Shake Shack Waverly Place

★★★★☆ 3.6 (264) • $$

"I haven't been here in a while and heard about the chicken sandwich so decided to give it a try on a Sunday afternoon. Got the regular chicken sandwich and a sunset lemonade. Both were very good and I would get both again. The piece of chicken was bigger than the bun and very good. I like the condiment and shredded lettuce and pickles on it. Really makes a nice sandwich. The service was good both at the register and the young man who brought the food. The place was clean and the drink station was clean and well maintained. That's where the napkins and ketchup are too. Drinks are self serve except for tea....you have to go up and ask for it. The music is very loud and I imagine with a lot of people in the room it would be hard to hear anyone at your table. They have outdoor seating but it was not a good day for it. Maybe it's quieter out there. They have computers set up where you can order but you have to use a card to pay."

Vegan Community Kitchen

★★★★★ 4.6 (155) • $$

"I ordered online through their website. The order was ready in twenty minutes. When I arrived I was greeted with two smiling faces. It felt like home. Did I want to try a new menu item, their burrito bowl launching next week? Did I see that they had posted Ethiopian dishes on the menu, too? The decorations matched the owners' kind, bright and sunny moods. I ordered the three bean salad and a Kitchen burger and they gave me a sample of the new menu item, the burrito bowl, to-go. My husband ate all my three bean salad and he also loved the burrito bowl. We are excited for the new owners who are helping to strengthen the plant-based community. I can't wait to make this a habit."

Dank Burrito

★★★★☆ 3.9 (78)

"I had a bowl with pork belly and chicken. The food at Dank is delicious. Very fresh. The staff is welcoming and does a great job fulfilling orders quickly without interfering with the freshness. The ordering counter was clean and well stocked with items needed for your order."

The Gyro Spot

★★★★☆ 4.3 (64) • $$

"100.0 health score as of June 2024 woohoo. They do have souvlaki with an option of getting it on a kebab or in a pita. I ordered the chicken souvlaki in a pita and it was delicious. I also tried the avgolemono soup which was delicious. I like that the baklava price is for a full square, not just a triangle half."

Wings Over Chapel Hill

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (98) • $

"First time trying this franchise, and I was impressed. The wings were perfectly cooked and crispy, and the level 2 hot wings were the perfect heat level for me. The dry rub was my favorite, and the price was reasonable for the quality. I also appreciate that they're open late until 1 a.m."

NC Bagel Cafe & Deli

★★★★☆ 3.5 (88) • $

"Bottom line: Breakfast at NC Bagel & Deli was not bad but not over the top. Adequate Meat Lovers omelet but a good bagel accompanying it. The Deets:I stopped in for breakfast one day at NC Bagel Cafe & Deli, located in the Grace Park complex in Morrisville. When you walk in for breakfast, it is more like a bagel shop and short order kitchen/grill type of restaurant put together. Their hours on their website currently display at the time of this writing open each day 7am-1pm. I decided to take advantage of both sides by ordering one of their omelet selections that included a toasted bagel with it. I ordered the Meat Lovers omelet that menu online describes "Made with 3 eggs, Sausage, Ham & Bacon Served with Bagel Or Bread" so I chose a plain bagel which was toasted with butter. Service ordering at the counter was good, I had to repeat a couple of things but went OK and then waited for my order that was for dining in to come up so I could carry it back to one of their tables. My order was up in good time, no long wait. The omelet was OK, nothing extravagant but I have to note that the sausage, ham, and bacon meat bits were sprinkled on top of the omelet instead of inside or mixed within it (I say bits, as they were not large pieces of meat but did the job for giving the meat flavor for the omelet, see pic). It was a short order type omelet that did the job. I do like the plain bagel I had with it, and would probably have one again with a cream cheese schmear next time. This quick breakfast did the trick and if wanting a quick short order breakfast and don't feel like going to a fast food place to get it then come here and get your fast breakfast fix."

