Enjoyed a birthday dinner with friends at the Local Room. This was our first time dining here. Absolutely amazing!! Great food, waitress Ella took good care of us! Thank you Ella!

Came to celebrate my mom's birthday and the food and service were great! Karlie took great care of us at the bar since we arrived early and made us amazing cocktails! Our steaks were amazing and my mom loved the salmon! Gracie was our waitress and was a sweetheart! Look forward to celebrating many more birthdays here because half the staff came and sang happy birthday to my mom! Love this place!

What a pleasant (not so little) surprise! Delightful find. Delicious food & terrific service. They even replaced a cocktail that was a tad too sweet. Our only non-positive comment would be on the lighting. The entire place is lit with exposed Edison bulbs. It could be SO much more warmly lit without all the glare!!! Otherwise 5 Stars 👍

It took so long to get our food, I honestly believe the waitress forgot to put the order in. People who ordered after us got their food before we got our salads. Not a good experience for the price paid for the food.

Food was okay my steak was cold for $50 wasn't worth it. I ordered a bone-in ribeye no bone lots of Gristle we won't be going back

We enjoyed our experience. Will visit again but choose other food options. Steak was chewy.

Food was good, I had the burger with fries and a cider. We had multiple servers who kept forgetting us.

BRAVO!!!!!! Hosted a milestone birthday party this past weekend, which I planned with the management team from Maryland, and all expectations were met and exceeded. Big shoutout to the team of servers (Jenna, Gracie & Danielle) who made the day seamless from setup to completion. Chef Payne - I am still hearing from guests how much they enjoyed the food. Tony - you were very attentive and provided me the opportunity to feel comfortable that we were in great hands & enjoy the event. I would recommend this venue 110% for your next event (or just a meal with family or friends). I will certainly be stopping by the next time I am in North Carolina. THANK YOU IS NOT ENOUGH!!!!! ❤️

As a first-time customer, I was thoroughly impressed by the exceptional service from everyone — the waitstaff, management, hostess, and bartender all went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The fried green tomato appetizer was a standout, with the perfect balance of crispy and tangy sauce. For the main course, the shrimp and grits were packed with flavor, with tender shrimp and a creamy, well-seasoned sauce that made every bite enjoyable. The ribeye was cooked perfection — tender, juicy, and seasoned just right. We also had an Amaretto Sour that was hands down the best we’ve ever tasted, perfectly balanced with just the right amount of sweetness and tartness. To finish, the Sauvignon Blanc was crisp, refreshing, and a great pairing with our meal. All in all, a fantastic dining experience, and I can’t wait to return!

Started out great the crab dip is really good and waitress and staff were friendly Ribs were great but the I would stay away from the steak they cooked mine like shoe leather even though ordered medium rare The entrees were fine overall but not stellar my issue is for a $160 meal I expected a better steak not something so dry and overcooked Thanks
