Everything this place is awesome! I'm not sure what more you want me to say. The service was spectacular. The food was off of the hook, friendly environment, makes you want to get a job there, but I don't like to work so. That's why I go there all the time, they're like oh my gosh, you're back again I'm like hell yeah.! read more

Really fun place! I came with two girlfriends to get dinner/drinks and play games. The biggest appeal of the Kitchen Table is their awesome selection of board/card games. They have your standard games, niche games, card games, kid games, and everything in between! The game tender was super helpful in recommending a few games we could play with our party size. We ended up playing a card game I'm familiar with called Set. We all enjoyed our drinks and food. We shared Miguel's Stuffed Jalapenos, Loaded Chicken Nachos, and Short Rib Tacos. Everything was tasty but the short rib was my favorite! I'll definitely be trying more short rib items next time I visit. We sat outside, and since it got pretty hot, we didn't stick around to keep playing after we finished eating. If you have the time, it's probably worth waiting for a table inside, or you can make a reservation if you have a party of at least 5. read more

What a great place! Take a gander at games you may have NEVER heard of- as well as many classics. This delicious restaurant has great tidbits to share- or keep to yourself. But it also doubles as a gaming den! With staff to cater to your food needs- and a special games concierge, to teach you new games, or dig out familiar favorites. Highly recommend The Kitchen Table for a family game night, date night or just something different to do with friends! read more

Great food me and partner shared nachos. I was really blown away by the goat cheese fruit salad. Service was great our waiter was attentive. The board game vibe was so cool I could see myself being a friend here to play a game while we wait for food. read more

I mean, it's a concept by Relish so of course it's amazing. Service was super friendly and prompt. I was blown away by the size and taste of the avocado toast and cheese grits. The kids waffle with berries was also legit and my kiddo ate it all. Parking is easy and there's indoor and covered outdoor seating with board games! Definitely on my return list. read more

The Kitchen Table at Relish - Avocado toast - American Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

We ordered bagel and lox as well as huevos rancheros and scrambled eggs. The bagel and lox left much to be desired in taste/texture/quality. But was overall decent. The huevos rancheros were tasty as far as the tostada and beans go. I just wish they gave way more beans because as you can see it's only a little bit. Granted, I ordered huevos rancheros without the dairy (cheese and crema) but it was supposed to come with avocados, and as you see no avocado. No worries because it was still pretty tasty. The pico needs work, tastes too tomato forward, not really getting the onion or peppers. The bacon here is really good, I also ordered a side of that (not pictured here unfortunately). We also ordered drinks. The mimosa is a pretty normal mimosa, typical. I ordered the Hive drink on the cocktail menu and it came with a real piece of honey comb which I thought was a pretty sweet touch. I also enjoyed eating the honeycomb after finishing the drink. I messed up and also ordered some blueberry drink on the menu and it was too sweet for me, which I didn't really care for. We also loved the gaming atmosphere, we love playing board games and they have a ton of mainstream and not so mainstream/unique board games and card games which was super entertaining. The service was great, our waitress was super attentive and even had some board game recommendations. Overall I really enjoyed this space, so I'll definitely be back... but I would order something else to eat on the menu next time. read more

My wife and I brought the 8 year old here for an early dinner, ordered food and picked a game from the fully stocked shelves of offerings. The game support is wonderful, with in house gamers that can explain rules, and possibly even referee. -). All around you are groups enjoying a meal and a game of choice. All ages are represented, and you can hear the laughter and see the smiles of customers and staff alike. We will be back. read more

Saturdays are better with fun brunch options. Add a covered patio and you have a fun place to dine with friends and family. I started with the Paper Plane(s, Trains, & Automobiles). It was a great way to have some bourbon on a warm day and the plane on the side was a fun way to serve it. The cocktail was a nice complement to our great meals. The waffle Monte cristo was a great take on the classic sandwich. Having the jam in the middle and syrup on top was a great mix of flavors. My wife ordered the breakfast pizza. Eggs, sausage, and cheese on a waffle was awesome and the hot honey brought it all together. The staff was friendly and our server ensured our glasses stayed full. We were passing through Raleigh and I am thrilled we decided to eat here. I can't wait to return soon! read more

