I've been to Tribeca Tavern four or five times with different people and it was only "decent." The last time I went (7/10/3018) was excellent. Our server, Mark, was probably one of the best servers I've ever had! He played along with my daughter and brought her cookies for her birthday. It made her day even more special. My other experiences at this restaurant I ordered burgers, so this time I decided to do something different. I got the shrimp and grits (pictured)... it was SO good! It made the number one spot on my shrimp and grits list! We also got the pickle chips for an appetizer and they were tasty as well. I took away a star due to the inconsistency at this restaurant. Hopefully next time I dine here, it will be just as great as my most recent experience. (Keep Mark, he's wonderful!) read more

Nice place to have a drink or dine. We get their burgers when we are hungry and they are really juicy. For appetizer, we order guacamole. Their guacamole taste like it's made fresh everyday. read more

First time visiting this in Cary. Nice staff but the food was so so - dry chicken on their famous California Salad & the presentation was a disappointment. Firebirds Restaurant blows away any salad we've seen so far here NC. Oh, the table was sticky and floor underneath the booth was filthy. Don't think we'll be back. Thanks read more

I went in for the first time last night and had a great experience! Our server was very attentive, knowledgeable, and sweet. Parking was a little difficult considering it was a weekday evening. There were 4 of us and we ordered chicken wings for appetizer and shrimp and grits, ribs, salmon, and seafood pasta for our main. Our food came out quite fast and they were very delicious! It was so much food, we all had to go boxes to take home. I was informed that they own their own brewery so next time, I'd love to try out their beers. If I lived closer, I'd definitely visit more often (: read more

Me and my family have come to this restaurant a few times now before we decided to leave a review. We love great culinary experiences and we loved this place. From the concept to service to culinary execution, it was a wonderful experience. First thing I like to point out is that this restaurant sources most of their food locally, which means that the money is going back into our local farms and community. That is a huge plus in my book. Then you have a decent sized menu with plenty of options and a nice bar menu with over 200 brands of whiskey. We've noticed small things like how the wait staff never look "in the weeds" or rushed. The food always came prepared well other than one incident that was handled extremely well. The service pre-busses without a hitch and the environment never feels rushed. This place has the feel of fine dining at an affordable rate. I would suggest that everyone come here and enjoy the great service and amazing cuisine! Our most recent visit we had Erin as our server who was awesome. After the meal we felt compelled to speak to the manager and share our compliments to the whole restaurant. Chloe talked to us for a few minutes and was a joy to speak to. Thank you so much for doing so well for us, we will certainly be back and send others your way. read more

Not really sure how this happened, but I ended up eating here twice this weekend, so I think I have a good feel for this place. This place is gigantic. Formally, this was a Chop House Grill, so the fit and finish on the inside is higher end. There are TV's everywhere making it a great place to watch the game. My only complaint is the bar area is a little small, which made it very cramped on Friday night with the NCAA tourney going on. Big bump in rating for the awesome outdoor seating. They have tables around the entire base of the building, half of which can be closed in and heated. Plus, there is a second floor covered patio with TV's. Warm weather mecca! The menu is mainly burger focused, but they have a variety of other main dishes that look appealing. I stuck with the burgers. There are about 10 burgers on the main menu, a special side menu that has another 20 or so seasonal creations, and a huge cheese list with a focus on local providers. Neato! They house grind their meat, which by NC law, means you can get it cooked as rare as you want it (a la Raleigh Times). Also, they house patty different types of burgers including beef (pretty good), kobe (probably fake but fattier meat), turkey (excellent), blackbean (heard mixed reviews), and lamb (omg amazing). Another hard choice was the side menu. They give you the choice from tons of sides, but I went with the sweet potato fries. Hands down the best I have ever had. Cross cut like Chick-fil-a. Beer wise, they stick with all NC brews. Half of which are the mashhouse beers from one of the other restaurants in their chain in Fayetteville. Pretty good brews and served with a big pretzel. Others include Aviator and Lonerider. $4 for mashhouse and $5 for everything else. Not cheap, but not terrible either. Service was mixed. Really good Friday night and really bad Sunday at lunch. They are definitely experiencing the pains of a new restaurant, but I feel like they will get it taken care of (Rockytop Hospitality knows how to run a restaurant). To sum things up: Wonderful concept and menu. Great location filling a niche in Cary. Mainstays like burgers, sides, and beer are money. Frills like apps and deserts could definitely use some refinement. I am pretty much going to rotate between here and natty greens on a weekly basis. Oh, they have brunch as well! read more

