Beautiful and bright space!! Bring your sunglasses! Jamal, our server, was great and attentive. The steamed mussels are very small but the sauce and bread they're served with are too delicious to even really care about it. Pro tip: take home some of the leftover mussels and the sauce (in one of their plastic containers) and put it over some angel hair pasta at home for a delicious meal!! The lobster pizza was amazing! Will Definitely go back! read more

Excellent food, vibe, atmosphere and service! Special kind of place. Unexpected and memorable.

This place left me speechless, everything about it was simply amazing, from the atmosphere to the food, the staff truly made the experience awesome, the passion and pride they felt showed in the service they provided us, even though this is a new restaurant, it will not be a secret for long, this hidden gem will be flooded with people from all around and I can honestly say that they will not be disappointed when they arrive. The food and drinks were amazing and I can't wait to go again to try other foods on the menu. read more

First time eating here, these are my first impressions: Tucked away and hidden among some business offices, this place is such a beautiful place to eat. Arrived at about 10:45am on a Saturday for brunch. The waitress was pleasant and she was being shadowed by 2 more. The manager welcomed us in while we were ordering and came to our table to check in while eating. To start, we ordered mimosas and lattes which were perfectly balanced in sweetness. Our mains were also very fresh and yummy. We had one complaint for each of our plates, the Turkish Eggs needs a more porous pita to soak up the poached egg yolks and the Grit Bowl needs a lighter hand on the smoke flavor on the tomatoes. I love that the menu is reflective of what is fresh/available from their farm partners, but I can see how the menu might be missing the mark of perfection from the changing ingredients. Overall, great experience and I would love to return to try their dinner! read more

Really a cool place. Excellent pizza. Charcuterie board large and tasty. Nice wine selection. Good portions. Open and airy

Upon arriving to the location I was a bit thrown off by the neighborhood but it ended up being such a cool spot. The interior was beautiful and worth the checking out in its self. Went with my SO and we got the bread appetizer to get started... which we then received after the food (we ordered the bread when we ordered drinks, ahead of even ordering the other food). The server was very friendly and went and checked on the order after asking, and it came out quickly after. The bread was mostly good, but parts of it the crust had off flavors. I believe it was due to the cast iron pot it was cooked it. For the meal we tried to Caesar salad, which was good but what we really enjoyed was the pizza. The pizza was phenomenal. Not sure the exact name but it had hot honey and pepperonis... so well balanced! I could've easily eaten another one. We finished the evening off with a nice dessert, the blood orange crème brûlée... it was delicious and a wonderful way to end the meal! I think the food and ambiance was overall great, but I do wish there was a little more acknowledgement of the fact our bread (appetizer) took nearly 30 minutes to arrive. I will be checking it out again! read more

They had great service and had great decorations. You can sit indoor or outdoor. The food was delicious.

Pretty restaurant. Love the ambiance. The only problem is the food. As a group, we ordered various dishes. A couple were decent - watermelon gaspacio. Overall, it was an OK experience. read more

I need more than 5 stars here! The restaurant was spotless, beautiful and had us ooh-ing and ah-ing upon our arrival. I couldn't get over the light fixtures that looked like white roses. The photo doesn't do them justice. Tiffany, our server, was fun, polite, and polished and attentive to our every need and wish. The bartender made me a very delicious cocktail and we all ate culinary delights until we could barely breathe. Everything was melt in your mouth delicious. The smoked pork chop was a family favorite but very hard to choose between so many hits. Braised Beef cheek with creamy yummy grits was also mouthwatering as were the prawns. What a wonderful experience. read more

I love the vibe and decor of this place. The service was also great. I came in on a Saturday for brunch and it wasn't crowded at all. However, the food was not for me. I ordered the pancakes and it was a little too burnt for me. The bacon was burnt, dry, and covered in pepper. But the worst part for me was how the water tasted like soil. I was parched because of the dry food and I didn't want to drink the water. read more

We had a wonderful time at Glasshouse Kitchen entertaining our son visiting from Denver. The food, of course, was sensational and our server was really fun. To top it off, the bartender made a Oaxaca Old Fashioned for our Colorado boy that was up to his exacting standards! read more

Sat at the bar. Great service. Refreshing cocktails - leaded and unleaded. Try the pork and potato pizza.

