Raleigh Hidden Gem:

Angie’s Restaurant is where Raleigh locals go for a no-frills, feel-good Southern breakfast. This spot serves up fluffy biscuits, perfect grits, and country ham that hits just right. The service? Like family. The portions? Generous. The vibe? Classic diner, with a side of sweet tea and hospitality. Just don’t sleep in too late…it’s a breakfast-and-lunch-only kind of place, and the regulars don’t play when it comes to getting their favorite booth.