Tribeca Tavern - Bar area. Lots o TV's. - American Near Me - Cary, North Carolina

Good service, but food was below average. Pimento chicken was rubber and the house made salad dressing had no flavor.

I found Tribeca to be a great spot for tasty food (they specialize in beef, sourcing quartered cows from a nearby county and processing their steaks, burgers, and short ribs in-house) and an outstanding selection of bourbon and local beers. Christine, a very personable bartender there, made me an outstanding Old Fashioned, and the bar area has great lighting - not to bright but not too dark to see the menu. I had the Mastering Augusta burger and would recommend Tribeca for its people, selection of beverages, and delicious food. read more

I am big fan of Tribeca Tavern. This is my go to place for fabulous fried pickles and great burgers. My go to burger is the SOUTHERN LOVIN'; covered with fried green tomatoes, goat cheese, aged balsamic, lettuce, tomato, and onion; it takes a big mouth to bite into this monster, but it's worth every messy bite. They have a huge selection of burgers and other pub fare. They specialize in local NC products; cheese, beef, and bison to name a few. They also support local breweries. Do not miss a taste of some great NC flavors. read more

Burgers aren't really my thing, but my husband loves them, and I like to try new beers. It seems like the Triangle area has more pub food restaurants than any other type, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Tribeca is conveniently located at the NW corner of High House and Davis, despite the "Ledgestone Way" street name listed. This is a nice little shopping center with Kilwin's for my blue moon ice cream fix, Little Toy Shop for awesome kid's toys, games, puzzles and books, and Stonehaven for longing looks at custom gem settings. This also means that at the wrong time of day, it can be a battle to find a good parking spot. We entered the restaurant at just after 5pm on a Saturday evening. At that time the restaurant wasn't that crowded, we were able to find a good parking spot, and the upstairs veranda was completely empty. If you do happen to come to Tribeca on a day with nice weather, I really recommend getting a seat upstairs. Sure, the view is just the intersection of Davis and High House, but it's still a really nice spot to relax and enjoy a beer. Our server was very friendly and spent a lot of time explaining all the items on the menu, where the ingredients come from, all the beer specials, and specifics on particular burgers and appetizers. From her descriptions it sounds like they really try to use lot of local ingredients. I'm not a locavore, in fact, I love my French cheeses and Belgian beers. But I do appreciate a restaurant that knows where their ingredients come from. I didn't catch the name of the beer, but I ordered the peach hefeweizen. It sounded like the kind of beer I would like, and I certainly did like it. It tasted a lot like the Lindeman's peach lambic. I took a brief look at the appetizer list and ordered the cheesy poofs at the same time. It sounded like the most awesome food imaginable: puff pastry stuffed with brie, chopped cashews and bacon, and a raspberry dipping sauce on the side. It came out in just a few minutes, and it was almost as awesome as I was hoping for. The cashews didn't seem to match well with the brie and bacon though. It would have been better with almonds, perhaps, or maybe no nuts at all. The brie, bacon and raspberry all went perfectly together though. For entrees my son ordered the kid's pasta, I ordered the Tar Heel burger, and my husband ordered the Wolfpack burger. The kid's meals seemed like a good deal, for just $5 you get the entree, drink and dessert. I'm not normally into burgers, but since they were Tribeca's specialty, I decided to go for the one with brie and sauteed onions. My husband loves burgers and tends to like the ones with fried onions and BBQ sauce on them. We both got the sweet potato fries with honey rum sauce. We had the pasta come out early, since my son is a slow eater. It was an odd shape of pasta, somewhat shell shaped, so that several pieces would stick together in lumps. I tasted a piece, and the sauce was really good. My son even ate some of it and didn't have any complaints. Our burgers came out soon after, and they were huge! I tried to smush down the bun as well as I could, but even so, I was loosing onions and burger everywhere every time I tried to bite in. It was a good burger, but far too messy. I couldn't even finish it all. I think I would have been happier if the patty would have been about half that size. The sweet potato fries were probably the best part of the meal. The honey rum sauce was the perfect compliment. More fries, less beef patty, and it would have been a perfect meal. My husband had no problem finishing his burger. He said it was pretty near perfect, and liked his fries as much as I did. He had always been a fan of Tyler's burgers, but considers Tribeca's burgers to be superior. I think we'll probably be frequenting Tribeca a lot from now on. I like the beer selection and the fries, and my husband loves the burgers. We'll just have to make sure we arrive early so we can get a spot up in the veranda again. read more

