    Carmel Latte
    Jennifer C.

    Delicious Carmel latte. Bring a book or a laptop and sit in the cozy ambiance. Friendly staff.

    Finally stopped in and was surprised of the display of God. Needed a spot like this. A place were God is in everything and displayed with no fear; the people, staff, food. A very peaceful atmosphere. Ordered french toast and orange juice. Comfort food is always good. They have turkey sausage if you do not want pork. They don't have wifi at the moment but will be getting it soon. Looking forward to returning. God bless!

    Always wanted to try but they close pretty early. Finally got a chance today - no school and for a leisurely meal. Nice and quiet. Chicken salad on a croissant- pretty good. Am I the only one who complain too much chicken I guess I like a bit more celery in it. But really good as is. Burger was huge but my son loved it Next time if I can be early I will try some those breakfast items.

    Love Stewart's bistro! The staff is incredible and the food is high quality. It's obvious they truly care about the business and environment they are providing to the community. They always go above and beyond.

    The ambiance here is so warm and inviting. The bistro walls are covered with uplifting messages of faith and hope. Everyone greeted us with a smile and provided exceptional customer service. My girlfriend didn't have the best morning, but the customer service here from Leanne (the owner) and ALL the staff really lifted her spirits. I had the Creme Brûlée latte which was a perfect blend of vanilla and caramel; sweet but not overpowering. It was perfect for this chilly winter day! I also really appreciated the wide variety of dairy free options that they had for my girlfriend. She ordered a dark hot chocolate and they had both oat milk and almond milk dairy alternatives! She tried it with oat milk and loved it. For our meal I ordered the French Toast and my girlfriend ordered the pancakes. The French Toast was the perfect texture (not too soft or hard) and tasted delicious. I love that they provided real maple syrup. My girlfriend said her pancakes were absolutely delicious and had the perfect amount of sweetness. I really appreciate that even though the restaurant was packed, Leanne took the time to have a conversation with me and make sure that I had a 5 star experience. We will definitely be back very soon for another amazing experience and to try some more of the menu items!

    Breakfast menu.

    I went there for the first time since the pandemic. They had remained closed for dine in until recently. This is a place where you order at the counter and then pick a table where the waitstaff will bring you your food. The place is clean and well staffed (at this time). The interior has a nice exposed brick wall by the counter and the storefront windows allow for a lot of light to come in. The owners are present and always friendly and accommodating. The food here is really good. It's fresh, consistent and always comes out hot. The "cawfee" is really good and I believe they use Carborro Coffee Roasters. They offer breakfast all day and begin to offer the lunch items at 11am. We are a fans of this place. Like I said the food is always good here and they have a nice menu to choose from. Just be mindful that wait times, especially on weekends, can be a little long, so get there early as the line can go out the door.

    I don't know how we didn't find this gem sooner! Our large family stopped in on the weekend and grabbed some breakfast in this cute shop. There was a play kitchen for our kids to pretend serving us as we waited for our food and the lady behind the counter even gave us the table next to it so we could sit by the kids playing. The staff were so friendly and accommodating. The food was delicious- my kids ate their plates CLEAN y'all! My husband and I grabbed some coffees - they were one of the best latte and cappuccino we have had in the area and I can be admittedly quite picky with coffee. We love supporting local and we also love supporting small Christian businesses. You will find decor with bible verses everywhere and it's overall such a wonderful and peaceful feeling when you walk in. We will definitely be back!!

    Is this a $20 plate of food?
    Matt E.

    After not coming here for a while during the pandemic - and never posting a negative review on Yelp - I have to say this place has gone WEIRD? I'm happy if you have found god... but they have turned the decor into a VERY intense "push my faith on you"place. The food is mediocre and expensive too by the way. I spent $19.60 (w/tip) for cold toast, overcooked eggs, and harsh coffee. Too bad a local place has decided they needed to preach to their customers. So weird (& a bit scary)!

    We live in North Raleigh but regularly do our shopping in Wake Forest because it's so convenient,…read moreand once we're there, everything is close by, including lunch. The two of us eat at Over the Falls regularly and always enjoy it. I'm honestly surprised I hadn't written a review before. Lunch for two came to $65.80 + tax and tip, and there was more than enough food. I ordered one of my two favorites: the Ahi Tuna Pita (the other favorite is the blue cheese burger). I paired it with a side salad and blue cheese dressing, plus an unsweetened iced tea with lemon. My wife ordered The Barrel, their Philly cheesesteak, with a side of sweet potato fries. We also shared an order of house-made potato skins. It was far too much food, in a good way, and we took plenty home. Service was outstanding and truly a team effort. One moment stood out: when my wife hesitated to ask for sour cream for the potato skins, our server immediately said, "It's just 15 steps, let me get it for you." That small gesture made a big difference. The rest of the team was equally warm, friendly, and attentive. The ambiance works perfectly for us, lively, busy, and welcoming without feeling chaotic. I would be confident ordering virtually anything from the menu. We'll keep coming back.

