    Front of the Aloft with teh X XYZ bar.
    Bruce K.

    The WXYZ is a fixture at the Aloft chain of hotels. It's a separate business but it's attached to and inside the hotel. And you can still charge your bill to your room. Sometimes with live entertainment and sometimes with just background music, you'll find beer, other drinks, snacks and meals. There's a pool table and comfy seating. At the end of a long day, the very cold beer that I enjoyed here before turning in for the night was very welcome. Great friendly service.

    This bar is located in the lobby of the aloft hotel. The atmosphere is cute, cool and unique. There's lots of seating, TVs and a pool table. While I loved staying at Aloft the bar left much to be desired. The bartender was much more interested in talking to her friend than doing anything else. They didn't have a lot of things so they couldn't make a Singapore sling or a amaretto sour. But what left a bad taste in my mouth, literally, was the sex on the beach. It was the worse drink I've ever tasted in my life. The drink hit my tongue and it immediately made me want to throw up. I think I took two sips and she saw the look of disgust on my face so she very kindly poured the atrocity down the drain. Apparently she makes a strong whiskey and coke if you're into that but definitely stay far away from the sex on the beach

    By far, 5+ stars...the bar was amazing. Not only was the food good & ambience perfect BUT my guy, the bartender, Larry, was top notch. His drinks..omgsh, absolutely delicious...art. Amazing service, he definitely cares for his customers & his food/drinks/service/reputation. DEFINITELY recommend. If you're ever in the area, definitely stay at this hotel &/or visit this bar. 15/10. Also, I had the burger & fries & had just gotten in from the airport...delicious.

    This is the ad

    Not sure if breakfast is done by WXYZ or Aloft. The images and descriptions of the breakfast bowls are pretty good. What you get is just barely fit.

    Very cool hip decor'

Was not happy when we approached the hostess, we were placed on a wait list because of kitchen staffing shortage with tons of open tables. When we sat at the bar, we asked if the kitchen was backed up and she said, no. Setting that aside and giving 4 stars for the bar service and quality of food and cocktails.

We wanted to give them the benefit of doubt and saw they had love island watch parties. We came early to secure a spot. Told the host why we came and he sat us right by the TV. We waited for it to begin. We tried to order the theme drinks and were told no because it's only when the show begins. (Mind you this was 10 mins prior to show time) Then the show was supposed to begin and none of the tvs were on the show. We watched them play with remotes for 15 mins. Still they didn't put it on the half of the bar were 4 groups were waiting. 30mins into the show we didn't see our server, no one told us it was only showing in the pool area. Us and another table had to get up to see it was on the other side of the bar. Mind you, there was no sound for a WATCH PARTY! So people were reading subtitles. Finally our server came and apologized about it not being on our side. We asked for the check and she charged us for those drinks WE NEVER GOT! That were sitting at the bar for 30mins. (That if you remember we couldn't order?!?) Then she hands us the drinks when we asked, now melted and still we had to pay for them even though we were literally leaving.

I don't live in the area, but will return when I return. My only complaint was the stools which were rather uncomfortable.

The business is spacious, bright with cute decor, and had several tables & sitting areas. The restaurant is kid friendly as there were several little kids running area the restaurant. Once you walk in you place your order at the counter & your food is brought to you. You have the option of keeping your tab open. The woman at the counter wasn't very personable. We ended up ordering a supreme pizza with the option of getting all of the meat & vegetable toppings that are available. We customized our pizza. The pizza looked good & cooked on the outside but was kind of gummy on the inside as if it were cooked too fast & wasn't done inside. We had time constraints so we were unable to get the pizza recooked.

Service was quick and the food options are plenty. We started off with an order of Bang Bang Shrimp since we love theirs. We also tried the sticky ribs, which were good. My partner got one of their mocktails, which we both enjoyed. As I mentioned, LuluBangBang has so many food options so it was hard to choose. I love a bento box so I went with that and I was very happy with my choice. It comes with hibachi chicken, rice, 3 pieces of nigiri, and some fresh pieces of fish. I was impressed with how good the fresh fish was! Then for dessert we had their Thai tea creme brulee and blueberry peach cake. The Thai tea creme brulee was delicious - it tasted exactly like Thai tea! The blueberry peach cake was less sweet than I anticipated and did not have any peach flavor but was also still very good. The only weird thing is the water. It tastes like a mix of metallic and flat seltzer water. We asked our waiter if he maybe gave us sparkling water and he said no, that's just how their tap water tastes. Take with that what you will. Overall, our bill was about $200 for 4 people, which is about what you will spend anywhere in the Triangle for a nicer dinner now. Definitely worth a visit and I look forward to when we will come back.

The food is where it loses me because of how expensive it is and how it just not good enough to justify the price. We went for our 5 year anniversary. We called ahead to have the whole duck. But it definitely not a whole duck. It definitely was a lovely experience but it a bit expensive and not every part of the duck like we thought. We got some appetizers. We ordered the wellness soup and the tea smoked fish fillet. Both were super yummy. We ordered this lobster dish which right away was too rubbery and overcooked after one bite. The wait staff was quick to suggest us to order something else after noticing we didn't love it. He took our lobster away and we went with the seafood Tom Yum. It was yummy but again not worth the price. I have had more flavorful options for a better price. We got the tea which was wonderful. It was nice how they kept it warm and kept refilling the hot water. We got some dessert which was yummy but nothing special. Again I think it was a good place but for the price it needs to be more consistent and have a better wow factor.
