Good reason to come back. Started with prickly pear margarita with mescal. Yum! Had a white wine after. It was ok. My friend and I shared 4 bruschetta's- smoked salmon and pesto, artichoke, caprese, and apple, Brie and fig. Favs were smoked salmon and apple and Brie. The fries were amazing. Salmon board was good too. The bread on the board was much better than the bruschetta. Ambiance is great. Service as well. Will be back!

Absolutely love Postino! This is my go to lunch spot with coworkers. We've been numerous times…read moreand are never disappointed. My go to meal is the half panini and tomato soup. Their roast beef panini is on par with Portillo's a long standing Chicago beef restaurant (IYKYK). I've NEVER had a beef sandwich that was better than Portillo's but Postino you managed to take a hometown classic and elevate it to a point beyond my expectations - if you get this sandwich I recommend getting it on the ciabatta bread versus focaccia. Let's not overlook the tomato soup - it's so rich and flavorful. For a lighter lunch my go to is the tuna panini with broccoli salad. They are known for their boards, I've not had the bruschetta yet but it looks delicious. My favorite board is the hummus. One thing I hate is when a restaurant gives you a big bowl of hummus and not enough pita. That is not the case here, you'll get pita, toasted bread, and a variety of vegetables to scoop up the velvety humus covered in cherry tomatoes, red onion and feta. For date night enjoy a Violet Femme a gin cocktail that tastes as lovely as it looks. The service here is top notch! Everyone is fantastic. I'll have to come back to this review to note the serves names we've had because they have all been exceptional. Now let's talk about the vibe! Postino's nailed the indoor/outdoor feel. Plenty of windows that are open on nice days, plants galore and the decor gives you a cool like rockstar but classy feel. 5 stars doesn't feel like enough.

OK, so I visited this spot this weekend as part of my birthday rounds, lol. And I was pleasantly…read moresurprised at the beautiful ambience, the phenomenal services, and the food taste was on point. There was a bit of a line to enter, but once we got in and seatted the food came relatively quickly and did not taste rushed. This location offers both indoor and outdoor seating. We went with indoor seating and I think that it was the perfect choice as the temperature lowered as the sun went down. However, even as the temperature dropped, all outdoor spacing had heat lamps. There's even outdoor glass fireplaces in the waiting area .

We were in the neighborhood walking around on an on again, off again rainy Saturday day late…read moreafternoon. We stopped at The Station for drinks and appetizers. We sat right away at the bar, but it took forever for someone to take our order. Once we ordered the drinks, they came in a semi decent amount of time, but the food took forever, I almost said never mind, but it was hard to find someone to tell. We sat at the outside bar and it wasn't crowded, maybe it was inside. The drinks were refreshing, the mussels were delicious, but the fries were flimsy and tasteless. I'd go back and try other menu items for sure.

Whiskey kitchen !!!!! Wowzers !!…read more Let me tell you this place is 10/10! The food , the drinks and the service.. I wish I could come daily as it definitely is a great spot. One part whiskey bar and one part southern kitchen this is a win in downtown Raleigh!

The shrimp and grits were alittle to saucy for me but my nephew had no problem finishing it for me lol. We will definitely be back!

My boyfriend and I dined here for a date night and I had really hoped for better. The first thing I…read morenoticed upon arriving was how dead it was, especially considering we went on a Friday night at 6:30PM. My boyfriend is a huge whiskey drinker and had been wanting to visit here for a while. He had heard that the best Old Fashioned were here (he said that it was not that great), and while they did have bougie cocktails, I settled for a margarita. Our server was very attentive and friendly. The atmosphere and decor were great! I am a plant person, so I loved seeing all of the plants. I love the open concept and exposed ceiling. But the food......was displeasing and unappetizing. I ordered the lamp burger, and while I ordered it as well done, I did not know that it would be presented overcooked with a charred outside. If you know lamb, this caused the meat to be extremely dry. The burger itself was very bland and lacked much flavor. My boyfriend ordered the Fireman's Chicken and by the looks of it when it came out, someone should have called the fire department while it was cooking! It was so burnt it was black. The only flavor present was charred meat and it was the most dried out chicken we have ever had (unfortunately I tried it). The collard greens were bitter with little flavor and the black-eyed peas still had crunch to where they weren't cooked all the way. To say all this, to have a $100 bill was HIGHLY unappreciated as it was one of the worst meals we have had in a LONG time. I definitely could see why they were not busy. The food was cooked terrible. And I will note that it isn't that I am picky, the couple next to us barely ate their meal and looked just as dissatisfied as we were. We would NOT recommend!

Inside you have a long bar with tables surrounding it. Outside is a covered patio with not much noise. I chose the patio on the day I went. It was sunny and crisp. I had two hours between work shifts and chose to enjoy an easy lunch here. I didn't order drinks but Village Tavern has an extensive wine list. I would love to have a glass on my next visit. Their bread tastes fresh. If you take it home, my tip is to reheat it in the toaster oven. My salad was excellent. Gives me inspiration for crafting healthy eats at home. It was what I needed before my next shift. Sending my thanks to the chef.

Just wanted a lil Barbecue from the South and Midwood did not disappoint! The food was better than…read moreI expected. Had the Carolina pork which is vinegar based and I loved it. Was given two choices (bottles) of bbq sauce which enhanced the flavor. The plate was served with hush puppies and a pickle salad, both yummy. For my sides I got the Mac & Cheese and collard greens. While the Mac was delicious, the greens needed a little more flavor/soul. The staff, especially the bartenders were very friendly. Very nice atmosphere, I chose to sit at the outside bar since it was a nice day. Thumbs up for the drinks. Would definitely return. I could definitely imagine this place being a vibe on a busy night

Environment: Located in the suburbs…read more Cleanliness: 2 of 5 stars; Leadership/Management should ensure the restaurant is cleaned thoroughly at close of business as well as before the start of business each day; I needed to use the restroom at the end of our visit but thought about how the restaurant was presented upon entry and waited until I got home! The Welcome mat and surrounding floor area where we were seated had scattered crumbs/debri all around them! You shouldn't "judge a book by it's cover," so instead of leaving, I sat down and gave the food a try! Maybe it was an off-day, however first impressions are everything to me and the 101 Kitchen didn't come through with me for presentation yesterday! Food: Very tasty and plentiful; yet it was something about that steak that didn't taste quite like steak or maybe it was the fact that the Steak Exquisite Meal came with flank steak which tasted like a cross between sirloin, ribeye and something undecided! The (2) steaks came on a bed of fried potatoes with an egg for about $30! I'm one and done with this meal! My wife had pork belly bowl in which she didn't like; she sent it back to the kitchen and opted into a chicken and blueberry waffle plate for about $20! The chicken was thick and flavorful as well as the delectable Belgian waffle! We each had (1) glass pineapple juice($4/glass)! We spent $65 total with a tip! They have a full-service bar which might get my patronage later on this year because once again, they have exceptional service! Service: We received very prompt fast service and we're served our food/drink within 15-20 minutes of being seated!
