The Duck and Dumpling is a class act restaurant with a huge touch of NYC chic that goes down to the menu design of corrugated cardboard and mylar. The ambiance couldn't have been better, from the soft jazz floating into your ears to the view of the square in downtown Raleigh through the large street side windows, very nice. The food was exquisite (Moo Shoo Duck!!) all combining very unique combinations to tantalize the senses, the presentation was very aesthetically pleasing, and the martini selection was far from lacking (try the French Martini).
Pros: Creative menu, great martinis, atmosphere
Cons: nearby couple
