“Staff clearly knows what's gluten free, happily points it out on the menu and at the dipping sauce station. Dipping sauce station is super clean and appeared free of contamination, no mixing of ingredients/sauces. Vegan options are obvious on the menu, and plentiful. Service was stellar, and soooo was the food! This is is my new favorite, hands down. Show up hungry, the servings are generous.”

Beautiful clean rooms and hotel ambiance, relaxing SPA with all possible amenities, amazing couple massage session and delicious dinner.

“Wow! The atmosphere of M Sushi was incredible! The service and the food were equally impeccable. I felt our server was incredibly attentive and she explained each course in detail, which I appreciated. Everything was so delicious and fresh. I highly recommend M Sushi for a special occasion or a nice dinner.”

“If you are planning a special occasion or just want a night out at a wonderful restaurant, I have a bit of advice for you. Go to Chef Palette! This establishment has got it together. The atmosphere is just lovely. We planned our son and future daughter-in-law's rehearsal dinner from afar, way far.....Michigan. As stressful as that could have been, Kathie did everything to ease our stress. She calmed this Momma's heart and executed everything to a "T". The appetizer table was not only displayed beautifully, it was YUMMY! The salad, main entrees and dessert did not disappoint. But most of all, the staff was most kind and extremely professional. We cannot thank Kathie and the staff at Chef Palette enough for the wonderful and memorable evening we shared together. GO TO CHEF's PALETTE!”

Chinese • $
“I absolutely loved my experience at Miss Chang An. The food tasted incredibly authentic — every bite brought back memories of home. The liangpi (cold noodles) were perfectly chewy and full of flavor, and the beef soup was rich, comforting, and deeply satisfying. You can really tell the dishes are made with care. The staff were warm and welcoming, and the cozy atmosphere made it feel like a hidden gem. I’m so glad I found this place — it’s definitely one of the best Chinese restaurants I’ve been to in the Triangle area. Highly recommended!”

“My husband and I travel through Cary, North Carolina, about once every two months. We always make a point to dine at another Nepales’s restaurant nearby, but it was closed on Monday this time. The front desk staff at the Hyatt hotel in Cary suggested the Nepal House so we thought we would give it a try because we really had a craving for that type of food and we have been waiting all day to arrive so that we could dine at the other Nepal restaurant. The experience at the Nepal House was exceptional! The service was wonderful, my husband had a lamb dish and I had a chicken tandoor dish, I also had a house salad, and the best thing we had was the Momo’s! Everything was exceptional, but the Momo’s were to die for, we had never had them before and they were just out of this world you can’t go without having the Momos! They have a bar and a nice selection of wines. Everything was wonderful and we can’t wait to return again soon! We highly recommend this restaurant!”

“I recommend the pina colada mochi, I am not much of a coconut shred person but this was delicious! And you don’t really taste the coconut shred toppings. And the queen moscat oolong tea was very smooth and light. And I’m not a tea person definitely would try it again. The cherry blossom sencha fruit tea with boba definitely a fruity drink and love the apple slices and oranges inside, definitely will order it again.”

“Spent the day exploring downtown Cary and came across this little bistro! Outside dining was great! Amazing food and friendly service! Sophia, my waitress was fantastic! Very friendly and attentive! The cocktail “The Butterfly Effect “ is just as good as it is pretty! The baked Brie and arugula/beet salad was delicious! Great find in Cary for sure!”
Asian Fusion • $$$
“Made a reservation here a week ahead for a special occasion and was super excited to try it out. Our reservation was for 8pm and we arrived fifteen minutes early and didn’t get sat until around 8:30-8:45 but Being that I also work in the food industry and it’s Covid times, I didn’t see it as a big deal. I do wish I had snacked before hand though! They did send edamame to our table for the inconvenience once we were finally sat though which was a super nice and unnecessary gesture. Also, the ambience is lovely and super romantic. The best sushi I have ever had. So light and flavorful. We even got some dessert and I have to say the mochi doughnuts were to die for - I wish the chocolate sauce for dipping had been dark chocolate but that’s my personal preference. The only negative thing I have to say is it is a little pricey so it won’t be a regular spot for me personally but definitely a place to check out for special events or date nights.”

You can absolutely tell it's local and fresh (and I normally think that's BS). Started with the Crispy Brussels Sprouts and then the Homage to the Pig and my wife got the Shrimp Pasta.

Barbeque • $$
“I have visited this restaurant probably about 10 times and not once have I ever got a bad experience. The service has always been welcoming and hospitable, plus there large selection in meat and even appetizers. I find the portions to be just the right amount so you can allow your stomach to experience the different food without having to call quits after 3 dishes. This place is certainly a hidden gem in the Cary area and I recommend to come here with friends or even by yourself!”
Japanese • $$
“The food was delicious, presented attractively, and authentic. The portion sizes were a bit small for the price, but we just got to try a few more appetizers. Some in my party were not familiar with Japanese food, so it was a good way to introduce a range of various dishes and options. The staff was very friendly and helpful, with great recommendations. The parking lot is a little strange, be aware that you can't drive around the building.”