Great food (fried chicken sandwich), great craft cocktails (manhattan) and the bar tender (Greg) was fantastic. Great atmosphere and very clean. Will be back when I'm back in town. read more

The food is ok-good, but certain items like the Cauliflower Curry Pizza are outstanding. The cocktails are yummy and strong, but quite small. The decor and ambience are superb. The service is quite good. read more

Had been to Glasshouse previously for dinner on a business trip and really enjoyed the experience - service, food and ambiance was very inviting. Decided to bring clients for a business lunch. Another great experience. It is always difficult to find a restaurant that has decent vegan options. Glasshouse fulfilled that requirement. The cauliflower pizza was yummy and met the mark. Smashburger was delicious and so was the turkey sandwich and the salads were very good too. The topper was the pineapple upside down cake - to die for. All of the dishes are very comparably priced. Glasshouse will be one of my go-to restaurants in the RTP area for future business meals. read more

I am giving this two stars in large part because we ordered trout that was clearly salmon. Just change your menu to salmon and stop trying to convince people that you serve very pink trout. The order of service was also not great. Drinks came out after appetizers and then main course came out about 5 minutes later. It seemed chaotic. At first, the room looks beautiful, until you notice that all the plants are fake. Then it seems weird. Sort of like the fake trout. read more

So impressed with this place. The location is a little inconspicuous upon arrival. It's located within a bunch of office buildings. But it's a gorgeous addition. The name glasshouse is so fitting. There's floor to ceiling windows pretty much all around. Simple but elegant aesthetic inside. We sat at the bar and shared a bunch of different items. The soup and local greens salad were simply amazing. The bread as a starter is a must. We each tried different pastas. I got the crab linguine, it wasn't my favorite but still good. The short rib gnocchi was very flavorful. The portions are very generous. The dessert was mind blowing Good! I can't remember the name but it was a dark chocolate, mousse/gelato situation. It was just wow. Oh...the drinks were too. We enjoyed ourself so much that we came bach for lunch a few days later. Give it a try! read more

5 for ambiance, 4 service and 2 for food. I got mussels, the broth was so bland. The focaccia was hard. But it didn't matter bc the broth was tasteless so I didn't have a lot of motivation for dipping. Bread service came out 10 min after our food. Bread wasn't anything special, it was dinner rolls. Not worth $7. My friend got the root salad, very small. She said it was fine. My other friend got the cauliflower pizza, also not remarkable. The ambience and cocktails were fantastic, might return for drinks. read more

We thoroughly enjoyed our lunch at Glasshouse and look forward to many more. From the interior design, service and most importantly-food we were very happy with the entire experience. Several friends have recommended Glasshouse and we were so happy to visit. We live in Charlotte so when we come to visit our NC State student we will return. Lots of fresh and delicious flavor pairing and gorgeous presentation. Looking for another reason to drive up and eat there-was thinking it would be a great graduation celebration destination as well. Definitely felt like eating in paradise! read more

Ambiance is great and the quality of food was good. Service excellent. Parking was a bit challenging.

Worst chicken sandwich I've ever had, over cooked, rubbery, and extremely over salted. And the French Fries, well, they were an absolute soggy mess. Take pride in your cooking, please. read more

This place is fairly secluded but the riches of this restaurant are well worth searching out. The ambiance and aesthetic are top tier and the food matches in every way. The seasonal menu was great and I can't wait to experience what's to come! The appetizers, especially the bread appetizers were out of this world and the steak was fantastic! Be sure to try the "apple a day" cocktail! Go here...today! Go! read more

The pros 1. Great ambience - what a beautiful place and location. 2. Good parking - plenty of parking and a good parking lot. The Cons 1. Service was unfriendly throughout right from the reservation to the actual dining experience. We got to the restaurant 5 minutes before our reservation time and were told they tried reaching out. Their patio is closed for the day, and they can't accommodate our party of 3. That is not a right start, considering if the customers didn't confirm the cancellation, they should have expected the customers to show up. When we ask for the earliest availability, they say, it will be an hours wait. The messages / call was sent 45 minutes prior to the reservation, and that gave no time to make other reservations in the area for a Sun brunch! After a lot of back and forth of trying to ask for different options, seats at the bar/clean up a patio table, and they agreed to set up a table for us. We thought this would be the end of the initial unpleasant experience and the start of the good dining experience. The hostess allocated to our table had a horrible attitude. She didn't offer recommendations or any insight about the place or popular items. We ordered 3 mimosas, she dint recommend that we can get the pitcher and share. There are multiple juices you can get your mimosa with, this isn't mentioned on the menu (our hostess asked us which juice we wanted it with). She rushed to our table, took our order, and then didn't show up for 15 minutes with our drinks. Agreed, it may have been a busy kitchen, but getting some estimates about how long the order will take would have been good. We ordered the sourdoughnuts as the appetizer, and she said, "I will bring them right out." There is no news for the next 20 minutes. Meanwhile, she missed bringing out the coffee. Brings the coffee but forgets to bring a stirrer, we ask for the stirrer, and she brings out a long cocktail stirrer, for coffee and says out loud, "You are VERY welcome!" Lol. And each time a request was made, it was as if she was doing us a huge favor. 2. The food overall - the sourdoughnuts were dense and very cinnamon heavy. Our table ordered shakshuka, it was brought out with overcooked eggs. The curry cauliflower pizza I ordered was extremely dry. I learned the salumi pizza was good. 3. The prices - the prices are really high for the quality of the food served. I would not go here again unless I learn about changes the management has taken to improve the experience for their customers. read more

Wanted to like it but it is really underwhelming compared to other options in Durham. Food is fine! The service was really rough, and it's quite expensive for what you get. Went for a seated dinner so it might not be the same for a normal dinner, but the wine pairing was late every time. I expected a lot more for a Valentine's dinner. read more

Tab and new chef worked hard to ID ways to accommodate my allergies resulting in an excellent meal and great service.

