Tribeca Tavern

Went with my family. The boys ordered burgers, which they seemed to enjoy. The french fries looked very greasy, but they did not seem to mind. I on the other hand ordered salmon, quiona with wild rice. My salmon, was dry; looked like it had been deep fried, had absolutely no seasoning, not even salt, the quiona, did not have any salt either. My husband order fish and chips, and the fish had oil oozing out of it; same with the fries. I have had better food from chain like Chili’s, and their prices are better. If I ever go back, I will just order a burger, no fries.
Service was fine, but food was subpar

I was a regular when I was local. Always happy when I leave. Try the Better than Ted burger, or the mac and cheese. I’ve had people fight over my left overs from Tribeca, more than once! Great seating and atmosphere, for a casual night out or a nice dinner date.

We enjoyed the restaurants choices! Husband had a Bison Burger, loved it!
Loved the different burger options, really unique. Service was a tad slow, they were not busy.
They staff was nice though!

Solid burgers and beers but priced a little higher than they should be. They all sound great on the menu but lack flavor for whatever reason. Sweet potato fries salted perfectly and one of the better gluten free buns I have had were the best parts of the meal.

Burgers are fantastic and cooked to perfection. Burgers are seasoned well and a great cheese list allows for strong complements. Toppings are delicious, and specialty burger list is great as well. Sides are each well prepared and tasty. Tavern nachos appetizer is delicious.

We walked right in on a Saturday with 4 adults and 2 toddlers and got right in at 6PM. It was family friendly and the food was good. I ordered the Imp Burger and it was good… a sloppy mess, but good. The fries are seasoned lightly and delicious. Our service was really good and when our server got busy the other staff pitched in and made sure we were taken care of. We would eat here again for sure.

Best burger I’ve had in years
Maybe ever
Love the bison burger and onion rings
Perfectly cooked, served on a nice roll
Yum
Good service
Even on busiest nights always a short wait

Tried Tribeca Tavern and had a wonderful meal.
We were seated on the upstairs covered patio which left a little something to be desired. It was noisy and got chilly as the sun went down. However our waitress, Heather, and the food made up for the location.
I had the Shrimp and Grits, which were some of the best of I’ve had anywhere. Shrimp and Grits is one of those items I’ll try at a new restaurant just to see how they do, and Tribeca hit one out of the park.
My boyfriend had the steak sandwich and homemade chips which was also very good. His son had the fish tacos and raved about them as well. All in all everything we tried was served hot and was flavorful.
We will definitely be returning to Tribeca Tavern again.

Tribeca is a pretty casual place so we never go in expecting a Michelin experience but that last time we were here was terrible. It was the first night of the NCAA tourney and the first over-​75 degree night so we asked to sit outside. You’d think a bar would be prepared for this to be a busy night. But they had one server for 8 tables in the upstairs patio. The younger server was clearly not trained well enough to be on his own yet, let alone on a busy night.
–We sat for 10 minutes before being acknowledged
–15 minutes after that we got water
–15 minutes after water we got our glass of wine and draft beer
–30 minutes later we got our appetizer
–About 30 minutes after our appetizer our burgers came out
By the time we left it was over 2 hours at the restaurant, for 2 drinks, an app, and 2 burgers. Near the end of the meal a manager did come up and several tables told him about the poor experience and he offered a discount which we appreciated.
We’ll probably come back because it’s tasty and convenient but not if I’m in a rush! And avoid the upstairs — the busser told us it is always slower.

I’ve eaten at Tribeca Tavern 2 or 3 times since my original review and as sports bars go, TT remains a cut above all the others nearby in both delivery, food and atmosphere. This is a place where I do no mind taking my in-​laws for dinner as they can always find something enticing on the menu!
During my last visit we had a gluten free shrimp and grits dish which was very well done! The grits were perfectly cooked — not too sticky and not too runny. We also had The Wolfpack Burger — again perfectly cooked but be warned, it’s a larger burger and some of it went home. The only disappointing dish was mine and it was something I’ve had before — the Fish Tacos which are served in a soft shell taco with fish and garnishments. If I order them ever again, I will omit the guacamole which was easily filling ¹⁄₃ of the taco base or request it be on the side. In this delivery, the guacamole was so much and SO oily that before I could get thru the 1^st taco, they were literally falling apart in my hands and guacamole was running everywhere. I came very close to sending this dish back to the kitchen and that is something I rarely consider. After the first taco disintegrated, I found myself picking thru the garnish on the others for just the fish. You were unable to pick them up. However, they did redeem themselves with dessert, as this location offers selections from Sugar Buzz Bakery which are gluten free and so good — that made up for the very oily taco execution. Overall, reliable meals, service was spot on, Jeremy our waiter even checked with the Chef on gluten free items, and he made sure all beverages were refilled promptly… just maybe perhaps ask for the guacamole «on the side». Cheers.

I have been here a few times and the food has been hit or miss. This last visit was definitely a miss. I normally order a burger of some type. This time I had the bruschetta burger and it totally lacked flavor. Maybe I need to try something else, but honestly there’s nothing unusual on the menu that will draw me back.

Good: Good beer and thoughtful pairing concept.
Bad: The food is just off… Not bad, per se… just off. For the price (~$ 15 for a burger) I expected a better fusion of flavors. Everyone in my party agreed that it tasted like the wrong ingredients were used by accident. Example — A sweet honey mayo mustard-​ish like flavored sauce was on everything… Including the fried pickles.
The reason for 2 stars? The food was overpriced, the atmosphere was stuffy, and it felt like low rent country club.

