    The food was very good. My only complaint is that it took a lot of time to arrive and we had to eat quickly because we had tickets for a concert.

    The restaurant has a great atmosphere, and the food was good, with interesting choices. Unfortunately we missed the jazz band that plays on Sundays! It was a nice night for sitting outside, but the inside dining area looked very inviting and comfortable. The wait staff were attentive and very nice. The bar is also an enjoyable place to linger, with a very congenial bartender, an innovative drink menu and a good craft beer selection. Very nice addition to Durham’s restaurant and bar scene.

    It was a nice setting. Got there around 5p and it was pretty dead. The table had smudge marks on it and so did the mirror behind our seats. Handprints and smooch marks on the mirror. The employees use the same bathroom as the patrons so you had to watch employees come out of the kitchen, use the bathroom, and then go back into the kitchen without hearing the hand dryer on for very long. Drinks were good but pricey. Food was good but salty.

    Poor service. Poor food quality. Food took over an hour to come to the table. Bar tickets were “lost”. Food came out wrong and after the server came by 30 min after it came out and it was brought to his attention it was wrong, he didn’t do anything to make it right. There was multiple engagements where the manager could’ve made things right and they totally dropped the ball. Our bill was $430 so you would’ve thought they would value our presence but it was quite the opposite. Very disappointing.

    One of the best restaurants and breweries in Durham! Unique atmosphere with a perfect blend of modern and traditional brewery foods/drinks. Dined on the Bullpuppies for our appetizer and the had the Bacon Smash & loaded beer cheese fries, and also had the NY Strip Steak. Everything was cooked to perfection.!The food is not your typical brewery bites and the cocktails are even more impressive. Will most definitely be coming back here to enjoy the rest of their menu!

    Service was quick and friendly. We enjoyed the atmosphere and cocktails. The truffle fries and gnocchi are delicious. We will definitely be back. It’s close to DPAC and nice for a meal before a show.

    Amazing service and food. I was impressed with their selection of beer, their knowledgeable staff, and the delicious food choices. Food came out quickly and server was attentive. Try the scallops - you won’t be disappointed! We will be back soon.
