    Sausage egg sandwich
    J M.

    The food was freshly prepared on a grill and was hot and tastes good. I had the sausage breakfast sandwich with egg. The tater tots were hot and taste good, but I'm not a big lover of tater tots. Overall, food was okay, but greasy. The man who took the order was not friendly or did he offer any answers about the food, except to say the menu is on the wall.

    Highlight: after ordering, my food was delivered within 5 minutes. 5 stars Staff: Employee taking my order was blunt, but competent at her job and even gave me recommendations for drinks that weren't on the menu. Ordering process was quick and easy. Keep an eye on your meal as they're preparing it, I had to stop them from putting all the toppings on my burger. 3 stars. Food: No many food options here in North Carolina airport.. this food was okay, not great, but not bad. Fries had no flavor and the burger was dry. Traveling all day for work, I'm just happy to get some food between flights. 2 stars. Ambiance: This restaurant has many seats to sit and eat. I hear no music playing, just the sounds of surrounding conversations. 3 stars Conclusion: This is a good place to eat if you're short on time. Food was okay. Seating is okay. Overall (5+3+2+3)/4= 3.25 stars

    Tasty burgers made to order. Service is fast and employees nice and flexible. The dinning area is clean but nothing fancy. No wine options but several bottled beer options were available. Their onion rings were nice and crispy. Expect airport prices: I paid $20 for a burger, onion rings, and a soda.

    Loved it. I had the grilled chicken sandwich. My bf the double cheese burger. Fries and onion rings. The onion rings were delicious and so fresh. The service was great, really friendly people. They keep their sitting area clean and organized as well. Would keep eating here when I am at the airport

    Although overpriced for a burger, fries and a drink, this is the airport where $12 doesn't go very far. Ingredients are fresh and you order your personalized sandwich just the way you like it! Toppings include mayo, ketchup, mustard, onion, pickle, lettuce, tomato, and chili for free. Extra charge for cheese, bacon, slaw, jalapeños, and dipping sauces, but they gave us honey mustard for free. Burger is not overcooked, unlike most fast food burger joints. Instead it was slightly pink and warm in the center. North Carolina's own Cheerwine is available to wash it all down. There was no wait, we're still in a pandemic so the airport is not very busy at 4:30pm on a Friday afternoon in the Southwest terminal. Glad to see masks enforced, dining area socially distanced, staff masked and gloved.

    $9.00 for a huge plate of customizable, tasty veggie nachos and a Fat Tire for under $5.00? That's a good deal outside of an airport, let alone in one. So, hurry. Get here before people start finding out. The salsa Rita's is tucked into the corner in the Southwest terminal gate area, partnered with Char Grill. Fast, good food, incredible value and friendly service.

    Steak bowl
    Jillian S.

    Good place to grab a quick, customizable meal at the airport. It is pricy, like most airport restaurants. A large combo with a chicken quesadilla, chips, salsa, and Gatorade was $15.57. Chips and queso are $3.99. The regular size steak bowl was $11.19. I like how the menu items are customizable so that you can make it as healthy as you want. The orders are completed accurately and quickly. It is conveniently located in terminal 1 and was right by our departure gate. Ana fulfilled our order, she was efficient. We would eat here again if hungry before our flight.

    Egg and cheese breakfast sandwich ($3.99)
    Navin K.

    Good for a quick breakfast at RDU airport if you get there before 5 am, when most other places are closed or still moving so slow they're of no use to anyone in a rush. There was a line for precisely this reason, but it moved quickly. I ordered an egg and cheese sandwich (less than $4) and it was ready in just a couple of minutes. Delicious, fresh eggs and melted cheese on a warm bun - exactly what I needed at 5 am. Will be back next time I take the ridiculously early flight from Raleigh Durham to the Bay Area.

    Fantastic staff!!! While the airport experienced lots of cancelled and delayed flights, this staff helped a lot of frustrated and tired folks - and they did it with complete understanding and professionalism. Great food and super staff!!!

