 #### Angus Barn - Raleigh, North Carolina
 I was recommended this restaurant on the pretense that it was a restaurant. What I got instead was a highly exclusive social club which caused me to rescale my entire review system, as several 9s and 10s I gave out meant nothing in the face of this venue. First of all, upon entering you enter a foyer of sorts where you wait to be seated, featuring a full service bar and a waiter who hands out free cheese and crackers. As I am not a rich man, I did not have the money to waste on alcohol prior to the meal so I just enjoyed the cheese and crackers. When we were finally seated, on the way to the table we passed by a humidor which I thought was just a decoration. It turns out after the meal there is a whole outdoor area and indoor area dedicated to smoking cigars in the ultimate comfort. I ordered the beef ribs with stuffed potatoes, while my wife ordered prime rib with mashed potatoes. I got a heavenly French onion soup with my meal, while my wife got a massive salad with hers. While we were waiting, we were served more cheese and crackers which was very welcome indeed as we were both starving. When our food arrived, I was a little shocked (in a good way) at the amount of food we were given. Indeed, my beef ribs lasted about 3 subsequent meals for reference. I had some brew from Asheville, NC with my meal while my wife had a $12 glass of wine that tasted exactly like a mocktail (which is a good thing, especially since we are conditioned to the absolute worst of the worst $5 wine). All in all, our bill came out to around $145 including tip. However, the meal was just the beginning. Our waiter offered us a tour of the place, and our minds were blown. First off, most of the waiters there are trained sommeliers and the restaurant actually has a school inside it where their waiters can get their sommelier certifications. Next, the head chef (who unfortunately doesn't work there much anymore) won Iron Chef America back in 2006. In some competition (I forgot which exactly), this restaurant's wine cellar actually ranked in the top 10 of the world for best wine cellar. The waiter's tour took us through the wine cellar, and we saw some very expensive bottles of wine ranging in the $10000-$20000 range. Along the way, the waiter regaled us with a tale of a man who paid $120 for a shot of a whiskey dating back to the 1800s a while back. We explored the aforementioned smoking rooms and ventured downstairs into the private dining rooms for events, which come with their own full service bars and waiters. We concluded our tour with a visit to the Wild Turkey lounge, featuring a large collection of clay turkeys. We left full, content, and with the knowledge that we could not afford to go there again any time soon. 10/10

 My husband and I usually go here after an especially tough shift at the hospital. The food is perfect for the pick me up you need after a long day at work. I love to get the California burrito deep fried in cheese sauce  and my husband usually gets 3 tacos-the taco of the month and two diablo tacos. We also usually order drinks. Their manganado margarita is amazing and my husband enjoys their beer selection. We usually spend around $50 for our entire spread. The atmosphere is your standard Mexican restaurant but if it aint broke don't fix it! All in all I would recommend this to anyone looking to get a good dinner on the cheap side in the triangle area! I even took my parents here on a recent visit from them. As a side note, anywhere with their own parking is pretty great too. 10/10
 
 #### CowFish - Raleigh, North Carolina
 This year I had to work the day before, the day of, and the day after Valentines day at the hospital so my husband and I decided to try this restaurant out the Friday before. We had been recommended this place as a good place for a date night. In order to join the waitlist they ask that you download their app and join the waitlist. It provided an approximate time for when your table will be ready. (This is a helpful feature as they can have upwards of a two hour wait time.) We were seated almost immediately when we got there. Our table was right by their large fish tank which was both a blessing and a curse. There were kids surrounding it throughout our meal which while cute to watch their enthusiasm about fish also made it hard to have a deep conversation. I ordered and espresso martini and burger and my husband ordered their featured bento box and the itty bitty teensy weeny martini. Our food was your standard American meets Japanese fare. We also got a lot of food for our money. Overall we spent around $150 for drinks and our meal. One nice thing the waitress did was bring us out a free dessert that was very very good. This is a family friendly good for celebrating an event restaurant. My one complaint is the lack of parking surrounding the restaurant. I have noticed in the city it can be hard to park close and you need to factor that in to when you arrive at the restaurant. I cannot wait for my brother to be in town so that we can take an entire party there for my husband's next birthday. 9/10

+Happy birthday to me! My husband took me out here for my birthday per a recommendation from some acquaintances at church. After spending the entire day shopping we headed here for dinner. Luckily my birthday was on a Sunday this year so there wasn't't too long of a wait; just long enough to walk around the nearby Target. Once we were seated we were directed to create an account and upload our credit card information and start ordering. You ordered one thing at a time through this account and then when you were done you closed it out and paid through your phone. Our food was brought to the table by different members of the staff each for each item we ordered. The restaurant also told us they pride themselves on paying their staff a livable wage for Raleigh. (Side note that livable wages will look different based on your location. Now to rant about the negatives of my experience. There is no physical menu, and they do not accept cash. I think it is an unfair assumption that all patrons will both have access to a smart phone and understand how to order/pay.  Not mention they then add on a tip your server with the minimum being 20% when you did not even have a server in the first place. (Livable wage???) The food was alright and the drinks were okay. They mainly serve street tacos so they were on the small side. Order more if you have growing boys in your party. The atmosphere was instragrammable with hanging baskets around the light features and warm lighting, but overall it left much to be desired. Not to mention the lack of parking meant walking quite a way to even get to the door. I will not be returning to this restaurant any time 
+soon. 3/10

+#### Trophy Brewery - Raleigh, North Carolina
+Apparently millennials have a thing for microbreweries and as a zillenial I feel it is important to keep this alive. Trophy is the best place to go and drink a beer and play a game if you go to their tap room or eat a pizza if you are at their restaurant. The beer is much better out of the tap than a can with my personal favorite being the Milky Way. While at their brewery I love to play games with my husband or my brother when he is in town. It is the perfect vibe to chill out and rewind after a long day with the low lighting and swanky music. You cannot go wrong with any of their pizza choices and they have something for every diet. This is a 10/10 place that everyone should visit when in Raleigh.
