    Excellent dinner at Tandem. The menu was expansive (and vegetarian/vegan friendly); the portions were good for the price; the service was quick and friendly; the ambience was great. All around good experience.

    Extremely noisy lunchtime crowd. Every table full. Quite an attentive waiter. Ordered hot root vegetable soup and sandwich. Soup was tasty, but served lukewarm warm. Cheese sandwich was also tasty, but the thick sliced brioche bread overwhelmed the cheese.

    The service was impeccable from the moment we walked in the door. The menu was extensive, particularly the choices for appetizers and small plates. We had four appetizers and dessert. The salmon and lamb we had were perfectly prepared and served. The cheesecake was divine. All in all, a perfect evening.

    The food here is always reliably good and was on my visit. Beet and Brussels salad with goat cheese was delicious. The salmon I ordered with it (add protein) was good but it was not served as a cohesive dish. I expected it to be served on top of the salad vs on a separate plate and with more seasoning. Service was attentive. I’ll. Be back.

    My brisket sandwich was horrible. 2 thin tough slices of meat in a mountain of bread dripping in mayo. The potato salad had suo much Mayo that a pool formed around it. Nice ambience and decent service.

    We love Tandem--today the fries were spectacular. There's a reason Carrboro loves this place--the food, the service, and the ambiance are all top notch!