    Outstanding Wake Forest Eatery…read more Over the Falls features award-winning Specialty Salads, Sandwiches, Burgers, Pizza, Wings & Entrees; plus 12 Craft Draft Beers along with an Extensive Bourbon List, Handcrafted Cocktails & Mules. It's always crowded, does not accept reservations and does not have a bar or inside waiting area. You must register with the hostess, then wait outside (or in your car) until you receive a text that your table is ready. While this is inconvenient and unpleasant, the mouthwatering food is worth the trouble. One of our favorites is the Three Sisters Salad- which includes a generous scoop of either House-made Chicken Salad, Avocado Chicken Salad or Tuna Salad (we chose the Avocado), plus a large mound of Broccoli Salad, Fresh Fruit and a Flakey Honey-drizzled Croissant. Another winner was the Flash-fried Calamari & Banana Peppers. The substantial serving of Rhode Island Calamari was crispy, oh so tender and perfectly seasoned - with Thai Chili and Marinara dipping sauces. We also recommend the Cali Pastrami Sandwich and the Bacon & Cheddar Cheeseburger. Both come with a Pickle & either House-Made Potato Chips, Tortilla Chips, French Fries, Macaroni Salad or Cole Slaw. The NY Navel Pastrami was topped with Fried Onions, Habanero Jack Cheese, Chipotle Mayo and Avocado and piled high on a flaky, chewy golden brown Pretzel Roll. The big juicy Burger included Lettuce, Tomato, Red Onion and several slices of crispy Bacon.

    Vlad here with another downtown Wake Forest eatery review!…read more White Story Cafe is on the corner of South White & East Wait Streets, sharing a bright, airy space with The Burger Shop, a separate eatery I will review in coming weeks. (For those of you familiar with the area, another eatery called The Lemon Tree used to occupy this space.) Women-owned, White Story offers fresh takes on standard cafe items - paninis, sandwiches, salad, soups and a variety of breakfast options. (See menu pics for more details and pricing). In the very relaxing ambience with bright and cozy seating, we enjoyed excellent service from Apple, one of the owners. Paul and I both had the Morning Waffle Special: a tender tasty waffle with a deliciously crispy crust, topped with a fresh egg as you like it, crispy smoked bacon and fresh avocado slices - let's just say both our plates were clean! The sweet Thai tea was fresh and paired perfectly with our meals. The hours are varied, check the website (or menu pic) and prepare to enjoy light and refreshing fare in a welcoming space - leisurely catching up with friends over the fresh-baked treats and coffee or noshing with a current read. Y'all know me now - I like the smaller, intimate places off the beaten path yet close to everything - this place is a gem for you to try!

    Great addition to downtown Wake Forest food scene…read more This spot shares dining space with the Burger Shoppe on S. White St. Order at the counter, the food is served to your table. It's a fairly extensive menu for breakfast. Time from order to service about 10 minutes. Food is good! Tried chicken and waffle. It's a plate-sized waffle, freshly made, topped with breaded chicken. Chicken is tender but a little dry. Nothing that a nice helping of maple syrup didn't fix. Also tried the morning waffle special. This is a waffle, topped with an egg, bacon and avocado slices. Served piping hot, freshly cooked and a sizable portion. Always good to have more quality dining choices in town. I'll be back!

    A happy surprise in every bite…read more Artisan is a bright, cheerful, almost whimsical eatery located in the rapidly expanding Cobblestone Village in downtown Rolesville. This mini-deli serves up a variety of specialty cheeses, cured meats and beers. There's also a wall-size cooler loaded with a wide selection of canned craft beers, ciders and seltzers. The decor is warm minimalism, the vibe is neighborly and the staff cordial and accommodating. Signature sandwiches are my personal favorites, but there's also a variety of Small Plates, Salads and Boards. The sandwiches are huge - like the ones found in the best of New York's delis. One special, the Sweet Heat Seoulwich, was truly special. (Be sure to check the specials which change often.) The Toasted Hoagie Roll is piled high with Korean BBQ Glazed Pineapple, Mortadella, Mozzarella, Pickled Fresno Peppers, Gochujang Aioli (spicy Korean-inspired mayonnaise), Lettuce and Tomato. (Bet you can't eat all of it in one sitting.) The traditional Turkey Club is another monster that includes Hickory Smoked Turkey, Pesto Aioli, Spanish Jamon (ham), Lettuce, Tomato, and Vermont Cheddar on Sourdough Bread - a gourmet delight. Add a pint of Salty Turtle Kölsh Style Ale and you have a delicious, filing and refreshing meal. On the lighter side we recommend the Small Salad & 1/2 Sandwich. We paired a Caesars Salad and Mortadella (traditional sliced Italian Pork Sausage, Calabrian Chili Aioli, Gruyere Cheese, Balsamic Caramelized Onions and spicy Arugula on a toasted Hoagie Bun) - really good. The Whipped Ricotta Plate is another winner. The velvety Ricotta is topped with a rich Fig Jam, crispy Prosciutto, Yuzu Oil (refined citrus peal oil), Citrus Zest and Chives. The accompanying toasted Sourdough Bread was airy, tangy and as good as you will find anywhere. What I appreciate the most about Artisan is its creativity and imagination.
