Restaurants near Durham Academy

Great place to eat before a show at DPAC. The food is good, but table service always feels a little rushed (most likely because most folks are trying to get to the show. We ate here last night and advised our waiter we were in no rush and asked to put our apps in first and wait for our dinner order. The waiter insisted that we put the app and dinner order in together that way it would be timed out correctly. As we were eating the apps, the expo person kept looking over at our table waiting to bring the dinner. They came and cleared the app plates and brought our dinner at the same time. Will also note there were plenty of open tables, so we were not holding up anyone from getting a seat.

Lovely experience dining outside. Inside always seems quite loud- so I’ve always opted for outdoors. Food was exceptional. Especially broiled oysters. Very personable wait staff. My second time here and I’ll be back for sure.

This was our 2nd night in a row to dine at Juju's, we were greeted again promptly by the same Hostess from the first night ( hate I didn't get her name again) but this time she greeted me by using my name which was a very important notice for me. Our server tonight was Brea and once again she was fantastic. I asked her about several drinks and dishes which she made great recommendations. Overall experience again great and I look forward to trying yet other dishes.

This was our second time to Little Bull as we celebrated our 22nd anniversary. Davon, our waiter, was super attentive and friendly! Drinks were off the charts delicious. We had DIY hand roll, Ceviche, and octopus. The octopus was much better the first time we dined at LB. Other small plates were delicious! We split the seasonal scallops and shrimp dish with grits. This plate was out of this world good! The grits were the best I have had! This little spot has become one of our all time favorite places to dine!

The food was amazing ! New favorite Italian restaurant in Durham, I look forward to returning
