    Jerk Chicken plate
    Leah L.

    The amount of flavor in one to go box is off the chart! I ordered the small plate and there was enough for 2 meals. Highly recommend. The staff is friendly, service is counter order and fast, food is great, and the price is right!

    Brown stew chicken with vegetable rice and cabbage.
    Desiree H.

    Wasn't impressed with the meal or 1 particular staff member attitude. 2nd time trying food at this franchise and neither location did it for me. Pricey and not very tasty compared to some of the other local favorites. Perhaps it was the brown stew dish particularly or the fact that it was dark meat. To each his own!

    Curry goat, rice and peas, fried plantains, and steamed cabbage
    Felice B.

    (I rarely give 5 stars so 4 is pretty good.) Bright, busy new location of the NY chain located near BJ's just south of 540. Staff is entirely masked, as are most of the customers. Limited indoor seating and pre-ordering available. The staff is super friendly, polite, and helpful. We tried: Spicy beef and curry chicken patties - excellent. Curry goat - tasty, good amount of heat, and not too bony Brown stew chicken - nothing really wrong, just not my favorite rendition locally. A little sweet tasting. Salt fish and ackee - on the breakfast menu but may be available later in the day. I'm not into salt fish, but it got good reviews. All meals ordered were Small and the servings were very generous. Meals come with rice and 2 sides. We opted for rice and peas, which were very flavorful, steamed cabbage, which needed a little salt, and fried plantains, which are what they are, which is to say sweet and delicious. The salt fish came with dumplings, which had a warm spice flavor. Escovitch fish is cooked to order and takes about 20 minutes so ordering ahead would be a good move. The restaurant also has various Jamaican beverages and baked goods.

    Oxtail (Side Only)

    The Ox tails are delicious! Fall off the bone tender with great Jamaican flavor. Three stars for me only because the Mac n Cheese was very bland and small on top of a small portion. Chocolate cake was decent could've been more moist. The Ox tails made up for the other two.

    I'm not a fan of anything too spicy or extreme on the heat level but Golden Krust's Chee-Zee Beef Patty was soooo good. Too good actually because I went and ordered another one! The perfect flaky crust and the delicious filling with the perfect amount of spice. Not too overpowering. Which I loved. We also ordered the Curried Chicken Roti ( eating soon! ) The workers were so friendly and patience with us as we ordered. They greeted us with a smile and helped us in a timely fashion. This location has plenty of seating, great music playing at a reasonable volume, plenty of parking, and two TVs as well playing a range of things. The ambiance was very welcoming, open, and inviting that we sat down to eat for a little while. Can't wait to try other things on the menu!

    Delicious! I had been craving some oxtails and was in the area and decided to give Golden Crust a try. I am so glad I did, the amount of food, and flavor was perfect for me. I will gladly drive 30 mins to this spot anytime. The server was patient as I made my choices they had so much to choose from, lol. I was very impressed at the cleanliness. I'm totally going back!

    Curry Curried Goat
    Gabrielle H.

    the service is always fast and the people are friendly. I absolutely love their ackee and saltfish but the curry goat.....terrible. It has the be the nastiest Ive had in Raleigh. The taste is off and the aftertaste is even worse. I will stick to the breakfast

    Browned chicken with rice, cabbage and plantains

    Browned chicken with rice, cabbage and plantains. This was my first time eating here and I wasn't disappointed at all. Great service, clean restaurant and good food. I asked for the extra sauce. Although it was good I won't recommend it since it comes with enough.

If you live in Raleigh, you've heard people rave about Boulted Bread - from their titular bread to their morning bun to their croissants, they have everything a carb connoisseur could desire. I visited with a friend on a Tuesday morning (they currently are not open on Mondays) and it was busy. I ordered their seasonal fig leaf latte, the morning bun, chocolate croissant, and a tartine that was kind of like a pizza on a piece of bread. The latte was delicious - it has brown sugar in it, which was perfect as the iced version. The morning bun was delightful - probably my second favorite morning bun/cinnamon roll in Raleigh. The chocolate croissant was filled with chocolate ganache - which I was not expecting - it was messy but also very good. Lastly, the tarine, which like I mentioned, was kind of like a pizza on a piece of toast - it had cheese tomato sauce - simple and savory and tasty. Overall, I felt Boulted Bread lives up to the hype. A Raleigh classic that is a perfect stop for a morning treat.

My tip is to walk over to the Platform apartments and sit in the common areas under there. The biale was a little hard, maybe because it was early afternoon. But morning bun was good. They had sold out a fair amount of the pastries by 2, but still had lots of morning buns. The light in the building is very nice. Good place to get a treat!

A lot of their drinks and gin based, which I'm not the biggest fan of, but I always find something I can enjoy. The service is great and relatively quick, and everyone I've met there is kind and willing to help. The inside is a bit small, so smaller crowds are better and it does tend to get crowded later in the evening and on weekends. The outside street sitting area is nice too and hopefully will be fully fixed soon. Overall a great places to stop for drinks and desserts after a nice meal! And the menu rotates seasonally so you'll always have the chance to try something new!

Fun fact: the owner named the Patisserie by combining his two daughter's middle names. When you walk in you'll feel like you've been transported to Brooklyn with a touch of Parisian elegance mixed with downtown industrial vibes. To order you'll walk up to the counter and place your order. Once your order is placed you'll grab a seat wherever there is an open table. For coffee I ordered the vanilla latte and my partner ordered the iced caramel latte. The vanilla had a nice balance of flavor and the ceramic cup was a nice touch. For pastries my partner ordered the cookie and the ham & cheese croissant. Both were excellent, with the cookie being more of a shortbread cookie with dark chocolate and the croissant having great flavor and plenty of ham and cheese. I ordered the Nun'Ya Biscuit which was like nothing I've ever ordered before. It was a biscuit seasoned with smoked cheddar cheese, breakfast sausage, scallions, and complete with sausage gravy inside the biscuit. You definitely need to order the Nun'Ya Biscuit if you stop by Lucettegrace. Definitely looking forward to our next time visiting Lucettegrace.

The lemon one was sweet and tart and the violet one had almost like a floral taste both were great! And to drink I got a chai latte with oat milk, super strong chai taste and not too sweet. Super quick and friendly service. There's plenty of seating, WiFi and outlets available. Perfect for knocking out some work.

Whatever preconceived look she was expecting I don't know. I'm not expecting anyone to smile like I'm someone's long lost relative, but I am hoping in this world to be treated with kindness that I offer as well. Civility would be welcome. I honestly felt like they couldn't wait for me to leave the store which is a very odd and uncomfortable experience. Oddly enough, the case was kind of empty. They had their signature cinnamon rolls and pecan buns, which are always on point, but the vibe was really off today.
