Here for dinner, party of four. The fried green tomatoes were excellent! Do yourself a favor- if…read moreyour party is larger than 2 people, order the hush puppies appetizer - the few you get with your meal aren't enough. Had a variety of the meats- the smoked turkey was superbly moist and just the right amount of smoke. Baked beans were the star of the sides- sweet, tangy and warming. Of the coleslaw options the mustard was the best, sharp, punchy and crunchy! Service was prompt and cheerful! Enjoy!

After finishing a hike nearby at Occoneechee Mountain, my friends and I stopped by Hillsborough BBQ…read moreCompany craving something hearty. Despite the busy lunch crowd, we were seated immediately, and service was fast, friendly, and very much in line with that classic Southern hospitality vibe. Unfortunately, the food didn't really deliver. Portions felt small for the price, and the flavors were pretty underwhelming. I ordered the quarter-pound brisket with fried okra and mac and cheese, but nothing stood out. Sauce options were also limited--just a vinegar-based and a tomato-based option. We also noticed some quality control issues: one friend received burnt toast, while mine was barely toasted. Overall, the service was great, but the food fell flat. I'd probably try a different spot in the area next time, though BBQ options in Hillsborough are fairly limited.

We celebrated my 70th birthday at Nomad last Thursday, and it was a truly unforgettable experience…read more Sharing this milestone with my daughter and granddaughter was made even more special by the restaurant's welcoming atmosphere and the wonderful, friendly interactions we had with neighboring tables. The food was absolutely delicious. My daughter loved her salmon tikki skewers, while my granddaughter and I thoroughly enjoyed the flavorful butter chicken. A standout highlight was the peach spritz mocktail, which I highly recommend! Between the exceptional service and the stellar vibe, we had a fantastic time and are already looking forward to our next visit. Charlotte W.

First time coming here and it did not leave a good impression. Came in with my husband and the…read morerestaurant was not crowded. We were seated promptly but sat for over 10 minutes with no greeting or acknowledgement that we were there. The waitresses brought drinks to and checked on several tables around us and did not even say that she would be by in a few minutes to get us started. On top of that, the water glass at the table had a lipstick stain on it. We decided to leave and when walking to the door, the greeter asked us if everything was ok. We told him that no one ever came to the table and all he said was ok and went back to what he was doing. Very disappointed in this as some of the dishes around us looked good. Oh well.

Early Barber appointment in Hillsborough had me looking for breakfast soon after and Yelp reminded…read moreme of The Village Diner that was conveniently on my route back to the office. Not having the time to sit down and enjoy the meal (which I kind of regret after arriving to pick it up); I placed the order through the TOAST App and it was a very easy, straight-forward menu and ordering process. I went simple with a B-Y-O Biscuit of sausage and egg with a side of home fries. I really appreciated the choices of egg style on the biscuit customization menu and went with scrambled for this one. All of that washed down with a simple black coffee. Ten minutes later and I'm at the restaurant that's an easy, short jaunt from downtown on King Street. It occurred to me then that I'd been here once before when it was in the whole building but that was years ago. The new space is cozy, with a down-home feel of mason jar light fixtures, vintage signs, and just a nice diner vibe. A few minutes after arriving, I received my order and was out the door, pleasantly happy with an affordable breakfast in my hand. The food was excellent, the sausage tasted almost local, and the egg was perfectly cooked and proportioned. The biscuit was perfectly baked, slightly fluffy, with a buttery flavor that complimented the sausage and egg. Next time, I'll add a spoon of blackberry jam or apple butter and I think it would knock it put of the park. The home fries had good flavor, but I forgot to ask for any condiments, so eating them plain was a bit of a frustration, but they had a dusting of spices that worked. The coffee was piping hot, fresh, and what I would call standard fare diner coffee.... but you're not here for the coffee. All in all, highly recommended and I will be back, though maybe for a lunch meal next time.

I've been wanting to try this place for ages. I was in town so made a special stop. The building…read morelooked so new inside and out I thought maybe they relocated from another spot, but no, just updated the bldg. I think I caught them a a lull coz I was the only one there. It have me a chance to chat with the owner or mgr, not sure which, but either way, nice guy. They have a pizza joint next door that's open in the evening. I'm not really into biscuits so had a bacon, egg and cheese on potato bread. I was surprised that it was a half sandwich, but Bread Shop bread is so big I guess that's why. It was very tasty, although would have liked the bread a bit more toasted. They make their own pepper jelly on site so had that on the bread. It's not too spicy, but does have a bit of a zing. What I didn't use I brought home. If I'm in the area again I'd def give lunch a try.
