“** Long Post Warning** OOHHHHH MYYYYYY GOOOOOODDDDDDD! Outside of Texas I have never had such delicious barbecue. The brisket will have you crying like a baby and the I house made pimento cheese sausage is crazy! The bbq rice is perfect and the pork bbq is ridiculous and flavor packed to the last bite. The whole staff is pretty much Military Veterans and you can see and hear them working together to make sure service is quick and seamless. The best barbecue place in NC hands down. Each year he honors active duty and military veterans with free food for the whole family. Most places that do military meals only give it to the military person and it's usually a lunch size portion of 3-4 options on a limited menu. Not at Prime. You get the same options and portions for free as you would if you paid. I have a family of 6 so imagine what kind of bill we usually have. To have that paid for and get the quality of food we get is mind blowing. Prime has a special table that can be reserved by veterans or active duty that seats 8-10 people and it's awesome. The owner Christopher Prieto is the most genuine and humble man on earth. My wife sat down to eat one day and he seen my Navy Veteran shirt. He asked me if he could sit down and thanked me for my service and just started talking to me and my wife like we knew each other all our lives. I knew I seen his face before and then I realized he was on Food Networks Chopped in the barbecue championship representing NC. My family is a family of faith and so is he. He talked to us about how God gave him his vision and his purpose for the restaurant and how he uses proceeds to help veterans and families in need have meals and basic necessities as his way of showing the love of the Lord. I cannot say enough about this place. My wife and I go every chance we get.“

“Solid BBQ, one star off because I feel they're skimpy on the meat portions. I ordered the 2 meat plate with brisket and ribs. Received 1-1/2 slices of brisket and 2 ribs. The baked beans were terrific and the mac & cheese was very good. Great staff also.“

“05APR24 - So good I came back! I had the shrimp and grits this time. Very good!04APR24 - HOLY WOW‼️Awesome diner in a strip mall. I got seated right away as a single diner. If I had been a party of two or more there would have been a minimum 10-minute wait. The place was busy!I had the fried chicken plate... It was half a chicken, wing, leg, breast and thigh. Fried to perfection. It came with mashed potatoes and green beans and a biscuit. All three were excellent.If you haven't been to Metro Diner you need to go. Especially if you're a fan of diners. This doesn't have the diner typical thousand thing menu but it is decent and so for the food is excellent.I will be back!Parking: Big strip mall parking lot.“

“We went on Tuesday, 4/2, for a late breakfast. We were seated and the server, Chas, greeted us with a friendly welcome. The restaurant has a country atmosphere that we liked. Took our order and plied us with good hot coffee. My wife had a spinach and mushroom omelet and I had a pork loin breakfast. They were served before we could finish our first cup of coffee and the tastes were scrumptious. The biscuits were light and fluffy. The next time we are in Raleigh, we will eat here again.“

“Met a good friend for a late breakfast. The smoked sausage with eggs, grits and biscuit were good. Next time, I'll try to remember to skip the coffee, it's weak and definitely skip the $8 pancake. While it's huge, mine was too brown = a little dry. The fellowship and service = 4 star rating.“

“When I say the gravy will have you smacking your lips, I mean it! I was craving something smothered and Jack's understood the assignment! I got two smothered porkchop plated and my mom and I enjoyed every bit of it! My husband don't even eat pork and he tasted it. Now my daughter's fried chicken plate failed. The grease needed to be changed and she said mommy it's yucky! So, maybe re donthe fried chicken leg plate but other than that top notch!“
