The breakfast buffet is above average to excellent. Definitely pricey. The atmosphere is pleasant and the wait staff are friendly and helpful. I would prefer Waffle House but this was convenient good food with limited timeline.

Fortunately, I come to Raleigh often for business and this hotel restaurant is by far, the best in the region. As with most hotel restaurants their menu suffered during Covid but this restaurant is doing a great job working their way back in to an expanded menu. One week they had salmon skin on the menu and it was truly fresh as they did actually cook it rare as requested. The flavor profiles of the dishes do have differentiating tastes which is surprising for a “hotel” restaurant. Try the wings! They are fabulous and huge. Christine and Antone are the best bartenders!!

The wings and bbq pork pizza were excellent here! It’s located in the Hilton lobby but it’s a huge size space. The menu was a little more limited in person than what we saw online but that’s okay! The staff was very nice. We ate at the bar and enjoyed cocktails.

I had room service so I can't speak on the atmosphere but the food was amazing. I would 100%eat here again Edit: I gabe them a card instead of charging to my room and they charged me twice. Once to my room and once on my card. It took me days to get someone to listen and, get it taken care of.

One of the best cheeseburgers I've eaten in the last 5 years! Ample parking, great service and the acoustics of the open dining room are perfect for a business lunch.

The food is awesome! I have tried the Grilled Salmon, the steaks and other things and can honestly say that I've never had a bad meal. I love this place.

I got the pulled pork sandwich with french fries and it was amazing! So fresh and hot..the fries were those weird thick twists and they had just been made..they were so crispy. And the sandwich was huge..I shared half of it with my sister. The sauce on it was great..not too much or too little..just right. The only thing I didn't like was the slaw that came on the side. To me, it was just awful..bitter tasting. But I would definitely eat this again!

88 Oaks is the place to be!!! John Casablanca Model & Talent Management had their 2022 Graduation Ceremony on Saturday, November 26, 2022. I was one of the Graduates 🎓. This is a huge hotel large front lobby area. The staff was nice and friendly.

This is a great place for lunch, although I haven't tried it for dinner. The menu is simple, but effective because the food is excellent and the prices are very reasonable. The atmosphere is a typical sports bar with many TVs to watch. They have a decent selection of beers on tap, and the top shelf mainstays too. I could see there being service issues if it was a time when the Hilton had some kind of function going on (meetings/conventions, etc.). The staff seems a bit dour all the time, which is understandable in the hospitality industry and its hard-to-please guests.

Good selections on the buffet. Didn't like that our bacon was cooked several hours ahead of time when we ordered a la carte. Place looks nice and is clean. I like the open feel. We will eat there again next time we stay at the Hilton.

We had traveled all day and didn’t want to get back in traffic so decided to eat in the hotel. We were very pleased with our meal. The short rib was excellent! My flat iron steak was perfectly cooked but had a smoky flavor, which I am not a fan of. I would recommend this restaurant.

Atmosphere is nice, and there drinks are delicious, and there dry rub wings are out of this world. The Mac and cheese is swanging, some might not for care for it because of adding things into the the Mac and cheese but I certainly love it. I didn’t too much care for the crab dip but when as long as you address it wi the staff they compensate and fake it off your bill. Over experience was great, and customer service is always wonderful.
