From the beginning, the idea has been ideas.

Before we opened, two other restaurants had come and gone in the same space. Several blocks away, one space has had four tenants in the past five years.

So how did we get to our fifth anniversary, pictured here, and our tenth, and now our fifteenth?

Why do so many of our good customers come to visit with us, time and time again?

How do we attract the "big names" - political figures, people from the arts, movie stars, sports personalities and authors? (One of whom has even been known to write a page or two in our bar area.)

Why would we be a mid-Glenwood phenomenon in an out-of-the-way place while tons of money is being spent promoting a regional shopping center on one side, and the latest "hot strip" in Raleigh on the other?

There are lots of answers, but they all boil down to this: We simply pay attention to our customers, what they like and what they don't.

Dress code at Glenwood Grill - we're flexible.

Then we work hard to do things that make them feel good about being here.

For example, there's our Dress Code. As you can see, we're flexible. What suits you, suits us. (We do require children to dress as kids.)

 

Then there's our approach to making sure you get in and out when you're on the way to a concert, the ballet or a play. And, also, staying open late enough to be there if you prefer to stop by on your way home.

On Sunday, September 9, from 3 to 8, John Wright and other Grill people 'dished it up' at Triangle Town Center for a very special cause, Wake Med Children's Center. The people of Glenwood Grill were happy to help with an event like this. The Triangle may be one of the fastest-growing places in the country, but it still has a great spirit of community.

Ten years ago, Executive Chef John Wright came to us from Magnolias in Charleston, SC. bringing Fried Green Tomatoes, Vidalia Onion Pancakes and the Carpetbagger. Now, after one year away, he's back, with bright new ideas, a sparkling new grill in the back, and a new, Expanded Menu that's drawing rave reviews out front. Welcome back, John. Laura Barfield, our Manager, was born in Guam and lived in “dozens of places” before Raleigh. Prior to joining our waitstaff in 2003, one way or another, she’s been in Customer Service with Food Lion, Home Depot, Coldwell Banker (HPW) and the Upper Deck.
Sous Chef Adam Reid hails from Coshocton, OH, about 60 miles east of Columbus. He studied Culinary Arts at Zane State College in Ohio. Adam was Sous Chef at River Grill and also worked at Ravens Glen Winery before joining us, where he is earning a following for his deft touch with desserts.

 

Assistant Manager Jessica Pedersen, a native of Richmond VA, has been with us since early 2007. A graduate of William & Mary with a degree in Philosophy, she worked for 7 years at A. Carroll’s Bistro in Williamsburg as waitress and manager. In her spare time, she also works as a Personal Trainer, certified by the American Council on Exercise.
