    Burger and sweet potato fries
    Jack W.

    Decided to give these mouth breathers another chance after getting food poisoning from them before....BIG MISTAKE! Should point again, yes, I got food poisoning from them last time. Ya might think, "Why ya going back to them?", like I said, 2nd chance and all. This time I ordered their Perfect Burger (btw...not perfect...not even close). I ordered ahead of time, running a few errands and when I got to the restaurant they were still working on it. Fine, so I sit at the bar, right by their expo station. The incompetent woman working that station was letting what looked to be my burger and other people's to-go orders just sit in the window, unwrapped. The genius who owns this place apparently decided not to put in food warmers in his expo station....so I got a cold burger and cold sweet potato fries. I pointed this out to the manager and made him aware that the last time I got food poisoning and his response....didn't take responsibility AT ALL! No offer of refund, no nothing. To the manager's meager credit, he did order a re-fire on my order. That being said, when I got it home (10 min drive) fries were cold, burger barely warm and completely lacking in flavor. Folks, if you read my reviews on the regular, ya know I'm not a Karen, I'm not a complainer customer. If I give a bad review it's cuz the business DESERVED IT and cuz IT WAS BAD! I'm a chef by trade and been in the business a 22+ years, and I get it, food service is tough; but guess what? That doesn't mean you'll get an automatic pass from me when ya drop the ball, in the case TWICE! Bottom line , don't here or any of their locations. Crappy food, crappy service...

    Town Hall Grill Burger & Sweet Potato Fries
    Jenny D.

    Went on a weekday afternoon and received our food extremely quickly. I believe our waiter was named Ryan(?) and he was the main reason why it was so pleasant to eat out. His enthusiasm and attitude were amazing and his recommendations were great as well. I got sweet potato fries that were cooked perfectly, not at all soggy. I also got the Townhall burger, which was pretty good, but I felt like the bacon definitely was overpowering (that just my weird taste), if you like bacon, that's definitely a burger for you. I am a little disappointed that the burgers are around $15 (on the cheaper side of the menu) and in order to get another side you're charged another $1.50. So it definitely loses a star for being so expensive for what it is. Burgers and fries. Overall, I definitely come back but probably for more special occasions. The place was clean and we were in and out in 40mins! (On a Wednesday)

    Breakfast burger with a gluten-free bun and house potatoes- $14.00
    Rob G.

    So, 4 stars because the folks I was with had a great meal and would recommend. And they are mostly trustworthy people. The service was slow, and our server was not the sharpest crayon in the box, had a hard time understanding gluten-free options , or the kitchen was very unclear with him on options, which are both disconcerting. See picture on what $14 bucks gets you.

    Dessert and Cocktails Menu

    A friend introduced me to the Town Hall Grill a few weeks ago. I am glad that she did. I am smitten with the pineapple side down cake here. You have to try this dessert! It's is everything! I have also enjoyed the chicken wings, and the tater tots loaded with cheese, sour creams and pulled bbq. My orders have been served fresh and in a timely manner. I appreciate the attention to detail that the kitchen crew uses when preparing orders. I enjoy the environment of the location. The decor is complete with UNC memorabilia and the customer service is great here! The employees do a wonderful job at making customers feel welcomed. I've enjoyed each of my servers when I have visited this location (Matilda is pretty awesome!) Thank you to the Town Hall Grill for being a welcoming local restaurant. This place is now in my "don't feel cooking" rotation.

    Nachos
    Chris K.

    Our waiter, Alex, couldn't have made our visit more fun! Welcoming, nice, humorous, and answered all our questions as first time guests. We both enjoyed our meals. I had the nachos for lunch, which is definitely more than I could eat. My spouse really like the fish, but not as crazy about the fries that have a coating on them and the slaw is blah with a funky flavor. We'll return again to see how their burgers compare to their sister place, Town Hall Burger.

    Samantha R.

    I love a good sports bar and grill, and THG had everything just right. The wings were flavorful and cooked perfectly, the beers were cold, the outdoor seating was plentiful and they were playing both the World Cup and then the UNC game too. I would definitely go back here to watch a game or just relax with friends. Great service all around despite being completely swamped with patrons.

    What a great hidden gem. Excellent wait staff great atmosphere everyone was friendly. The food was impeccable. Stopped over for a pregame meal headed to see the tar heels play. I recommend this spot for anyone who needs a quick meal or wants to sit down and enjoy themselves

Service was fast and friendly, and they brought the food right to our table. That said, it didn't quite wow me. The bun wasn't toasted, and overall it felt like a pretty standard burger without anything especially memorable. Still a reliable option if you're craving something classic!

I got the two empanadas with aside and was able to try both the chicken and the pork. I think I liked the chicken a little bit more, but both of them were very good and the plantains were also very good. Not overly sweet, but also not super dry. I will say the parking is kind of annoying without parking space directly nearby. Had to park in the parking garage across the street. The server was very nice and mindful of waters and when we needed things. I will say almost $20 for a regular dish seemed very expensive but the food was pretty good so I would probably come back - just for the cheaper empanadas as they were pretty filling as it was. The one thing that kind of threw me off was how they set the table with their water cups upside down, touching the table. I wouldn't say that I'm a clean freak, but also that seems kind of gross to me because that's where my mouth is going to be... I'd probably do something different there myself. This definitely is more of a Chapel Hill / Carrboro money type of dining experience $$ but I'd be back on nicer occasions. The pastry on the empanadas were very good. Really liked the yuca Frits as well

Our server was very friendly and knowledgeable and gave us a rundown of the menu before we ordered. I decided to start with the Cheese Plate, which included 3 different cheeses, buttered baguette slices, jam, mustard, and pickles. I enjoy cheese plates, and this one was great, but I can understand it may not be for everyone. My wife ordered the Red Fish, which had a more Southeast Asian-inspired twist to it. It came over rice and pickled onions and beets, and the flavors were a blend of lemongrass and coconut. The fish was cooked well - nice and tender, not too dry - and the flavors went well together. I ordered the New York Strip, which was delicious - the meat was well cooked, had great flavor, and was a generous portion that was very filling.