TLDR: Excellent place for a delicious meal at a reasonable price. Easy online ordering. Curbside pick-up no longer available. We have dined at Relish before and had a good experience. This time we chose to order takeout from the Kitchen Table at Relish. We were equally impressed by this meal. We ordered online the Buffalo wrap and chili mac and cheese. The meal was ready on time and reasonably priced. An employee greeted us upon arrival and handed us the order. All of the items tasted great and were portioned well. I know the chili mac and cheese sounds strange but it did taste really good. The Kitchen Table is located beside Relish. It has a takeout counter, additional dining area, and emphasizes biscuits, brews, and board games. Overall, we had a good experience here and recommend this restaurant to others! read more

I chose The Kitchen Table at Relish on a lovely Saturday afternoon for a solo brunch. It wasn't too busy, but I chose to sit at the bar. The host brought me water and menus as soon as I sat down. I asked for his food suggestions and he shared with me his favorites along with the new menu items. The bartender took my order, the breakfast pizza. I didn't order a drink because I had just donated blood and needed to only drink water :(. They have some really cool drinks and menu items. The breakfast pizza is four waffle pieces, with scrambled eggs, cheese, sausage crumbles and drizzled with hot honey. My food came out pretty quickly. The waffles were a little over cooked, almost burnt, but tasty. The toppings were very good, the hot honey added something I wouldn't have thought. Rather tasty. I really like the ambiance of The Kitchen Table. It's comfortable, yet cute. There's indoor and outdoor seating, booths and tables. The service was good. read more

My wife and I just returned from a weekend trip to NOLA. We ended up going to Kitchen Table at Relish on a whim and boy were we surprised. It was a colder day and we were very happy with the heaters outside, it made the ambiance welcoming, cozy and friendly. The staff were very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. As far as food, we got the Corn Beef Hash, Chicken Biscuit Sandwich and the Goat Cheese salad. All of it was fantastic but our favorite was the Tater Tots we got as a side. They were perfectly cooked and seasoned. It's been a few years since my last yelp review The Kitchen Table was so good it brought me out of retirement. We didn't partake in any of the table top games but we saw many that we recognized and play at home. We'll be coming back, highly recommend you trying it out, especially the Sunday morning experience. read more

We went to the kitchen table at relish last night for a double date. This place is really cool. The food is amazing and the service is friendly. Plus there's an entire library of floor to ceiling bookshelves of board games. They even have a kids section so there's really something for everyone here! I ordered the Reuben which was fantastic. My husband got the cod and fries/fish and chips and he really enjoyed it. We got nuggets and fries for my daughter which is pretty standard. Our friends got the grilled cheese for their daughter, braised short rib, and a blt? Oh and the flash fried broccoli. They all thought the food was amazing. The only downside is there were a lot of flies at our table! There's indoor and outdoor seating and they sell vegan desserts behind the counter. I think they were selling candles or something at the front too? And the employees seemed more than happy to explain to customers how to play games. Cool place! read more

This was so fun! The food was good. The sever helped us with games. We had such a good time!

Stopped by for a quick breakfast/brunch and was greeted immediately. You seat yourself anywhere, and there is even a heated patio area available. I chose to go with the monte Cristo and a side salad w/a creamy balsamic dressing. The sandwich was soooo delish and the flavors mended so well w/being on a waffle. The side salad was equally good, as well. Service was fast, and pricing was reasonable, especially given so much food. I would definitely visit again the next time that I'm in town! read more

But why is their brunch just so dang good? (Their lynx and dinner are equally yummy but brunch is just the best of the best). The tastiest food plus the best selection of board games you could imagine? Yes, it's really that amazing! The food is always 10/10 stars. Even the pickiest person in your group will find something. The inside is so adorable and clean and modern feeling that you forget you're in a strip mall. The game system is awesome. Very straightforward information about playing on their website or on the table card. To be clear, you DO NOT have to play board games to eat at the Kitchen Table. But you can if you want to. You can enjoy the Kitchen Table without playing any games and just have a great meal or you can kick back and enjoy amazing food and drinks while playing board games that you may not otherwise have access to. The staff are all super friendly and have great knowledge of the games. Do yourself a favor and check this place out! read more

I visited solo on a Wednesday evening around 6:30 and a good number of tables were full because of various parties. I sat at the bar and pulled out my book. The server was attentive and friendly, and the bartender checked in on me. They had 3-4 craft beers on draft from what I could see. Food came out in around 8 minutes, not bad. The Reuben was delicious, yet greasy enough to ask for another round of napkins. The side salad with goat cheese and a balsamic vinegar was really good. The side of cheese grits I added were also tasty. All in all, not bad. It would be a little pricey with an entire family or doing brunch and a couple drinks, so take that how you will. Enjoyed the food! read more

