This place is AMAZING! All around best place to eat downtown. The service is top notch - we love Salliereid and Jib. The food although a little pricey is of great quality and especially delicious. The place is such a vibe - it’s a brewery, restaurant and also has books, coffee/ tea. Lots of gluten free options and the staff is super understanding and helpful in that area. Definitely try this place out.

Such a cool spot in downtown Raleigh! The vibe here is amazing- stylish, cozy, and full of character with the mix of brewery, flower shop, and dim sum restaurant all in one. The food is always on point — love the pork buns, dumplings, and moon cake dim sum. Their Matcha San cocktail is my favorite smooth, creamy, and not too sweet. The staff is always friendly, and it’s just a fun place to hang out. Definitely one of my favorite spots downtown!

Great experience! Let me tell you why... I walked in to get my wife and I on the list for a table at around 3 or 4pm. The kind person at the host station informed me that the wait for a table was HOURS (I believe the time was 915pm) but they have a full-service bar, meaning we could get food and drinks there, as long as there were seats available. My wife and I got a few seats at the bar, were greeted immediately, and had samples in our hands almost as quickly. We opted to take advantage of the Dim Sum section of the menu. We got the Pork & Chive Shumai (1st pic), Duck Egg Rolls, Chicken Curry Bao & Jiaozi Chicken Dumpling (not pictured). The shumai was amazing without the house dumpling sauce and still really good with it. The egg rolls came with a house dipping sauce (not be confused wit

Bar drinks and bar staff are excellent. We were seated in the dining room which is decorated simply. We ordered the chicken dumplings, very flavorful and the pickled cucumber salad. We felt the cucumber pieces were cut too large because there just was not any flavor, disappointed. I ordered the General Tso's chicken and my husband ordered the Szechuan fish. My chicken was nice and crispy but was a little tough and mainly tasted like Texas Pete. The fish was overcooked but overall had good flavor.

Brewery, dim sum, bookstore AND a flower shop? You got it here all in one! Really great beers and the ambiance is so unique and special too. Really enjoyed the multifaceted nature of this place that makes it a bit quirky but works! I really enjoyed the Glean beer with its mango peppercorn accents that is a great at wetting your appetite before food. For the dim sum, my favorites was the Ginger Salad and Crab Fried Rice. Everything was delicious though and great to share with a small group. Service was nice and attentive too!
