Rey's Restaurant

This was my second time at Rey’s. I hosted my bday dinner there with approx 20 people & everyone loved it but bc of such a large party we had a set menu. I decided to have our date night there on Friday, March 6th so I can experience the other food and it didn’t disappoint at all. Our waitress Nora set the tone for the night with her bubbly personality & kept us laughing the entire time. She truly was lovely! Nora recommended the catch of the day and that blackened sea bass was pure perfection. I’m actually still thinking about how delightful it was. Truly everything we ate was so delicious but baby those au gratin potatoes hands down the best I ever tasted! Everything was chef kiss! Thanks for a great date night! Big shout out to Nora…the world needs more of her beautiful spirit!

This is a solid 3.5 star restaurant. So I rounded up… Service? 5 stars. Always. Atmosphere is a little plain but it’s still a dressy, nice vibe. But after my third visit, I have to comment on the food. I dined here on Valentine’s Day and was excited to come with someone who had never been before. I was so disappointed to see Valentine’s Day had a relatively skimmed down menu and two of my favorite side dishes that I was looking forward to were not available. No mashed sweet potatoes?? What?! What made up for that was thankfully still having my favorite appetizer - the calamari, which comes on top of a richly seasoned corn and Lima bean succotash-type mix. My boyfriend ordered the pork chop and it was very, very, undercooked. We enjoy medium rare in steaks but the pork was almost cold. We

Best Valentines Day we’ve ever had. We got the calamari for appetizer and it was easily the best I’ve had. The drinks were amazing, and our waiter Dana gave us the best customer service we’ve ever had. Our main entrees were so good I forgot to take a picture of them, I got the lamb and my wife got the filet. We will definitely be coming back

This is fine dining! If you're debating between the ones that start with V or RH skip them both and come here. From the service to the food this is truly the triangle's best kept secret. Everyone, including the manager was warm and welcoming from the door. The food was so well seasoned and cooked perfectly. The menu is a la carte so you have freedom of choice. The sides are meant to be shared and come in healthy portion sizes. The waiters were charming and kept the meal well paced. Highly recommend the surf & turf. Can’t wait to return!

We planned a visit here after an influencer recommended this place to have the best steak in Raleigh. To start the bread and wedge salad were delicious. My wife and I both ordered a bone in ribeye with a lobster tail. Where we messed up was listening to the recommendation of getting the lobster tail that’s cut up, seasoned, and put back in the shell. It was plated with the steak and when I tell you it was the most over powering garlic I’ve ever had, it sadly ruined my steak also. I had to scrap my plate twice to get the garlic off. The steak was super tender and juicy and cooked perfect but all I could taste was the sauce from the lobster. We didn’t complain but the server noticed we’d removed our lobster from our steak plate and we explained why. She insisted they get us a regular lobster
