My coworker and I purposely went this restaurant after seeing a ridiculous "bad" review that was critical of what the waitresses wear. The review was laughable, especially because every other review I had seen was pretty good. People, the waitresses wear black t-shirts and black leggings. The t-shirts are fitted (not skin tight) on some, looser on others. It's fine. It's not objectification, it's not even close to inappropriate. I also saw a new review complaining about being asked to leave after sitting for 2 hours. There is a big old sign at the hostess station asking patrons to limit their time to 90 minutes when it's busy. If you can read and have even a little bit of observation skills, you'll see it. Also - when you see a business is swamped, don't be rude to those waiting and move to the bar to continue your conversation - it's called common courtesy. Anyway - I had the Ahi Tuna Salad and it was very good. The staff was all very helpful and nice - even those floosies in their t-shirts ;). My coworker is a whiskey drinker and he enjoyed trying their infused whiskies. I have to be back in NC for work 3 more times and will eat here again.

I mean YUM! The food was so freaking good. I am not really into french fries and their fries are so perfect. Light crisp on the outside and soft inside. I got the black, Blue and bacon burger and it was so delicious. Service was excellent and I will definitely go back. Everyone with me enjoyed it just as much!

Waitress came promptly and I asked for a gin and tonic and a glass of water. I go off to the mens room and both are waiting for me when I come back to my table. The waitress comes back in a few minutes and asks me if I’m ready to order and I tell her that I know what I want but I don’t want to order yet because I don’t want food arriving before I finish my drink. After my drink, the waitress arrives and I order a side salad and something on the menu called ‘WTF Sir Fry’: clever name. Soon the salad arrives and I begin eating. Thirty seconds later my entree arrives: WFT! The stir fry was terrible. It tasted burnt and the veggies were over cooked. They should take WFT off the menu. I hate when places try to rush you out! Will not be back!Update to owner's response:It happened within a day of posting at about 2 or 3 in the afternoon. I asked the waitress to tell the manager that the food shouldn't come out like that. Obviously she did nothing. I also told the waitress that the stir fry was not good. I've done all I can. It's up to you now and I post this for potential customers.

I was humiliated last night by what I imagine was a manager. It was my first time at your restaurant, my son has eaten here a few times. We both liked the food and my son loved the flight of shots. We were having a nice evening when the manager, at least I assume he was the manager, came to the table, asked if he could buy us a coffee in a different locale as we have been there for two hours. We stood up, very surprised and he then tried to shove ten dollars at my son, and when he wouldn't take it, me. In front of other diners and my son, I felt humiliated! I do not think that is an appropriate thing for someone to do to a person who spent plenty on appetizer, drinks and dinner. I do see on your website that you want patrons to limit their time to 90 minutes during peak times, I didn't see the website until just now. We waited over 30 minutes for a table.

Enjoyed a dinner here on a Monday evening. It was obviously a popular choice as we waited for 35 minutes for a table for 3. You could tell the wait staff was busy, but they made sure to always check in on us. Calamari app was delicious and soooo tender. Caesar salad was good, but I would get extra dressing on the side if you like your Caesar salad as dressed as I like mine (to the tensss ??). Salmon was over cooked on my sandwich, but I was so full from everything else that I didn’t even bother to say anything. I am positive they would have taken care of it - so this is to no fault of their own. Aloha sandwich with fried chicken - fries extra crispy - oh my goodness. So delicious. Could’ve lived without the bacon on it, but that’s just me. Thoroughly enjoyed everything we had.Thanks for a delish meal!

This is hands down the best restaurant in wake forest. I go out to eat a lot with my boyfriend and this place takes the cake. It’s a bit pricey but it is all so worth it. The bbq chicken pizza is so good and the crab and blackened shrimp linguine has to be the best dish on the menu. There are so many options on the menu which is a plus and the staff is very friendly and attentive.

It’s extremely off putting to continually see the female staff wearing tight tshirts and pants. It’s not appealing. It’s objectification. It’s rude to patrons. Just stop already. The food should stand on its own without the gimmick and sexual innuendo.

Tina was our server- she was awesome!! Super friendly, accommodating , perfectly timed food and delicious food! Our drinks were cold and always filled! We had the red dragon cauliflower appetizer- amazing. We had steak, seafood pasta, ahi tuna, barbecue wings. The blue cheese dressing was homemade and one of the best flavors ever. If we were local to the area, we would probably be here weekly! I cannot say enough about Tina, Greg and the OTH team- they are awesome!!

Stopped in for a few cocktails while wandering the nice downtown Wake Forest area. Bartender made great suggestions with the many craft brews. Nice ambiance too.

What a great place! I have never had anything but great service and great food here! My wife and I love this restaurant because it is always staffed and the service you receive is amazing! Anything you order on the menu is always cooked to perfection!!!
