    First time at M8 after living in D for 15 years. It was a terrific meal. meat and deserts were outstanding. apps and sides were good, nothing too remarkable there. Hands down one of the best service experiences I've had at a restaurant in durham ever. seriously. staff was attentive, knowledgable, familiar with menu and recs. would recommend and will return.

    We did a wine pairing dinner at Ruth's and we really happy about the whole deal. If you go to Ruth's, you know you will get an excellent steak. But the other four courses were also outstanding and showed real creativity.
