Some of the best food in Chapel hill, lived in New Orleans for years and nowhere outside of NO gets it as right as they do here. Prices are excellent

I love Rougarou! All the food is delicious—I especially love the gumbo. Great ambiance and friendly bar service. Definitely underrated but a treasure in downtown Chapel Hill. They also have an awesome lunch special!

Parking: The Wallace Deck is right across the street and always has spots available.

We wanted to try Imbibe and sample some Cajun food. I ordered a half Mufeletta and my partner in crime, an oyster Po Boy. And since I hadn't had a cheese curd in 20 years, I had to order them as well.

Probably no surprise, it was a lot of food. The "half" Mufeletta was huge! I ended up only eating half of the half. It was quite good, certainly something different for me. My wife thought her Po Boy was fantastic. I had a bite and it was super good. The cheese curds were as good as I remembered.

So, Imbibe was a nice experience. I'll look forward to visiting again and trying some different items from the menu.

Rougarou and Zog’s upstairs are more than a great restaurant/bar. They are a much-loved third space. Come here for great food, reasonably priced cocktails, and a bit of community. From Trivia Night to Stand Up Comedy to Jazz Brunch, there’s always something fun going on at Rougarou.

Great food! Really enjoyed everything I ordered and will be eating here frequently. Crazy amazing softshell crab, great fried oysters, love the pickles and the potato salad was wonderful. This is the real deal for great fresh seafood with great flavors located right here in CH.

Go forth & IMBIBE.

Favorite place for dinner! The food is great and fresh and an excellent $ value. My gf loves all the different drinks offered and I’m glad to enjoy a cream soda during jazz night. Great for game nights too! I always bring out of town visitors here to show them a good time!Always get the cheese curds!

Stopped by Rougarou for lunch today, I was impressed. Great food, great service, and great prices. Got a PoBoy and potato salad, yum! In my younger years I worked in southern Louisiana and this place brought back memories. Looking forward to going back to Rougarou soon to try out some of the other menu items!
