    The Mediterranean
    Melody B.

    A great restaurant for comfort food! I came here on a Saturday afternoon with my husband for lunch. It was crowded with almost every table taken, but luckily there was a high top near the bar available that the host led us to. The server greeted us and took our drink order immediately. I was extremely pleased reading the menu. They had a ton of appetizing options, so it was almost difficult to pick something. A good problem to have! I landed on sharing the Fried Brussels Sprouts as an appetizer with my husband and The Mediterranean (with a side salad) for my meal. The Brussels Sprouts were addicting. The Mediterranean was a delicious grilled cheese stuffed with pesto, provolone, feta, avocado, & spinach on wheat. Relish is located in a shopping center with other shops and restaurants attached. Parking is plentiful. I highly recommend if you're in the Raleigh area!

    Alfredo Mac

    My daughter invited me to join them for brunch and it was such a nice day we sat outside. I decided to get chicken Alfredo Mac and cheese. Th egg it Mac as nd cheese is the best. It's very creamy and cheesy using corkscrew pasta. There was loads of chicken in it as well. The flavor was amazing especially the crispy cheese on top.

    In looking at another location, the name Relish caught my eye. I got on the waiting list just in case. When we got there outside seating was available so we were seated fairly quick on a Friday night. The ambiance is dark and bourbon bar like with bar seating, a dining area with tables and booths and outside tables. There is a section inside which sells sauces, candles, jewelry, etc. The menu is fairly extensive with many options. The Bourbon list was even more extensive. The staff were friendly and service very good. I got the Popper sandwich, which was like a jalenpeno popper on sour dough. Not quite as cheesy as I thought, I'm a cheese nut, but was delicious!. I loved rhe side of creamy cheese grits as my side. Hubs got a side salad, which was quite large, and the bacon jam burger. The bacon jam was the best I've had thus far. Great burger. I highly recommend upgrading your fries to these fries with bacon. It was the best spend of $1.50. They had bottle of wine specials. With every red purchase, the winery donates to help keep the ocean clean. It is a little pricey, but I feel worth the money. We will be back to take another family member for the Bourbon.

    Fried Green Tomatoes

    Visited with my family of 7 for my daughters birthday. The online join list allowed for a short wait time. The dining area is cute and able to seat our group. Hostess and waiter were good. Service wasn't special but solid from start to finish. Their menu was amazing! Lots of great choices. So many that two of us placed multiple orders, because we couldn't decide. The food was really good. My favorite app was the pimento cheese fritters. My daughter got a complimentary order of donuts for her birthday, which was a nice gesture. We live on the opposite side of Raleigh, but we'll certainly return.

    On my most recent visit, the service was great. Our server was really helpful with recommendations. The food seemed like a Rush job. The Brussels needed a glaze. They weren't seasoned and the cheese wasn't melted all the way. The blackened tacos came loaded so it was hard to pick up and eat on that corn tortilla. My friends fried shrimp was better than my dish. My friends enjoyed their bbq nachos, Cajun mac, a chess pie (ask for it served warm), and banana pudding.

    Banana Pudding in a Jar

    I don't understand how a waiter has no gloves on and brings out dog food and water bowls and serve the dog there. Two minutes later she serves the customers I'm just thankful she wasn't my waiter but made us all wonder what's going on back in the kitchen area. The food was very mediocre runny ranch dressing a house salad came out with two croutons??? The Brussel sprouts Parmesan cheese didn't even melt the shrimp and grits bread was the back of a hoagie roll wasn't worth the money disappointed but banana pudding was good

    I had dinner here with my friends on a Friday evening and the whole experience was pretty average. Food, service, and atmosphere were all fine but unremarkable. Nothing was bad by any means but at the same time, nothing really stood out or blew me away.

    Country Fried Steak Platter
    Lexi G.

    Loved our time here! Was a nice date, great southern food and had a romantic feel with the lights on each table. We ordered the fried green tomatoes with cheese on top (no feta) and they were delightful. I had the county fried steak platter and partner had the southern Mac and cheese bowl. All was 10/10! We can't wait to come back. Oh! And the sweet tea? Amazing!!!

    I came here for lunch with my parents on a Sunday and the food was amazing! This is a great place to have southern food. I got the Santa Fe Burger and it was cooked perfectly medium rare and full of flavor. My dad got the BBQ Nachos as his entree and while we didn't like the green salsa that came with it, the nachos were tasty as is. My mom got the Black and Blue Chicken Sandwich and she enjoyed it with her side salad. We were sat at a table near the bar and I enjoyed the decor and vibes. Service was fine. I can't wait to come back and try something different!

It took a while for the waitress to come over and take our order. The restaurant was not busy (other than our table there was only one other) and it took 10 minutes to be asked what we wanted to drink. Then it took another 10 minutes for the water to show up and to have our orders taken. I ordered the Bad Ass Burger with fries. The fries arrived cold and floppy. I let the waitress know the fries were cold and she graciously took then and had them remade. The second set, arrived hot and floppy...and were unseasoned. The burger itself was terrible. The meat patties were not seasoned and overcooked (ordered medium arrived well done). Ultimately, the food was just disappointing. Lastly, I saw one of the cooks vaping over the food.

Service could be better, but it's not bad. Decor and the bar were very cool and well designed parts of the restaurant. We ordered the Alabama Slammer and Classic Cheeseburger with truffle fries. We received regular fries at first, but were able to get what we originally ordered (truffle fries) after talking to the servers. If you order the truffle fries, make sure to grab a fork or extra napkins (or both)! Eating them gets real messy. Overall, a nice, casual burger spot in Raleigh with great fries.

Located in the newer section of North Hills, CowBar is a more sophisticated rendition of their Morgan Street Food Hall location. Very similar with maybe a few extras, you order up front, get a number, self-service soft drinks and condiments in the back and wait for you eats. Pick up your meal at the counter and it's time to eat! I did their popular truffle burger with fries Italiano and OMG! The burger was amazingly tender, rich and delicious. Tender grilled beef, smoky Gouda cheese, caramelized onions and truffle flavoring throughout. The skin-on fries with shaved parm, rosemary and garlic made for the perfect side. While the bar is not open yet, it looks like CowBar North Hills will have some beers and drinks to go with your burger. Overall I am super happy with what I experienced at CowBar. While the food is a touch pricey, it's totally worth the money and a better option to dine here, versus a crowded, noisy spot. Enjoy, Raleigh. You may have the best burger in the Triangle with CowBar!
