“Everything about this restaurant is awesome, I've tried plenty of food items and all were fresh and hot. I like how they check your to go order with you before putting it in the bag. I live in Fayetteville, and I make that drive for some good Carolina Fish Fry.“
“Not quite the same menu as the Nashville location. Smaller choice selections but food still excellent. We had Dan as our server and he was very attentive. He gave us the space we needed for a business dinner but also was there at the appropriate times. Kept our drinks topped off.“
“In a time where great food and great service is scarce, this place is a jewel. I chose this place to celebrate a family birthday based on a great word of mouth referral and the birthday girl loves Indian cuisine. The place is beautiful and clean inside! The atmosphere is upscale from decor to lighting. You relax when you walk in. Did I mention the cloth pressed napkins!! What? The music plus at a volume that adds to ambience but not annoyingly loud do you can’t hear each other talk. It is not too bright, but not too dark either. The food was prepare with attention to detail and tasted delicious. You can ask for no spice if you are not into Spicy food. The service is excellent. The servers don’t hover or intrude, but are right on time for your needs. As I mentioned, we celebrated a birthday. I brought a large cupcake and a candle and had it on the table before guests arrived. The server asked if he could plate it in the back for later. I was so happy for the offer. Later, he came out with this amazing long plate with happy birthday written on the plate in rainbow gorgeous writing. He even lite it as he approached the table. Then a happy birthday song began to play over their sound system! It was so thoughtful and added that specialness to the evening that is hard to find today in the service industry. Thank you so much!!!“
“We had dinner here to celebrate my birthday. I was greeted warmly and a sign announced that it was my birthday. We were given a sparkling wine toast, and my turtle cheesecake was complimentary. The lobster bisque was delicious. As was the sea bass and the lamb loin. I love the mini desserts - just enough for a sweet treat after a full meal. This is definitely a fine choice for a birthday dinner!“
“This was the first time visiting M Sushi for four friends from Raleigh, Chapel Hill and Charlotte, meeting for lunch after an event. Our waiter was very helpful explaining the menu and we decided to order four different rolls and shared, which was a good decision. Everything was tasty and fresh! We will definitely go back!“
“Came in for brunch. The hostess was welcoming and escorted us to the bar seating when we requested.The restaurant was clean. I love the black leather seating interior throughout.We met our bartender Steven.Steven is great! Very welcoming, engaging, professional, and did a fabulous job making recommendations.I enjoyed the Gumbo grits which did not look appetizing when they arrived but it was delicious. There was sauteed chicken, sausage, and pickled okra as well as an egg that I had on the side (i ultimately added to my gumbo). I love a savory breakfast bowl and this was just that. There was also an order of catfish by the other individual in my party along with eggs, and sausage.For dessert, we tried the Sinner Rolls which were a nice sweet treat. My cocktails were espresso Hendricks martini, French 75, and cranberry mimosa... What a time!Everything was great!Steven's cocktails were top-tier.I must add the restrooms have all the hygienic things for individuals to go out in the world on the go to conquer their day. I love this!“
“The food was incredible. The steak was as good as any I've eaten anywhere in the country. The Delmonico was cooked perfectly medium rare and seasoned perfectly as well. The atmosphere was great and the overall price is what you would expect for this quality of food. The gentleman who sat us was excellent. He was very friendly and when our server was stuck at another table was more than helpful in going over the menu and helping narrow down our selections. However, the female server that did end up helping us was simply not all that great. She barely smiled and was not warm at all. She didn't check on us enough and there were a couple times when we were absolutely waiting on her at the end of the meal, particularly to bring the check and then to pick it up for payment. It may sound picky but in a high end restaurant such as this the service needs to be exemplary. All in all it was a great experience and we would return, only with the hopes of working with a different server.“
“Great atmosphere, service, and food. All staff goes the extra mile starting from the hostess to the valet. It is pricey but so worth it. The food is fantastic with impeccable service. Free complementary valet. Be sure to tip they rely on it.Parking: Free complementary valet. Be sure to tip they rely on it.Wheelchair accessibility: Wide doors and walkways“
“I have previously visited these establishments, which are in the city of Orlando, but I thought this one had excellent treatment and attention and the food had a better flavor and texture. I always order the same dish because of its flavor and freshness and it is worth knowing and enjoy a good seafood meal, I recommend it.“
