    Cheesesteak plate
    Yousif A.

    Ok, so there are multiple levels of 5 star restaurants I suppose, but this was a 5 star experience. Quick and friendly service, delicious waffle and my wife loved her food too. Deliciously hit the spot. An all around 5 star experience.

    I had an amazing experience here with everything but the actual food that I ate. Hashbrownz were too greasy and the shaved steak was not the quality I prefer nore was the texture or flavor very good. I only ate half my food and I lost my appetite for almost the whole day. How was my experience amazing, well it was easy to find, easy to park, staff was friendly and helpful with great convo, the place was very clean, lighting was great, the listing goes on. I would go again, but I'd forsure make sure they will let me conduct the cooking of the hash browns. Lol.

    7/24/22: #1 - It is EXTREMELY HOT outside & gas is expensive, so I already didn't want to drive all the way here. My son just HAD TO HAVE Waffle House. We get here & the restaurant refused to take a call in order, so then we go online. Their site wasn't working either. So, we went inside only to be told they aren't taking to go orders!! WHAT IN THE WORLD?!? More than half the seats in this restaurant were unavailable/on top of the tables (not full with customers). They were only assisting 3 booths of people along the window while everything else was closed off. You mean to tell me we have to eat inside & would have to wait for those booths just to eat WH? Whelp, needless to say, we left and my son was frustrated. Oh well, on to a better place for lunch. We will never go to this WH again.

    Some of the staff were a bit grumpy, but several of them were very sweet and helpful! Waffle house is ofcourse a great price, tastes like your classic waffle house, and they had a very good health rating! For my first time at waffle house they did not disappoint.

    Waffle in the picture I had order the Allstar breakfast I eat it before I could take a picture the food were super delicious

    I mostly order online food be ok most of the time friendly staff always. But today I walk in I had even better friendly service I were greeted with a very friendly smile and my food were the very best this at 645am, the cook were awesome and he wanted to make sure my food were prepared the exact way I order they com communicated very well I really enjoyed my breakfast this morning everything was very good and hot like I like it like I said I do order online and it's not always hot but it's okay but today the food was super extra okay the cashier was very friendly the waiters and the waitress I was so sweet very friendly so first time in a long time being at the Waffle House on Hillsborough Street and I live right around the corner to have good food like I did this morning so keep up the good work Waffle House you got a five with me today 5 star.

    This is our table after 15 minutes of waiting. This Waffle House has gone down hill. The staff is lazy, can't take basic orders, or make toast.

    This location has great food and super nice waitresses. It was busy when we got there, but we were still seated quickly. Great experience!

The place was crowded but there was no wait. I got seated immediately at a table near a column in the middle of the restaurant and Christy came over and asked if I wanted anything to drink. She brought me iced water and gave me time to look at the menu. I wanted to try so many things and I was too optimistic about ordering 3 things and finishing them myself. Good thing I only ordered 2 things! An order of fried catfish with home fries and one egg. And a biscuit with sausage gravy. The fried catfish was salted and well fried. It tasted delicious for my first bite! The home fries were basically cut potatoes, but they weren't very fried or flavored. I wished I ordered the side of apple sauce instead. The biscuit and sausage was good, but a bit too much for one person after eating a separate order already. Definitely bring more people so you can try more things. Also, I wished I had asked for sausage gravy on the side so I can try the biscuit on its own first as well. Furthermore, I would have more time to eat the catfish so I wasn't worried about the biscuit getting soggy. Christy came to check up on me every now and then. The place was buzzing with people and decorations so I didn't feel so alone. When it was time to pay, Christy brought me the check for me to pay at the cash register. Both Christy and the cashier were so friendly! The restaurant does have a women's and a mens restroom if needed.

    This is one of those spaces that does half the work before the food even hits the table. It used to…read morebe an old-school diner, and a lot of that DNA is still there. The bones feel nostalgic, but the overall vibe is current and lively. It's the kind of place that feels familiar but still cool. Service Service is where things really clicked. Our server knew the menu inside out and guided us through it with confidence. Every recommendation landed. It also felt like one of those menus where it would be hard to order poorly. The Food The menu leans comfort food with a modern edge, and it's done really well across the board. We started with a Caesar salad with dill pickle dressing, which sounds like it shouldn't work but absolutely does. Bright, fresh, and just different enough to be interesting without trying too hard. The beet salad was also excellent, clean flavors and well balanced. Then came the pimento cheese with fried crackers. This might have been the sleeper hit. The crackers are dangerously good. Simple idea, executed perfectly, and hard to stop eating. For mains, the fried chicken was solid but didn't stand out the same way the starters did. The short rib pot pie, on the other hand, was exactly what you want from a dish like that. Rich, flaky, and deeply comforting. Overall Poole's is the kind of place where everything feels considered, from the space to the service to the food. It's approachable, well executed, and very easy to enjoy.

