As a visitor to the Durham area, I absolutely loved this place. The lamb loin(?) was fan-freaking-tastic! Well seasoned and cooked exactly as I wanted it. The orzo and broccolini were also a good pairing - especially since I've never had any of what I ate. My only critique is the mussels appetizer. It was tasty. But for the price, I expected them to be meatier.

Working in town for the week and this place was across the street from my hotel. Stopped in for dinner and the food was great! I had the mussels and the lamb sirloin! Mussels were delicious and the lamb was cooked to the perfection! Both dishes were delicious! It was nice an quiet and service was good! Definitely a good place if you want a delicious meal!

What a great find! Came for an early dinner on graduation weekend. Staff were all attentive and friendly. Food was all amazing, albeit was served rather quickly, so we felt a little rushed. Maybe it was because we had an early seating. It was fine for us because we had a hungry group, but would def like to revisit and enjoy each course with more savor next time. Check out this hidden gem next time you’re in Durham!

Fresh and flavorful. Good service. Slightly older restaurant with wear and tear but still pleasant atmosphere. It's a mix of families, couples, and during the day business lunches.

Don't let this places location throw you off. It's a bit odd being next to a convenience store but the food is excellent. I think the menu has plenty of great options. I took my family here for graduation and everyone was so pleased with their food which made me very happy. I recommend this place for any special event with family as the atmosphere is great. Huge huge plus is they are very accommodating for people with allergies. They accommodated special drink requests for my family members and I can't say how thankful I am that they did. I think we enjoyed our stay so much we actually closed the place that night and stayed outside even after employees walked out to go home. NOTE: I was not so in love with the food or service when I came earlier this year for Valentine's Day but that is to be expected it was incredibly packed and service was clearly overwhelmed. Please go here any other time. This does not affect the review because most places on abbreviated menus are not as good as during regular service.
