Restaurants near Pope Park

Wife and I dined for lunch on Sunday, 12/22/24. Both of us had grilled salmon with Brussel sprouts and collard greens along with a side salad. Salads were very fresh, crisp cherry tomatoes, variety of green lettuce and spinach, very clean, crunchy and no brown or undesirable parts. Booth table was very comfortable without jackets on cold day, high of 40 degrees today. This is one of the nicest restaurants (upscale) with great food in the Cary area. We will be eating here again.

It can be difficult to find a place to dine at a relaxed pace and with a noise level that allows for conversation. Ashten's hits the mark perfectly! Every bite was delicious and we never felt rushed. Fabulous evening!

Food was hot and delicious as usual. Service was quick and pleasant. The coconut Martini was the best!!! This place never upsets!

Great food and our server was literally the best!

Usually, if we show up out of the blue at dinner time, there is an hour + wait. We chose to use open table so we could ensure we get seated at a reasonable time and sure enough, Red Lobster was pretty much dead when we arrived. Go figure. I'll continue to use this app though. Hopefully it'll help us on future busy nights.