I was working in the area and decided to stop there for lunch. Whenever I see a turkey burger on a menu I tend to lean towards it. This burger did not disappoint… all white meat, bean sprouts, guac, onions tomato and mayo on a brioche bun. This was my go to burger while I was there for a month. When I was about to leave they totally changed it up, switched to a whole grain bun, brie cheese, cranberry relish and dijon mustard sauce. Fortunately I liked it both ways but my friend that had grown to love it as well was very upset. They still made it the other way for us. The crab dip and calamari were also very great.

I heard Tribeca has some of the best kids meal options so we ventured there with little one and my inlaws the day before Thanksgiving. I am happy to say it was a total success. We went early enough that there was no wait and service was pretty quick.
The kids meal is $ 6 with your typical choices of grilled cheese, chicken tenders, burgers, plus they also offer salmon and steak and other items. 1 side is included plus fruit or dessert and a drink. I have never seen my son eat so much of his food — he had chicken tenders, Mac n cheese, and fruit. The rest of us went with burgers, the steak sandwich, and drinks. My inlaws liked the Mashhouse beer offerings and my husband tried the old fashioned Manhattan and thought it was done very well — could have used a little more bitters but strong and tasty.
As far as sides go, I really like their French fries — steak cut and seasoned just right — lately the fries I’ve gotten at some other area burger places have been overly salted. Tribeca’s were salted just right. The side salad is also a high quality side salad and I really liked their ranch.
I don’t make it to Tribeca as often as I’d like but we’re always happy with it.

Second time coming here. Service was great both times. I made my own burger the first time. Was very good. Second time I got the «wolf pack» burger. Burger was cooked well but I was a bit disappointed in the bbq sauce. It just didn’t add much to the burger like I was hoping. Will just stick to making my own burger next time. French fries here are great. Love all the beer selections on tap and the fact they make them. Ipa my favorite but also had the hefeweizen which was tasty as well.

The burgers were amazing, with some unique offerings. We went on a busy Saturday night and were seated pretty quickly. Everyone was friendly, service was great and quick, and I loved being able to watch the game on the TV in our booth. Beer selection was good, but the beer menu wasn’t really clear. Some of the menu names didn’t match with the beer names from those breweries, or wasn’t well defined. I ordered a beer from Lonerider that was supposed to be a special offering, but the waitress brought in and said it was a Sweet Josie Brown. Another beer didn’t taste like the description, so I wonder if it wasn’t mixed up as well.
So food and service was great, bar service not so good.

Well, we used to eat here often. I used to come to the bar and watch games often as well. Tonight, we ordered take-​out. I don’t think we could possibly be more disappointed. The onion rings as well as the two fried green tomatoes (that came on my burger) were quite overdone (pics attached). Also, a $ 12 chef salad had TWO deli thin slices of ham and TWO deli thin slices of turkey (also a very small amount of bacon — perhaps ½ a slice at most)! For $ 12!!! Are you joking? Luckily I had cold cuts at home (ham and turkey) so I could add them for my husband. Come on, Tribeca… you can do better than this…

I am big fan of Tribeca Tavern. This is my go to place for fabulous fried pickles and great burgers.
My go to burger is the SOUTHERN LOVIN’; covered with fried green tomatoes, goat cheese, aged balsamic, lettuce, tomato, and onion; it takes a big mouth to bite into this monster, but it’s worth every messy bite.
They have a huge selection of burgers and other pub fare. They specialize in local NC products; cheese, beef, and bison to name a few. They also support local breweries.
Do not miss a taste of some great NC flavors.

Very good Bison burger! Everyone was talking good about the burger i had to try it… Very little taste difference from beef and in a positive way.
The house chips were also good. All of our group had great meals. The server was friendly and always checking on us.
Yes, I will return and might have the bison burger again.

My husband and I have been long time customers of the raleigh location, and after visiting the cary location several times we can’t decide which location we enjoy more. This is a great place to go for a delicious meal at a reasonable price. The restaurant is quite large with several fireplaces and a cozy bar area (which is where I prefer to sit if a table is open). Service has always been friendly and efficient, and the meals are always as described and always DELICIOUS. I also appreciate that they use lots of local ingredients and NC beers as well (mash house IPA is a favorite of mine, which we were able to purchase a growler of from the bar to take home for a few after dinner beers… super convenient!). Tribeca is always on point, highly recommended!

We’ve lived in Cary for over three years. We’ve dined at Tribeca several times. Unfortunately… many of those times have not been good times.
We’ve waited significantly longer than waits were told, been roasted while sitting at outdoor seating during the cold months from too hot of heaters, left to find servers to get drinks/​sauces/​bills, and just poor food that was overcooked on on occasion. Last year on my husband’s birthday they tried to put a reservation of 10 at two separate areas… at three uneven tables. When I talked to the manager that this wasn’t what we had in mind for a reservation for a party… he acted annoyed. Eventually we got another table, but the staff acted bothered we didn’t want to be split up and sat at different tables. Several other occasions we have been passed between severs during our dining, left waiting to find our own salt/​pepper/​ketchup from other tables… and yes, we come back because the food is good.
The food and menu is great, most times the food is perfect… burgers — awesome. Shrimp and grits — some of the best in the triangle. tacos — one of my favorites.
After our latest experience of waiting 30 minutes when we were told 20 minutes, the hostess’s didn’t have an explanation of what they couldn’t seat us at one of the three visible clean open tables. We had been waiting standing in the bar area trying to find a table leaving, we noticed a family that was finishing boxing their food and kept and eye on them when a rude woman literally pushed the party as they were leaving at the bar out of the booth we were watching and ignored the fact we had been standing there waiting patiently. The hostess offered no answers, we decided to go to a very nice establishment nearby that we’ve experience much better service at…
after this past weekend… we won’t be back for a good six months of so.
I hear the north raleigh location is better, maybe we will try that next time.