Food was delicious. Our waiter was very attentive. The home feel ambiance was cozy. If you like playing board games with some friends this is the place for you. They have games to rent to play for up to 2 hours a table. read more

Relish is one of my favorite area restaurants in the Crabtree-Glenwood Station neighborhood. I have never had a poor experience ever. I finally checked off the brunch experience at their sister cafe/bar, The Kitchen Table. Located conveniently next door to Relish, is KT. I read about the vintage board game experience and wanted to check out brunch for myself. A friend and I visited around noon and we were seated immediately by a nice young gentleman and comfortably inside at a booth towards the bar. I enjoy the vintage-country charm of this cafe. Our waitress arrived to greet us immediately and we decided on the Special Caramel Expresso Martini. These were made perfectly. We then decided on shrimp & grits and the montecristo for entrees. Our entrees came out very quickly. I asked that my waffle be cooked to a crisp and the cook delivered. I do not enjoy soggy waffles. I paired my dish with cheese grits. I felt the dishes were good but nothing blew me away. What I did enjoy the most here were the cocktails !!!!! We had to relocate to the bar due to the air conditioner leaking water over my seat and onto the booth from condensation. This was the best thing to happen to us. Zack is the bartender and he was such a wonderful host. He makes inspiring cocktails and is a mad scientist with his creations as well as a great conversationalist. I wanted to try Elijah Craig bourbon for the first time and he made an Apple Butter Bourbon fizz with delicious ginger, this was excellent!!!! We chatted about the Tepuy donuts that they serve on weekends from the famous Tepuy shop. I look forward to visiting for dinner and more of Zack's creative cocktails. We did not play any games this visit, but I intend to next visit and love that it's an option. The southern hospitality was much appreciated. read more

On my visit here in Raleigh, I was able to enjoy brunch at this cozy place, I first noticed the wide variety of board games that you can enjoy while you wait I'm impressed with the game selection. NOW, on to the food the shrimp and grits were filling with bits of sausage and gravy. The biscuits and gravy was delicious I would have enjoyed more sausage in the gravy, the fruit was very fresh and delicious. Great place for brunch or lunch or any occasion to have a great meal! read more

A great place to have fun with good and board games! This place is next door to the Relish Kitchen and Bourbon Bar. They have signs to direct you in case you get lost. As you enter, there's plenty of open seating inside and outside (with heat lamps). And all the games are located in the back. There wasn't anyone there to recommend games so we opted for the games we were most familiar with. There is a $5 table fee to play for up to 6 players. However, there are 4-6 games available that are free to play. The games are organized by level of difficulty and number of players required. There are many options for everyone! We didn't end up ordering any food but they have a full menu and bar. Def a spot worth checking out! read more

Great little dinner-esque bar and cafe with plenty of entertainment and great service! We got the Pickled Things (if you like pickles to snack on, you'll like this), Sieze the Bean (delicious!),sweet potato fries (they were okay - very thick and could be crispier), and $5 all you can play board games. The servers were vernice and always checking on us. There was also a game master that helped us pick out a new game and taught it to us at our table! read more

Service is AMAZING and the food is absolutely delicious! Unlimited refills on soft drinks. Had the fondue.. it was so tasty and the bread was perfectly cooked with some crunch. The pickled vegetables were very good with an added crunch. All food is freshly prepared as I did not get the sauce with the grits. Ambiance is relaxed, noise level is not bad at all. Hundreds of games to choose from if you want to play! Highly recommend this restaurant and I will definitely add this into my rotation! Maybe there is hope for good food in NC! read more

The games they offer and place itself is cute but the service sucked and the food was pretty bland. Ordered some beignets with apple butter to start, they were pretty good. The avocado toast was dry, the avocado was like a guacamole paste (not a real avocado) and the plate was overpowered with tomato. The server was very slow and kept forgetting to bring the check, refill the water and coffee. And speaking of coffee, they don't have an espresso machine so no cappuccino or latte option, it's all drop coffee or regular American coffee which was very watered down and didn't taste like anything. Don't recommend and won't come back. read more

Delicious food & drinks!!! The quesabirria's were the perfect portion & very tasty. Service was also phenomenal.

