    Chicken pad Thai with no bean sprouts
    Jada H.

    I love when to-go orders taste like it was made with love lol I preordered ordered Chicken pad Thai with no bean sprouts and was told it would take 15 minutes to be ready which was accurate. I drove 15 minutes back home and the food was still really hot! It has a really great flavor! The staff is really nice as well. I recommend.

    Incredible food! Our server was so fun and energetic! The group was huge and our entire order was perfect, hot and big enough for multiple meals!

    Good food and great service! Authentic Thai cuisine. Great for a larger group for people.

    Red curry with chicken
    Ray L.

    Overall pretty good. Started with spring rolls that were great! Had the red curry chicken was really good but full of the bamboo sticks. I got mild spice and it was perfect. The medium spice in the pad Thai chicken and the orange chicken was a bit much. Only thing was a had to flag them down to order and get water.

The atmosphere immediately took you to Cabo San Lucas, I was greeted with extremely professional, accommodating and cheerful customer service. I was there to buy lunch for the crew at Tuckers, to go. The server offered me water placed beans, salsa and chips as I waited for my order. the food came out quickly, I didn't have time to finish my beans, salsa and chips I asked if I can take them to go, the server brought out fresh chips, beans and salsa. The price was reasonable the serving where big. I am a chef myself, the Owner Jose came out introduce himself, as I mentioned I was having my Vehicle repaired I had walk, two blocks, Jose had one of his employees give me a ride back to Tuckers so I didn't have to walk in the NC humidity. I also noticed a high number of Military personnel dinning, they are Veteran owned. I was so impressed at so many levels, I returned the following day for lunch with my daughter who is also a chef. Im not one to eat out or compliment other peoples food however, when I do find an eating establishment that deserves to be praised I will praise. I gave them a 5 star my daughter gave them 5 stars also Tuckers gave them 5 stars a crew of three so we give them a 25 STARS !!!! We are going back today.

    I got the Chimichanga and a bottle of beer. The chips, salsa and bean dip was good. Typical…read moreMexican restaurant with loud decor and a big menu of all the usual items. Server was friendly and helpful. Prices were fair, plenty of free parking.

Twisted Grape was selected for a birthday celebration based on our previous experiences. Family members drove from Cary and Southern Pines to have dinner together. Order for four (4) drinks and four (4) meals placed- Thirty (30 minutes) later NO drinks and NO meals. Reataurant/bar was not busy (25% occupancy). No rational reason for what transpired next. After - (1) salad , order of nachos and 1 beer brought to table. No other drinks for other 3 guests at the table. Fifteen minutes later still NOTHING.... When Manager and server questioned wrong drink orders arrived at table but NO food . Remember this was a birthday dinner! When food finally came out- steak was over-cooked -medium versus medium rare, salmon was dry and wrong sides delivered., broccoli was "mush" and ranch dressing for wings was consistency of milk. Disgusting. Finally, had new server, Channah stepped up and took charge.trying to remedy this nightmare. Manager should be fired!!!! Channah prevented us walking out of the door. Totally unacceptable and preventable occurrence. Whomever owns Twisted Grape establishment - take action before all customers have to experience Feel free to contact us - we would all happily provide additional comments and insight.

My child has a service dog. Not a pet but an Actual Service Animal that is trained the Dog wears a bright pink vest/ harness with very large and clear patches that say Service Animal. In the past it has never been an issue. While sitting at the table she usually goes inder the table and my kids chair. Never makes a sound Her focus is always on my kid and nothing else. Tonight we walked in and was met with an awkward stare from behind the counter. We didn't even make it 3 feet in. I said hello. I asked if it were a problem. That we have been here before and never had an issue. His response was for him He had an issue. I replied she is a Service Dog. He repeated that he had an issue with it. Not want to create a scene and cause more stress for my kid we left. while we were leaving I heard a woman say to her husband, it says service animal. What I can not believe is that this is a Military Veteran and Active Duty community. We are not the only ones here with a disability. It's a shame. While we love the food I will not ever be going back

I set up a reservation as there was going to be six of us and it was lunch time. We arrived and we were sat immediately. The time factor became slower and slower as our waitress frequently disappeared and we had to seek help from other staff to help us. We ordered our food and drinks together and it took over 40 minutes to get them despite it actually just being five of us. There were not many other people in the restaurant, so we couldn't understand why we were ignores. Well, when we finally got our drinks one of my coworkers had a cracked glass and finally was able to get a new one more than 20 minutes later. Our food didn't come until after 1pm despite ordering at 12:20, we were patient, but the time was a bit factor with having enough staff and little to no customers. The food was just okay, but a little too salty and not enough real flavor and spice. The double broccoli was probably the best part. I could tell it was fresh and was pretty delicious. Overall it was okay, not sure I would return or recommend due to the lack luster service and time factor.

Normally I go straight for brisket or ribs, but they told me they're known for their burnt ends, so I decided to try the burnt ends plate. After I paid and sat down for a bit, they came back and told me they had run out of burnt ends. They offered to substitute another meat and refund the difference. I switched to brisket and told them not to worry about the refund. To their credit, they gave me whatever burnt ends they had left along with the brisket, which I appreciated. Unfortunately, the meat itself was disappointing. At first glance, the brisket did not look promising. The slices were very lean with almost no visible fat, no smoke ring, no pink, just gray-brown throughout. The bark was minimal and patchy. It looked dry before I even took a bite, and it ate exactly how it looked. The meat was firm, tight-grained, and lacked moisture. I ended up having to drink water between bites and could only finish about half before taking the rest home. The burnt ends weren't much better. They were dark and sauced on the outside, but they also leaned dry instead of tender and juicy. Not the rich, sticky, melt-in-your-mouth burnt ends I was hoping for. I got baked beans and potato salad for sides. I'm not sure if they make them in-house or if they're premade, but they were decent. Not amazing, not bad. They just didn't make up for the meat. I really wanted to like this place, especially after they recommended the burnt ends so confidently. I appreciate that they tried to make it right when they ran out, and that was good customer service. But at the end of the day, barbecue lives and dies by the meat, and this just didn't deliver.
