This was my second visit to Irregardless Cafe and I just had to write to let you know how great it was! The entire dining experience was superb!\r
\r
We started with the Middle Eastern Platter - very good and good for you! The spices they added to the humus really set it off from others.\r
\r
For salad we chose the Warm Goat Cheese Salad and I think it was the best salad I've ever had. Imagine - a big warm goat cheese ""cake"" over top a bed of baby romaine along with cranberries, candied pecans and the most delicious vinaigrette salad dressing! I just love all those ingredients mixed together. Yummm! The goat cheese is dipped in breadcrumbs and spices then fried. It was just awesome! I can't wait to go back and have another. Maybe just get this for lunch!\r
\r
For dinner I chose the Blackened Salmon and my hubby ordered the Rib eye - both done to perfection. The Salmon had a creamy sauce on it and it melted in your mouth. I ordered mine medium and my husband's rib eye was med. rare.\r
\r
To top it all off we splurged with your Chocolate Chip Coconut Custard Pie and coffee. \r
\r
Our friends had a pasta dish and scallops and they loved their meals also. \r
\r
The reason we picked the Irregardless Cafa is because a friend who used to live in Raleigh recommended it and she said this was her favorite restaurant. Yes, it is does cost a bit more than you would spend at Outback. But come on... can you really compare???\r
\r
As far as the parking goes, someone on Citysearch state that Irregardless ONLY had street side parking. This is not true. Their is a parking lot 2 doors down from the resturant. \r

Oh... I didn't mention the live music. Just the right sound, not too loud, not too soft.
Pros: Unique selection of appetizers, entrees and deserts.
Cons: Cost a bit more than some places, but worth it.
