    From appetizers to desserts everything is exquisite. Highly recommended. The service is superior, nice atmosphere, and confortable. If you have not visited yet, take a chance, you will love it!

    Everything I've ordered off the menu has been fantastic. The bread and water are always full. My favorite tidbit here is between the staff, especially at the bar and the wine list

    It's good. Take your parents to this place if they are in town. I've never been floored by Nana's but the people i've gone with enjoyed it.

    Great food, ask for Petr, "Peter". Hardest worker server in Durham. Risotto, Lamb Oso Bucu, Apple Crostada. They did box up one dish I did not finish, however, it never resurfaced.

    Best risotto regardless of the flavor of the day. Great service, unusual and flavorful food concoctions and elegant but casual atmosphere. Named one of Durham's finest and rightly so.

    Domaine des Coteaux des Travers from Rasteau is available by the glass and is a delicious option for those looking for a rich red.

    I had the mushroom soup, roasted chicken and creme brulee. It was good, but not any different than other similar meals.

    Very good food and lovely service! Try the rabbit, which balances savory and sweet.

    Best restaurant in the area. Hands down. Sit in the bar area and let Graham and Brad do their thing. They are the best bartenders by far!
