My friends and I felt the food was cooked well but bland. The service wasn't bad, could have been better and the place looked clean. I would maybe try it again, my friends loved their drinks, I would say try it for yourself & see how you feel.

Dined there with friends Friday evening. The drinks, food, and service were outstanding. I loved the atmosphere as well. I've already recommended it to others. Looking forward to returning.

Tried the new location at lunch with coworkers. The interior is really well decorated. The service was really good. The food is always really good and this new location kept up the trend from the original one in downtown durham. Full bar with draft and bottle selections of beer.

The food was ok....I made a request to have diced tomatoes and cheese in my scrambled eggs. Despite having tomatoes.... they acted as if this simply could not be achieved.... then simply the unmentioned cheese on top of my overcooked scrambled eggs. There was an African American bar tender who was very good... very attentive...... but that is where the kindness and food service seemed to stop around the bar. The same gentleman who refused to fix my eggs the way I want.... continued to be rude with any and every request made. I think it's because they take their gratuity with every meal regardless of party size..... so no incentive to go above and beyond.

Great options for vegans who also want toVegetarian options: I wish there were more options, especially for dinner, but there were they have enough appetizer options to piece together a meal. I was satisfied.

My husband and I were looking for a new breakfast spot. We were not disappointed with the service or food. We will be back. I have already recommended it to family and friends. ?

The food was fantastic! Flavors were spot on and portions are generous. Rating this 4.5/5 as some menu diversity would be nice, as some of our party had some food allergies and dietary restrictions that could not be accommodated. Still very good, excellent service, and great addition for this area.

The service was great. Friendly staff. The shrimp and grits were delicious, the best I've had. The pork chops were moist and sweet potatoes made a nice combination.

Went in late on a Sunday, so not very busy. Service and food were great. I got the pulled pork platter and it was so much food! I asked to swap their crispy Brussels for the collards and WOW!!! they were so amazing. I am picky about Brussels sprouts (Love or hate) and I've never had them prepared quite like that...100% recommend!

We stopped by for Sunday brunch. This was our first time trying this place. We were greeted and sat right away. The restaurant was nice, clean and decor was great! Being our first time we were wanting to try a few things. We did start off with the fried waffle balls- these were delicious. I had the Cajun Salmon Cake Bene and my husband had the Pete's "Fat Kid" Breakfast Sandwich. The food was excellent!! We also tried the bottomless mimosas- nice treat for ourselves. I would definitely recommend this place and Will took excellent care of us!! Can't wait to come back for dinner.
