream sauce which was to die for. Even the bread is unbelievably delicious! All 4 of us loved the entire evening of delicious food and wonderful service. I wish Buffalo offered such fabulous food and experience!!!“

“Every time I visit the employees couldn’t be more helpful and polite , the ice cream is my families favorite , their ice cream cakes are out of this world delicious 😍“

“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!!“

“First time visit and it was great. Different flavors of milkshakes and I wanted to try the new pumpkin pie shake. That first sip was phenomenal. Tasted like a solid pumpkin pie slice, but after getting halfway thru, there was something that was very overpowering. Almost as if it went from pumpkin pie to ginger snaps. Which isn’t bad, but I’m more of a pumpkin pie guy. Staff was friendly and engaging. And the strawberry shortcake sundae…great! Fresh strawberries, pieces of fluffy cake and ice cream. Would definitely head back.“

“This place has the best ice cream. Unfortunately, it does not have the best employees. Every single time I’ve been there in the last two years, my order has been wrong. Stopped by and ordered two sundaes tonight. Both of them had the wrong flavors in them. Like, not even close. We ended up throwing them away. Was going to complain but the kid that made them was running the register so I figured what’s the point. So, great ice cream when you get what you order. I’ve kind of forgotten what that’s like but I’m still recommending them.“

“Alix was great you need to meet her. She makes the place“

“We had a wonderful morning at Java Jive. We got breakfast pastries, coffee, and iced tea and spent a few hours working. It did get a bit noisy with a few groups meeting and talking, but that is not abnormal for coffee shops. It is relatively small, with small tables for 2 people and a single round table that seats up to 4. The coffee and pastry was good, and they have art for sale on the walls.“

“Love Love LOVE!! my granddaughter and I make this a reoccurring event. We love to enjoy SoBol together. Thank you Jenny!“

“My wife has been here multiple times but it was my first experience here. My mind was focused on the ribs since that’s the only thing I had ever tasted from the restaurant. We arrived and ordered the buffalo shrimp poppers and crispy chicken and the appetizers were amazing. We both ordered froze’s which were delicious. The main dish we wanted was unavailable but they made the experience worthwhile. I would definitely recommend this place. The service is amazing and we could not have been happier with our meal experience. Special shout out to Freddie, Patrick, Nicky (or Nikki) for helping us during our time there!“

“Hazy IPA was amazing, definitely will be back.“

“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.“

“Love, Love, Love this brewery! Their beers are fantastic. The atmosphere is fun and great for fellowship. I've been during weeknights and weekends and always a great choice. Music bingo is fun and the food trucks are great. Parking can be tight at times, but I've always been able to find a spot!“

“We were in the restaurant on 4/10 and Liz B was our waitress. She was the bubbliest, friendliest waitress and made sure we were taken care of. My husband has high standards for waitresses and as we were leaving he said "she was the best waitress I have had in a long time!" That is a huge comment within itself. Thanks for a great experience Liz B!!“

“The Sofi's grill and bar offers an inviting atmosphere with delicious, perfectly cooked dishes. The drinks menu is diverse and refreshing, and the staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, making every visit a pleasure. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a great time.“

“Loved the build your own salad...pleasant atmosphere, staff was friendly...“

“family went a few days ago for the very 1st time. Upon entering the hostess sat us at a table. There wasn't much of a crowd.and we did not have to wait. Once seated NOT.1 person came.to.our table to greet us, give water,etc. We waited over 10 mins and STILL no service. We got up and exited. We will never come back to this establishment and will NOT recommend either. Disappointed.“

“Really good bagels but nearly $6 for a bagel with cream cheese! I’ve been 3 times and it’s always consistent— the S&P bagel is so good! Breakfast sandwiches are delicious but over $10! I’m from CA and even in San Francisco you’d be hard pressed to find a bagel that’s $6– maybe a breakfast sandwich but not a bagel with cream cheese. The cream cheese is DELICIOUS! Chewy bagels. The two young women I’ve seen at the register have been unfriendly and somewhat cranky each time I come in.“

“Great food, great customer service, great restaurant!“

“Jessica at T-Mobile recommended Chuy's to us. Everyone, especially our server, James, was great. We both enjoyed the food and atmosphere as well. Will be there again, soon.“

“This was some of the best frozen custard I have ever had! The service was also amazing, especially Shane who took our order! He was kind, helpful, funny, and patient. The prices were not too expensive, the quality was impeccable, and the cleanliness and service were top notch. Definitely recommend getting a sweet treat here!“

