This place is awesome. My wife and I go to dinner or Sunday brunch almost twice a month. The menu is great and has items you won't find anywhere else. Try the mahi with gouda potatoes. The host (who I think is the owner) is professional and always helping out the servers. When friends or clients ask where to go, I always tell them Humble Pie!
Pros: service, food, patio,prices

This is the 3rd -- and absolute LAST time -- we've gone/will go to Humble Pie. Restaurant was mostly empty tonight, so we got prompt service from the regular waitstaff. Food was decent, but in comparison to other places in the area (The Pit, Zely & Ritz, Tasca Brava, etc), food was mediocre and definitely not worth the price, particularly since the owner was really rude to our group. We will definitely not go back. I do not recommend taking your guests here either. We had out-of-town guests, and they now have a horrible opinion of Raleigh dining.
Pros: not crowded
Cons: mediocre food, rude owner

Food was great. This is a wonderful place for a group with varied tastes or wanting to sample plenty of dishes. Our group had no fewer than 6 or 7 apps. and tapas and ALL of them were delicious. We were disappointed the cheese plate and banana dessert we wanted to order was not available, but the chef personally came to our table and made us a "make up" dessert for the birthday girl. Super berries and cream.
For the selections we had, we were pleasantly surprised the food bill was reasonable. A great place for dates, girl's night, a large group, or a light pre-party dinner/drinks. Would highly recommend for all of them. Atmosphere is nice and open inside and patio looks romantic and cool at night.
Pros: Service can get fragmented on busy nights
Cons: Make reservations (especially for patio on weekend nights)

The food and atmosphere work together to create a perfect dining experience. The restaurant was large and spacious with a warm, inviting feel. For two people, we had four dishes which was more than enough. Three dishes to share would probably be the best combination. The shrimp and grits and ahi tuna were absolutely to die for! The shrimp broth really was "of the gods" with such a rich, but yet refreshing flavor. The grits were in the form of crispy cakes that melted in the broth to create a most satisfying texture. The ahi tuna was perfectly seared on the outside and a deep red in the middle. Their food was so delicious and I plan on going back many times more.
Pros: Great food and atmosphere
Cons: Parking

Jim and Joe's Place: If you had asked Joe when he was having convulsions on-stage at State's Sigma-Nu Fraternity at a Johnny Quest show, that years and years ( and years) later he would be paired up with one of Raleigh's famous bartenders (Jim, dummy) and together own one of Raleigh's top speak-easy hipster joints...he'd have said, "Probably." This place is the Viper Room for Raleigh. If you don't know what that is, ask your mom or dad.
The food is gold plated extacy and the service staff is more educated than you are. Love it.

I went to this restaurant with a couple of friends recently, and I have to say it was a lot of fun. The food was delicious, and not too skimpy for tapas like a previous reviewer mentioned. The drinks were incredibly reasonably priced when we got the bill, compared with most places in town that will charge you $10 or more for a high-end vodka martini.
Our server was very laid-back and knowledgeable (we had the little blond girl, I didn't catch her name), and was able to steer us in the right direction on some menu choices. The stuffed shells were amazing, and we had a mushroom dish that was really good too at her reccommendation. Overall, service was wonderful, friendly, and efficient.
The table we sat at was out on the patio, which I have to say is one of the best in town, and it's much less loud than inside. People had a dog out there, which is good to know, because I have a dog and a lot of places won't let you sit with your dog on the patio. The one bad thing is that the flies out there get pretty annoying before dark, but once the sun went down they went away.
Pros: food, service, cheap drinks, good patio, allows dogs
Cons: flies, the music playng wasn't very good

Went for dinner and drinks on a Friday night. They were short-staffed, it was exceptionally busy, and despite all that the service was great and the food was delicious.

My wife and I have always loved Humble Pie for brunch, so we decided to check it out for dinner last weekend. We took another couple and had a fantastic time. We shared wine, desserts, and at least 10 dishes. The saltimbocca and the mushroom napoleon were great. Our bill was very reasonable for the huge spread. Our waitress was attentive and answered all questions. We plan on going back for Valentine's Day!
Pros: great value for food and wine

I enjoy TAPAS style restaurants but stay away from the Bacon Wrapped Shrimp. Unless you like paying $9 for 3 small pieces of shrimp (and nothing else with it).
The waiters were very good - the salad was good and the atmosphere was nice.
Pros: Waiters and staff
Cons: Very small portions - even for TAPAs
