Inside
Danielle V.

Fun place with live music and a big area and big bar. They live music all day and night which is cool. The service was great. We got a chicken quesadilla and it was really good actually. Bar food but it's not trying to be what it's not. Younger crowd at night but a fun place!

TLDR: Awesome bartenders, good but limited food options, loud DJ, numerous events and specials. Ideal for night life and live music. Too loud, young, and rowdy for my taste. I stopped in for a light meal and a drink around 4 pm. The DJ was loudly playing 2000s songs. I enjoyed the music, but found it challenging to communicate with the bartender due to the sheer volume. Their kiwi margaritas were advertised on a sign out front, however, they were out of the ingredients needed to make it. Nicole is one of the sweetest, efficient bartender I've met. She offered to make a spicy margarita instead. The margarita unfortunately had no flavor. Tasted more like slightly sweet and alcoholic water. I ordered a pork belly taco to accompany the drink. A bit pricy at $5 for one taco and $10+ for weak drinks. Rooftop seating is available as well as indoor seating at high tops and at the bar. TVs located in both areas. Dogs seem to be welcome inside and street parking is available. They do offer a variety of specials and host events regularly. Tin Roof seems better fit for the evening/night crowd or those who enjoy loud music.

I am done with this place. It has so much potential but is mismanaged so badly that I waited almost 2 hours for an order of nachos! Despite being busy they only had one bartender. I understand it's hard to find help these days but I don't see these issues at other establishments.

Live music on a Monday! Nuff said.
Brian V.

Don't kid yourself and think your going to get anything other than frozen & reheated whatever. If you want to listen to Live music and maybe never discovered artist any day of the week this is the place. Eat before you arrive and drink while you listen to maybe the next discovered artist or maybe not. Time will tell.

Chicken Tinga Taco & pulled chicken taco. Tater tots.

I love the atmosphere here. I have always dined upstairs on the balcony. Great outdoor area. The view is awesome. Nice downtown view of condos, restaurants & people enjoying life. Great place to people watch. The tacos were good. Great deal on 2 tacos & a side. Alli & Sebastian are an awesome team. They checked on my party & made great food suggestions. I'll be returning. I didn't have brunch today but I have had it. The chicken & donuts with peach preserve is my favorite brunch item. You have to try it.

Buffalo Nashville Hot Chicken Dip
Markiesa B.

So this was my first time here and I've been meaning to come to this place for the longest and finally made it on a Wednesday afternoon. I went during happy hour where the apps where half off till 630. I tried the Nashville hot chicken dip which came with plentiful of chicken and the spice level was perfect. I had one of the new drinks off the spring menu, it was some kind of margarita. They also had $4 wells so I grabbed me one. They had live music too and the upstairs patio bar area was nice. Didn't think the place was that big from the outside but inside it's pretty spacious and had plenty of seatings. I know it gets crowded here on The Weekend but I'll have to try it out one Friday or Saturday night. Also the bartenders were outstanding and very helpful.

DJ KJB
Jake G.

went here for karaoke night and signed up for a song. 3 hours later, we'ved reminded the dj 3 times, even offered to change the song (which was an extremely popular song to begin with and we haven't sung anything prior) and he keeps saying sure and then not ever calling us up. this place is despicable and DJ KJB is discriminative.

Good Times

Ask the Community - Tin Roof

Do you have to be 21 to get into Tin Roof on a Saturday night?

Yes

Is there Karaoke?

Yes, every Wednesday from 8pm-2am!

18 and up?

Yes, but be careful. They hire or let ABC officers manage the door so if you are under 21 and appear drunk or have a drink with you you will get a ticket that costs hundreds of dollars.

I love Birdie's for all meals! I've been for brunch and dinner, and I was pleased with both…read moreexperiences! Birdie's is located in the heart of Downtown Raleigh, right on Fayetteville Street. There is street parking, but also a parking deck right across the street. The decor is absolutely lovely, and it's spacious with a beautiful bar. There's also a cafe in the front if you just want to drop in for some treats to go or coffee. Although they have a nice cocktail menu, they also have a full bar if you'd like something that is not on their menu. On the brunch menu, they have an item called Mimosa Party, which has 4 different flavors: range, dragonfruit, pear, mango. I've had other cocktails, and they are all delicious and made to order! Now for the food. The food that I've had has been flavorful and very good. Also, they have a lot of options that aren't very heavy if you're looking for some lighter options. When I went for brunch, I had the Hippie Hash Bowl, and it was delicious. I didn't want anything too heavy, but still breakfast-related, and it was perfect for that. For dinner the last time I went, I had the Creamy Chicken Penne Pasta with Cajun seasoning and blackened chicken. I was trying to decide which dish to order, and my server suggested adding Cajun seasoning and blackened chicken to the dish, and boy was it delicious. I did not intend to eat the entire meal, but it was too good to stop. I've also always had great service with friendly staff who are eager to help. I'll definitely be back!