I so wish I could give 3.5 stars but here's a 4-star. Tribeca has been around for a bit and needs a refresh-especially the decor and the menu. However, the food is typically good so no real complaints there. EXCEPT when a salad cost more than a burger. And when I say more I mean $18 for a wedge salad for 4oz of steak vs. $9 for a burger. WTF! Service was slow again...but that's the norm. read more

Good food but not consistent. Service was.great! Seating and setting was great for party of 2.

We've lived in Cary for over three years. We've dined at Tribeca several times. Unfortunately.... many of those times have not been good times. We've waited significantly longer than waits were told, been roasted while sitting at outdoor seating during the cold months from too hot of heaters, left to find servers to get drinks/sauces/bills, and just poor food that was overcooked on on occasion. Last year on my husband's birthday they tried to put a reservation of 10 at two separate areas.... at three uneven tables. When I talked to the manager that this wasn't what we had in mind for a reservation for a party... he acted annoyed. Eventually we got another table, but the staff acted bothered we didn't want to be split up and sat at different tables. Several other occasions we have been passed between severs during our dining, left waiting to find our own salt/pepper/ketchup from other tables.... and yes, we come back because the food is good. The food and menu is great, most times the food is perfect.... burgers - awesome. Shrimp and grits - some of the best in the triangle. tacos - one of my favorites. After our latest experience of waiting 30 minutes when we were told 20 minutes, the hostess's didn't have an explanation of what they couldn't seat us at one of the three visible clean open tables. We had been waiting standing in the bar area trying to find a table leaving, we noticed a family that was finishing boxing their food and kept and eye on them when a rude woman literally pushed the party as they were leaving at the bar out of the booth we were watching and ignored the fact we had been standing there waiting patiently. The hostess offered no answers, we decided to go to a very nice establishment nearby that we've experience much better service at.... after this past weekend... we won't be back for a good six months of so. I hear the north raleigh location is better, maybe we will try that next time. read more

Went for lunch based on the Yelp rating and was not disappointed. Many readers raved about the burger and it was excellent. I had the Southern Lovin' burger medium rare. It included fried green tomatoes, goat cheese, bacon and balsamic (and some arugula not mentioned on the menu). The meat had a great, complex flavor and was truly medium rare, to the point you could of eaten it on its own. The goat cheese and balsamic really added a lot to the burger, making it great. A few reason I did not give it a 5. First, I ordered fries as my side and they were perfectly cooked but just lacked any flavor, required a lot of ketchup. Second, even though the burger was great, $13 for a burger (non-Kobe) is pretty high. Overall, an excellent experience even if a little costly. read more