We had tandoori mixed grill, butter chicken, Somosa chaat, aloo gobi, naans, raita and mango chutney. We have tried so many Indian restaurants in the area, this one is our new favorite. Their food, portions and prices are the best. The ginger lemon tea is a bonus!”
Bakery • $$

Brunch • $

Breakfast • $
“Unusual experience today at first watch. Greeter appeared to be a disinterested customer, approached me and asked “how many” while paying more attention to his phone than to my answer. Wasn’t dressed in the normal uniform and while I answered him I still assumed he was joking around since none of the workers were present. I’m sure my breakfast will be great as usual but someone needs to train him that he is the first impression a customer is going to get and my interaction with him wasn’t great”

Ramen • $
“Miso Ramen bar is undeniably delicious, and my son considers it his favorite ramen spot. Situated conveniently near Downtown Raleigh, the restaurant offers ample parking. I recommend arriving a bit early as there may be a short wait (reservations are not accepted), but there is bar seating available. Upon arrival, you can add your name to the waitlist, which is a nice touch. The restaurant is consistently busy, yet always well-maintained with clean facilities. The servers are knowledgeable about the menu and go the extra mile to ensure a welcoming experience. Whether dining with friends or adults, everyone can find something appetizing on the menu. Here is what we order on our most recent visit: Karage Wings $12 Pork Belly Buns (2) $9 Kids Miso Ramen with Chicken and Eggs Grilled Chicken Rice Bowl $12 The food was delicious overall, and I particularly enjoyed the wings and the pork belly bun. A tip to keep in mind: it's best to finish the wings while you're at the restaurant. If you have any leftovers and take them home, they don't reheat well.”

“Really good bagels but nearly $6 for a bagel with cream cheese! I’ve been 3 times and it’s always consistent— the S&P bagel is so good! Breakfast sandwiches are delicious but over $10! I’m from CA and even in San Francisco you’d be hard pressed to find a bagel that’s $6– maybe a breakfast sandwich but not a bagel with cream cheese. The cream cheese is DELICIOUS! Chewy bagels. The two young women I’ve seen at the register have been unfriendly and somewhat cranky each time I come in.”

Bubble Tea • $$
“This place is an absolute hidden gem! I was curious how Indian ice cream, boba, and pizza could all exist under one roof — but somehow they pull it off perfectly.
The Indian ice cream (kulfi) is rich, creamy, and full of authentic flavor — I tried the pistachio and mango, and both tasted just like the ones I’ve had in India. You can tell they use real ingredients and not artificial syrupy stuff.
The boba tea is also top-tier — chewy pearls, not too sweet, and a great selection of both classic and creative flavors. I got a rose chai milk tea with brown sugar boba and it blew my mind.
And the pizza? Surprisingly amazing. The paneer tikka pizza is next-level — the crust is perfectly crispy and they’re generous with toppings. It’s not your usual pizza spot — it’s got personality and flavor.
The place is clean, the staff is super friendly, and the menu is full of cool surprises. Whether you’re in the mood for something savory, sweet, or refreshing, you’ll find something to love here.
Highly recommend — I’ll definitely be back (probably too often 😅)!”

“MC is by far one of the very best restaurants in the Triangle & in the State. The quality of the service, culinary experience, & ambiance rival the Michelin Star restaurants across the country I’ve had the pleasure of dining at. If there’s any restaurant in the state that deserves Michelin recognition, it’s MC. The consistency of quality even with an ever-changing menu keeps me coming back for more. I’ve taken many friends & family here & I constantly get asked when we’ll be coming back. Bravo Chef, you’ve built an incredible experience.”

“I can't sing Chettinad Anjappar Party Catering's praises enough! At the outset, want to sincerely thank you for being so accommodating at such short notice and allowing we to rent your banquet space for last evening.. Special thank you to, Om Prakash, for his immediate responses (and patience!) and the fact that his entire team Ragan, Parasuram, and the rest of the crew are so genuine and caring. The food was absolutely delicious and the service you provide was outstanding, that too with a smile till the end. Thank you Anjappar Restaurant for making my husband’s 40th surprise birthday celebrations a grand success!!! We couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate this milestone birthday of his. It has been a pleasure to do business with you and will knock your doors again & again :)!”

“Hubby & I ate here when their food truck came to 1792 Beer Co in Roxboro last week. We both have eaten a lot of bbq BUT this was literally THE best we’ve ever eaten! Ever!! I’d never tried Alabama white bbq sauce & it was to die for!! Their red sauce was good but omg that white sauce!! Their pulled pork was amazing! Hubby got the carni plate & loved it! I was sad that they’d ran out of mac n cheese. Hoping to try it next time! Please make a return visit to Roxboro!”

