“Recently visited this location for a team building activity. Our instructor was knowledgeable, engaging, and made sure everyone in our group felt comfortable. They gave us tips on technique, safety, and helped us organize a tournament. Highly recommended for any organization or group of friends looking for a unique and competitive experience!”

“Lime & Lemon Indian Grill is our go-to spot for all our catering needs! We had catering done this past weekend, and the food was absolutely incredible! The naans were super soft, the flavors were spot-on, and the service was top-notch from beginning to end. The food was from the Chapel Hill location. They also accommodated our dietary restrictions, like no onion or garlic, and they nailed it! They arrived on time and were super well-prepared! They also took care of all the details throughout the event and helped with everything towards the end. It was a huge relief to know that we could trust someone from start to finish. I highly recommend Lime and Lemon for all your catering needs. Ravi, thank you for always providing excellent service and amazing food.”

Louisiana dishes at its best here In Durham - yes the Fried Catfish, red beans & rice might be a tad better with Andouille Sausage rather than ham but won’t quibble! Yum shrimp and grits. Beignets and key lime pie - how better to end a meal. Good selection of beer and masterful prepared SAZERAC! Sound level inside - tad loud, only negative. Thank you Manager Dana for our gift of Key Lime and more for guiding well trained, Attentive, skilled staff who advised, directed us in the menu and served well. Highly recommend Seraphine!”

“The food was amazing and the service superb!! Definitely recommend for an amazing brunch!”

“It’s rare to find a restaurant that excels in every way, but Parizade truly hit it out of the park! From the warm welcome by my server, Raymond, the exceptional manager, Zhait Ponce and the entire waitstaff, made me feel like family from the moment I walked in. The salmon, potatoes, and unique drink Zhait made me were unforgettable. And the chocolate cake?! To die for! Parizade is now a favorite, and I’ll definitely be bringing more friends and family to experience it. Thank you, Zhait and the Parizade crew, for a perfect dining experience!”

His view on reviews is simple – Taste, Presentation, and Service. He believes telling the reader a positive and negative unbiased look at the restaurant is essential. - SERVICE: Justin was just amazing, and the rest of the staff worked as a team to escalate the level of attention customers would expect in a restaurant. His knowledge of the menu and ability to articulate your experience with the meals truly was outstanding. His attention to the customer and quick follow-through make him a value for his restaurant. - STARTERS: Crispy Eggplant - This is a true elevation of the humble eggplant to new heights with their exquisite Crispy Fried Eggplant topped with Gorgonzola Dolce and Fresh Tomatoes. The crispy eggplant provides a satisfying crunch, while the creamy gorgonzola dolce lends a luxurious richness that melts in the mouth. The sweetness of the fresh tomatoes balances the savory notes, creating a harmonious union of tastes that is both comforting and sophisticated. The chef artfully balanced contrasting flavors and textures to create an unforgettable appetizer. - MAIN ENTREES Roasted Lady Edison Pork Loin with Speck Ham, Campo Cheese, and Braised Ramps (this was a seasonal special) Diners will find that this dish takes you on a gastronomic journey with their exquisite Roasted Lady Edison Pork Loin. This dish harmoniously blends premium ingredients to create a symphony of flavors. Each component is meticulously crafted to perfection, from the tender pork loin to the savory speck ham, creamy Campo cheese, and aromatic braised ramps, resulting in a culinary masterpiece that delights the senses. The succulent Lady Edison pork loin, roasted to perfection, boasts a rich depth of flavor complemented by the speck ham's smoky notes. The Campo cheese adds a creamy indulgence, while the braised ramps infuse the dish with a delicate sweetness and earthy aroma. Together, these ingredients create a symphony of flavors that dance across the palate with each mouthful. – Feedback: It was a little salty. I think with the ham on the dish, you could cut back on the seasoning of the pork and have a better balance. But overall, exceptional. - Hand Cut Noodles, Lady Edison Pork Ragu, and Parmigiano. The art of pasta reaches new heights with their homemade Hand Cut Noodles (wide noodles), served in a luscious Lady Edison Pork Ragu and crowned with a generous sprinkle of Parmigiano. This dish epitomizes the essence of comfort food, offering a soul-warming experience that satisfies both palate and spirit. The hand-cut noodles, with their delicate texture and satisfying chewiness, provide the perfect canvas for the robust flavors of the Lady Edison pork ragu. Slow-cooked to perfection, the ragu boasts layers of depth and complexity, with tender shreds of pork melding seamlessly with aromatic herbs and spices. The Parmigiano adds a salty richness that ties the dish together, creating a symphony of comforting and indulgent flavors. – Feedback: I'm not 100% a fan of their red sauce. I asked for a side of the red sauce to better understand the base sauce. It was a little water, almost tasting watered down, lighter in color – not the rich red that one would expect, and it was a bit too bland - DESSERT There are no words. Their homemade class chocolate chip cannolis and biscotti was a true end to a fantastic meal.”

