“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!“

“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.“

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

“Beautiful setting as it gets dark and outside lights come on. Hadxwibe fkights, 3 -2 oz glasses and shared the hummus and pear Gorgonzola flatbread. Plenty for the 2 of us (both women). Wine pours could be a bit more generous but a pretty good value.“

“I recently visited Mirchi's Indian restaurant in Cary for lunch with a friend and was so impressed. The food was flavorful, fresh, and perfectly spiced—every dish we tried was a standout. The service was warm and attentive, and the atmosphere felt welcoming and relaxed. A true gem for authentic Indian cuisine in the Triangle. I’ll definitely be back!“

“Great place. Good wine, nice atmosphere“

“We had such an amazing time at Red Line in Raleigh! The atmosphere is relaxed but still full of energy — the perfect spot to unwind and have fun with friends. The owner is a genuinely great guy who goes above and beyond to make sure everyone feels welcome. Service was spot-on, the drinks were fantastic, and the whole vibe just made the night even better. Definitely one of our new favorite bars in the city!“

“Great food, cocktails & service!“

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

“We ordered the Christmas take home Meal and it was superb!! Everyone raved about the freshness. The Prime Rib was delicious and the vegetables were very tasty and the rolls and pies were the best! We will be ordering for all the Holidays meals in 2025!“

“I planned a post funeral for the attendees who traveled to Raleigh from out of town. Since the time was for 3 PM on a Tuesday afternoon we got the area that can also be sectioned off from the rest of the restaurant, although in our case it was not. It did not need to sectioned off as the restaurant was not busy at this time. Lesan was our server and he was great. Energetic, friendly, quick with a smile and a master of the menu details. Our group was a mixture of different age groups but we love to talk and laugh. Lesan blended in seamlessly.“

“What a wonderful experience! Delicious food! Highly recommend the whipped sheep’s cheese , the gambas al ajillo, and the chicken pimientos!!!!“

“Ate here this week for the first time. The cocktails at the bar were great! The pasta dishes were delicious and the service was excellent! Will be back!“

“Love HH and they always have a good vibe and great selection of craft beers!
Love how it feels like a great spot for the residents in the area too, but on trivia and event nights parking is very limited but that’s not a negative just a heads up!!“

“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 .“

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

“Great bourbon selection including vintage whiskey. The craft cocktails are amazing! Beautiful and masculine decor!“

“This is one of the coziest scenes I have experienced here in North Carolina. I've lived here for aomost 5 years! The people and the vibe are extremely relaxed. Such a chill place with great beer( I am not a beer drinker bit I really like theirs!!!) They bring in great vendors for a variety of food on Thursdays and the service from the bartender, Gabz is super fun behind the bar. PS... bring your dog and kids! Totally family friendly! Great crowd!!“

“Had a great experience at Capital Grille this weekend for my son’s bday. They greeted us upon entry and immediately said happy birthday to my son, who loved it. Then the table was decorated and had a card from the restaurant for him. Nice little touches that made it special for him. The service was great, David and team took good care of us throughout the night. He even made sure the meals came out quick as we were trying to make the football game that night.“

“You can't stop eating even if you're full. That happened to me when I had dinner there. They gave us a great service, too.“

“Man I bought some food today from this truck and I swear I haven’t had anything like this since I moved up here 6 years ago. Being from the Caribbean it’s hard finding authentic Caribbean food and this is top tier. 10/10“

“We really enjoyed our food and will definitely return for more!“

“Best bottle shop in the Triangle!!! According to my boyfriend, Bottle Revolution has amazing selection of beer, wine and mead. As someone who does not drink alcohol, I LOVE that Bottle Revolution has an EXCELLENT variety of nonalcoholic options for me . I truly appreciate their inclusivity for us non drinkers. They always having a variety of cool options for me to choose from too!“

