Primal Food & Spirits - Durham

Our family met in primal to enjoy brunch together. I have our reservation for 10 of us 6 adults and 4 children (3 small). I asked the private room, if available, for the little one. we were often in primal and have often been in the private room, so I thought the question was good. when we arrived, there was a table for 10 of us, but not in the private room, and not for 3 small children, as desired. Nobody used the private room. the manager came out and told us that the separate it area now has a minimum of $200. we were not informed before the time, and we were not sure what we would spend, so we simply took the table that they set up for us. the manager also told us that the sum of $200 does not contain the top. that was interesting because the tipp is included with a party of 6 people or more. our reservation was at 11:00 o'clock. we asked if we could order food for the little ones immediately, and they were very compatible with it. the child food came to the table at 12:05.... about an hour later. our food came to the table at 12:15 o'clock, and half of us had cold food. I felt bad for our waitress. she did the best she could with an extremely slow kitchen. since eating was so late, a few muffins would have been nice to keep the children. at one point we looked around and no table at the restaurant had to eat. they can see the kitchen, and the chefs had absolutely zero sense for drenchness. I am glad that the working atmosphere is relaxed, but with eating come over an hour later than the order, I would think they would step it a bit. the sanitation class was 94, that is the minimum I will go. my daughter in the law got kartoffeln with her order and got about a third of what they usually serve. I am disappointed because our family has always enjoyed brunch there, but we will not return.

Did not realize it was a totally GF facility. Made ordering so easy!

First time going to this restaurant we did the lunch for Triangle restaurant week and had a 1:30pm lunch reservation so place only had 2 other tables with patrons. They were out of chicken even though it was part of the special menu, and waitress suggested a grilled fish alternative. My husband's fried green tomato sandwich came out wrong and had to be redone, but he didn't get it until after my daughter and I already finished our entrees. My daughter's pork tacos were excellent and the desserts were very good. Service was not up to par, and the restaurant was cold and lacking in atmosphere.

Dessert was over cooked dry cake everything else was delicious with generous lunch portions

It was good, but not great. Went for Triangle Restaurant Week and not many folks there. Some of the other places we went were much better.
