Good for special occasions
Neighbourhood gem
Charming

Neighborhood French-inspired bistro featuring an ever-changing French-Fusion menu that keeps you coming back to try the things you didn’t have room for.
Marianne’s organic garden helps supply Warren’s kitchen with his beloved fresh produce & both are actively involved in the local food movement.
The ambiance is fusion as well - bistro style rather than “fine dining” - that is at once classic French and comfortable with an open kitchen so foodies can watch the work in progress. Art work is a mix of Mucha prints and Warren’s photography. Music is quirky.
Nightly wine by the glass specials, carefully curated wine list and a delightful cocktail menu round out drinks offerings.
Neither high chairs nor booster seats are available.
Reservations are for a two hour time period.
Classic Parisian style sidewalk seating available.
Warren and his wife Marianne have spent the last twenty-five years delighting diners with their worldly cuisine & genuine hospitality.

The menu is refreshed regularily. I visit southern pines several times a year for golfing in the area. Chef Warren’s is always on my calendar for a meal. Seasonal sensitivities and local sourced ingredients assembled cleverly make for an exception dinner experience.

Chef Warren's is always a delight! It’s one of the few places in Southern Pines where you truly get your money’s worth. Every dish was outstanding, and everyone at our table absolutely loved their meal. The flavors, presentation, and service were top-notch. And whatever you do—don’t skip dessert! Every bite was pure indulgence. Can’t wait for our next visit

This was our second visit and it was as excellent as we remembered! The pork schnitzel is amazing. Everything we’ve had there has been outstanding. We also love the ambiance. It feels special without being pretentious. We’ll be back the next time we visit So Pines.

One of our favorite spots for date night. We were celebrating my husbands birthday and they had confetti waiting for us at the table. Our server was attentive and knowledgeable. When going over the features she let us know there were not many left and she would hold something if we wanted it. Word to the wise...don't sleep on the mushroom toast. It was spectacular and I don't even like mushrooms! The entire staff makes you feel comfortable and right at home while providing high end service! Wish we could go everyday!
