We used to go here frequently, maybe 12 years ago.Since then lots of new competition surrounds them.We recently stopped by twice for dessert and have been impressed.Years ago my #1 reason to not go was the noise.There was an awful echo in the restaurant.I am happy to see they fixed that by adding …

EDIT/DISCLAIMER: My original review below was from a dining experience I had around 6 months ago. After posting the review, I received communication from Manager Josh Michael informing me that some of the information, such as multiple size options for some dishes, is out of date, and that other …

Our great experience began with complimentary valet which is great for not having to worry about finding parking in downtown Raleigh. We had reservations for 8pm and the best little private table waiting on us! It was perfectly nestled to the side of the first landing of the stairs with a view of the lower area. All …

Aptly named after the street it stands on, 518 West makes no bones of the hype that surrounds the establishment. As if by cue, the dishes seem exorbitantly priced and reservations may take a while. But the Shrimp con Aglio and Carpaccio, not forgetting the extensive wine list and sorbets and house-made crepes, should change any negative notion. The music can be a tad loud at times, but the...
