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

“Amazing food and great service“

“The food was great, service once seated was quick, and the waitress was so nice. I got avocado toast, but the side of grits and the biscuit with apple butter were the stars of the show. The wait was pretty long and there wasn't really anywhere to keep place in line except outside and our names weren't taken down. We had a few new arrivals seated before us by just walking in at the right time. It was a little expensive and also none of the salt shakers worked properly. I would say get what they are known for ( grits and biscuits ) and don't stray too far from the beaten path and you'll have a great experience!“

“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!!“

“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!“

“Great Food. Excellent Host.“

“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!“

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

“Great place to stop when walking around Downtown Cary. Parking is of course somewhat difficult to find at times - there are spaces behind the building, where from there you can just walk around.

Taste has always been amazing every time I have been. Service is friendly, and the wait is not long. Probably my favorite milkshake spot in all of NC.“

“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 😍“

“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.“

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

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

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

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

“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!“

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

“My wife and I checked out this brewery last weekend and it was awesome! Tons of space for seating, great beer, and they even had a matcha stand out front where my wife got her caffeine fix. The food truck was fantastic as well! Already planning our trip back.“

“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!!“

“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.“

“I made my first visit to Sophie’s for the 90s R&B paint and sip event and am looking forward to returning! I was immediately welcomed by staff and a very nicely decorated and cozy environment. The bar is beautiful and there are lots of windows. There was a special menu for the event but the variety was great and I was pleasantly surprised by the incredibly flavorful salmon on a bun with a generous helping of delicious fries. The servers were very busy, but maintained great interaction with the customers. Highly recommend!“

“Very cute coffee shop. I like the relaxed vibe inside and there's patio tables outside as well where they allow dogs it looks like. The menu is huge with a lot of options. The price for a latte was consistent with everywhere around here.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Extremely friendly staff, happy environment. Food was amazing 🙂‍↕️“

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

“Amazing crepes and totally friendly staff.“

“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.“

“The absolute best custard ice cream there is!! I highly recommend their sugar free vanilla. It is so extremely tasty that you would never expect it to be sugar free. Also, very friendly customer service. I have to give a shout out to Jenna today at the Garner location. Apparently it was only her second day and she was killing it!! The weather was perfect for an ice cream treat this afternoon and it was quite busy. Jenna was as friendly as could be and she was extremely fast with having to both take orders, take payment and fulfill the orders. Jenna is a rock star and did an excellent job representing Goodberry’s in the very best way.“

“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.“

“First time visiting. I really liked the vibe - great variety of beer offerings and wine is decent too. They offer Hopfly and that’s rare to see on a menus.
I think the space would be more inviting if they added some sound buffers. The concrete floors and polished decor is visually appealing but doesn’t provide any noise absorption. We had to strain to carry on conversation.“

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

“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 :)!“

“Can I suggest getting shirts made that say “once you go square no others compare” Compliments of my wife we just want free pizza for the idea no royalties needed.“

“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.“

“I had lunch today at in Cary, NC, and it was an amazing experience. I ordered the biryani, and it was one of the best I've had in the Triangle area. The rice was perfectly cooked, fragrant, and packed with authentic spices, while the chicken was tender, juicy, and full of flavor. Every bite tasted fresh and delicious.

The portion size was generous and definitely worth the price. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and made sure everything was served quickly. The restaurant was clean, comfortable, and had a pleasant atmosphere.

If you're craving authentic Hyderabadi-style biryani or flavorful Indian food, I highly recommend Biryani Maxx in Cary. I'll definitely be coming back to try more dishes from the menu. Highly recommended for anyone looking for great Indian food in the area!“

“We took some folks here over the weekend and had a great time!! The employees were friendly, helpful and full of hospitality. We had hot dogs and BLT’s—- delicious and priced perfectly for quality and portion—- very good value!!! We will be back for sure!!“

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

“My go to for wings and burgers! The staff is always friendly and the atmosphere is always a quality tavern feel! Love you guys!“

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

“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.“

“Delicious beer & great staff!!“

“I work remote and travel around the area daily so I visit Starbucks every business day and also on Saturdays. This one on Kildaire Farm Road has always proven the best because it is most consistent in taste, has very professional staff, and has reasonable wait times. The dining area is also cleaned regularly as are the windows, so you can asee all the beautiful crape myrtle trees blooming outside. And the restrooms are clean.

They have a nice patio. Only issue is their WiFi has been very slow lately.

Kudos to the manager and team, they are a doing a great job. Keep up the good work - your customers definitely notice and appreciate your talents.“

“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!“

“Really good food. Always fresh and they don’t cook it till you order. Always hot.“
