    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!!!

    Slow, sloppy, service. Mediocre food. Rough after a long day of travel while trying to catch a plane.

    It's been a while since I had Lonerider's beer and at one point it slipped my mind to write a…read morereview about it but then I realized there was still a review I haven't posted yet for the brewery and decided to rectify that oversight. We had three different beers from this brewery, one in which appears to be no longer in production. The discontinued one was a pale ale by the name of Peacemaker. It was refreshing and enjoyable to have. Flavor features with this beer are that typically seen with a pale ale which are hoppy, malty and sweet. The beer is very light bodied which is nice and very smooth. Unfortunate that it's out of production. The other two beers we had are still being made. One was Shotgun Betty which is a Hefeweizen. Not bad but sometimes I struggle with Hefes and the strong banana clove flavor which was the case here. It was good that it was light bodied like most Hefes are and smooth also. The final beer was the Sweet Josie Brown Ale which I think was my favorite. The sweet, malty and coffee flavors are very enjoyable and like the prior two beers a nice smooth body to this fine dark beer. I am glad I recalled this brewery experience as I felt it was important to post the beers we had and what we thought of them!

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.

If it's a beautiful day, I'd definitely recommend sitting outside instead. Still, the inside has a cozy, laid-back feel that works well. Shoutout to Qua, who was both the hostess and our server. She was welcoming, attentive, and handled everything smoothly, even as a few more parties came in while she was the only one serving at the time. One thing I really appreciated was that she let us know upfront what items were out of stock before we even looked at the menu. That level of transparency is huge and makes the experience so much better. My son ordered a slider with fries from the kids' menu. It comes with just one slider, so I ordered a second, definitely the right call. He enjoyed it, and the fries were cooked well, just a little on the salty side for our taste (ketchup helped balance that out). I had the shrimp tacos. It's packed and perfect portion for lunch. The shrimp, pineapple slaw, and chipotle mayo was a nice mix. The restaurant was clean (including the bathrooms). The location is also a plus, super close to the Art Museum, which makes it a great stop before or after visiting. Overall enjoyable, and I'd come back, especially to try more of the menu and the drinks.

The vibe was warm and woody like you expect from a place called the oak. We did make a reservation just in case they were busy. We were seated in the bar area so the bar tender was also our server. He was kind, super attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu and drink offerings. We ordered pomegranate mimosas. They were a delicious and refreshing addition to our girl time!! I ordered their new Salmon BLT and my friend ordered the Meat Lovers Omlette that was served with gouda grits. The salmon blt lived up to my expectations. It was light but filling and super flavorful. The star is the red onion and dill aioli. My only complaint is the bread. It's tasty bread, it's just not sturdy enough fpr all of the sandwich ingredients. I would have appreciated if it were something thicker or served as an open faced sandwich. The sweet potato fries were fresh and crispy. The fresh pepper sprinkle on them gave them a new dynamic for me. My friend enjoyed the meat lovers omelet and she let me taste the gouda grits. OMG talk about flavor. I'm going back just for those damn grits!! I like very textured grits and these were that on top of perfectly seasoned and cheesed! Geeze!!!!!!!!!! Besides their massive wall of spirits, another component that i appreciated was their inclusive restroom offerings. The door signs are genius! This place looks like it's also great in the evening and late night. They certainly earned a customer in me! Can't wait to go back for more grits!!!!

Christmas time is beautiful, as they decorate the ceiling with garments and ornaments and other decorations around the massive restaurant, but reservations are needed no later than 6 months in advance. If you're fine waiting 3 hours for a table max, then you will be fine. Every single time we come to Angus Barn, something is different. Now they give you a soup or salad with your meal, along with bread! The cheese and crackers are famous among the people and are a great way to start your meal. The bread is so fresh also! All components in their house salad is great. Everything is awesome! The prime rib is tender and has such good flavor. Their mac n' cheese is the way to go. Their recipe is constantly changing. Like what I previously said, something is different every time you come to Angus Barn. The chocolate chess pie is the best I've had. This is a MUST when dining at Angus Barn. You HAVE to get the chocolate chess pie. The service is some of the best in the restaurant business and all do a great job at explaining things. So kind and professional! Once again, if you're around Raleigh and don't come to Angus Barn, you are missing out. I highly recommend you come. So good!