“Food was good, service was good, and the one person cook Nick was absoluely AMAZING. They was short staff; but you could not tell because the service was so good. I love Waffle House and this is the only one me and my family go to in Goose Creek.”

McDisaster: A Tale of Missing Nuggets and Broken Dreams

You know, I thought I was just ordering dinner, but what I really got was a front-row seat to the theater of fast-food failure.

The so-called "Meal"? Oh, it was anything but. No fries, no nuggets, no sauces—just a sad little box of regret. It was less of a meal and more of a scavenger hunt where the prize was nothing.

And the McFlurry? Let’s just say it was more McPuddle. It melted faster than my faith in humanity, which is impressive considering how quickly McDonald's ice cream machines usually break in the first place.

But the real kicker? The sheer confidence with which this incomplete mess was handed over, as if I wouldn’t notice half my food was missing. I’ve seen more effort put into an “I’m sorry” text from a flaky friend.

McDonald's, I don’t expect fine dining, but I do expect the food I paid for. If you need help remembering that fries go with the meal, maybe hire a food coach or a motivational speaker—someone, anyone—to inspire basic competence.

To FUTURE CUSTOMERS: Check your bags. Check them like you're defusing a bomb, because chances are, something’s missing.”

“My Pre-Birthday Breakfast was awesome. Dorian was my server and on point, quick and respectful.

Parking: Handicap parking is right at the door.”

“Amazing food and friendly people! 10/10 recommended”

“Best goat vindaloo i’ve ever tasted”

“please lose the QR menus. I agree with the baby boomers this is a terrible way to have menus. I literally want to just give you money for food and yall are making it very difficult. its 100 degrees outside, open your dining room already.”

“Best sandwich in town, I seriously crave The Uncle Primo's.”

“Just WOW! Man oh man I’m a Pizza Lover through and through and this has to be the best pizza I’ve had in a decade! So great! This is the REAL DEAL!”

“I just had my BEST birthday cake EVER for my 76th birthday! Thank you, Shayda! You clearly love what you do, and I know love making people happy! COUNT ME IN! Grandma Pam C”

“We love this place! Come here every time we pick up or bring back our NCSSM student. Today, she graduated and we made sure to visit one more time before we head home to NE NC for the summer (don’t worry, we’ll be back - go Tar Heels)!!! Look what the sweet owners did for her?! Thank you ❤️”

“We stopped by on a whim headed to dinner for my daughter's birthday. We were greeted with a very warm welcome from the staff and the atmosphere was very nice. The selection was more than I expected, they had exactly what we needed for our small party. We got an assortment of cupcakes and a slice of cake that look absolutely amazing. We never expected to walk in and find ready made cakes. in fact when my daughter asked about it, i told her it was a fake display cake - I was so shocked that it was indeed a strawberry shortcake. We left with the 6 cupcakes, 1 slice of cake and that absolutely beautiful cake. Not only was the cake beautiful, it tasted just amazing as it looked. We shared a piece with our server at the restaurant and she raved about it as well. We have had the cupcakes or slice of cake yet, but I'm certain it will not disappoint!”

“I ordered the quesabirria it came with chips and queso. It was so good, it was a wait but definitely worth it. Everything was fresh even the specialty lemonade was good. I recommend 10/10!”

