The Sycamore At Chatham Mills

4 of us here for Saturday evening dining. Thought it would be nice to get away from Durham for a change. The food is good as was the feel of the place. The service does not come close to matching their very high prices. Too many choices in the Durham/Chapel Hill area so will not be back here.Dietary restrictions: I have celiac and am allergic to gluten. Server had no idea which dishes were appropriate for me.

Incredible!!! My Crispy Bass might have been the best plate I’ve ever had! My girls steak was outstanding. This place makes Fleming’s in Greensboro look like a McDonald’s. Pricey but worth

The chef/kitchen makes the restaurant! I never have encountered a restaurant with the level of service offered from the back of the house like this restaurant. On Wednesday nights the live jazz really makes this place one of the best in the area. Surely “worth the drive” The service from the front of the house is great also.I would recommend this place to anyone I know. It’s worth every dollar you’ll spend here and they seem to appreciate your business!I will be back time and time again.

I've been in Sycamore now 3 times. Last night for their Valentines special was the latest. Knowing that you're going to walk in the door and spend $135+ per person and they don't even have the bar open to be able to sit and order a drink before dinner is ridiculous. Same thing happened last time I just stopped in to have a drink at their bar, it was closed. Why have a nice upscale bar if it's never open? I would think if everyone there is spending $135+ per person that they could afford to have an additional bar tender there and have the bar open. The food is good but overpriced. It's nice to have an upper scale restaurant in Pittsboro but I will say that after 3 visits I will not be going back. Just not worth it when there's others close enough with much lower pricing that are just as good and you don't have to worry about parts of the restaurant being closed when you walk in. Very disappointing to say the least.

Fine dining in an unsuspecting location. Amazing experience from the warm welcome at the door, all the way through to dessert. I started with the mixed greens salad that has a lot going on in the flavor department, but everything pairs together so well. The apple cider and honey vinaigrette is subtle, not over powering. And the small pieces of apple add a nice sweet and sour surprise, along with the crunch of the candied walnuts. (I had their beef tatare before, too, and it is jam packed with flavor! And it comes with some really nice, buttery, soft toast. Their charcuterie board is noteworthy too. A great variety of cheeses, fruits, and meats) If you 've never had ostrich, and you like steak, I cannot recommend it enough. There 's no gamey flavor at at. Just fire cooked steak, and whatever glaze/sauce that comes with it goes so well with every bite. (I also had their 30 day dry aged ribeye before this, which is exceptional) I don 't know what the chef does to the mashed potatoes, but they are incredible. There is a subtle sweetness, and almost a smokey kind of flavor to them. No salt or pepper necessary, and SO creamy! For dessert I had the olive oil cake, which they switch up the style all the time. This one had blood orange slices and reduction, with house made whip cream, and the cilantro paired so incredibly well. Not what I expected at all! The service is great, and they have a piano player in the main dining area, which is cool, and also a pool table in the lounge. I HIGHLY recommend giving this hidden gem a try if you 're ever in the area.