Pretty neat rendition of a traditional product. I had a Heat wave burger, which I thought was going to be really spicy, but was pretty medium, for me... I am from NM, though, so I have a little bit of a spice skew. The burger was nicely cooked, and although the fries came out cold, they remade some for me that were hot and pretty good. They also had a nice beer and cocktail selection, so if you are in the mood, you can get your hop or wheat on, or marg... Nice looking spot on the inside, with either ample table or bar seating, so take your pick. This is the spot where they just announced that the theater will be closing, and demolished forever... in Park West, and I did notice a lot of closed businesses, but that I think is a separate issue relating to the ridiculous rents that they are asking for in Wake as a whole.

This was my first visit at this one; we took two seats at the bar in the middle of a Saturday afternoon. Both the dining room and bar were still quite crowded. It took a little time for the bartender to clean the bar area, but we took our seats once that was taken care of. The bacon cheeseburger on steroids is not to be missed, especially if you're depressed. Da burger, three pieces of jalapeño bacon, three pieces of smoked bacon, Monterey Jack, bacon mayo, shredded iceberg lettuce, tomato, red onion & pickles. The only thing missing...the angels singing in the background. And don't overlook the Emilio's chicken sandwich, it's a gem. A crispy fried chicken breast topped with fresh mozz, jalapeño bacon, poblano mayo, guacamole, shredded iceberg, tomato & red onion (just need pickles on the side!). The fries are hand-cut, always a major positive. I do wish they had honey mustard for dipping purposes. But the BDs sauce is still fine. Onion rings are solid enough too, they're nice and thick and come out quite crispy.

This spot is literally right down the escalator from checking in, near C1. It's almost kind of hidden in plain sight, which is why I missed it two previous times. Now that I know about it, I'll likely return. Their menu is small but it's more organic offerings. I did the grilled cheese and tomato bisque, which was perfect. There was seating for me to work and eat, which helped. The only downsides here: no draft beer and the sun coming in can make it hard to work on a laptop, depending on where you sit. Server was prompt! I had a beer and wine and enjoyed myself since it wasn't too busy like the other options. Pricing wasn't bad either. Now that you know about this place, save me a seat!

I would be hard pressed to find better at most of the airports I have visited in my time. Sure it's expensive, like all airport food. Sure, you are likely to get the better version of it at their non-airport locations. But if that is all that is holding you back... time to admit the situation you are in and just take what you can get. Centrally located right after security, take away and dine-in service as well as bar service, hard to get more convenient. I sat down for a light lunch before my flight, and went with their kicked up grilled cheese with a side salad. Also helped myself to an iced mocha and a cookie. First of all, both the coffee and cookie were as good as any outside of an airport, so those were definitely wins. The side salad was very simple, but the dressing was excellent. Felt good to get some greenery in me to offset the cheesy sandwich. The grilled cheese had plenty of cheese on it and made for an excellent cheese pull prior to eating. Bread tasted nice and fresh, and their blend of cheeses was zesty and satisfying. Would return to La Farm next time I'm awaiting a flight at RDU.

They open the original at 10:30 and by 11:30 a line had formed, that could easily stretch for blocks of a pleasant day. There was even a Shack Cam, a webcam which allowed potential customers to see the length of the line they were walking into - this became a great marketing tool! In the 1990's thru 2014 we would travel to Manhattan at least twice a year, and Shake Shack was just the kind of unique foodie spots we would search out. We ate at the original spot over 20 times, always arriving early. The company started in NYC in 2010, expanded in other areas soon, and went public in 2015. Danny Meyer, who started the hot dog cart to aid an art project in the park, was already in ownership positions with quintessential Manhattan restaurants like Union Square Cafe, Gramercy Tavern, and the very eloquent Eleven Madison Park, among others. I have eaten at the spots in Raleigh, Cary, Chapel Hill, and two in Charlotte, and like most great spots that expand, it is just not the same (see Whataburger). The food is decent, more so at some than others (no real surprise there), but the uniqueness of lining up in Madison Square Park to buy a burger or a dog, or crinkled fries that didn't totally suck, doesn't translated well to a fast casual spot in a shopping center. Like with Whataburger, I'll move on down the line!