I'm giving Tribeca Tavern 5 stars simply for the fact that they offer a variety of unbelievably amazing burgers! I rarely eat red meat but I find myself craving their burgers over and over, which is why I have been there at least 7 times in the past year. When you walk in, there's nothing much to the decor. It's simple and clean. The wait staff has always been good, but the food is the true star of the show. The best thing about Tribeca is that all their food is local. From the NC raised beef, to the local cheese and bread, everything is fresh and delicious. Each time I visit, I get the same thing... a draft root beer and the Better Than Ted burger. This burger is an 8oz bison burger (which is leaner and tastes much better than beef) , topped with bacon, smoked blue cheese crumbles, and get this....FRIED avocado slices!! I would recommend this burger to anyone, but if that description doesn't strike your fancy, there are so many different specialty burgers that come in a variety of meats and toppings OR you can build your own. My only negative comment is that I find the sweet potato fries to be tasteless. They used to come with a dipping sauce but they don't anymore, so choose one of the other 14 side choices and you'll be fine. If you are a craving a burger or simply a unique restaurant that offers farm-to-table food, then go to Tribeca. I highly doubt you'll be disappointed! read more

Great food. Nice people. Grits a must. Lilly was very helpful waitress. Enjoyed lunch and we will return.

So gooooddd! Our server Lily was so nice! Burgers were very good. Appetizers were good as well!

WOW I had perhaps one of the best burgers of my life today, called the Blue Devil burger I believe. Blue cheese, bacon, fried jalapenos on a huge 1/2 lb ground steak cooked medium. The sweet potato waffle fries with honey dipping sauce was a perfect compliment. Great beer selection, all locals. Skip the Mashhouse brews though, go for the real locals. Service was great, but we went at lunch on a Monday and had the bar to ourselves. read more

I think my expectations were too high for Tribeca, unfortunately. We came here to celebrate my boyfriend's promotion at work / date night. I had looked at the menu beforehand and was super excited for the food. We ordered Zucchini Chips as an app, I got the caprese sandwich with a side of garlic mashed potatoes, and he got the Wolfpack Burger with a side of Caesar salad. Starting with the Zucchini Chips - they were good, BUT it felt like they had been prepped prior and reheated once we ordered. Not fresh. I felt the same way about my side - because instead of the mashed potatoes I ordered, I was given the Mac and cheese. Which would've been fine! If it didn't taste like reheated macaroni. The highlight was definitely the Wolfpack Burger, but even my boyfriend admitted that, although he ordered it medium well, it didn't taste that way. Might come back, but this place definitely wasn't anything to write home about. Service was average - but they were enforcing social distancing between tables, and the staff was wearing masks. Bill without tip was just under $35. read more

Semi indifferent hostesses, sat us upstairs, never do it. Acoustics so bad that you can't talk to the person next to you. Pickle chips were cold, not good, and not a whole lot of flavor. Beer was good, hoppyum and others always solid. Food order took forever, and came cold. Shrimp and grits, cold! Bacon cheeseburger, cold!! Ribs, cold!!! My burger, cold!!!! I must thank them, however, I'm trying to lose weight, and the fries were all so cold we threw them all out. I generally like Tribeca, but it seems when slightly busy, they fall on their face. I recommend getting a 14$ burger when they can make it warm, on off peak times! Also, I had pickle chips "frickles" at Carolina ale house yesterday, and they were hot and delicious!! read more

Excellent service, great food and excellent selection of bourbons! Shout out to Christine for excellent service.

From sitting at the bar I had a great time. The two bartenders were both Mike. Shared a bottle of Terra Rosa malbec and had the 12 hour braised short rib French dip. Delicious. My girlfriend had the banana creme brûlée and it was good but I think the top should be carmilized sugar and not bananas. Just an opinion. Great Atmosphere, badass tvs and good food and drinks. read more

Ordered 3 different hamburgers, waiter asked how we would like it cooked. We wanted them medium, which means they should have some pink. What we got were overcooked, dried our patties of brown. Oh there's more. The waiter spilled one of our waters on the table and just walked away and never bothered to wipe it up. After we were done with our barely edible meal we waited and waited for the waiter to come clean our table, check see if we were ok, had to flag down another waitperson to fetch our guy. Won't be back! read more

Good burger made with local ingredients. I would recommend the Cheesey Poofs as an app. I am originally from Fayetteville and they own The Mash House there. Great beer and I was happy to see it on the menu. Good service and an excellent place to take a client, date, or friends. Ill be back again soon. read more

