Nofo fraudulently added a tip to my check that I only noticed when I was reviewing CC bill. I had included a generous cash tip and zeroed out the check tip. Merry Christmas ….

Very friendly staff and fun ambiance. The fried fish and salmon were excellent! The grit had a little too much cream. Keep it more like authentic grit :-)

We had a wonderful first time experience here! The hostess was welcoming and friendly, excitedly seating us outdoors. Our waitress, Vianne, was happy, outgoing, and it was clear she wanted to be there. We felt like she genuinely had our best interest in mind when we asked for recommendations. The food was delicious, fresh, and reasonable portion size. We appreciated the attentive service and the timing of the food as we were attending an event down the road. We really appreciated the waitress being attentive enough to allow us to have two rounds of beverages in our limited time. I wish I had been here sooner. If Vianne could work at every restaurant, the world would be a much better place.

Still a good restaurant after many years. Flounder and fries were very good as was the goat cheese crostini.

Can't say enough great things about NOFO. We have been doing a project down the street for about 5 months and have had lunch at NOFO just about every Friday. Never had a bad meal or service. The regular menu as well as the daily specials are fantastic. The staff always took great care of us. Thanks to Hailey, Laura, Danny and Vianne for making our NOFO Friday visits enjoyable.

A must stop when visiting from out of town. Great food and atmosphere. Haley is always great to talk and amazing service. Their grits are amazing, as well as sandwiches and burger.

GREAT selection of hemp- derived beverages. Sunday brunch, get there early. Outdoor atmosphere was perfect. Service was personable and attentive.
The place has a great atmosphere. My fourth time here so expected the food to be as good. The cappuccino was terrible-undrinkable. The omelette was not flavorful! Great service! Hope this was a one off!

Unique local place equally appealing to eat downstairs or browse the upstairs. Local history mixed with tasty Southern American fare with distinctive charm great dining for family and friends. Pork chop, fried okra, and bbq sliders are favs and hard to resist reordering each visit. Quality cocktails and sweet tea is always part of the pleasure. Same to be said of the chocolates and old fashioned candies upstairs. Fun details abound, from menu, to decor, and the quality curated items that can be purchased upstairs.

We enjoyed our FIVE-STAR meal and shopping experience at The Pig Cafe and NOFO shop/gift shop, nestled in the charming Five Points area of Raleigh’s beautiful and historic Hayes Barton district. The food was great (see photos) consisting of a chicken salad sandwich with fruit bowl, and a shrimp cake sandwich with fried okra (yum)! Many food options are available, including food to go from the NOFO coolers. Shopping at NOFO is a real retail treat with something for every appetite and every age (see photos).

I had the shrimp and grits for lunch! It was so good, and the it's a great atmosphere. The have some old signage and relics from the Piggly Wiggly. The tables are listed, but the owner didn't mind that we stayed and chatted after the meal. There is also a cute little store on the top level with specialty foods & other miscellaneous items. I would definitely recommend & will be back.

Had the best time here. Super fun, friendly, cheerful staff, even with this ungodly weather. The breakfast burrito was delicious; get it. Also get a Bloody Mary.
