After waiting over an hour... server says if you don't like it here, you can leave.
Service here is a ZERO.
Atmosphere ZERO and I am not talking about the fact that this is a house in a neighborhood turned into a restaurant. Staff here are stressed, irritable, and not enough servers to go around. I'd feel bad for them if the crazy left feminist in glasses with a tattoo on her leg didn't behave so poorly. Her attitude is inexcusable, unacceptable.

Quick friendly service… And an amazing menu to choose from… I had the tomato, pimento cheese pie and the deviled eggs, and they were both absolutely fantastic… I highly recommend!
Definitely one of the best restaurants in Raleigh. I was blown away by this place the first time I ate here and have never been disappointed with all my dining experiences since. The menu offerings are pure genius.
Hands down the best shrimp and grits, escargot, and wings in town. Their food is elevated without any pretentious. Most importantly-it's delicious food! Great, friendly service and a comfortable atmosphere that makes you feel welcomed.