“Hands down best mushroom swiss burger and fried pickle chips! Great job guys! Try this place out! You won’t be disappointed!”

“Gyro was good! Tzatziki sauce is on point!! I decided to get the side of potatoes and they were delicious! Wish the side was larger 😊”

“I AM NEW TO THE AREA AND THIS PLACE HAS THE BEST FOOD THE BEST DRINKS AND THE BEST STAFF ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! 10/10”

“The Barbacoa Crunch wrap was one of the most amazing things I've ever eaten. Fantastic! I wasn't a fan of the fire roasted salsa, but my husband liked it. The queso was delicious with the chips. Grab a Mexican Coke and you won't be disappointed.”

“Loved this place! Only issue was the drink leaking between the lid and cup—definitely recommend using a straw. It stained our shirts, but we’ll still be coming back!”

“I was running late this morning and accidentally chose the wrong location for my biscuit. I was super sad about missing breakfast but the staff was super understanding and helped me get my biscuit. Great service and understanding. Thank you again!!”

“I’m from Florida where all they have is island food so I know real Jamaican food and this is the only place that gives me the taste I’ve been looking for , for 3 years now since I moved to NC and they match and maybe beat what I was looking for”

“I had a fantastic experience at Sushioki in Durham, NC! We tried the spicy tuna burrito and the HoeDeopBap burrito, and both were absolutely delicious. The fish was incredibly fresh, and the flavors were spot on. The service was excellent — the staff was friendly and attentive, making the whole experience even better. I highly recommend Sushioki for anyone craving a fresh, tasty sushi burrito in Durham!”

“Great service and great food. We had a long, difficult week, and the kindness and wonderful food really lifted our spirits!”

“Excellent food and service. Always a pleasure.”

“Sushi specifically, is always so much better when it’s not the guy who’s the server , the cashier and the waiter making it ?. Besides that I love this restaurant and have been coming here since 2012!”

“We came in to visit some friends and they recommended this place for brunch. It was absolutely AMAZING! They were really quick to get our food out to us and our server was very kind and attentive. I got the brisket and grits brunch option and WOW! The brisket was perfect and I'm typically pretty picky about meat quality. I also order grits anytime I go out to breakfast/brunch, because they are my favorite, and these were hands-down some of the best I've ever had! The only ones that came close were what I've had in New Orleans. 10/10 would come back to Durham just for this restaurant! We also got the beignets and my partner got the eggs Benedict with fried green tomatoes + blue crab! Everything was delicious! I just truly cannot emphasize enough how I will be dreaming of their brisket and grits until I can come back again.”

“Had a great Dinner at Cucciolo Osteria on Duke Parents weekend! Had the Bolognese was delicious! Highly recommend! Even met a Celeb!💙”

“Absolutely amazing! Real honest and delicious coffee from people who really care. The energy is beautiful and the coffee is consciously sourced. My favorite coffee shop in Durham!”

“The soup came in a special pot that I only saw in Thailand. Everything was very delicious.”

“Visiting from Kentucky and this place was the first recommendation and totally worth it. The chef had my order ready in a good amount of time and the food was delicious. I got double chicken pad Thai, crispy shrimp boa bun and their chicken karaage 10/10”

“Our family's favorite restaurant. Very friendly atmosphere and the food is always fresh. We would highly recommend the masala fries and the fresh naans”

“One of the best smash burgers I’ve ever had. Wouldn’t change a thing on the Classic!”

“If you’re visiting Durham, going to the food hall, or just craving good food then this is your go-to place. Everyone was super helpful in giving recommendations, explaining the menu, etc. They had the chewiest and most flavorful naan I’ve had in a long while. Everything from the chickpeas to the South Indian curry was perfectly seasoned and noticeably made with a passion. The story of this spot is wonderful so make sure you read their history as well.”

“I love this place. Sofia's Pizza is a family owned local business in East Durham that has great food at a reasonable price and supports our community. We are lucky to have business owners that exemplify excellence of service, generosity, and dedication.”