We opted for a reservation at the bar, and we enjoyed excellent service from Brittany and Kylie. They were attentive and very detailed with the excellent service that we have found out is the norm in every one of Ashley Christensen's restaurants. Our starter of roasted beets had an incredible blend of buttermilk blue cheese with white balsamic thyme, pickled pumpkin, and Marcona almonds. So yummy. Then my husband and I shared the Ricotta Gnocchi that we agree is the BEST gnocchi we have ever had the privilege of eating. So light in spite of a duck bolognese being the sauce. Fried rosemary sparked my home chef mind for future meals! We also shared the Brussels sprout upon Brittany's recommendation. One of the most unique preparations on Brussels sprouts ever with oyster mushrooms and a sherry cream sauce. We typically pass on dessert, but the description of their Pear Tart Tatin coupled with Kylie's verbal description hooked us and we were thrilled to enjoy every bite of the hazelnut praline ice cream that is part of this beautiful dessert.

    A Classic Diner Experience in Downtown Raleigh…read more Anyone who follows me knows two things I love very much: breakfast and diners (along with other short-order restaurants). I definitely found a gem in Glenwood South that immediately reminded me of the classic diners I grew up with in New Jersey. For readers unfamiliar with Jersey diners: think a no-nonsense, sit-down restaurant serving breakfast all day, great coffee, generous portions, and a menu built around eggs, griddle items, comfort food, and attentive table service. Tucker Street Diner delivers that same spirit--just set in the fashionable Glenwood South neighborhood rather than along a highway. Tucker Street Diner is located within the Smoky Hollow mixed-use development in the Glenwood South area of downtown Raleigh. Smoky Hollow is a large, modern complex featuring retail, restaurants, Class-A office space, structured parking, and residential units. The diner occupies ground-level retail space in the office building at 421 North Harrington Street, right at the corner of the pedestrian promenade along Tucker Street. The restaurant is designed as a modern American diner with nostalgic retro touches--checkerboard floors and glossy booths--blended with contemporary comfort and urban flair. It clearly evokes classic diner aesthetics while catering to a diverse downtown crowd. The menu focuses on classic American diner fare: all-day breakfast, burgers, sandwiches, specialty comfort food, and blue-plate specials. Breakfast options include pancakes, eggs, bacon, burritos, and creative dishes such as breakfast burritos and open-face sandwiches with gravy. Desserts, milkshakes, and coffee/espresso drinks are also available. I visited early on a Friday morning during New Year's week. I was greeted warmly and quickly served a solid, classic diner cup of coffee (likely a medium roast). Even with limited office activity that morning, the diner still had a steady flow of customers. I ordered the chicken-fried steak with two sunny-side-up eggs, home fries, and rye toast. The steak was nicely breaded, and the white gravy--served on a separate plate--was rich and flavorful. The eggs were perfectly cooked. The home fries were cubed potatoes (different from the shredded style often found up north) and were very good. Large slices of buttered rye toast, topped with both grape and strawberry jelly, rounded out what was a very satisfying breakfast. Portions were generous for the price, and the overall value felt right for a downtown, full-service diner--especially given the quality of the food and the attentiveness of the service. The classic diner theme and attention to cleanliness extended even to the gender-neutral restrooms, one of which is accessible. The accessible restroom was occupied at the time, so I used the other; it was clean, pleasantly scented, and well stocked. In short, Tucker Street Diner feels like a Jersey diner dropped into a Southern downtown--comfort food, eggs, and gravy instead of biscuits--with a welcoming atmosphere and reliable execution. I left full, satisfied, and already planning a return visit.

    This is definitely a cute diner spot with classic menu options. I got the diner jewel and I loved…read morethe pancakes, but everything else was just average. I will say the service was great though. Half of my food didn't come out when everyone else's did and even though it took about 2 minutes to get it, they still took all of it off my bill. That's how you do customer service! I'll definitely be back again if I'm in the area and try some different options!