“Great selection of wine and beer. Nice atmosphere for those seeking to sit, drink and have conversation. Weekends, live music, usually a duo or trio. VERY nice to be able to sit outside and music will be outside as well in good weather. Russ is really swell and you will enjoy yourself. Children and dogs are more than welcome.“

“Wow! This was amazing! I’ve been chasing a quiche as good as one I had in Colmar, France years ago and this was it!!! I will dream of this quiche. Cannot recommend enough! Also had the best iced tea I’ve ever had at a restaurant. My husband got the French Toast and said it was amazing as well! The service was great, the restaurant was a great atmosphere and the accommodation for children was nice! We will be back many times!“

“🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Margaux’s in Raleigh dazzled me! The outdoor seating set the perfect vibe, and my waiter Bill was phenomenal—attentive, engaging, and professional, just like the whole staff. Every plate was art, every bite divine, and that key lime pie? Pure transcendence. Effervescent culinary journey with next-level flavors—Perfect kickoff to my Labor Day weekend. I’d recommend it in a heartbeat!“

“These guys are amazing. Fabrice knows my wine style better than I do. He is very knowledgeable. Always willing to help. Carpenters is a great place. All people are welcome here. The selection is off the charts. I look forward to Friday wine tasting. I highly recommend!“

“The service was phenomenal, exceeding all expectations. Amber was so personable and friendly as our server. They even surprised us with a happy anniversary card and gift of chocolates.“

“food is kinda mid but the dinning room interior is quite the experience! micheal was our server and he killed it despite it seeming like a very bustling night. several private parties were happening on the saturday we visited which likely contributed to the echoing environment. Overall though we had a great time. The seating is probably one of my favorite things about this place! Highly recommend the moroccan lemon cake and the brussel sprout salad.“

“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.“

“Thanks so much for the free steak dinner on Veteran's Day for my husband (Air Force Veteran). He looks forward to it every year. Our food was AMAZING and our waitress was kind and accommodating! It was a quite busy when we walked in but the hostess did a wonderful job of getting us seated quickly and managing the masses! We will definitely be back!“

“We decided to pop in Good Day Good Night for an after dinner drink. There were 5 of us. We each ordered 1 drink and one person ordered dessert. Her coffee finally arrived, after she finished her dessert. The rest of us had to wait over 30min for our drink. I ordered a White Russian. It was so iced down, the ice had melted and the drink just watery whatever. Our server just acted like we were bothering him, each time we asked about the status of our drink order. My drink was the only mixed drink. The others were a shot of bourbon, and 3 decafs (the coffee was already made) Next time we want to stop somewhere for an after dinner drink, it won't be here.“

“I had an awesome time earlier this week celebrating a good friend's 25th birthday here. We had the rooftop reserved (both inside and outside). The supervisor Mac and the bartenders Greyson and Brittany were AWESOME! They helped to set the place for the reservation. They catered to the large volume and drink orders. They even made a desert with candles last minute as we sang "Happy Birthday!" The staff here definitely helped to make the night memorable and fun. I did not personally try the food but friends said that it was great! Service and atmosphere were both 10/10.“

“I had an exceptional dining experience at Firebird Woodfire Grill in Village Market Place, Morrisville, during a special daddy-daughter date night. The food was outstanding and the atmosphere provided exactly the relaxing ambiance we were hoping for.

What truly elevated our evening was our server, CT. He's easily one of the best servers I've encountered at any restaurant. From the moment we sat down, CT demonstrated the kind of attentiveness that's rare to find - he anticipated our needs without being intrusive, made excellent recommendations that were spot-on for our tastes, and ensured our drinks were never empty.

What set CT apart was his warm, inviting presence. He didn't just take our order and deliver food; he enhanced the entire experience with his genuine hospitality and engaging personality. He made both my daughter and me feel welcomed and valued as guests, which is something you can't teach - it's just who he is as a person.

The combination of delicious food, a welcoming atmosphere, and CT's exceptional and world-class service made this dinner one we'll remember.“
