“ Great food and service. Staff is wonderful! Chef never disappoints. It's our favorite go-to spot in Wake Forest/Raleigh ”
“ Food was excellent, very fresh, wait staff were very pleasant, great experience, will come back again when I'm in Wake Forest ”
“ We stopped here while our kids were out of town. We had a salad, stuffed shrimp and the waitress recommended schnitzel and short ribs. The short ribs were just okay... needed more seasoning in my opinion but literally everything else was so delicious. We enjoyed the atmosphere. The staff were friendly and stopped by just enough times to make sure the food was good and to top off our drinks. The managers were constantly walking around and checking on each table as well. Everyone seemed happy and as if they enjoyed themselves while worked. ”
“ Farm Table is located in Gateway Commons Shopping Center. Parking can be tight near the restaurant but the shopping center has plenty of parking with great lighting not too far away. The restaurant is always packed so make sure to make reservations if you can. The menu changes based on the season so you have an excuse for multiple dining trips here. The menu has a good variety of items to appeal to everyone's taste buds. On my last visit I had a chopped salad and added the shrimp. The shrimp came out in a small pan and not on the salad so I added them myself. I liked how all the flavors went together. I am looking forward to my next visit. ”
“ Really enjoyed the Lavender Honey Thyme Bees cocktail, delicious short ribs with Parmesan risotto and heirloom carrots and delicious chocolate mousse cake for dessert. Definitely recommend & will definitely comeback! ”
“ My husband and I chose this restaurant because it was around the corner from our neighborhood. I read somewhere in a local Facebook group that someone recommended it for a good steak, without having to drive to Raleigh. While we didn't order the steak, the food did not disappoint. The ambience felt approachable, but do make reservations. Our waitress was friendly and kind. Our drinks were always full. I've heard good things about the chef here and we were really impressed with the fact that the drink and food menu changes. We left very happy knowing it will be our new date night spot. Our food choices: - Heirloom Caprese: very refreshing, perfect amount of salt - Grilled Pork Chop: OMG. So flavorful! I don't normally eat pork chops but this was so good - Grilled Baby Back Ribs with an added side of smashed potatoes: my husband is very picky with ribs and this non-vinegar based set of ribs were so juicy and fresh, falling off the bone. He literally gave me a high five. The smashed potatoes were INCREDIBLE. I made him share. The dish comes with sweet potato fingerlings, which was such a great pairing to the taste of the ribs ”
“ First time to Farm Table. Staff was very nice. The Almond Crusted Salmon was delicious! nteresting menu. Plenty of parking. A little pricey. ”
“ Farm table is a healthy fine dining option in wake forest. We had the short rib flat bread amazing. I had the short rib dinner, which I felt could have had more flavor, but overall good. Old fashioned drink was 7/10 really good. ”
“ This was one of those wow meals, from start to finish. They change their menu often to match what is in season and to utilize as much local as possible. We were drawn in by their current menu. Made reservations and had a delightful Saturday night experience. They have a nice variety of seating options. Tables, Booths, a good size bar. There's a patio room that's enclosed. All very nice. We were quite comfortable in our booth in the main dining room. Service was top-notch from the moment we were greeted with a smile, to our excellent Server and the friendly food runners. Drinks excellent. I enjoyed a nice pinot grigio with my meal, followed later by the world's most perfect dessert drink...a lemon pie martini. Yep. You heard that right. The stuff dreams are made of. Husband had a couple dirty martinis he was quite fond of. Food. YUM. We shared a steamed clam appetizer with an excellent spring onion cream-white wine sauce after they started us with a nice light foccacia with a very good olive oil. The only thing missing with the clams was grilled bread. It was crying out for it. Would have totally taken it over the top. Yes the foccacia was dippable but it didn't work as well as grilled sourdough would have matched with that dish. Entrees: Scallops with a beurre blanc sauce, veggie noodles and a tomato vinaigrette. The scallops could not have been seared and cooked better. They were scallop perfection. But I will say that the plating in a bowl rather than a plate watered down the beurre blanc to the point it might as well have not been there. The tomato on top with a tangy vinaigrette offered a nice acidity to the dish. Husband got the Pork Schnitzel with a pesto pasta and arugula. Very rich and he loved it. Both portions were generous enough that we both have leftovers. Especially love how well everything is seasoned and the usage of fresh herbs. Highly recommend! ”
“ I had a chance to check out this restaurant with some friends this weekend and was overall impressed! Our friend made a reservation the day before for 4 ppl and it was a good thing we did because it did seem pretty busy around the time we got there, which was 7 pm. Their drink menu was really diverse and interesting with a lot of seasonal beverages. I got the wedge Caesar salad and the sweet potato chicken sliders, as well as the pomme frites for the table. The fries are a very, very generous portion, definitely a big enough basket for 4 ppl to nibble on. The wedge Caesar was where it was at. It was HUGE and the flavors were amazing. The bacon is sweet and spicy at the same time, the tomatoes being cooked were bursting with flavor, and the dressing was a less traditional Caesar but delicious in its uniqueness. Although the restaurant is 25 minutes from me, I would drive just to get this salad again. Next time, I would probably add a protein and have the salad as my full meal. The chicken sliders come with three total and were okay. I think the bun to chicken ratio was a little off, as there was way more bun than chicken, and the buns especially were a little dry. I thought the chicken was tasty, but I likely would not order this again. The service was not the best. It took quite some time for us to be greeted and much longer to get our drinks, and in general just not the best. Still, I recognize many places are understaffed, and we had a great time talking and enjoying our food, so not a big deal. As I said, I'd return for the salad, hands down, and would be excited to try other menu items and see their seasonal cocktails. ”
