We had high hopes based on reviews for Sunday brunch - but omelet was undercooked, biscuits were thick and doughy, Bloody Mary took forever (even though no customers at the bard), order came wrong the first time. Restaurant also seemed understaffed - chef order “hands” for food ready to be served (our meals) three times with no response. Not much ambiance in dining room - several uncleared tables when we arrived...and still not cleared when we left.

Another awesome dinner at the Counting House. Our second visit and perfect as before! We started by a shared Caesar salad which had a light ‘lemony' dressing - sooo good!! Entrees of pork chop with a delicious glaze and the seared scallops- my absolute favorite! We shared the dessert of the cheesecake with baked apples- again, delicious! A great champagne anniversary dinner . Christopher, our waiter was very friendly and pleasant. Great friendly service from the moment we walked in. Beautiful, welcoming hostess! Well done Counting House!! Definitely recommend.

This was a mixed bag. We went on the early side to catch a show after so it wasn't crowded but still the atmosphere was only so so. A little old and dated. VERY hot and uncomfortable to sit in. The food was good but lacked something at the same time. Good but not GREAT as so many places we've been. Service was great and got great recommendations. Not sure we will return but enjoyed the experience for the most part. Highlight of the evening- go use the bathrooms on the second floor up. Gender neutral in the best way AND a cool privacy feature.

I got the ribeye steak which was delicious but for the cost it does not come with a salad / or some type of green

This is our favorite place to come before attending an event at DPAC. The food is delicious and everyone is so friendly. Our server was Tassia and she did an excellent job!

Burger was overcooked. Host forgot to mark down reservation. Server was awkward. Table next to us had undercooked food and a server spilled a full drink on diner.

We go to the DPAC from time to time to see shows. We come from Greensboro so about an hours drive which makes it difficult to squeeze a nice dinner in between. We got tickets to see Dave Chapelle and I chose Counting House as it is high end and near the DPAC. We arrived at 6:20 for a 6:15 reservation, so plenty of time to make the 8 o'clock show. We ordered just mains and a cocktail for my wife. The drink took about 20 minutes while the meal took an hour from the time we arrived. Our server was brand new and was one of two for the whole restaurant. We were told that the delays were due to their food-runner calling in sick but honestly, one person down doesn't account for the poor service. Then to add insult to injury, they offered free dessert to the table next to us but nothing for us and the long delay. Sixty minute ticket times are not acceptable. We were not made aware of any staffing issues in the back of the house so the long waiting time is unexplainable.

Why close at 8-9pm when the terminal has flights through 11?

Interesting place. I was very attracted by its interior in the photographs and of course, in my opinion, its highlight is the bank vault. Now serving as decoration. It is a very unusual experience to drink cocktails inside a huge safe with very thick walls and a door. This place is definitely not to be missed, it is worth spending some time there.
Kid-friendliness: Definitely yes, they will be very interested
Not vegetarian friendly. We came for a meal before a show at DPAC after having reviewed the menu online and seeing several attractive vegetarian options in both appetizers and main dishes. Upon arrival all those options were gone and the only options presented were salad. I ended up leaving my group to go to a different restaurant alone so I could get some protein before the show. :-(

Walked in on a Sunday at noon and the bartender basically refused to let us order food at the bar. He asked us twice if we wanted to go into the dining room. He was very rude for no reason especially after the hostess told us they serve full menu there

Counting House was everything I was hoping for... Amazing ambience, service & food! Some of the best raw oysters I've had & the scallop entree was scrumptious!!! Our server, Ginger was delightful, informative and intuitive. I will definitely return & recommend! Thank you for a perfect dining experience!
