“We ate at this Crabtree Mall location a few months ago, and had a great meal, with exceptional service from our server (Stella). But, today I just found out this location has been closed for good. How sad.... I wish we had as good an experience at their Durham location previously, but having eaten there two or three times, it was not as good as the Raleigh restaurant. Oh well. The food industry is rough to survive in these days.“

“I had a weird-good experience? lol
After a long day at work and grocery shopping I decided to go in for dinner, we asked for a triple dipper, and our entrees, we waited about 40 minutes and the waitress shows up with entrees and never got the appetizer, my steak was medium well and I had asked for rare, and I thought, this is the worse experience, the waitress comes and I tell her the steak is way over cooked for my liking, then the experience changed, the manager came, apologized the waitress was so embarrassed but did not hide, she made sure I got my new steak cooked fast and to temperature, the mashed potatoes were fresh and the broccoli was cooked al dente. After a rough start the made my dinner experience to go from not so good to a memorable one, thank you for going above and beyond. We will be coming back.“
