Starts with wonderful mountain location and attentive wait staff. Beyond the portions, the quality and taste of the entree's are top of the line.

Little parking available, and always a line. The dishes are well done and the sauce seems fresh made. Usually a mixed crowd of middle/upper, university types, and students out on a date.

A long-standing chapel Hill destination for nicer dining seafood. Always seem to have fresh fish prepared to your taste. Can't forget to mention the hush puppies like so many others.

Almost liike a greasy spoon diner. 'Chips' are good (hand cut spiral potato fries.

Huge variety on the menu. Breakfast foods are the favorite. A big local student hangout, especially late at night/early morning. food is decent.

Reasonable Mexican fare with some tex/ mex sprinkled in. Quick service generally. Not a big fan of the chips and salsa.

Pick the right seat and you can watch boats of all sizes drift past during your entire meal. Menu options are nice and you aren't forced to get the same old tired fried seafood. Nice wait staff as well.

I didn't realize this was a chain until later. Anyway, the steak sandwich does not consist of slices or chopped steak (like a Philly). It comes in thick cut strips so don't be suprised. Cheese and condiments made for a tasty sandwich once you got over the surprise meat presentation. Soup was good but pricey for the size.

Tiny little place in a strip mall. Normally get the pizza's which are quite good, but I keep hearing from other patrons that the pasta dishes and sauce are worth trying.

As fresh as any restaurant at the beach. Nice southern servers and good sweet tea. The plate portions are huge. While it is usually crowded, the line moves fairly quickly.

I was reminded of a not-as-well-done Moe's Southwest Diner. Not usually very busy, probably because nothing here to rate a huge following.

Finally got to go after living in the area a while. Known for its steaks so had to try it and was not disappointed. Service was not up to par perhaps especially for the price range. As noted, there is more than enough on the dinner plate to satisfy the hungriest diner.

Sandwich was pretty good, but did not like the soup. Chicken noodle I think and it tasted like it had been sitting for days. It was pretty salty too. Comparable to a Panera type eatery.

The food menu is limited as is seating space, but the reason to visit should be the dessert's anyway. We've special ordered cakes from here that were delicacies for the eyes and the tastebuds.

It's chain, but a far cry from Domino's or Papa J's. More like NY style with pretty good deals. Have heard that the sandwiches were good as well.

They have lot's of TV which is good for basketball tournament time. However, the service is very slow at this time as well (maybe other times too). Wait staff training in customer service (speed, promptness, getting orders right, etc.) is likely not a priority.

Poor imitation of Kanki. Old exterior and interior don't help with the atmosphere and the wait staff seem like they are just going through the motions. When you finally get your food its acceptable, but its just not an enjoyable overall experience.

Usually a good variety for a decent price. Lunch can be busy. Not fine dining, but serves well for quick lunches.

Not true mexican, much more strongly geared to tex-mex. Still the fajitas come sizziling and loaded with meat, peppers and onions that taste great and you can fix up how you want.

A local and longstanding favorite. There can often be long lines out the back door of this small town burger grill. The food is inexpensive, but you can't beat the taste. The best news for people living in Raleigh is that there is one on Hillsborough near NCSU now. Not quite as good, but pretty darn close!
