- AAndyvipWest Palm Beach •64 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoEnjoy a night out with family. Wanted the mussels but daughter has nuts allergies so that was a no. So we went right for the mains. The salmon with curry was out of this world. So delicious. Others had the burger and fries and were not disappointed. It is not an inexpensive meal but the quality is worth it. My only negative is that basic beer and wine choices seem a bit expensive. But they do offer drink specials on different nights. For me, both the food and service were stellar so we will definitely be back.More infoTandemPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Carrboro•4.7
- RRichardvipRaleigh / Durham / Chapel Hill •26 reviews4.0Dined 2 days agoA perfect choice for our 41st Anniversary lunch! Excellent and creative Asian fusion meals, with a focus on seafood for many choices, very pleasant people, attentive service and a thoughtful wine list with a well-chilled Sancerre (which has unfortunately become something of a cliche choice but remains a perfect wine for seafood). The addition of lunch seating perfectly suits our schedules and has never failed to please!More infoElementsPrice: Expensive• Fusion / Eclectic• Chapel Hill•4.8

- JJoevipRaleigh / Durham / Chapel Hill •4 reviews5.0Dined on 19 Nov 2024Always a good meal and dining experience. The staff greets you upon arrival and appreciates patrons. I enjoy sitting on the patio this time of year. Easy for conversations and a relaxed vibe. The food arrives quickly and the tastes/flavors are great and consistent each time. A great selection of cocktails (some with a new twist, great mixology). Jujube is a little gem tucked away on Raleigh Road. Thank you for another great dining experience.More infoJujubePrice: Expensive• Contemporary Asian• Chapel Hill•4.7
