Delicious. Next was the cheese board, we were warned that it was a large serving, and while it had a lot of variety, I don't think it was massive based on other cheese boards we had. We split the Korean chicken and skirt steak. Both were exceptional!! When we're back in the area, we'll definitely plan to visit multiple times during our trip. My only complaint was how tightly packed seats are in the cellar. The table directly behind us was sat a few minutes after we were and the guests were VERY loud, so it was hard to hear each other in the small space. Not a knock on P&P, just people not being able to read a room and realize they were disturbing guests around them.

It is simply decorated on the inside and outside of the space. They have an upstairs and downstairs outdoor seating area. They also have indoor seating upstairs and downstairs. It looked like they have a little grab and go bakery / coffee spot inside. Service: The service was great. All the people we met were so friendly and helpful. The place was very clean and well maintained. Food: We were blown away by the food. I was amazed by what we ordered. My husband had their 'Monte Cristo' sandwich and LOVED it. He said it was the best sandwich he's ever had. I had their 'Catfish & Grits' which were delicious. It was packed with so much flavor. I loved the pickled onions that came on top of the dish. The catfish and grits dish hit all the tasting notes. It was sweet, savory, and a little sour with the pickled onions. I LOVED it. We will definitely be back during our trip in North Carolina. We've been to several Michelin star and recommended restaurants and Pure & Proper should be on the list!

My boyfriend and I did have a chance to indulge in the bar area recently. That was very nice, as well. The bartender was friendly and just working on crafts while serving us.

Then my wife ordered the lamb stew with rice. Ugg that is what I wanted so of course I had to change my order. The stew was Fantastic, delicious, flavorful, did I say delicious. Now for me. I was looking at the pies. There was the chicken and mushroom, spinach and feta and then Kikki said"so you want the peppers steak. I said , well I guess so. Wowwwww great choice.

My husband enjoyed the roasted turkey with cornbread dressing. Again the portions were plentiful and the plating showed the kitchen's pride by making sure everything looked as good it tasted. I could go on, but suffice it to say that we went back a couple of nights later. The menu is so varied, we could eat here for days without repeating an entree. Thanks, BMB!
