The restaurant was fresh, clean, and they had menus overhead. I was welcomed quickly and I ordered a pitchfork salad. It was assembled quickly. You'll be asked about dressing, heavy, medium or light. I chose medium. The salad gets all mixed and covered with dressing and soon dispensed into a bowl depending on dine in or take out. I chose the latter. I enjoyed my salad. Fresh vegetables and ingredients. The dressing wasn't overwhelming. The price was good. Quick service and tasty salad, I'll be back again if I'm in the area.

Thursday night, with no expectations, we were immediately delighted by the welcome at the door, the great music and decor, and the menu as explained by our wonderful server, Drew. We shared 3 smaller plates that were set atop the most delicious sauces: Pickled shrimp with fried green tomatoes and fresh beans (good start); Crispy grits cake with chanterelle mushrooms (delicious); and Pillowy ricotta gnocchi bolognese (transported us to northern Italy). Now for mains. Drew recommended two items and we got both: Grilled wahoo with squash, okra and an unctuous sauce that made this deal like a meat dish instead of Jamaican-style fish; and Wood grilled local pork, sliced off the bone and atop another amazing sauce, with crispy onion rings. We enjoyed a lovely bottle of wine with the meal ( the approachable wine list is filled with options - from reasonable to "special occasion only" prices); again our server Drew recommended just the right one. We were going to skip dessert but glad we didn't after seeing every table have a warm chocolate soufflé cake with brickle ice cream plunked into the middle and chocolate sauce drizzled across it. So glad we ended the meal this way, with a glass of port. We cannot wait for an excuse to enjoy another treat meal like this in Durham. Put Nana's at the top of your list.

I am a fan and will keep them in mind for future visits. The Deets: I scoped out lunch possibilities on Yelp then found Page Road Grill not too far away and decided to visit since I've never tried it. Located near the Sheraton Imperial/I-40/Imperial Center area off Page Road in Durham, it's a short drive away for me. I was seated immediately in a booth upon arrival with no wait. The decor and appearance are nice, lending itself to either a casual (business casual more like) meal or a nice date night meal destination. My server was good to ask if I had any questions and got my drink order taken care of quickly while I read over the lunch menu selections. The soup that day was a bit on the spicy side and I appreciated my server letting me know so I decided on skipping, going on to order the Steak Frites. This meal choice did not take long and was well prepared (ordering it medium rare and getting exactly that). I do appreciate the overabundance of frites but would have been nice to have a bit of plate real estate for steak cutting, it worked out though when placing the ketchup and garlic aioli off the plate for space (both of those were very nice for dipping, I liked having both to mix it up). This NY Strip was good and flavorful, I enjoyed it as well as their frites (again, very plentiful serving of frites!). I felt the need for dessert so I went with their special of Limoncello Icebox Cake with coffee ordered to accompany it. The cake was delicious and it was a HUGE slab of it to enjoy! Service was good here for the most part as well. I am glad I decided to give Page Road Grill a try for lunch and will keep them on my radar for future visits.

I went on a…read morework dinner while in town for training and this was the perfect first place to stop and grab food during my trip! Since it was a Monday night I was not expecting the restaurant to be busy and it wasn't. Plenty of open parking, no wait at all, and quick to be served. I ordered the smoked brisket which came on top of burnt end hash, collard greens, and topped with a bbq sauce/gravy. The brisket was so tender and a really thick cut. I typically like leaner cuts of meat and the meat was perfect, not too much fat. The sauce also complimented really nicely. The burnt end hash was also really good. The potatoes were tender and soaked up some of the juices from the greens and sauce. The greens were cooked perfectly. Not too soft and still had some crunch to them. They had a lot of flavor and had a touch of sweetness. I would get a bowl of them to eat on its own for sure. My coworker got the pork chop with mashed sweet potatoes and green beans which she said was really good. Her plate was vibrant in color from the vegetables and the pork chop looked well prepared. For dessert we shared the banana bread pudding with strawberry ice cream. The bread budding came out warm which was perfect to go with the ice cream which tasted homemade. I'm a sucker for anything strawberry though. The bread pudding had slices of banana throughout and held together well when eaten with the ice cream. Service throughout the evening was good. We were checked on and brought refills without having to flag down the waiter. Overall it was a great experience. I know I'll be back to RDU at some point so I'll be sure to come back.

I was looking forward to the tuna for protein but they were out of it. I am not sure if they ran out of stuff or they don't stock up much, on a Sunday evening there were a couple of other people waiting to order when I went in. There was only once guy upfront (they were short staffed) and he was really trying hard to be quick and efficient. I was very excited to try the mac and cheese bowls too but wanted to try their regular bowl first before I experimented with the other stuff! I did a BYO bowl, with sesame noodles(served cold) they felt like shirataki noodles, broccoli & sweet potatoes and the huli huli chicken with the ginger cilantro dressing (I think). Sadly I was pretty disappointed with the flavor, and the portion size idk maybe the other bowl places around have spoilt me with the loaded veggies and base. If I ever do end up giving this place another try I would try to make it maybe on a weekday lunch, hopefully when they are busier and have more movement I'd love to try the mac and cheese bowls!

They had a nice arrangement of balloons outside to welcome us back. Initially as we moved inside the line moved slow, but then it picked up and moved at the usual pace, particularly for the amount of people who were there. The staff is friendly and seemed to be well trained and ready for the crowd, so no glitches that I saw. William is still at the helm and his leadership is reflected in the team. The original building was torn down and rebuilt from the ground up. There may be more parking avail in the rear than previously. The outside facade is completely different with stonework. Entrances are on either side of the building logo and a separate door for take out on the far right, which is a good improvement. Once inside it's a very open floor plan with little barriers whereas there were walls before. All new carpet, flooring, tables and chairs that are actually heavy to move. They give you your silverware after paying. The plates are no longer plastic, but white stoneware instead and are self serve as are bowls by the salad and by the ice cream and soup, which are white plastic. The grill is directly behind the cashiers station as before. Salad bar on the far left, also as before, and now the desserts are next to it, rather than the far right. Other hot food items are to the right of there, incl the soup. The food choices seem just about exactly the same to me. I did see an additional taco item aside from the make your own. The other is already prepared. Might be birria taco and a consume next to it. I wish they'd add the Mexican chicken stew that they have in Burlington cos it's killer! Missing at the dessert bar is the chocolate fountain and the hand scooped hard ice cream. Just soft serve chocolate and vanilla with some toppings, plus all the typical cakes, pies, cookies, etc. So, GC is back open with a new look inside and out. A few food items missing, but everything is the same otherwise.

The staff were all amazing, and they even kindly brought my dog a bowl of water. I had the shrimp & grits - I guess I should have read the ingredients better - I guess I was hoping for a more traditional tomato based type of shrimp & grits. It was a 6 out of 10 for me (I wanted a creole/tomato type taste perhaps & because I didn't care for the grits they chose to use - though the meal wasn't bad at all). My husband had the jalapeño chicken sandwich and he loved it. I had a small caffe latte (smaller than expected for the price), and he had an americano (priced ok for the small size). We also tried a vegan chocolate mousse (don't think the whipped topping was vegan but we were good with it either way) - it was very tasty. They were super busy, overall the meals weren't overpriced and I would definitely visit again.

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.