I didn't get my coffee until i was done with my meal, i must note it was delicious coffee. I would've understood if I had ordered some sort of latte, but it was just a cup of coffee. Not everything has to be artisanal, some people just want a simple coffee. Will return, just won't order coffee.

I wasn't too excited because it's not the type of place I'd usually pick, but I went to go along with the group. It ended up being the best place we went during the whole visit to Raleigh. First off, the biscuits and hush puppies they bring out to start were so good. They were better than the biscuits we had at breakfast at a nearby restaurant that actually specializes in biscuits, and the honey butter was intensely flavorful. I just ordered the 4 sides because I'm not a big meat person, and while they were good, once I tasted the cheeseburger someone else at the table ordered, I ended up stealing it from him. They grind the beef for the burger in house, and the quality of the meat is top notch. The service was also 10/10. I don't normally notice or care about service since I'm just in it for the food, but this is one of the few restaurants where I felt genuinely welcomed in. I will absolutely be prioritizing coming back here again next time I'm visiting.

Also, the deviled eggs for appetizers are a must get The service was good very fast to get your food out and the ambience was your cute. Typical Carolina barbecue restaurant.

We showed up early with our 1.5 year old daughter and they were able to seat us immediately. The area felt spacious, although that could be due to the fact that it wasn't super packed inside. I ordered the short rib benedict, my husband got the chicken & waffle sandwich, and we ordered my daughter a side of the mac & cheese. What a delicious meal! The short rib was tender and flavorful, and sat on top of a biscuit (what's not to love here?!) - horseradish hollandaise was the perfect touch as the horseradish pairs nicely with the beef. The chicken & waffle sandwich was the best guilty pleasure! Waffle crisp on the outside and fluffy on the inside, chicken breaded and fried with a nice crunch, and a nice hot honey syrup to go alongside -- wish this had a little more heat. To our surprise, the mac & cheese side was a highlight too! It's hard to get a good mac n cheese, but this had such a rich, white cheese, slight funk flavor - delicious.

The menu is massive which made it hard to decide, but our waitress was so kind and walked us through all of the popular options. I wound up ordering the short rib melt with mac and cheese. The short rib itself was really good. It had nice flavor and was cooked well. I do wish the melt would have had some kind of sauce or au jus element to it to give it some moisture because it was slightly on the dry side. The mac and cheese was unfortunately gritty, so I would skip that next time and try a different side. The drinks here are great. They had Mango Cart on tap which is one of my all time favorite beers. The cocktail selection is well priced, and I also got the gin fizz, which I loved. Not sure that Parkside will be a regular visit because the food was okay, but the vibes and drinks were great. Definitely worth a try if you've never been.

The first thing I…read morenoticed upon arriving was how dead it was, especially considering we went on a Friday night at 6:30PM. My boyfriend is a huge whiskey drinker and had been wanting to visit here for a while. He had heard that the best Old Fashioned were here (he said that it was not that great), and while they did have bougie cocktails, I settled for a margarita. Our server was very attentive and friendly. The atmosphere and decor were great! I am a plant person, so I loved seeing all of the plants. I love the open concept and exposed ceiling. But the food......was displeasing and unappetizing. I ordered the lamp burger, and while I ordered it as well done, I did not know that it would be presented overcooked with a charred outside. If you know lamb, this caused the meat to be extremely dry. The burger itself was very bland and lacked much flavor. My boyfriend ordered the Fireman's Chicken and by the looks of it when it came out, someone should have called the fire department while it was cooking! It was so burnt it was black. The only flavor present was charred meat and it was the most dried out chicken we have ever had (unfortunately I tried it). The collard greens were bitter with little flavor and the black-eyed peas still had crunch to where they weren't cooked all the way. To say all this, to have a $100 bill was HIGHLY unappreciated as it was one of the worst meals we have had in a LONG time. I definitely could see why they were not busy. The food was cooked terrible. And I will note that it isn't that I am picky, the couple next to us barely ate their meal and looked just as dissatisfied as we were. We would NOT recommend!

I understand as if you aren't seated when they open, you can expect a 90-minute to two-hour wait. I was hoping to get the Chicken Pot Pie this time and thought my prior visit was just off. I was thrilled that most of the menu was available. They were just out of the banana pudding. So I got to try the pecan wings I read about with the white sauce. It was so good. Then I got the chicken pot pie and biscuits. The pot pie had old biscuits for the topping, but the creamy mixture with large chunks of chicken was delicious. My biscuits came with honey and were served warm. I left with a slice of the chocolate-caramel-coconut cake, a side salad without onions, and a fried boneless thigh. The salad was made correctly, and the dressing was included. The salad was full of veggies, and the cake was rich and moist. Service was friendly and as soon as I finished my iced tea, another appeared. My wings were brought out first and it was a while for the rest of the meal as the restaurant was full. But they didn't rush me at all. I actually liked the space between the dishes, as I might not have been able to eat it all otherwise. I couldn't finish both biscuits and was even provided a container for the honey. I am going to miss Beasley's, but I'm glad I got a positive experience to remember the restaurant.