“In town for the Raleigh Relays and had a taste for some seafood. Checked out the reviews and told the family let’s go!!! Trust me when tell you that you will leave satisfied. Customer service was A1!! Sam recommended starting out with the Honey Butter cornbread. Thank you Sam!!! If you don’t close your eyes and your tastebuds aren’t gently caressed after tasting it causing sounds of enjoyment to come from within, then something is wrong with you.No lies told when they say jumbo shrimp. Can’t go wrong if grilled or fried. Whiting on point. Mac n’ Cheese, valid!!! When Scott came out and met with me and wifey there is no doubt about the passion and love behind the food. The bonus was finding we used to live not far from each other back in the day and this was first time meeting. Will definitely be back when we’re in town!!!“
“Overall great place to eat, server was friendly and fantastic. One of the few places where I did not have to ask to have my leftovers boxed. She asked and then did it. I appreciate good service. Atmosphere was good, where we were seated was not quite the spot for a business conversation but it worked.“
“This place is interesting. It is kinda tricky to find. The food can be great, or not great. This time I had the swordfish. It was highly overcooked. The broccolini was highly undercooked, to the point that it could not be cut with a fork and a butter knife. The sauce was fairly bland. For seafood, I would not come back. Now.... With that said... The burgers. They looked, and smelled awesome. I wish I had ordered that, instead.This restaurant feels like it was something special a few years ago, and now it seems like they do not think they have to try, and that is a shame. It is a 3 star experience that could be way better, with a little effort.The Pink Venom was excellent.“
“My family and I dined at Rey’s this past Saturday evening. It took almost an hour for our entrees to arrive at the table. Our beef and seafood entrees were just okay, nothing special. We were somewhat disappointed. Not what we would expect for the price point. Oh well.“
“This place is AMAZING - and we are SO lucky to have it right here!! I live in Knightdale, NC, and I work at another fine dining restaurant in Raleigh proper. Nothing against where I work, but The Depot prides itself on sourcing locally as much as possible (beef from Brasstown in Franklin, poultry & duck from Joyce Farms in Chapel Hill, fresh produce from Blue Sky Farms in Wendell) and presenting a fresh, chef-driven menu. These people CARE DEEPLY about what they're presenting you... Kevin in the kitchen as executive chef, Zach behind the bar with his knowledge of both classic and innovative cocktails, Chris as the FOH manager making sure you have a great experience... I'm always happy when I'm a late-in - or get cut early enough - at my restaurant so that I can stop by The Depot & have something sooo delicious close to home & chat with my industry peeps here. This place is awesome... ????“
“Best quality shrimp I have ever had in my long time in Raleigh. Very helpful and friendly staff who care about getting your order correct. I had requested to have a certain ingredient removed from a dish, and since that was not possible for that specific dish they immediately called me and helped me switch my order to a similar(and delicious) alternative dish without any hassle and without me having to place another order. They proactively refunded the difference of dish price for my order without me even having to ask. I was only picking up but I also noticed they have a nice bar with TVs as well as a pleasant atmosphere.Dietary restrictions: Plenty of delicious pescatarian options“
“Husband & I tried for the first time today & we LOVED it!! Atmosphere, service & food was fantastic. Our server Liz was knowledgeable of the menu, helpful and super friendly. We ordered a signature combo that had shrimp, snow crab legs, sausage, potatoes, eggs & corn. With Liz’s recommendation we spiced it with medium heat house blend spices & it was absolutely delicious! We split this combo & it was plenty of food for 2 people. This place is great and we will go back again very soon!“
“Delicious Easter Sunday brunch. Great service, and the Easter brunch menu offerings were outstanding. My son's ribeye came to the table undercooked for rare, but the attentive manager making rounds saw the issue almost immediately and brought it back to the kitchen to be addressed. Proactive service!“
“Had the best meal ever, again! I'm never disappointed when I eat at J Alexanders. The wait was an hour, so we sat at the bar. Emily took care of us with another handsome (African-American) man (wish I would have gotten his name). They were both so attentive and detail oriented. I can't say enough about my favorites offerings... ThaiKai Salad, Steak and Frites (perfect temperature) and the Carrot Cake. The service and atmosphere are wonderful too but will take second place to the fabulous food.“
“My first time was today and it was one of the best Seafood places I have ever eaten. Listen, this isn't a upscale place to take a date. There is a counter where you order, pay and pick up your food. You eat on picnic tables inside and drinks come from a self serve machine like Burger King. All of that said if you are just looking for really good, perfectly cooked Calabash seafood it is hard to beat this in Raleigh.“
“We went on a Saturday afternoon, which seems to have been a very popular and busy time. It was evident that they were short staffed. Service was slower than we expected.We have dined here before, and the service is hit or miss. Sometimes it is great, this visit it was just ok. The food was ok. I had a club sandwich which was so spicy that I couldn't eat it. I don't like sending food back, so I just saved it for my husband. My husband had a burger that tasted pretty good. My loaded baked potato and onion rings were tasty.We will try again another time. Hopefully, the service will be better.“