“It was my 1st time, I was in press with the place”

“Thank you so much for the stunning graduation cake! Your artistry and attention to detail made it more than just dessert—it was a true centerpiece of the celebration. Everyone was amazed by how beautiful and delicious it was. You made our milestone even sweeter!”

“I have had a design for my future wedding cake picked out for YEARS. This weekend, I finally saw my vision come to life. Ro created the most beautiful cake I have ever laid eyes on. It tasted delicious, she was accommodating with communication, and even helped with a request to add an extra layer. I cannot recommend Ro Cake Studio enough. Thank you so much for making our day that much better!”

“I have ordered 5 cakes from Katelyn and am so excited to order many, many more! She is incredibly thoughtful, kind, talented, and amazing to work with. She always makes my ideas, no matter how crazy or farfetched, look even better than I could have imagined. Her cakes have made birthdays and other parties for myself and my loved ones, that much more special. Not to mention, they are the most delicious cakes I have ever tasted. If you don’t live too far away from Durham, do yourself a favor and order a cake (or multiple) from her!!”

“One of my favorite places.”

“Far and away one of my favorite places to take people in Durham when they visit us. Everyone who works there is so friendly. Their inside is cozy and decorated festive depending on season. Their rooftop is great and as a bonus, they offer blankets for when it gets cold. Limited food menu but what I've eaten has been good (I'm not personally going here to eat though) I'm going for their fun drinks, both cocktails and mocktails, and the view.
I do see people coming for the first time sometimes get discombobulated as to where to find it. Go in the building and take elevator and you'll see an open peachy pink door that leads to their bar.”

“The best ice cream shops in town!! Also the service is amazing 🤩”

“They allow dogs 🐶 What’s not to like? 🫶🏻”

“Had very relaxing time with family. The food was enjoyable.”

“I'm from out of town and ordered a cake in advance of coming to the area for a conference. I asked for a sophisticated birthday cake for a high-up person in the group attending the conference. I regret not getting a picture, but it was lovely! White buttercream frosting with classic black piping and gold dragees. So beautiful, and it was also v. yummy.

Also, I ate an amazing cookie here for my breakfast while the finishing touches were going on the cake. Mmm.

Finally - so easy to order over the phone and the people who helped me out were very friendly. Thank you!”

“Great fun with the family”

“Had a great experience here ! Taylor was a great server , will definitely be back and will be asking for her !!”

“Hands down this is the best bakery in Durham! All the items are well crafted and tasty. I'm often happily surprised by a new flavor combination, twist, or exceptional version of a baked good!”

“Absolutely delicious! Wish you had a location in Greensboro,NC !!”

“A whole vibe for sure . Loved JJ. Will be back”

“The food is excellent here at Silver spoon. The employees make you feel so welcome and are helpful in every way. The owner is so welcoming. Also I’ve never had a bad meal here at all! iI’s our go to place for lunch with a group of friends after church every week.”

“Mary was a really good server. Atmosphere was good . Food was mediocre ? grits were not that great omelet was ok at best , biscuit was toasted but tasted a day old. Again Mary saved you from a 3 star”

“A lovely wine bar with a wonderful selection of orange wine! I stopped by again on my birthday a few weeks ago, and was warmly welcomed by the owner Esteban. I think Brunello focuses more on the wine than the bar. In other words, it’s a great place to try out and get educated on new wine, but it’s less “vibe-y” as a bar. I wonder if softer chairs/a couch would help. Overall highly recommend!!”

“Some of the best vegan food I’ve ever had and the salsa was EASILY the best I’ve ever tasted, hands down! Friendly and humble folks here. We’ll be back!”

“Anissa’s is truly a hidden gem of the Triangle. They make some of the best food in the area, period, the end. Especially if you’re trying to stay healthy, they have the freshest Acai bowls that they customize to your liking and no added sugar like other places. On top of that they have a loyalty card and after 10 berries, you can get a free bowl. The service is bar none, after my 3rd time they had my order memorized, which is why I go in once/twice a week!!!”

“The food is excellent here at Silver spoon. The employees make you feel so welcome and are helpful in every way. The owner is so welcoming. Also I’ve never had a bad meal here at all! iI’s our go to place for lunch with a group of friends after church every week.”

