Mother's Day Menus & Specials
We will offer our normal menu plus a "Select" mothers day feature menu.
Arrived at 4:55 for a 5pm reservation and was told I needed to wait at bar since they were not ready (the place was empty). At bar, ordered a drink, did not have the ingredients. I then asked for a Piña Colada, did not have the ingredients. Sat us at our table, waiter comes and goes over the main dishes, brings the menus and were given the wrong menu s, no big deal. Then we ordered a charcuterie board (flavors were bland, and a piece of cheese had mold) and a spinach dip. The waiter goes on with a spill regarding the spinach dip, basically saying that it was exclusive, but that he could get us one, we opted for fried oysters, that was just weird. It was 4 of us, therefore 4 main courses were ordered. Once we got the food, my husband's steak was medium, which we specifically said that it needed to be cooked well done, he cannot stand to see pink on meat. Also, the steak had NO flavor whatsoever. I ordered shrimp and grits, which was terrible! My niece ordered scallops, no flavor either!!! My daughter was the only one content, why? Because she ordered a BURGER. We ended paying $230 for a nasty meal! NEVER AGAIN!
Midtown Grille is my family's favorite local restaurant! It's comfortable, welcoming and consistently great.
Waitress was wonderful, ambiance is very pretty and food was excellent
Beautiful Sunday lunch, nice day, sat outside. Great service, great food. Was a wonderful experience.
Wonderful experience. Our server was amazing and the food was delicious!
Outstanding !
Service was excellent.
The food greatly exceeded expectations---one of the best meals we've had in a long time.
We highly recommend this restaurant for fun times and very good food.
Food and service was really good
Great food! Nice atmosphere and great service. Limited selection but what they have is good.
Hands-down one of the best restaurants in Raleigh!
We came away with mixed feelings: while the food was very good, the service was not up to par. We asked our waiter if they have the large ice cubes & the answer was yes, so manhattans were ordered w/large ice. My husband asked if they had blue cheese olives for his martini: yes again. Never was an up charge mentioned, but when the bill came each ice-cube was a $3.00 up-charge, each olive (small) were $1.00 each. The olives & ice cost $18.00. Rather crazy: Capital Grille doesn’t charge for either. Our server also forgot to order our side of brussel sprouts & asparagus sides, after specifically asking if both should come out with main entrees. Weird.
Ma'am, if there is an issue please let someone at the restaurant know so it can be fixed during the visit. Your husband had Buffalo Trace $11 and a $3 up charge for a Manhattan. A 2oz pour, not a 1.25 oz pour. Its called a Rocks pour. The Titos on the Rocks were $9 + $3 for the rocks (+.75oz.) and Blue Cheese olives are $1.50 each. Buffalo Trace Manhattan $14, Titos Rocks with BC Olive $13.50. Yes, your server missed the sides and made a mistake. Sorry for the mishap.
Service was truly excellent.
Fabulous food and wine selection as always. Outside chairs are too low. Other than that, we loved it!
Food was OK not great. Would recommend more attention to detail on items. Server was great as were deserts.
Great!!! Lots of Gluten-free options.
Very nice place to have dinner. Great service and food.
The food was delicious and our waiter was very attentive!
First visit and would definitely return
They were polite from the minute we walked into the Grille
Ambiance is low key very friendly
And great food for a great price.
I had the spinach and cheese flatbread, and it was delicious! On Thursday evenings there are $7 margaritas which were also good. The waitress (Amber) was attentive and friendly. There was also music on the patio that evening. It was the season opener featuring guitarist Ed Stephenson. Great food and wonderful music, so I highly recommend Midtown Grill.
Though the menu is limited, there is something for any appetite. The wine list is fantastic, and the few espressos I’ve had at the bar during lunch are well-worth a trip. This is my North Hills go-to!
Our normally enjoyable experiences was ruined by a large loud, obnoxious party that took over the entire restaurant! Very rude group!
Cathy we totally agree. We have a hard rule on groups and are very cautious of taking groups of more than 6 outside of the private dining room. This group made a reservation for 6 and another reservation for 5 to bypass the rules. They then showed up with 18? We apologize for their lack of consideration! We are watching this very closely so it does not happen again.
The service was not good and the waiter spilled a glass of red wine in my lap and I was not offered an extra napkin, a compensated glass of wine, a dry cleaning service...nothing just a meek oh I’m sorry about that. Management should have stepped in and handled the situation. I don’t blame the waiter accidents happen but he had no training as to how to handle it. Very disappointed and now I have a new dress that is basically ruined.
Good afternoon. Unfortunately this is the first the management team is hearing of this. We are very sorry for your experience and would like to correct the situation. Please reach out to us so we can take corrective action.
Always good .. server CeCe was outstanding..I hope I get her next visit
Great dinner on the patio with work team!
Great Sunday Brunch!
Food was excellent & the service is always 5 star every time we eat there. Highly recommend! One of our favorite 'go to' restaurants in Raleigh.
Always consistently great place to eat!
Date nite with wifey again,
Midtown grill has been around for awhile, however we have never eaten here. To our surprise the food was extremely tasty & ample at a very affordable price.
We will be back,!!!
Big Thanks to all at The Midtown Grill staff

Really good, just a bit overpriced for the amount of food.
As always, the food and service was fabulous! Thanks for another wonderful meal!
Always a great place with great food and ambiance.
Patio dining on a nice night
The food was excellent and the waiter was extremely friendly and helpful.
Horrible service! The guy did not even bother to say hello/good morning upon arrival. He also tried to offend me by giving me zero vegetarian options and as I wanted eggs he said out loud that eggs are not vegetarian either. Well if you are vegetarian you normally do eat dairy products unless you are VEGAN. Make sure the manager gets informed. I ran out of energy when i had to deal with this fellow. He should not be working in the restaurant business, a complete disaster and lack of service mindness. I felt so mistreated without any reason at all. Do not know if I will come back and if I do i will for sure ask for a better service.
Hello AnnaW, Sorry for your experience with our server. He has a quirky / funny personality that probably did not present well with a mask on during Covid. Vegetarian options are always a challenge. We are rolling out our new Spring menu in the next two weeks and will have more available vegetarian options. Seasonal vegetables with Risotto etc. You feedback has made us make a few changes to our ala carte section on our brunch menu. Thank you for your patronage.
Will never go here again.... sent food back 3 times... manager never came to table even after Amber our waiter asked him to.... I will never go here again and will not recommend it to noone. We were from out of town so disappointed!!!!!! Amber was a good waiter but the kitchen and Manger was very unprofessional... and Manger passed by our table more than once and not once stopped by.
Hello shondap. We have been in business a long time and as evident by our ratings, we do a very good job. We are very sorry for your experience. However, you did not like the Spinach dip nor the mac and cheese apps. . You ordered three shrimp and grits, ALL ALTERED and the Salmon entree. You were unhappy with all. A flatbread with shrimp was also ordered. We discounted $92 off the check, the three dishes you chose to alter, the Salmon and the apps.
Wonderful choice for a birthday or celebration dinner. Good food selection, great service and cozy atmosphere
We will make this a regular. Food is always good and Bennett is the best!!
Great place to eat food and service above and beyond.
The food was very good and there service as well.
Service was great. We ate at their outdoor dining which was nice. Servers seem to come just at the right time and had great suggestions for food. Quick service.
Good experience at Midtown
Food options were good, the special that evening, Corvina, was excellent and well presented
The short ribs were outstanding fall apart and very flavourful
Good choice of wines by the glass
Friendly and attentive but not overbearing service made for a great evening experience
