Stopped in for dinner before the show. New to the area and didn’t make reservations so we sat at a high top. The ribeye was unbelievably delicious. Exactly how I want my steak done with the nice char. Together with mushrooms and their sauce made this steak the best steak of my entire life! The beer fat fries are a MUST!!!

DUDE!!!! I did not have high hopes from some reviews I saw about this place but because of the location I’ve decided to book a reservation for dinner none the less. I was there for my ‘Wicked’ birthday dinner. I was shocked. The atmosphere, I’m sooooo glad that I dressed for the occasion. It was an intimate romantic dining experience. Loved the ambiance. The server was knowledgeable and very professional and caring to our needs and happily answered all our questions. Wonderful explanation of the menu and specials. The food, superb to say the least. The proportions were over the top, I’m a fat man so of course it’s only natural that I finished my plate. But that’s not the shocker. My partner and a friend of ours (both skinny minnies) finished every ounce of food too. Nearly licked the plates. This place is one of my date nights for future events in Durham. 10/10 would recommend.

100/10!!! Could not have been better. Wes and Jared were incredible and the service was impeccable. We got the heirloom tomato appetizer, filet mignons, and various sides. Everything was exquisite and the filet was one of the best steaks I’ve ever had (and that’s saying something). The owner also came by and was very very nice. We can’t wait to come back!

My first outing to this restaurant was amazing. Started with the seasonal tomato salad and a watermelon margarita as highly recommended by Dana (my server) and they were delicious. Next had a perfect filet mignon and roasted red potatoes (the potatoes tasted amazing with the sauce that came with the steak… the steak itself didn’t need sauce since it was already tasty as is). And because I’m celebrating my birthday, she brought me ice cream with a candle 🥳 This was a birthday treat for myself and I knocked it out the park 🎉🎉🎉

The service was great. Food was good. Side portions are shareable. It has great atmosphere that can be mature kid friendly.

Top tier !! Lovely place for fresh and flavorful food. I only had a party of three but staff were very attentive to the needs of the table. The waitress did suggest her favorites and most popular dishes after being prompted. The salmon was very flavorful and cooked to perfection at medium. The orzo was prepared nice and did not over power the salmon. The chicken was plated well and tender (not sure if they brine it first ) but the flavor profile was A+. The collard greens at first took me by surprise because of the flavor but to know that brown sugar and apple cider vinegar are used, made it next level. The potatoes were plated nicely and the texture brought the entire plate together. Overall great experience. It was a pleasure to meet Graham and he took the time out the spark a conversation with the table. If you have not tried this restaurant , definitely put it on your list !