Tribeca is one of my favorite burger places around. They have such a great variety of premade burgers or build your own. Either way, I've had 3 different ones so far and never been disappointed. The prices are reasonable and service has always been great. Only note - if its summertime be careful sitting outside. A lot of bees flying around! We killed 5 once during one meal. I suggest sitting on the top balcony or on the side not facing Cafe Catura if you have to eat outside. read more

We happened to be in Cary and wanted to try a restaurant that we haven't been to yet. I would definitely eat here again. I would say 90% of the food they serve is local, from beers to produce. It seems they must be known for their burgers. The menu had endless choices of kobi beef, ground turkey, lamb, bison, and chicken burgers. For our appetizers we tried the zucchini fritters that were served with what seemed to be a spicy buffalo wing sauce. YUM!! I ordered the Jimmy the Greek which was made with ground lamb. I tried their sweet potato fries that came with a side of honey dipping sauce. SOOO good!!! If I'm ever in the area again, I'll be coming here to eat. Great eats for sure!! read more

I am sad that they took the pork chop off of the menu, that was my favorite thing to order at Tribeca Tavern. The cheesy puffs are always amazing and a good start to the meal though.

Heard thru the grapevine that TT has the following promo on Mondays: Tavern Burger (lettuce, tomato, onion, and cheese) and a Pint for $9.99. So I went with a buddy to partake in the aforementioned promo. Arrived @ TT, located in Cary, at the intersection of Davis Dr and High House Rd. They were operating on a wait for the Dining room so we grabbed the last booth in the Bar. Heather, our server extraordinaire, greeted us with a smile, explained the promo, and promptly took our order. (She also allowed this teetotaler to substitute Pepsi for the Pint). Our meal arrived in a timely manner and the Burger was on point! All in all, great burger, great value, and superlative service. Looking forward to my next Beer and Burger TT Monday. read more

We decided to stop by Tribeca for some afternoon drinks and an appetizer. It was our first time dining out since the spread of coronavirus. The host was extremely welcoming and we were seated outside immediately. Our server also greeted us immediately and made several great recommendations (both food and drinks.) We felt comfortable being spaced out enough from other tables. All of the staff were visibly working hard and making sure everyone felt comfortable in their new dining experience. The cocktails and food were great! Both the cocktails and the food were unique and different from your stereotypical American restaurant or bar food. Will definitely be returning. read more

The Wolfpack burger was well made. I loved the onion straws. I usually don't like sweet potato fries but I tried some from my nephew it was absolutely delicious. I'd definitely get them next time I come. My friend got the bison meatloaf and loved it.

NOTE: My Review is for their Private Room service My dad is old. I mean, like real old. He turned 80 this year. So, we wanted to celebrate with a big party. He may be old, but he still tears up a guitar solo with his bluegrass-picking friends. So we booked the private room at Tribeca for 40 some odd guests, half of whom brought their instruments. The party went off flawlessly. Matthew Cunningham was the man in charge, with 3 servers covering our party. Here's how it all breaks down: First, we wanted a few deviations from the party menu. Matthew helped us find appropriate dishes we could swap out at the same price. We also had one guest who has celiac disease and needed a completely gluten-free dish. No problem. Okay, we're still being picky, we want to bring in our own desserts. No problem, and they'll store them for us prior, set them up during dinner, as if we bought them there. Well, besides the music, we want to do toasts. And we're weird, we want the toasts with Diet Pepsi. No problem. Not only that, Matt offered up having the servers give out shotglasses of Diet Pepsi for the toast, and be on hand with pitchers for refills. And we had a very strict schedule. Which we changed 3 times during the actual party and Matt & team were right there with us, making it work with no complaints every step of the way. Oh yeah, the food was all perfect too. But, it was the service that blew us away (okay, the ribs blew us away too). Top marks for the entire staff for helping us pull off this thing perfectly. Sigh, in 3 years we do it again for mom. read more
