    Good food. Quick service. No matter the time the service is great. Nice staff (Pedro and Francisco)were awesome. The food is a decent price. My family and I go for the nachos.

    Very clean place. Service was good. Burrito Mexicana was just so so. I would choose something else if we ate here again.

    The food here is always delicious and reasonably priced! I love that they have tamales as well. Give them a try, you won't be disappointed.

    The food was pretty bland. As if they didn't season it at all. The salsa was just okay.

    It will make a turd. Food was nothing to write home about and the portion was not fit for a POW.

    Do they serve horchata here?

    My wife has given up because every one we've had uses the thick fries and we like the thin fries in our Californias, so now she just orders a carne asada burrito.

    Lucci Blue's in Downtown Varina is a cozy, stylish spot with thoughtful décor. The menu offers a…read morenice variety of coffee, wine, beer and tasty food options. They only offer one beer on tap but if you head to the back there is a cooler with cans. I've tried the honey pear flatbread, baked brie, bruschetta and hot honey, crispy prosciutto flatbread and affogato with amaretto. They have a small retail space with wine and items available for purchase. This spot is a must visit.

    I heard about this place yesterday morning and I was intrigued to where it is located since I'm…read morealways in this area. I thought there's only the bar and grill there. So while I was around, I decided to look for it and we found it. It looks big on the outside and when you go in the left side, your gaze will lock into this spot to your right and it will suddenly transport you to an Italian villa to park yourself on the couch. I wanted to do this but our eyes caught more, the walls, the other cozy table and chairs, the bar like set up to get your coffee, tea, refreshers, or simply eat there. Along the wall by the cashier, they offer to go treats, dark chocolate bars, beef jerky's, cheese bites, high end chips... the pastry display will soon be packed with other goodies that they get delivered. Right now, they have muffins, lemon bars. I also saw a deli meat since they will be serving charcuterie too. By the back door to the patio, they sell bottled drink of all sorts, some I've never seen. We bought a refresher and a chocolate bar that I thought were delicious. The chocolate is of high quality and will bring you satisfaction. The wine area, located to the right side can be closed off for private events or other events. They will offer wine tasting, bottle that you can purchase whether cold or room temp. Once the area is fully finished and stocked, this will be a beautiful spot. The bathrooms are gorgeous and spacious. You will need to check it out for yourself. Lastly, the owners are so nice. I've never met them before but she is the warmest being. She gave us a tour, explained to us how they operate and that soon she will be posting events located above the building where you can enter at the door with an awning 2a. Also, soon, if you are seating outside in the back, you can tap at the small window to order a drink. How convenient is that? Right now, please be patient as they still work out all the kinks to perfect their spot. It is a nice place to go while we wait for our children doing sports near by.

We tried 8 different ones, and all were excellent! The pesto and salami one was my favorite. The inside of the restaurant is pretty dimly lit, but we didn't mind and it helped create a cozy atmosphere. The outdoor patio looked nice and could be a good option for daytime. Our waitress was very attentive and let us know about the seasonal specials. They have a board and wine deal on weekday nights that we're looking to try next. Would definitely recommend for a fun night out in the Village District with friends or a date!

I have been to Postino many times before, but this was my first time at the Raleigh location. While it's been 4 years since I've had Postino and the menu has changed a little, the bruschetta board is still a permanent fixture. We ordered a bruschetta board for an appetizer and I ordered the half panini & half salad for my entree. The bruschetta board is a must order because you can get 4 different kinds. The top tier choice is the salami pesto one. It's my absolute favorite. For my panini, I got the caprese one on ciabatta bread and the half of the mixed greens salad. The salad was delicious. This was a ton of food and felt very satisfying. I always love the vibe of Postino's, but this location was way too dark with only a small candle at the table. Service started off good and we were able to order our food without a problem. However, our server was done with his shift right after we ordered so we got a new server. Our new server had no idea we already ordered and was a little behind coming to our table for water refills. Despite that, we were in and out of the restaurant within 45 minutes. Postino is surrounded by other shops and restaurants, so they had a ton of parking available outside the restaurant. Highly recommend this place if you want good food!
