Service was SSSLLLOOOWWW. It felt like our server was not interested in serving tables. Even basic things like topping off our water, seemed like it took forever. He needed some training on etiquette, when our bill came he was hovering over us paying, it felt like being bullied to tip him a certain amount. Honestly the tip was forced, for the service we got it wasn't worth much of a tip. Then only after paying did we noticed charges that were never told to us while ordering. Why would a server not notify you if something is extra or an up charge? When we brought it to his attention he seemed to not care that we didn't know or that he didn't say anything, nor did he take the initiative to correct the problem. Management may need to spend some time on upping the servers game. Training is key to success. Meh experience.

The only reason this doesn't give five stars is because the coffee service from Morning ritual for…read morethe goat is a little slow. Other than that, I highly recommend. Wanted to check out what Durham had to offer during my stay in Raleigh, so hopped over Line and came to this cute cafe! The residents living in the apartments that were built next to this place are pretty lucky! Our server told us that The Goat holds a lot of activities for them and the pool area is a nice place for residents and restaurant customers can hang out and play games. We got the biscuit flight. Perfectly buttery, fluffy on the inside, with ample crispy edges! The honey and berry dips were god, but the pimento cheese dip was out of this world! I like pimento but I'm not the biggest fan because everyone makes it differently. My pet peeve is a Mayo forward pimento. The Goat Pimento cheese seems to be made with cream cheese and I didn't taste any Mayo, so THIS is how I prefer my pimento cheese! I couldn't get enough of its savory goodness, then going for a honey or berry dips for that sweet salty sensation. The coffee service was annoying. Our server brought out the biscuits before the coffee, so I asked about it. About 3 minutes later a girl came with my husband's cappuccino and my coffee was in a glass filled to the brim with ice. I immediately said, wait I didn't order iced anything, I drink my coffee hot and she immediately snatched it and walked away without saying a word! That was a strange way to treat a customer who has not only been waiting for late coffee but when the coffee came it was all wrong! We were almost done with the biscuit flight by the time my Lavender Honey Mocha with Oat Milk HOT came out. I will say that it was a delicious cup, however! Worth the wait??? Well I ended up asking my server for a to go cup for the coffee. The last nail in the coffin of The Goat not getting that 5th star is getting a plastic to go cup for a cold drink. By this time I realize they were never gonna get it right. So I just pulled my warm coffee into that plastic cup, prayed the microplastics and toxins from the plastic cup would spare me this one time and kept it moving.

It's been a while because I debated leaving a review here. Been here 2 times and the service is…read moreSLOW! Not only slow but some just flat rude. We wanted to give them the benefit of doubt and saw they had love island watch parties. We came early to secure a spot. Told the host why we came and he sat us right by the TV. We waited for it to begin. We tried to order the theme drinks and were told no because it's only when the show begins. (Mind you this was 10 mins prior to show time) Then the show was supposed to begin and none of the tvs were on the show. We watched them play with remotes for 15 mins. Still they didn't put it on the half of the bar were 4 groups were waiting. 30mins into the show we didn't see our server, no one told us it was only showing in the pool area. Us and another table had to get up to see it was on the other side of the bar. Mind you, there was no sound for a WATCH PARTY! So people were reading subtitles. Finally our server came and apologized about it not being on our side. We asked for the check and she charged us for those drinks WE NEVER GOT! That were sitting at the bar for 30mins. (That if you remember we couldn't order?!?) Then she hands us the drinks when we asked, now melted and still we had to pay for them even though we were literally leaving.

Epic Chophouse in Raleigh comes across as a polished steakhouse with a strong service reputation…read moreand a more classic upscale feel than a trendy one. The biggest draws are the steaks and seafood, with reviews and the menu pointing to dishes like fried oysters, pan-seared scallops, jumbo lump crab cakes, and fresh fish as the popular orders. The atmosphere is refined and welcoming, the service is frequently praised, and the food is described as solid to excellent, especially if you like a traditional chophouse experience with seafood options alongside the steaks.

Looking for authentic Irish pub vibes in North Carolina? Trali Irish Pub absolutely delivers!…read more I had to order the Shepherd's Pie, and it did not disappoint. Rich, slow-cooked beef stew topped with a beautifully swirled layer of creamy mashed potatoes--it was the ultimate comfort food. To pair with it, I enjoyed "The First Squeeze," a refreshing wheat beer from a local North Carolina brewery that complemented the meal perfectly. I planned to skip dessert...but then I spotted the Baileys Cheesecake on the menu. Resistance was futile, and I'm so glad I gave in! It was the perfect sweet ending to a fantastic meal. With its warm, authentic Irish atmosphere, friendly staff, and delicious food, Trali Irish Pub is definitely worth a visit. Sláinte!

I needed a nosh before a meeting and who doesn't love an Irish Pub?…read more This was my first time visiting Trali and won't be my last. It was about 6pm and the dining room was about half full, but everyone seemed in good spirits and many were watching the World Cup. The hostess sat me at a table near the entrance and facing the bar, I had a book with me to catch up on and planned to read a bit. Within a few minutes, the server came around, showed me the beer list and asked if I wanted anything else. When she returned, she saw that I had a book and very attentively asked if I would like to be moved to a quieter table... yes please! She mentioned that a 16 top was due any minute and they'd be taking up the large bar top in the center of the room, and it'd probably get pretty loud. She then talked with the hostess, and they moved me into, the library, of all rooms... how apropos... It's literally adjacent to the open bar area, but walled off and with a definite library vibe. I was sat in a corner table and with perfect ambiance. Looking over the menu, I couldn't really decide on a dish, but I wanted something more traditional Irish. I finally chose the Boxty potatoes topped with corned beef and it was a perfect portion. Everything came out to the table quickly, perfectly hot, and portioned well. I loved the mix of flavors and textured from the baked mashed potato to the shredded corned beef, and finished every single bite. I finished two chapters of my book and was pleased to see another patron in that room also reading. All in all, a night well spent and will definitely return when I'm in the area.

She has an incredible memory for her regulars, mixes fantastic drinks, and creates an atmosphere that makes everyone feel comfortable.

If you're at Carolina Ale House in Brier Creek, I highly recommend sitting at Sarah's bar. You'll get excellent service, great drinks, and the kind of hospitality that keeps people coming back. She truly sets the standard for what a great bartender should be.

Highly recommend the Evil Noodles; zippy, spicy sauce, grill charred mushrooms and veggies and the super wide, pillowy rice noodles. I'm not a noodle expert, but they tasted/felt hand pulled; forgot to ask! I'd like to go back at least 20 times to try everything on the menu. They also have a group menu for private events and plenty of space to host a large group. We saw some of the family style dishes and sushi going by and it was first class.
