AAA Diamond Inspector Notes
This downtown diner boasts a retro vibe and one of the hottest chef-proprietors on the Raleigh scene. A curated menu of upscale comfort food is prepared with flair from ingredients so fresh, the chalkboard list of selections is updated weekly, if not daily. Roasted chicken is a popular choice. Other dishes may include seafood, amazing salads, pork and more. The mac and cheese, rich and golden with a brûléed crust, is legendary, deservedly so.