“Ordered a drink that came out wrong, explained it so I could order something different as it wasn't tasting right at all. Still get charged for the old drink, infact my drink points I redeemed didn't even get accounted for. Terrible service. They won't remake your drink either, even if it's clearly wrong. don't recommend cary location its only gotten worse.“

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

“This is the best pizza I’ve ever had!! I traveled from Greenville and it was more than worth the drive!!“

“Awesome place to go and great selection of beer!“

“I have been a die hard fan of Biryani Maxx for the last 5 years. Their chicken shish kebab is hands down the BEST chicken shish kebab ever. Along with their green chutney? Ughhhh even my husband who does not prefer Indian food couldn’t stop eating it. Grab yourself some garlic naan and dig in. One plate is good for two people for lunch with bread on the side. Staff was really friendly and place was clean. Highly recommend! Their mango lassi is also bombbb.“

“Everything was awesome as always!!!
Thank you 감사합니다
The Owner Jae is really mindful about family with kids . He will make sure you get a seat that will work for you.
His welcoming smile will melt your worry away, so is the Servant Ms.Kim that I call Mommy in my heart is the best.
Everyone is just purely Amazing 😃😃“

“Amazing crepes and totally friendly staff.“

“One of my favorite burger spots in the area. Corbett's is very affordable for the quality, and the variety of sauces and burger options are outstanding. The fries always taste fresh, and I have never had a disappointing experience here.“

“Great food and service. The atmosphere is cool too.“

“I frequent the Chick-fil-A brand all of over the country and this is my children go to place for dinner. Tonight I went to your location in Cary. First of all the attendees outside aren’t as polite as the used to be they were concerned with group conversation not serving the customers. When I pulled up the cashier, said,”What can I get you”, no hey welcome to Chick-fil-A how may I serve you. I was shocked. I asked for two 12 counts of freshly cooked nuggets. I put an emphasis on fresh. I paid, drove to get my receipt and reiterated I wanted them fresh to that attendee. I got to window and I reiterated again to the young lady who had her hair cut very close, she said, “yes sir promise”. This was an entire lie and disappointment. This is the 2nd bad experience with this particular store. I have included the pictures in the email. After speaking to Caroline she has promised to give our family a night on her, but she never asked me my name, my phone number or asked when I was planning to come back. Totally disappointed.“

“We are Brixx regulars, but I was very disappointed in the Italian meatballs. They are highly processed and taste terrible! I used to love the meatballs with polenta so I thought I’d try these. I’m going back to wings or a salad. Very disappointed.“

“I love our Holly springs Starbucks but the new renovation made the inside much smaller and really only a few tables to sit at other than outside. It gets very crowded during the rush hours 😕 so when I can I order ahead on the app. It's always ready when I get there . No waiting just grab and go. They are always polite and friendly there .“

“Delicious beer & great staff!!“

“Recomendado 100% todo muy rico,☕️🍽🍺🍻“

“I can't sing Chettinad Anjappar Party Catering's praises enough! At the outset, want to sincerely thank you for being so accommodating at such short notice and allowing we to rent your banquet space for last evening.. Special thank you to, Om Prakash, for his immediate responses (and patience!) and the fact that his entire team Ragan, Parasuram, and the rest of the crew are so genuine and caring. The food was absolutely delicious and the service you provide was outstanding, that too with a smile till the end. Thank you Anjappar Restaurant for making my husband’s 40th surprise birthday celebrations a grand success!!! We couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate this milestone birthday of his. It has been a pleasure to do business with you and will knock your doors again & again :)!“

“Our favorite Chic-fil-A ever. We seek out Chic-fil-A restaurants whenever we travel. None have compared to the friendly, personable and welcoming staff this location has. Consistently great food and excellent customer service. Our go-to place for fast food and the friendliest staff.“

“Ask the great Staff about the Bakery across the street and they highly recommended it and the scones. I got some sweet tooth treats and a french sandwich and every was delicious. the scones are amazing. SHOUTOUT to Steven! I will be back! #lafarmbakery“

“This place is the absolute best!! Aside from the fact the food was delicious and to our table so extremely fast, the staff were terrific! The atmosphere was relaxing, prices great! It's truly worth the drive. I can't wait to get a chance to come back!“

“It feels the same as when it was called Golden Pig, it could be a bit upgraded, food was real tasty, the appetizer was brought to us at the same time as the main dishes, I lend the fact that we were not rushed out and could have a good conversation with my family. We were not asked whether we wanted something more, the waiter just came to our table and handled the bill over to us that was that.“

“Loved it all!!!! Can’t wait to return“
