Great for lunch. Light and hearty options. It's cafeteria style when you go choose what you want, but there are menus on the wall before the food area. If it's not in the food area already, they'll make it to order.
I would recommend this place for a group. There's something for everyone.

Burrito Thursday is the best! Best burrito in town. Menu changes everyday so check out Twitter for updates. The app makes it easy and you don't have to wait in line!

Good food. The place was packed as I can only guess it usually is since it's only open 11-2 Mon thru Fri. The ordering system is chaotic...so its probably wise to call your order in ahead of time.

Wow very good food and it’s fulfilling. I got a burrito and orzo rice. I normally don’t order Mexican food unless it’s from an authentic Mexican restaurant but this burrito was actually delicious and full of flavor.. they are generous with the chicken inside & it taste homemade. Loved it! Highly recommend eating lunch here.

This place is consistently great. They have specials of the day, which are fun when you want to mix it up. You don't usually need to, though, because their menu offers a lot of variety. They definitely have a "customer first" mentality and it shows.
Wonderful place, wonderful people! :)

For a place that’s only open 15 hours a week, they are constantly packed and the food is always great!!
I had salmon for lunch there a few weeks ago and it was in the top 5 EVER pieces of fish I’ve had. It was AMAZING!!
It’s kind of hidden in a biz complex so you might not know it’s a restaurant but stop in M-F from 11-2. You won’t be sorry!!!!

Great lunch spot with a rotating menu of fantastic specials. I order online for a quick pickup when it gets mobbed at lunch time.

The food is good, but marginally pricey for lunch hours. However, it's a nice place to have lunch on the healthier side.

Cafe Meridian never disappoints with a wide variety of flavorful menu options. You can choose between hot bar items, salads, and sandwiches, and multiple daily specials. The cafeteria style restaurant's location is conveniently located off of I-40 and Highway 55 and offers dine-in and carry out.

Very good lunch location for the area. It's a smallish cafeteria style environment with high quality food. There are daily specials. There are also very good sandwich options along with the daily specials. About 11:50 they get so busy the line almost goes out the door. It's worth getting here early to avoid the crowd. They are only open for lunch.

Daily and weekly specials keep variety in my life. Close to those that work in the meridian park area. Web ordering makes things easy. There are a few favorites that I have now, cubano, salmon, and whatever burrito they have that week always hots the spot.

First visit and very well worth it. Had the Hollywood sandwich, just a half. Should have gotten a whole and I could have saved the other half for dinner it was so good. Original sandwich that had Turkey, London broil, gouda, avocado and bacon lettuce and dijionaise, had the tomato left off, on a sub roll. I'm not one for trying new things but this one was well worth it!

Good lunch spot, very popular and busy. The specials rolled through the line quickly, but I ordered a sandwich and it took a little bit during the lunch rush. The turkey chili was so, so, seemed like the ingredients weren’t the highest quality. Would go back, but would get one of the lunch specials.

The food is amazing! Different options every day with the bar, but they can always make you a specialty sandwich too. They have a few desert options too. Ample seating for the lunch crowd.

Full transparency - I'm biased as hell because this is my parents restaurant.
At the same time, what kid willingly wants to drive 30 minutes to eat their parents food? This kid - cause it's the best food. Cause it's my favorite food. Cause I can eat there 30 days in a row and not eat the same thing once. Whatever mood I'm in, it's fresh, healthy, and downright delicious.
Their sandwiches have spoiled me! Ruined me! No other sandwich matches theirs!
Favorite sandwiches: Pesto, Supreme, Cranberry, Savannah, Fresno, Caprese (I really could keep going...)
My favorites hot specials: cat fish PO boy (Friday only special!), spanakopita, fresh salmon with kale & garbanzo bean salads.

Best lunch in RTP. Food quality is consistent and customer service is top notch. Highly recommend the salmon. For sides I always go with cold orzo salad and the kale salad. Most days the owner is out there serving food with his employees. Great guy!

Food is alway fresh and delicious, the owner demands the highest quality of service. He had his staff re-do a customers order because it was wrapped and cut wrong.

They moved locations to closer to where we work and Williams kitchen was too busy, so we gave it a try since they have an outdoor space. Honestly, won’t be back it’s disappointing that Durham has a mask mandate, we are a year and half into a pandemic and the owner and some employees chose not to wear a mask. The sandwiches were pretty good, but nothing I would crave again and the sides they had don’t come with the sandwich and were just ok-maybe an option to add a drink and a side could be added together.

This is the only place I eat for lunch when I go into work. The food here is always great and the employees are very nice. The owner is awesome too and always greats people with a huge smile. So glad this place is here! It’s hard to find healthy lunch options in the area and this place always has healthy fresh choices. I can’t get enough of their Thursday chicken burritos, kale salad, spanakopita, festa chicken, or really anything on their daily hot bar! Only negative is that I wish they were open for dinner!

The food here tastes great, and the pricing is very reasonable. I usually order the supreme chicken sandwich. The restaurant is located conveniently in the RTP area. The staff are all super friendly. One of the staff members even let us continue our lunch while outside after closing time. Would highly recommend!

I found this place by mistake (i am always on the road locally), I am always looking for good lunch places (there is barely any good ones in the raleigh,cary,apex etcetc area). The first time i went was a Thursday (burrito day) and was blown away by their burritos, since then they moved down the street and i was excited I can have their burritos again on Thursdays, I brought my wife already and a friend of mine the last two Thursdays in a row. I never make reviews but they deserve it. Keep up with the good work! Great food!

Have not been since they moved locations (now on corner of 54/55 next to Big Lots)but it is as amazing as ever! Had a burrito (Gluten Free Wrap) and a side salad.
Went back 2 days later and it was fish Friday and it was perfect. Had it with a side of rice and chick pea salad.
I passed on dessert but there were 5 choices of cakes and pies along with cookies.
Glad to be back eating in this spot!

Fantastic place for lunch. Food is fresh, service is fast and delivered with a smile. I've utilized their catering and have found it to be absolutely perfect. Delivered on time and the cooked dishes were delivered piping hot. Most definitely a go to place!

This place has amazing food. It is fresh and every day there is a new, unique and yummy special. The chicken burritos on Thursday are so delicious and they are huge - take half home and you have dinner all set (if you are able to resist eating the whole thing)! The service is quick and it's the perfect stop for lunch in an easy access location on 55. You'll want to go every day!