“The food and service are amazing. So many halal options, the food is cooked well and with care, and the front of house gentlemen are kind and helpful. The customers coming and going were happy and pleased with their experiences too. I will continue to come back.“
“An outstanding Asian cuisine restaurant. We believe it is the best in the area. We have been there numerous times to try different menu items. All have been outstanding. The menu is extremely large and almost overwhelming. The outstanding service personnel can help you navigate the menu if asked. We will continue to go back to try different menu items. Don't be afraid if the parking lot seems empty. They do a very large pickup service.“
“It’s nice to have personal hotspot in Raleigh finally without driving to cart or Morrisville. I ordered the Sichuan Mala hotpot, the broth was delicious and came with great assortment of hotpot items. The hotpot container came with alcohol lamp underneath to keep the soup warm the whole time while eating it, just need to be careful if you are with young children.The portion was great for one person, it can be shared with two if you order some side dishes. The interior was nice and clean, will definitely be back soon!“
“This place is seriously yummy. Service is quick and staff is accommodating. From me to you though, DO NOT go to this place on a weekend. It is very crowded and parents cheap out on babysitters and bring their wild children and neglect parenting them since both their hands are busy with their seafood. This is a weekday type of restaurant for the meal to be 100% enjoyable.Parents, leave your kids at home during the week so we can actually enjoy this place too.“
“Seating at the Peddler is first come first serve so we got in line before the doors opened to guarantee we got seated in the first wave on a Saturday night. Definitely the best steakhouse in Raleigh and far superior than that overrated one further up Glenwood. The service is incredible and attentive. Had the ribeye with asparagus and the salad bar. Love having the steaks cut table side so you know exactly what you're getting. I make it a point to get here a few times a year. Definitely a real treat that I look forward to.“
“I would like to give this place a 4 star, but... I think that there is a time and place for everything. If you have an issue with an employee, how about dealing with it behind closed doors and not being rude to them in front of customers.Thank goodness the fish was fresh.Great job on cleaning the fish.“
“Nestled discreetly in the heart of Eastern Raleigh, Chuan Cafe is a culinary treasure waiting to be discovered. Situated conveniently close to the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema Raleigh on New Bern Avenue, this quaint eatery was recommended to me by my children, and I must say, it exceeded all expectations.Upon entering, I was enveloped in a wave of nostalgia, reminiscent of cherished memories from my childhood. The ambiance exudes simplicity and warmth, with an unassuming interior design that instantly puts one at ease. It's the kind of place where you feel like you've come home, even if it's your first visit.Now, let's talk about the food - simply put, it's phenomenal. Every dish on the menu is crafted with care and precision, resulting in flavors that dance on your palate and leave you craving for more. One standout dish that stole the show for me was the beef stew soup with noodles. From the moment it arrived at the table, I knew I was in for a treat. The aroma alone was enough to whet my appetite, but it was the first sip of the rich, flavorful broth that truly captured my heart. Each spoonful was a symphony of taste, with tender chunks of beef, perfectly cooked noodles, and an assortment of aromatic spices that left me utterly speechless. Even after I had finished every last drop, my mouth continued to water at the mere memory of its exquisite flavor.In addition to the beef stew soup, Chuan Cafe offers a diverse range of culinary delights to suit every palate. Whether you're in the mood for savory stir-fries, comforting noodle dishes, or tantalizing appetizers, there's something on the menu to satisfy every craving.Parking: The restaurant offers many parking spaces for its patrons.Wheelchair accessibility: It has reserved spaces for people with wheelchairs.“
“This food truck is phenomenal. When I tell you people are there waiting for them open. I'm talking about like five or six people just sitting outside the truck waiting on them to set up, and it was like 9am- 10am. I knew the food was going to be good then, lol. They definitely didn't come to disappoint. The Henny wings were bussin crunchy and juicy. Lord, my hamburger steak with broccoli cheese casserole and mac and cheese plate was looking like Sunday dinner!!!! It was enough for two people and was so delicious. I definitely recommend yall trying out this place.“
“My husband & I stumbled upon Mi Peru while out running some errands. We are both fans of Peruvian chicken and this did not disappoint. The chicken was great as well as the sides. The Huacatay sauce is so good, they ought to bottle and sell it to go. The interior is nothing special but the food definitely is.“
