"Neuse River is known for its Wednesday night pasta nights, but the burger is also an overwhelming favorite. Instead of a more traditional cheese on top, the hearty half-pound burger housed between a Union Special brioche bun comes slathered with a homemade beer cheese and garlic aioli. Fried onion straws and sour pickles cut the richness of the two sauces so that the end result is a flavor-drenched bite worthy of a repeat visit. Best for: Beer and upscale bar food" - Elliott Harrell