“I was so disappointed with my meal as I had been looking forward to trying their spanakopita which came with a Greek salad. The salad was very good but the spanakopita was terrible. It was so dry that I couldn't cut it with a table knife! I've had this dish at other places and this is the worst I have had--order with caution!”

“Been around for years good food”

“I've ordered so much I am known. Fried rice with onions. The place I eat when it comes to Chinese. The best in town”

“We returned today after finding the food declining a couple of years ago. We were very pleasantly surprised to find it newly decorated and my husband's huevos rancheros were once again proclaimed "really good" (he is Mexican) even though they were out of rice. My Connie Benedict was perfect. The Hollandaise sauce had returned to its previous creaminess and the eggs were perfectly done. Not sure if the new decor is responsible for the acoustics, but it was very noisy”

“1st time picking up pizza & it was excellent!!! Loved the crust & pizza sauce!! Will definitely be bad!!”

“Excellent food and service. Always a pleasure.”

“The glaze donuts are to die for!”

“Good eats and excellent hospitality!”

“The food was excellent!! We had chicken quesadillas and beef burrito!! The best I ever had personally. A little pricey but worth it!! Try it you will love it.”

“Best papusas we have had in the country. Family owned with good service and Papuans as good as those we have had in El Salvador”

“Delicious Cousine, fine dining, exquisite! . Thank you, Jenny, in making our first dining excursion in Durham such a delight. Louisiana dishes at its best here In Durham - yes the Fried Catfish, red beans & rice might be a tad better with Andouille Sausage rather than ham but won’t quibble! Yum shrimp and grits.

“If u can wait at a sit down restaurant; why not have the patience to wait for great food. Ordered the jerk wings, jerk chicken dinner, jerk shrimp with two sides and the Philly egg rolls. I’m reading theses comments and see folk just mad u had to wait. Staff was working churning out orders and I notice no one had an attitude except folk who want something quick fast in a hurry. It had a wait but I can tell you most customers were ordering at least 3 plates. Everyone was enjoying the vibe and just relax. I rather wait on my food and make sure it right. I drove by at 4:47pm on Saturday and the line was out to the boa boa lunch buffet and when I got back at 6 pm there was a line to boa boa. I will be back and hope the folk who in a hurry realize they would wait an 30 min to hour to be seated and 45 min for the food to be prepared give this establishment some grace. The reason I’m passionate about this is when I got home, I was throughly impressed with my food and ate off my families plate. I glad my wife wanted to go. I would gladly stand in line again so I can get another chance to eat.”

“In my opinion the best Indian restaurant in our area. The food was interesting and well cooked. We will visit again.”

“Unique food and flavors. The kabob dishes, yogurt eggplant dish were amazing.”

“I cannot say enough about the Goat in Durham at Brier Creek! We had a party for my son and new daughter in law Saturday 8/19 and it was everything we wanted and more!! Marianna saw to our every need, gave us extra tables, tablecloths…..whatever we needed. The food, drinks, atmosphere were perfect!!! We were all so happy and had a great time. If you have a social gathering, meeting or any kind of group situation, The Goat is the place to go and ask for Marianna for sure!!! Love this place!!!”

“I had a delicious, classic country breakfast here. The banana pudding French toast was great. The atmosphere is very comfortable and the service is extremely quick and friendly”

“My wife and I were just blown away by the outstanding service we received yesterday at this location. We were greeted by Derek, R. He introduced himself to us and informed us that he will be our server and to please ask him if there is anything that we needed. He kept us informed as to our meals being ready and he was outstanding as to checking to see if everything was good with the meals and beverages. His appearance was greatly appropriate to include his clothing. He represented this company with the upmost professionalism. The foods were outstanding in being tasty and prepared just like the photos looked on the menu. We also had outstanding assistance from two workers who were restocking the gifts displayed in the lobby. Their interactions with us boosted my confidence in purchasing some gifts that we would have normally just walk over and never giving a thought in purchasing gifts from them. My wife and I will continue to be visiting that location whenever I happen to be in the area of their location.”

“Great place to eat and great service !!”