Aubreys and Peedies Grill

★★★★★ 4.6 (38)

"I enjoyed the double cheeseburger. However, I didn't appreciate seeing the servers touch the burgers and fries with bare hands. "Hands are not sterile. Touch your own food at home, not the customers' food. Wear gloves, if necessary!" There was a long waiting line outside; the locals love this place. The staff were friendly."

Jersey Boy Subs

★★★★☆ 4.2 (33)

"This sub shop was really good. They have a lot of options, my husband and I both chose a half Jersey Boy! Club and my mom chose a half meatball sub. All subs come straight up, that includes lettuce, onion, tomato, salt, Jersey Juice and spices. I also added mayo and honey mustard. The meat was thinly sliced and all of the subs were tasty. I liked that they had Miss Vickie's chips too, I chose sea salt. If you are in the area, check this spot out."

Burger Barn

★★★★☆ 4.2 (21)

"My annual go to spot when I'm traveling through North Carolina. On my most recent stop here I had been working a photography run on US-158 with another photographer and said "Hey, I know where we're going for lunch". We pulled into the gravel parking lot and walked up to the counter. I already knew what I wanted while my friend looked over the menu. We both ended up getting Bacon Cheeseburgers and Onion Rings with a soda. My burger was as good as it always is and my friend was duly impressed with his a well. I did notice the onion rings had changed since last year. Previously when I had them they were hand made. These appeared to have been frozen from a bad. They were still good. I love to slather my onion rings in mustard and that's exactly what I did. I'm looking forward to another visit at Burger Barn soon. Real soon, in fact right after everything is back to business as normal I'll be taking a trip down to Lewiston, NC. Guess what's on the way!!!"

Firehouse Subs

★★★☆☆ 2.9 (44) • $

"Best sandwiches in Johnston County! Their menu offers choices to please anyone, with just about every kind of meat to tickle your tastebuds. I really like their beef and cheddar sandwich with barbecue sauce! Get 'em hot or cold, and in small or large sizes, and be sure to add a bag of delicious kettle chips. Service is fast and friendly. The store and its bathrooms are very clean and roomy. As the name suggests, you're also supporting your firefighters and first responders.Great for lunch or dinner, or takeout for a party."

Ta Contento - Mex Fresh Food

★★★★★ 4.5 (14)

"Just to get a few things out of the way:* It's "gas station adjacent" - situated in an unfortunate former BK literally inside of a gas station building.* they have a truck, but this is not the truck. Also it's not a chain. * it's more expensive than hole-in-the-wall taquerias - entrees are in the $14 range.Having said all that - the food is EXCELLENT. Everything is cooked to order. I had quesabirria tacos, and my wife had chicken soup that had tons of fresh avocado in it."

Chicken Bee - Raleigh

★★★★★ 4.7 (11)

"Crunchy and flavorful! For anyone new to Korean chicken, expect to wait for your chicken order. It's not a quick service fast food joint. Korean fried chickens, if done right, are all made by order. So your chicken is going to be hot and fresh.There are plenty of seating for small to large groups. I hope to see a lunch special one day."

Chick-fil-A

★★★★☆ 3.8 (16)

"I really like this location. It's brand new, not overly crowded, and all of the workers are very friendly. I always place my order online via the app and you can either pick up your order inside or at the drive-thru."

Char Grill Nine

★★★☆☆ 2.7 (29)

"I'd not been to a Char Grill before so after my shopping trip to Harris Teeter it seemed like a good day to stop. I went to the drive thru which looking back might not have been the best idea as I wasn't familiar with the menu but thankfully the menu was small and I could order quickly. I went with the double and made a combo. I customized it to have tomatoes and lettuce with the cheese. They were generous with the toppings but the tomato slices weren't ripe so that is my only disappointment here. The burger was delicious and the fries were some of the best I ever had. Somehow those fries stayed hot the whole drive home too. The prices are more expensive than other places but when you are looking for something a little better than typical fast food this is your place. The service was very friendly and my order was prepared as ordered. The sanitation score was high too so that is important to me."