Tried this place for the first time and experienced Great service, food and the ambiance makes for a perfect trifecta for fun night with friends or a romantic dinner. The cocktails were unique and tasty! Will definitely experience again! read more

The perfect inflection drink is my all time favourite. If you are lucky you'd have the Lobster pizza on the menu which I would definitely recommend! read more

Absolutely perfect food and ambiance. I was there for business but I think it would be a great date place and I might go back with my wife. A wonderful room with a midcentury modern skyscraper vibe. It was too cold to sit on the outdoor patio. That looked nice but it's a lot more casual than the inside, so if you want a classier date, sit inside. The cocktails were great and the food was amazing. I had the best fish I have ever had--it was a whole fish, served with the head and tail and everything. It was referred to as "a bluefish with a yellow tail" which I hadn't heard of, but regardless, it was excellent. I went on a Saturday and made a reservation, which was important because all of the tables were full. read more

If I could do 1/2 stars I'd give this place a solid 3.5 - it's a cool restaurant and the greenhouse concept is cool, but for the price I wanted a little more. My food was colder than I'd prefer for a pasta dish and their version of an espresso martini was not my favorite. Overall, good vibes and the bread service was delicious! read more

The food was absolutely amazing! It was the perfect spot for a date night. Our waitress made very great recommendations for our food and drinks.

Overall, it was a good experience. Our service was great (thanks, Ashley!), the cocktails were really nice, and the ambiance and the setting can't be beat. So, it's a memorable place with a cool but not too snooty vibe (from 5:30-7:00pm on a Saturday night). Contrary to other reviews, this is a place where you can bring a well behaved tween kid or a baby to hang out on your lap, and you can wear nice casual attire (jeans totally fine), and it's not too loud for a conversation. The food was so-so. We tried a small plate (burata) which was interesting and pretty tasty. We also tried the fried fish for two which was decent but the flavor of the fish was underwhelming while the flavor of the sauce was overwhelming (pretty spicy and tangy). The jasmine rice surprisingly held that dish together. We also got the farro verde which was well seasoned but didn't have much kale at all and some of the farro grains were hard (either not cooked all the way or dried from sitting out). We tried the blood orange creme brulee and the pistachio ice cream both of which were pretty good with solid flavor (maybe they should go a little lighter on the creme brulee crust next time). So, the food wasn't a good ROI for the cost, but the cocktails, service, and the ambiance were superb. We'd be back for the cocktails and ambiance for sure. read more

Very classy and elegant setting. I only experienced the lunch menu which was a decent variety of options I would have liked to see more options though. The service was ok. Maybe I'm used to above and beyond service in Texas but, I felt ignored half the time and feel like I was only served when I called for attention despite sitting at the bar for several minutes in a nearly empty restaurant. Hoping to try the dinner menu later this year when I'm back in Raleigh-Durum for work. read more

What you'll notice right away is the modern, elegant, smooth decor. It is hard to beat! The staff was very professional. However, the entree my friend ordered as well as the one I ordered we're disappointing. My portion was very small for the price and the bake on the chicken needed improvement. Presentation, however, was tops! I'd give them a second chance. read more

We came here on a Sunday Brunch for my husband's birthday. We were all so excited because we heard great things about it and we know its location and interior were unique! The restaurant is definitely beautiful... much of the walls were cathedral ceiling glasses. The hanging greeneries were beautifully displayed and the vibe is just amazing. The staff were attentive and very professional. However, everything stops there, unfortunately! We had sourdoughnut... it's ok. The chicken biscuit was huge and presented in an oddly way. The chef used the dark meat not the white breast meat that normally would come with chicken biscuit. My husband had shakshuka verde with supposed poached eggs, but came with essentially hardboiled eggs... He was not too happy. I had the benedict salmon and I know I had made better dish than this. The smoked salmon was overcooked and the eggs were ... guess again... hardboiled, and the potatoes were not seasoned. We came not just for the ambiance. We came mostly to enjoy the food. Overall, I do NOT recommend Sunday Brunch at the Glasshouse. We paid too much for a meal that was not nearly worth the price! Please go somewhere else. read more
