4 out of 5 stars

The found out about Gateway Restaurant on restaurant.com. We went with our $10 certificate, hoping to find another diner which this area seems to be short on compared to where I used to live. This diner is not near our apartment but we were headed downtown. It’s ( Read more... )

Brigs

4 out of 5 stars

I went to Brigs with my husband two weeks ago and we really enjoyed it.  It was crowded on a Saturday morning, which is always a good sign.  Service was quick, food was bountiful and very reasonable, and the only thing that stopped us from eating more was ( Read more... )

Daylight Donuts

4 out of 5 stars

On the scale of density, with Krispy Kreme on the feather pillow end and Dunkin Donuts in the middle, these are on the other side of the spectrum.  They are denser but still completely enjoyable and delectably fresh.  The coffee is also good, not ( Read more... )

Finch's Restaurant

4 out of 5 stars

Most everything at this down home diner is under $6.  The coffee is excellent (and I am very picky) and the food is above average, especially considering the prices.  They really make you feel at home here.  Remember to bring cash, as they don't ( Read more... )

Courtney's

2/5 stars

This place has food that is somewhere between IHOP and Denny's quality.  I don't recommend it.  And it's pricier than both of those places.

Country breakfast

My closest thing to a country breakfast being Cracker Barrel, I didn't know what to expect at Big Ed's. We went on a Monday, so it wasn't very crowded, which is good because I didn't want to have to deal with smokiness inside.  Big Ed is a former ( Read more... )

Perfect Breakfast Spot

My husband and I stopped by this cute cafe for Sunday brunch on a weekend visit to Raleigh. It was recommended on here and by some chowhounds on the message boards. I have to say it was a great choice. I had the filet mignon eggs benedict. ( Read more... )

I have been to Ellie’s twice, once for breakfast and once for lunch.  On both occasions the food was mediocre and the service was average or worse.  The décor is neat, and the place is large.  They can accommodate banquets and large groups in their dining hall in the back.  The menu consists of a number of traditional choices, all with clever names ( Read more... )

Delicious, Busy Classic Diner on Las Olas

My whole family came here for breakfast the day after my wedding in an impromptu shuffle down Las Olas. We had about 17 of us and they managed to seat us in about 15-20 minutes, regardless of the fact that they were packed ( Read more... )