“Honestly for a hotel restaurant my food was really good! I usually avoid eating in the hotel but tonight I was too tired to go out. So I grabbed a complimentary drink for the reception and ordered a fried chicken sandwich. Service was friendly and prompt. The sandwich arrived hot and honesty was one of the better chicken sandwiches I've had. It had really good flavor and was juicy with fresh lettuce. The fries were cooked perfect to fit my liking which is crispy but not destroyed. Sorry I should've taken a picture... Fyi the table next to me got salads which looked really good.If you want to stay close or order room service I think you'll be pleasantly surprised as I was. Ignore the 1 star reviews that don't really relate to the restaurant. They also had a manager waking around checking on customers which is always a good sign that they care.”

“Had a very nice two night weekend stay. Room was very nice. Dining atmosphere leaves a lot to be desired. The restaurant/bar area and in turn the library room are EXTREMELY noisy!!! Use some sound deadening materials for Christ sake!! We wanted to relax in the library area which is very comfortable but couldn’t last more than a few minutes because of the the noise from the dining room. It wasn’t that there were loud groups either. The room is very noisy. Simple conversations had to get continually louder to overcome the noise which made it even worse. During dinner with two people we were forced to raise out voices to we could hear each other. Just not acceptable in an otherwise very nice hotel.”

“I ordered through uber eats. They had a special for buy one get one free on their salmon box. I also got a California roll. I thought the sushi was good. I had no problems with ordering and will likely order again. I have seen a lot of negative reviews from other customers regarding uber orders. While I can't speak to their experience, I had no issue with my meal. The sushi, again, was good. Not perfect, but as good as I could expect from delivered sushi. EDIT: ordered again the same thing. No problems. Good sushi.”

“Beautiful setting as it gets dark and outside lights come on. Hadxwibe fkights, 3 -2 oz glasses and shared the hummus and pear Gorgonzola flatbread. Plenty for the 2 of us (both women). Wine pours could be a bit more generous but a pretty good value.”

“The restaurant has been tastefully redecorated - a modern, clean look, with big windows looking out over the pond next door, and a nice outdoor dining area. tasteful, not loud background music. This is definitely NOT a typical tex-mex place. The chef has trained in Mexico, and the dishes are all superbly prepared. We go to Mexico frequently, and the tortilla soup was among the very best we've ever tasted. The mole enchiladas were superbly rich and flavorful. The flan's description is far too modest. They left out the black raspberry, blueberries, mint garnish and orange/brown sugar glaze. Wow! Service was attentive and helpful. Not a fancy place, but a place to return to again, and again. At least 5 stars!”

“My husband and I travel through Cary, North Carolina, about once every two months. We always make a point to dine at another Nepales’s restaurant nearby, but it was closed on Monday this time. The front desk staff at the Hyatt hotel in Cary suggested the Nepal House so we thought we would give it a try because we really had a craving for that type of food and we have been waiting all day to arrive so that we could dine at the other Nepal restaurant. The experience at the Nepal House was exceptional! The service was wonderful, my husband had a lamb dish and I had a chicken tandoor dish, I also had a house salad, and the best thing we had was the Momo’s! Everything was exceptional, but the Momo’s were to die for, we had never had them before and they were just out of this world you can’t go without having the Momos! They have a bar and a nice selection of wines. Everything was wonderful and we can’t wait to return again soon! We highly recommend this restaurant!”

“Unusual experience today at first watch. Greeter appeared to be a disinterested customer, approached me and asked “how many” while paying more attention to his phone than to my answer. Wasn’t dressed in the normal uniform and while I answered him I still assumed he was joking around since none of the workers were present. I’m sure my breakfast will be great as usual but someone needs to train him that he is the first impression a customer is going to get and my interaction with him wasn’t great”

“First time visit and it was great. Different flavors of milkshakes and I wanted to try the new pumpkin pie shake. That first sip was phenomenal. Tasted like a solid pumpkin pie slice, but after getting halfway thru, there was something that was very overpowering. Almost as if it went from pumpkin pie to ginger snaps. Which isn’t bad, but I’m more of a pumpkin pie guy. Staff was friendly and engaging. And the strawberry shortcake sundae…great! Fresh strawberries, pieces of fluffy cake and ice cream. Would definitely head back.”

“I’ve been eating at Chipotle for over a decade and some stores in the Triangle area (and on a larger scale) have definitely dipped in quality over the past few years, but the food at this location was really good. I was also happy to see that the inside of the store was very clean and well-kept. It looked well-staffed at around 7:30PM on a weekday. Keep up the good work at this location! This will be my new go-to Chipotle.”
“Very good idea for family and friends”
