My friend and I decided to split two sandwiches so we could each try the Italian and the grilled ham and cheese. I can't tell you which I liked better but I can say, we both really liked the broccoli salad side - great option that you can't get everywhere. Perfect casual lunch spot across from Raleigh Iron Works

Firstly, the fact you can order while at the brewery next door is amazing. Secondly, the options on…read morethe menu were different but classic at the same time. The broccoli salad is outstanding and that was one of the best smash burgers ever. Super delivery service and love the whole vibe out there.

Interesting dill snack mix, friendly staff, and the usual bar food options. The charcuterie board was better than expected and just right to share.

I returned here with a friend after enjoying a Yelp event. It was very busy on a week day at lunch…read moretime and our lunch took a bit to arrive but it was all good once it did. I ordered the crispy cauliflower app which was delish! Don't let the raisins sway your decision - it's suttle but just right with the cauli. They add a romesco sauce that's flavorful add capers to add the salty goodness. Loved this! I also ordered the meatball app which was plenty. They were perfect size and more than enough for two. The sauce was rich and bold with flavor and a sprinkle of goat cheese was just right. I will return and try a few more apps next time.

This was our first time going to village tavern…read more It was packed on a weekday afternoon! We got seated very quickly which was a surprise. The food was excellent. Service was great. I heard some people next to us complain about the wait time for their food but given how busy it was, I don't think it was insanely long. We sat on the porch and it was really nice dinner! Will definitely be returning to try other menu options!

My husband and I went to the Village Tavern for dinner and ordered the NY Strip (med rare) and…read moremeatloaf. The NY Strip arrived more than well done, so we told the waitress and she apologized and sent it back to the kitchen. As I was eating the meatloaf, I noticed an off taste and texture. I looked closer and realized it was still pink/slimy/raw! How can meatloaf be raw? It's supposed to be fully cooked first and then grilled. Whoever sliced it from the "loaf" should have noticed it was not cooked before throwing it on the grill! We notified the manager when he came to apologize for the NY strip, so he took the meatloaf back to the kitchen. When the NY Strip came back out, my husband cut into it and it was shiny and purple inside, from top to bottom...absolutely rare. The waitress agreed it was rare and took it back to the kitchen again. When it came out for the third time, it was perfect (third time's a charm, I guess?). The only saving grace was the kind waitress who felt awful about the sub par food. The kitchen put her in an uncomfortable position, but she handled it with grace. We ordered the chocolate torte for dessert and it was very good, but that's the only thing I'd return for.

At 4:00 on a Saturday when they opened, we grabbed a couple bar seats and had terrific service. I enjoyed a nice Italian Pinot Grigio along with the roasted chicken, while Husband had the chopped steak meal. Simple comforting cooking. I did question the pink of the chicken and was told it was because it was rotisserie. Also it was served plain but when I inquired was brought some gravy which was exactly what the meal needed. Best parts were the fantastic rolls and butter and the super tasty key lime pie we shared. Perfection!

The tomatoes in the sauce were tasty, the mozzarella balls a welcome addition. Did not feel rushed. Got seated at 5 and left at 7. Service was extra slow.

The service was great too, I think our food was ready in less than 5 mins. The food came out before the water lol

The…read morehostess was really nice and the decor of the restaurant was sports themed with a bit of country... we liked it. We could watch the World Cup as well as other things. Our waitress was kind and went over the menu with us. Our orders: side of fries Well-fed (4 proteins and 2 sides) 2 of us shared Burnt ends plate with 2 sides We know that NC barbecue is NOT SC barbecue but anywho, the portion size was not what we expected for the Well-Fed nor did it match previous photos we'd seen. Our food was cold but tasty except for the macaroni and cheese, my daughters hated it. We politely let our waitress know and she took our plate back and the kitchen in turn, provided us with a whole new plate of food. We were ready to dig in but this time, the barbecue lacked flavor and my daughters were so disappointed and were ready to leave. I definitely appreciated the kitchen for trying to make it right but I don't think we'll be returning on our next trip to Raleigh.

The service is fast and friendly, the value received is good, and the ice tea is dark, strong, and…read moreactually tastes like tea. The food, unfortunately, is distinctly meh. The day's special, chicken pastry, was far too salty. The butter beans lived up to their name. Their texture was buttery soft but they also were over salted. Deviled eggs weren't bad but the pickle brine used in the filling had a strong cinnamon note. The fried chicken was described to me as dry. Banana pudding, which came with the meal, was served pleasantly warm but had neither meringue nor whipped cream. We don't see many restaurants like this anymore - straightforward Southern home cooking, the kind you used to see at meat 'n threes all over NC. It's too bad that Big Ed's no longer seems to be doing their part in maintaining that legacy.

When I arrived to pickup my lunch order (breakfast for lunch), it still wasn't quite ready. Then when I got back to work, I discovered how they were able to expedite things after my arrival. The grits tasted like they added some instants grits to the already cooked grits and it had a powdery uncooked taste to the texture. Everything else was fine, but I couldn't eat the grits.
