Plum Southern Kitchen & Bar

"Modern Southern dining in downtown Durham. Plum focuses on offering the best home style dishes with quality ingredients, creativity + warm hospitality. The atmosphere is a take of downtown old brick Durham with a twist of southern flare interior. This restaurant shows off the little details; check presenters are tiny butcher cutting boards, the bookshelves feature southern touches (books to roosters to farm candles). The team members are inviting + friendly. Too, this restaurant is known as a supporter for living wage employer, which is wonderful for their employees. Truly is one-of-a-kind farm to table experience. See pictures + descriptions of our favorites."

"IG: @_thefoodietraveler OMGEEEEZZZZ, where do I begin. A friend suggested this spot and so we went. After a long day in the NC heat (we're from Delaware) this place was a perfect delight. We arrived about 20min early so we sat outside and the Manager gave us cold water while we waited. For starters we wanted everything on the menu, but we chose the Heirloom Tomato Salad (delicious like the tomatoes were selected just for us, fresh and juicy), Brisket Taco (tender and well seasoned), Cheddar Drop Biscuits (cheesy and fluffy), and the Allium Creamed Herbed Gnocchi (creamy, light and delicious). Our entrées included Shrimp and Grits and the Snapper. Dinner was phenomenal. The restaurant ambiance was clean and welcoming and our server was pleasant and have suggestions on what to order. We were traveling from Delaware and wanted something good to eat. So glad we stopped here. This place deserves an award!!!"

"Outstanding meal, knowledgeable staff and friendly. We ordered the entire menu and every dish was delightful."

"Came here as part of a private event. The starters were bibb salad with maple apple cider vinaigrette which was so good and the cheddar biscuits were also very tasty. We had 4 different sides, and one of them was Southern Succotash which was really delicious! Highly recommend! The entree was squash terrine and it was also really good but the sauce was a bit too sweet for my liking. The banana pudding was good but way too sweet for me (my friends enjoyed them though) Overall the food was delicious and it was a great experience!"