The decor is great- the prices are outrageous. $8 for soup??!! $5 for a side of fries??!! GTFOH. And the service at the bar was terrible. The bartender just disappeared for several minutes at a time. I used to be a big Relish fan. Quite disappointed. 100% will not be back. read more

Came here to celebrate my birthday and wound up staying for almost 5 hours. We had such a blast! I love that they have such a huge selection of games to play, but they also have a game master who will teach you how to play the games. We played like 7 games while we were there. The food was straight-up delicious, as well as the drinks. So thankful that they are dog-friendly. We will definitely be back!!! read more

My last visit South, landed me in North Carolina for my first stop. This trip was slightly different from all others because I had the pleasure of being apart of my sister's bridal party. With a weekend of planned wedding related events, one of those activities happened to land me in a seat @ The Kitchen Table at Relish for the bridal shower. The place was big and very accommodating of a large party of festive ladies. We were seated in a little section off to the right of the main entrance/dinning area that was semi-separate. As we waited for all the guest to arrive we were allowed to decorate and chat without being pressured to start our orders. Once everyone arrived orders were placed and the fun was ready to begin. I had the wonderful opportunity to try fried pickles for the first time (unfortunately I failed to snap a pic). To be honest my first thought was ...hmmm, "I'm not really impressed" However, I must admit after a few more bites the Fried Pickles won me over and I would definitely order them again. I also order a fried shrimp sandwich with a side of fried green tomatoes (no judgement, when in the South you eat like you're from the South... lol). The shrimps were cooked to perfection but I was not a fan of their fried green tomatoes. Their Mac & Cheese was ordered by many and seem to be a hit as well. My visit was for a wonderful occasion and The Kitchen Table @ Relish helped to make it a success. Just A Note: The Fried Pickles are an appetizer but the portion is larger enough to share with 3-4 people (sorry no pic) and their Arnold Palamers (sweet tea and lemonade) were delish! read more

I only did takeout but I do so regularly because it so good. I also eat in at times- at the bar, in the dining room or outside on their large patio. Food, drink, service and atmosphere are consistently excellent. My latest order was the Turkey Reuben. Excellent sandwich stacked full of turkey and with a great sauce. read more

The food was delicious but the vibe was even better. If you're in your 20s-40s and aren't an uptight human, this is the spot for weekend brunch and a game. They have great food with exceptional service. We have never played games while coming to KTAR but everyone around us was and it looked like a lot of fun. We had salad and a breakfast platter with broccoli to share. If no one tells you ahead of time, get the broccoli with jalapeño ranch. It is AMAZING. I have thought about eating it as my entire meal, many times. We have been coming here since it's inception and will certainly be returning. Hopefully next time to play a game as well. read more

Went here for a brunch date. The service was wonderful. The waitresses helped us find the right games to play while we waited for our food. The drinks were amazing. The food was amazing.

A delightful find with great food and very good service. For breakfast, definitely consider the biscuits and gravy - I chose to enjoy it with tots this morning and everything was well seasoned to provide enjoyable flavor without being heavy handed.

This was such a fun and needed addition to the Triangle area! We've visited similar places in NYC and Asheville and loved the experience both times. The kitchen table at relish does not disappoint. We stopped in for after Christmas brunch & enjoyed- the NC special, Mamas Chicken, and the peach Bellinis. While slightly buzzed on delicious Bellinis, we had a great time play Trouble! It was the perfect afternoon, good service, good food, great drinks, and great fun. Spoiler Alert- I won in Trouble read more

The kitchen table menu is pretty different than Relish menu which I liked. I got the daddy's chicken sandwich with the sausage gravy on the side (personal preference) and it was quite tasty. Also, freshly squeezed OJ and rum... Yes! My taste buds were pleased. I'm probably going to try and recreate that drink at home. The best part to me was learning a new game. The game assistant came over, asked a few questions to get an idea of what we were thinking and then he came back with 3 game suggestions. We chose Quarto which was a lot of fun. Overall, I was very pleased with my first experience here and I'm totally going back. read more

First time, waitress recommended their Italian Mac and Cheese. It came out on a hot skillet and it was delicious! I'm not a Mac and cheese snob, but I will never eat blue box again! We went during lunch and the staff were rolling so we were out in 30 minutes. The atmosphere is dated but very clean. I learned Relish also serves brunch but have your Netflix or Hulu ready as the wait time can be up to an hour. Trust me it's worth the wait! read more

I was overall disappointed in my experience here. The concept of snacks and games is great, but the food is overpriced and its quality is big time subpar. My brother and I were trying to play some games and we were bombarded by the "game tenders" who took up most of our time just explaining a bunch of games to us that we didn't even want to play. We didn't really have a server, and we ended up waiting around for 10 minutes at the front just to get our bill. I won't be going back sadly, because there is simply nothing shwae about it. read more
