Best Lunch Restaurants in Durham

Perfect food. Cocktails were better than normal. First time trying the lasagna, so filling and perfect texture.

Outstanding meal. Gnocchi was light and pillowy. The two bruschetta we had were delicious as well. The one with the fig and the other with the shrimp were a nice pairing to allow our palates to alternate between the sweet and fresh. Highly recommend!

We had a business outing with six co-workers at Counting House. Trinity was very attentive to our needs and also allowed some substitutions for a guest who had dietary restrictions. The manager also stopped by to check on us. Food was delicious. Ambience was very nice. We had a great time.

First, this is one of our fav restaurants. Had the scallops which was a new item/recipe. Overwhelming spices. Indian (which I love) but the scallops were doused in garam masala and other sweet spices to a gut wrenching level. Had to leave the last one. The squash puree was over spiced and on and on. Half the spice level and this could have been a wonderful dish.

This cafe is a great little find at the Nasher. Been here a handful of times for lunch. It’s always busy, well executed inventive menu. Had the Vanilla matcha tea with Oat milk- very good. Panini with turkey,cucumbers, carmélized onions and quinoa salad was a great choice. My friend had the goat cheese BLT minus the tomato along with an aioli sauce; basil pesto pasta salad. She said it was very good. I would definitely return for an evening meal with wine. The museum cafe is worthwhile to visit. Even on a weekend while visiting.
