STIR is the perfect restaurant to enjoy a night out, host clients, or sip a craft cocktail over a dozen oysters. Located in North Hills, the restaurant is an open-air concept with a large, heated outdoor patio. We are open for lunch, dinner, and weekend brunch.

Our cold bar and kitchen offers fresh oysters from North Carolina and beyond, traditional Mexican and Peruvian ceviche, and classic entrees and specials, all prepared from scratch.

STIR is famous for craft cocktails. We freeze and carve 300-pound blocks of artisanal ice in-house, age certain cocktails in oak barrels for richer flavors, and place others on draft for crispness and carbonation.
The result is a categorically elevated cocktail. Our passion for fine spirits also compels us to find and share rare bottles, many of which are extremely difficult to procure.

We welcome Raleigh to enjoy our unmatched cocktails, fresh seafood from the cold bar, and classic dishes in an atmosphere of genuine hospitality.

    Great food and great service. They do keep the lights low which might make it difficult for people to see the menu but it creates a romantic ambience.

    Friday night the restaurant was crowded and noisy, service was slow getting the food out. Server was polite and apologized for the delay. Food was very good. I had the salmon and it was perfectly cooked and had a nice flavor. Also, the rice and vegetables were very good.

    When we walked in, the floor was extremely slippery. Even the staff said they had fallen multiple times the day we ate dinner. I feel this is a danger to anyone wlakign around. I could slide with ease while I walked around. I don't know if it is from grease or their floor needs to be sanded or added grits to make it manageable to walk around. I would hate to see someone fall and get a serious injury or end up with hot food dumped on them. Management seems to know about slippery floor. So, I don't feel safe to return for another dining experience..

    I love Stir and as always the service was great. The food was delicious. My complaint is the menu revamp took ceviche off the list of offerings. I was so disappointed as I am particularly fond of Stir’s ceviche offerings. I REALLY hope management will consider bringing it back. Otherwise it was a great experience as usual!

    I have been to Stir three times now. This is the first time I am writing a review. I love it there. The food is good and the service is good. My only hang up and disappointment were the hosts. I specifically reserved the hightop table. So naturally when I arrived, thats what I was expecting. But instead we were given a standard table. Whats the purpose of forcing guests to make a reservation when they won't get what they want anyway? While it's not the end of the world because of it, it's a matter of principle.

    Loved the atmosphere and the oysters were great. Server was warm & checked in often. Unfortunately, I ordered my steak medium and it came out well done and burnt, hard to even cut. The goat cheese ravioli with it—the pasta was hard. The fries with my husbands burger were great, but the rest of the food left something to be desired. Fun place to grab oysters and drinks, but wouldn’t recommend staying for dinner.

    I was seated early for my reservation, I don’t think my waiter was initially informed- there was a busy moment transpiring- the welcome snack tray fights off the hangry moment & much appreciated since it was brunch , no worries champagne was ordered, my special request with fruit with my waffle, no guff- the GM was super super nice as my waiter & to top it off I met Bill Bellamy my girls brunch date was awesome!!

    We sat at the table for over 10 mins and no one ever came to the table. The restaurant was not busy at all… the employees were sitting down at the tables when we walked in. One employee had his phone plugged in and stretch out on the couch having a conversation on his phone as if he was at home. Long story short we ended up leaving and going to a different restaurant.

    Erica is a great waitress. Pleasant and professional. We ordered fried tomatoes and salmon cakes for appetizers and they were both hot, freshly made and very tasty. For entrees we chose the filet and ravioli and my husband chose the sesame steak bowl. My filet and ravioli were very good although the pasta was a tad chewy. My husbands bowl was tasty but unfortunately all cold. They did redo the dish and it was flavorful and filling. All in all we would come back and likely get drinks and heavy appetizers.

    We relocated from DC and have been looking for a nice bar for drinks and nibbles. Stir fits the bill. Upbeat atmosphere, lively but not too noisy. Service was spot on. Food was fine (note: portions are enormous). Drinks are very good and they have a nice variety. The clientele is a nice mix of young and not-so-young (like us :) We enjoyed it and will return.

    Food was fine, and service was good. The pricing was just kinda wild to me, 17 dollars for a chop salad without meat doesn’t make sense. This isn’t a unique phenomenon to stir but it is a bit baffling, it seems pricing is decided completely arbitrarily. Considering the garbanzo beans are the most expensive ingredient in the chop salad, the estimated cost of ingredients being generous would be about 5$. This makes the salad a 240% increase to the price of ingredients. Once again this is a chop salad, the preparation involved in producing this dish is minimal. While I do obviously expect to pay more in a restaurant than to cook something myself, this level of price increase for such a basic dish could be called predatory.

    The night we went was extremely busy and the waitstaff and support were overwhelmed. Luckily the food was excellent. However they had No sparkling water of any kind, they brought appetizers but we had a 20 min wait to get plates to put them on. The entrees took another 30 min to arrive. The manager did come bye to apologize, but could have done more to make us happier! Maybe a free something. We were there for 3 hours mostly waiting on drinks and food. It is also way too loud. They could put baffling in the ceiling to help!
