Reviews
"Protein options are mostly fried and full of fat or carbs. Although the place and menu is good with great options the food itself is trying to be gourmet"
"Surprisingly reasonably priced, excellent quality food that was both kid-friendly and adult-friendly. It's simple fare- soups, wraps, and sandwiches, mostly, but all very good. There were also plenty of vegetarian options and while I didn't check, I presume also some gluten-free. The coffee bar was solid, and there were even some local brews. All in all, I was super impressed and so were the kids."
"This place is inside the NC Museum of National Sciences so the atmosphere is fun. Be prepared for lots of kids which is not a bad things. Food is yummy and comes out pretty quick. Staff is friendly. Very environmentally friendly with compostable plates, cups, etc. A little pricey but not outrageous. Par for the course in downtown."
"Oh man! I can honestly say the day we went. I did not expect the food to be this tasteful. Service was quick enough for what we ordered. Even the kids food was good. Good sized portions across the board. This place here could be the reason to get a membership to the museum of natural science."
"I will definitely come back here. Food ordering was fast on a weekday and the food was made to order. Tables were clean and staff are friendly. Water cup looks good and water tasted good, can't complain :) Chicken and waffle is amazing and almost half the price as the popular one in downtown. Waffles were very fresh and fluffy and all cost only 7.20 with discount, this is in downtown, so that is a great price! The spicy fish sandwich is ok, the buns tasted very good and smell good lol, but the fried fish filet is too small. Would have been better if it was a bigger cut of fish. I have found my second favorite spot in downtown Raleigh for lunch that offers great food at low prices!"
