Stanbury

Food is amazing every time! The ribeye is better than all steak houses. The small plates are created with care and an explosion of flavor. I love going here and will go again and again! Since the place is relatively small, do not go here unless you want experience an amazing variety of foods. Save that table for me!

I don’t even know where to start.. this is hands down the best restaurant you will find in Raleigh. The menu is eclectic and adventurous, but ties in familiarity so you’re open to trying new things. The menu changes from week to week, usually leaving some staple menu items - like their bread and butter.. sounds simple.. but trust me, it’s worth every bite. I have eaten here numerous times and each time it gets better, which is hard to even say because it is always good. This is a perfect place to order a bunch of shared plates and try the whole menu. Their large plates are also really good. *Something to note- they don’t take reservations, so give yourself some time. They do however have a small outside where you can order drinks and small plates before they seat you.

The food was outstanding. Loved the open kitchen. Great selection of beverages, including a delightful mulled cider. The crudo was phenomenal. The only downside was it's popularity - the wait was fairly long, but at least you can warm up next to a fire and enjoy a bottle of wine.

We thankfully arrived close to when Stanbury opened and were seated within 10 minutes. The space has expanded since I last visited and I appreciated the spacing between tables. We ordered 5 small plates and they were all tasty. The beef tartare was amusing, and was even more enjoyable after inquiring about it. It was a little too much 1000 island dressing, but the fried shoe string potatoes were excellent. The lamb was fall apart delicious with the pierogi. The bone marrow was as good as I remembered, but the bread had some burnt bitter bites. The sweet breads were well fried and the risotto was creamy. The beat chips and pickled apples were an interesting bite to the tuna. Overall, an excellent meal.
