Rye Bar and Southern Kitchen - Raleigh

Eating was moderate. cocktails were very expensive $13.) service was good. noise level was very high for a very young girl on a table were in raleigh for dance competition, and had a great time while we made a lot of noise we didn't do anything at all!

My rating doesn't give a fluff! the entire experience was with excellent, eating out (4 people in our party and we all ordered something else) to the drinks on the ambiente and the noise level. our service was also excellent, patient with our asking, and fast and seemingly honest with their recommendations. I'm looking forward to the return. P.S. it can be expensive, but then 1) we ordered drinks and 2) it is a restaurant in a large hotel in the city. increased costs should be expected.

Rye bar southern kitchen never disappoints us. our server was very attentive and the eating options were excellent. our lobster shepherd’s pie was absolutely delicious. great place to share a meal with friends before symphony.

Was looking forward to this restaurant. However, it wasn't as good as I had anticipated. Wait staff was nice, food was just OK. Husband had the gumbo, but it was a very small serving. I had the meatloaf which was OK....but the entire meal was lukewarm. I hesitated about sending it back. The chicken wings, however, were very good.

Honestly some of the worst food I’ve had at an upperclass hotel. The scalloped potatoes and macncheese both tasted like lukewarm Velveeta had been poured over it, and the bland meatloaf was only marginally helped by a bottled bbq sauce. We would not eat there again.
