Excellent food! – Nana's is one of the best places in the Triangle to enjoy diner. While I have dined many times at Nana's, I have never met the owner, Scott Howell. His food however, is absolutley incredible. I would highly recommend Nana's to anyone.
Excellent food and exceptional service – I took my wife to Nanas for he birthday and had a wonderful experience. We were seated promptly at a nice corner table. The service was exceptional - not too intrusive, but always there at the right moment to fill up our water or provide more bread or ask us about our next course. The waitress' recommendations were spot-on, the food excellently prepared and rich in taste. We had smoked duck for appetizer and the braised pork and monk fish for the main entree. The only shortcoming was ... read more
Wonderful – The sampler menu was excellent, and the wine they recommended well paired. While the wild boar was a bit dry, the venison was spectacular, and the sampler was a good way to try dishes that might not otherwise command your attention in terms of ordering for a full entree.
A Delight – Excellent restaurant for a special occasion. Gourmet delight. Every course of the meal was superb. I look forward to going back.
A disappointing experience – After hearing all of the praise for this restaurant my wife and I found the experience to be very underwhelming. The service was good; however little else lived up to the praise this place has received. The entrees were average at best with small portions especially given the high prices for each. Deserts were nothing special. Ambience and setting were ok, but we were seated in a corner no farther than 3 feet away from a four-person party whose loud conversation made it very hard for us to carry ... read more
don't worry, it's not like your Nana! – It's tough to find anything negative to say about Nana's. You wouldn't know it from the outside, but it's quite the classy, trendy place! I particularly like the diverse selection of real artwork displayed throughout the restaurant. The bar area is also quite nice and trendy. I've only been to Nana's once, but I'm looking forward to returning. The service was absolutely superb and the food was top-notch. I loved the salmon! I haven't been back only because I wanted to try some of the o... read more
Great Food. – I took my husband there for his birthday. We ordered this sample menu, which comes in 5 different courses and the dessert. Although they are very different, all of them are very tasty. We are very pleased.
Delicious and Diverse – This restaurant is greatly improved, compared to my last visit there. The chef offers a wide array of creative cuisine. Unsual flavors come together very well. The "sampler" is strongly recommended, to experience a wide array of treats. A small downside is that some dishes were a little salty for my tastes.
Fabulous Food – Wow, this place surprised us. Its location, in a tiny shopping strip on University Boulevard, does not convey the dining experience. Great ambiance, fabulous food, delectable dessert and great, personal service. It's a bit pricey, so we can't go too often, but for that special occasion or to take your visiting in-laws, this is the place. Great artwork on display is for sale, too!
