My "bad ass" burger was great, and I also enjoyed the mudslide.

Would eat here again if in town long enough.“

“This place still feels relatively trendy, even though it's been open for years. Our appetizer, the nachos with ahi, was simply amazing. The sushi itself was good. And we were there on a Wednesday, which was half price bottles of wine, a nice surprise, indeed. Our server was friendly, bubbly, and very attentive. Overall, a really good experience!“

“A child hood favorite, I try to stop by whenever I'm in town. On my previous trip, my son tried it with me for the first time. He had the same smile I used to have when my father would bring me. A thumbs up from him doesn't come easy ?. Burgers are always a hit, and don't forget the milkshake ?

“Recommend char burger, more bang for your buck. Outdoor bbq air can't be beat! They had fun with the PA system as well and correctly pronounced my teen's name (fun embarrassment ?). Will put it on lettuce (or your fries) for those of us who can't enjoy the bun. Quick for the lunch hour.“

“By far the best hush puppies and pork ribs you’ll find in North Carolina. The sassy but wonderfully welcoming attitude there makes the meal even that much better. They really go out of their way to cook things so perfect, that you leave there satisfied and really feel as though you’ve had an experience Through the love they put into what they cook. Their sauces are great and they even have a thing where you can pay it forward and buy somebody who’s in need a meal. These guys do it all, I don’t care what anybody says about number one number two, in this place number don’t count it’s what they do that does, and your belly will find out why these guys are amazing. Try it for yourself. You will not be disappointed.!“

“This was our first time at a Backyard Burgers and it didn't disappoint! The burgers tasted like something that you'd cook at home on the grill with a ton of flavor, juicy, and a good size! I had the Southwest BBQ Bacon and my boyfriend got the Steakhouse Burger. The seasoned fries are delicious too. Everything came out hot and fresh quickly. The staff were super friendly and very helpful too, especially Chad! The prices were good for the quality and size of food. We'd come back again!“

“Very nice & friendly. No dine in. The guy said there was a table outside to eat at, I looked, didn't see 1. Small area. Reasonable prices. Good taste.

Parking: Very small area, busy drive through. I did find a place to park. If busy for eat in car, parking could get crowded,as there's no dine in. There is a take out window. There were a few times while there, would of had to wait to get out due to drive through being busy, it did move through faster than I expected.“

“Our party of 10 adults and kids visited here on a Sunday night for my birthday. We had seating on the covered patio and the weather was absolutely perfect. Eden was our server. She brought waters out immediately. She gave us just the right amount of time to decide on our meals and took our orders. Food came out fairly quickly and everything was correct and delicious. Apparently I was hungry because I forgot to take pictures of any of it. Eden anticipated our every need. We never wanted for drink refills, extra sauce, to go boxes. She even brought out a cinnamon pretzel in the shape of a 50 for my birthday! It was such a fun birthday experience. 8 year old niece has decided this is her new favorite restaurant!“

“I love Barry's! The firefighter theme is lovely and the food is great. I love to come here with my gluten free friends because the staff are so careful to avoid contamination. Everyone is always so nice too. I highly recommend Barry's.

Dietary restrictions: I've been here several times with a friend of mine who has celiac. There are gluten free versions of everything on the menu and the staff are very careful to ensure that there is no contamination. Red plates are used to distinguish plates with gluten free food. There is a labeled toaster for the gluten free bread and staff always ask if you have celiac when you order a gluten free meal.

Parking: There's always plenty of parking around Barry's.“

“Village Deli in Raleigh is a fantastic spot for fresh, satisfying meals! Their sandwiches are made with high-quality ingredients, and you can taste the difference. I ordered the turkey club, which was piled high and perfectly balanced with crisp lettuce, juicy tomatoes, and savory bacon. Their soups are also great – the tomato basil was delicious and comforting. The vibe is casual and friendly, and the staff make you feel right at home. It’s a perfect lunch spot, especially if you’re looking for something local and well-made. Definitely a go-to for anyone in the area craving a great deli experience!

“We had a nice time at Village Draft House today. They have indoor and outdoor seating. When we arrived it wasn't crowded, they had plenty of indoor and outdoor seating.

Our service/server was good. He was at the table when we needed him, and took our order in a timely manner.

The food was good... I got the Adult Bacon Grilled Cheese. It had good flavors and the bacon was cooked nicely. My wife ordered the Turkey Avocado Sandwich. She ordered the bacon very well done and they did a good job of cooking it to her liking. The downside is there was only one piece of bacon on the sandwich. For the size of the sandwiches, I would have expected another slice or (preferably) two of bacon. The portion sizes of the meals are good.

The atmosphere is nice, what you would expect from a "draft house".

A couple places on the menu tell you to check the chalkboards for the daily specials. The problem is the chalkboards aren't in the best location to easily see them.

Overall we had a good experience and would most likely go back again.“

“Absolutely love this place! The manager Chaz is always amazing. Great place to watch any sporting event. Huge menu and food is always fast and perfect!“

“Food nasty and the owner has a even nastier attitude. Just because this is a black owned business it doesn't mean we have to lie and say the food is good, when in most cases you cant even eat a bite of it due to the amount of salt on the food. I will always give a honest review no matter the owners skin color. This owner is rude and will block you for leaving a honest review if it is not to his likings. Hopefully one day he will get it together, take the critism and make some improvements“

“Sunday street tacos best I've ever had with a kick in the sauce. PERFECT!!! BEAT FOOD IN RALEIGH“

“Went in to grab dinner & was amazed at how clean and organized this place is. It’s decorated beautifully for Halloween with a treat bowl by the registers. The staff was very nice, and detail oriented. My kids definitely loved going in.

“I came in during a rush and Ms. Veronica made my dining experience wonderful! She was very pleasant and her customer service is top tier! The food didn't take long to come to our table and it was delicious per usual! The dining area was clean and me and my family enjoyed our meal! The burgers were big and juicy and the milkshakes were really good! It may be a bit pricey, but worth it because of the quality of food and the excellent customer service!
