" What a gem of a place! Stopped here at the bakery for a quick bite and ended up indulging in an array of their pastries. The almond croissant was divine! The sit-down section felt cozy and welcoming. Would love to revisit and try a full meal very soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" Famous Restaurant exceeded my expectations after hearing glowing reviews! The authentic flavors in every dish are evident. I celebrated a friend's birthday, ordering a variety of cuisines, and I was pleasurably surprised at the freshness. Not to forget their bakery touched our hearts with the creamy cakes! A must-visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations based on the reviews, and they were met! The lasagna was hearty and cheesy, while the garlic bread on the side was just the right amount of crispy. I loved how my server, although busy, made sure to check on us frequently. I can’t wait to go back for their bakeries! Tried a slice of their red velvet cake, and honestly, it’s one of the best I’ve had in a long time. This will be my new go-to in town! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Famous for the first time was delightful! This quaint place has a charm that drew me in from the start. I ordered the chef's salad but ended up wanting more of their delicious bakery items. The white chocolate cake was a sweet ending to the meal! I would already recommend this place to my friends. Despite the slight wait for our food during a busy lunchtime, the atmosphere was relaxed and cheery which made it enjoyable! " (*Curated Review*)

" The restaurant has a cozy feel, and the food was overall satisfying. I ordered the stuffed peppadews for an appetizer and really enjoyed them! However, my main dish of chicken alfredo was just average; it lacked depth in flavor. On the plus side, I took home a couple of pastries, and they were outstanding! Always look forward to dining here! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place oozes charm and warmth, and the food is what you'll dream of later! I went for lunch and had their fantastic meat lasagna—rich, cheesy goodness! The bakery’s pastries did not disappoint either, I ended up buying an extra box to take home. Can’t wait until I’m back in New Bern to indulge again! " (*Curated Review*)

" The restaurant is decent, a place where I've had both good and forgettable meals. The Greek salad was refreshing with a generous splash of dressing, but the baked ziti could have used more flavor. While the service was friendly, it felt a bit slow during peak lunch hours. However, I found the bakery to be the highlight, especially their tiramisu and almond cake, which were divine! I’d say it’s worth a visit specifically to satisfy your sweet tooth. " (*Curated Review*)
