About this business

A dynamic menu that changes on a daily basis along with a fascinating menu of cocktails awaits you at Chef & the Farmer.

Loved most everything about the experience...from the food to wait staff. A female bartender glaringly stood out after repeatedly ignoring us and helping 2 other people who came well after us... a little frustrating! The fried collards were terribly greasy and basically tasted like ...grease! The pork was absolutely one of the best things I've ever put in my mouth!! Followed closely by the fish infused with and Asian flavor. Some of the best food I've had the pleasure of eating!!

We just had the most incredible experience with you tonight! The service, food and drinks were unreal. The fig ice cream and the peach dessert were both amazing! Our server, Chelsea, was so warm and welcoming and Joey in the wine shop was the best! He took the time to get to get to know us and give us some recommendations while visiting North Carolina. We can't wait to come back, thanks for having us!

My wife has been a fan of Vivian's show since it started and has always wanted to dine at the restaurant. Well, we finally got the opportunity and loved it. Beautiful restaurant with wonderful staff. The food is fantastic and dessert was delightful. Would definitely come back during our next visit to North Carolina. 

Business response:

This is wonderful to see, Hernan! Thank you and we look forward to your next visit.

After having a heart attack in February of this year, I vowed to do away with stress (things like the news and politics). While recovering, my wife and I watched every season of A Chef's Life on PBS on Demand. For some reason, it was very calming. Spending time with Vivian and all of the other people, hearing their conversations and stories, was very relaxing and helped me heal during the biggest health crisis of my life. Before we left for vacation in September, I bought my wife a copy of Vivian's book and we drove from Nor... read more
