Best Lunch Restaurants in Raleigh

Lilly was a great server. Food came out at a good pace. Price of food was exactly what is expected for quality of the restaurant. We were seated in the center of the dining room at a table for two didn’t feel crowded at all especially for valentines day.

We had a wonderful meal at Mandolin. The service was excellent, as was the food (we both had the lamb dish). Their wine list is first rate, although not inexpensive. Very highly recommended - one of our favorite Raleigh restaurants.

Gravy is always a favorite date night spot for us! It was even sweeter being able to celebrate Valentine’s Day there! Cannot recommend Gravy enough!

Service was outstanding, ambiance was exquisite. Seating was very comfortable. Prices are high but you are paying for the ambiance. Reminds me of eating in west palm beach. Very classy. Portions sizes were all good. I had the RH Bellini.. good flavor, tasty drink. Started with the crispy artichokes. They had good flavor. Was my friend's first time trying artichokes and he enjoyed them. Next, I had the the Branzino. Friend had the Ribeye. Not a ton of flavor. Expect more flavor for the price.. but still, not bad. Truffle fries and asparagus were both good. Finished with the butterscotch brûlée. Sweet and it was enough for us to share. Overall, we enjoyed the meal and experience. We went for lunch. We didn't have to wait and it wasn't over crowded.

Our group had a great experience. We all loved what we got and our server was lovely. We were there the day before Valentine’s Day and we all loved the cute valentine’s postcards we received with out bills to take home for our loved ones.
