“Zweli's Ekhaya offers delicious food, flexible options (GF, Vegan), and a wonderful staff. Jeremy offered great recommendations and service, even after I accidentally spilled my drink -- on him. I was there for the brunch menu and picked the Suya Chicken Kabobs, marinated in Nigerian spices (paprika, ginger, scotch bonnet) and topped with peanut. There's outdoor seating, beautiful decor inside... Even the restroom was lovely.“
“Benjamin made my Earl Please (an alcohol free cocktail from their menu) and was so kind and attentive. As a graduate student who can't drink alcohol much due to disabilities, places with options for me me to enjoy delicious and fancy beverages are special. The only thing that makes me sad is that I'm not rich enough to order more than one a day! ?? Someone pay me more money! It's so tasty! Best non-lavender mocktail ever!Dietary restrictions: Alcohol free cocktails; non-alcoholic beverages“
“We had an extraordinary experience here—an evening marked by splendid ambience, an attentive server, delectable wine, and flawless gastronomy. From the outset, we indulged in an assortment of appetizers, namely the octopus, calamari, lamb kefte, and crab soup. For the main course, my friend savored the scallop special while I relished the flawlessly prepared lamb loin. Our companions delighted in the steak frites and the red snapper, the day's piscine delicacy. As a grand finale to our night, we concluded with the exquisite goat cheese and honey cheesecake. We cannot laud this establishment enough for its superlative qualities!“
“Cute vibes. my boyfriend and I came on the Thursday night which is their trivia night. The hostesses checked on us many times. We both had sandwiches. That were just OK. We also bought two seasonal drinks I personally feel mine was a bit too strong, but but who complains about too strong of a drink?!? I wouldn’t necessarily recommend this place for dinner, but it was fun to do the trivia and to have snacks and dessert. I will definitely be back. Dessert was the best part…crème brûlée.“
“Absolutely love this place!!! They are clearly passionate about the actual preparation of food. Requested customizations were accepted graciously and executed with the perfection of a chef who appreciated the request. The staff are amazing. I'm so upset I only recently discovered this place!!“
“I always struggle to find restaurants that use adequate amounts of spice and flavor. Mateo, however, certainly didn't miss the mark, and every dish was extremely flavorful and decadent. I'm a vegetarian, and there were plenty of options for me, with the fried cauliflower special being my absolute favorite and unlike anything I expected from a cauliflower dish. I also had a beet dish with got cheese that was wonderful. You can't go wrong with their pan con tomate which is an excellent start to the meal. It's a shame I'm not from Durham, because I'd love to come back.“
“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!!“
“Love this place. Went last weekend for the first time when going to DPAC for a show. Had a duck fat washed old fashioned that was delicious (the Duck Hunt). Wife had the First Word. Favorite drinks that night across the town. Staff was kind and professional even in the rush.“
“Some recipes have been changed not for the best... Dining outside is great compared to the noise inside. For the price, may we recommend a little bit more of table setup like a paper place mat? Also, a wiser way to place / space customers would be highly appreciated especially when a crazy table of students is sitting next to us, while we are in the middle of a calm and lovely time.“
“Great outdoor atmosphere and good service. Good selection of food and drinks. Always enjoy a business who rehabs an old garage as they have a lot of character. Be aware that parking has been limited the past couple years due to the new construction in the area.“
“We ate here for Valentine's Day. I ordered the Chicken Marsala, my sister & niece got the lobster ravioli, and the hubs ordered the lasagna. We all LOVED our meals, with the exception of the hubs. The lasagna was not layered, it was more deconstructed. Bread and service were outstanding! The place was clean and quaint! A nice little authentic Italian gem!!“