Shake Shack Village District

★★★★☆ 3.5 (17)

"I'm a Shake Shack fan and this was my first visit to the Village District location. I went on a weeknight and it wasn't very busy. I placed my order online ahead of time and while it was a few minutes late, it was hot and correct. My family and I ended up eating outside on one of their sidewalk tables. They had plenty of indoor and outdoor seating while we were there. My son loved the bacon and avocado cheeseburger, while I always opt for the traditional Shack burger. Sometimes simple is just the best! I like their fries, I don't love them. I also do thoroughly enjoy their shakes and love how they have different special flavors every month. Overall a solid spot to grab a burger and order online if you are hoping to cut down on some of the wait!"

Jersey Mike's Subs

★★☆☆☆ 2.2 (21)

"I wonder if the owner if this location realizes how poorly it performs compared to other locations? As written in my review four months ago, this place is dirty. The soda fountain dispenser tray must have been clogged as the entire counter was covered in cola. As I was leaving, I overheard a customer being told it would be 20 minutes until they had more white sub rolls. So at 5:30 Saturday evening they have no bread at a sub shop? Nuff said."

Highway 55 Burgers Shakes & Fries

★★★☆☆ 2.7 (13)

"I am giving 3 stars because the fries were excellent. My cheesesteak had a lot of meat, but the bun had the texture that happens when a bun is microwaved. My wife's chicken sandwich was mediocre, what little chicken there was, was very dry. The service was questionable. While waiting for the order, a customer spilled a coke at the cash register so our order sat for at least 5 minutes while the mess was being cleaned up, though the clerk certainly could have taken the few seconds needed to hand us the order. We probably wont return."

Bojangles

★★☆☆☆ 1.8 (19) • $

"I'm not much of a breakfast eater but I decided to get a biscuit. The staff was as friendly as any I have ever experienced. I was greeted with "It's BO TIME!!"Their biscuit recipe is too salty for my taste, but it was good.If I lived nearby I would go back."

Subway

★★☆☆☆ 1.8 (19) • $

"One of the better subway locations I've been to. The staff was friendly, ingredients were fresh, and sandwiches were prepared in a timely and neat manner. Interior was fairly standard and clean."

Jimmy John's

★★★☆☆ 2.9 (7)

"Great fast fresh reliable sandwiches.. The favorites with double meat are my favs.Love the place."

Jersey Mike's Subs

★★★★☆ 3.5 (4)

"Good stuff at this brand new Jersey Mike's on Forestville Road.It's what you expect... Freshly sliced meat, dressed to order... With a dash of "juice". There's a full team working and they're well trained and eager to please. I was in and out in 10 minutes, even with a few others in line. It'll be interesting to see who wins the sub wars around here since Publix is at the other end of the Plaza... And we all know the reputation of the Pub Sub. Tough choice... And I like 'em both!"

Hardee's

★★☆☆☆ 1.7 (12)

"I have been giving this Hardee's a chance for a few months now. It has been fairly good. The people working there aren't too friendly. We only eat breakfast foods here. But today was not so good. I ordered a sausage biscuit with egg and a biscuit with gravy. I kid you not, 2 tiny pieces of sausage in the gravy, that's it! The biscuit on the sausage and egg biscuit was so dark and it was awful tasting. Whoever packaged that biscuit should be ashamed of themselves. I would never give that out to a customer. I'm not sure I will be returning. Do better Hardee's!"

Subway

★★☆☆☆ 1.6 (13) • $

"Always clean and well-stocked. Friendly service and well-made sandwiches. It's Subway after all so I'm not expecting the freshest produce ever, but sometimes you can really tell that sandwich toppings were previously frozen. However, sandwich artists are willing to seek out freshest looking toppings in the bucket if prompted. Satisfies my pregnancy craving for their pickles, so meets my needs for now. Solid Subway restaurant overall."
