So evidently this place is 'cursed.' Hopefully the restaurant gods will smile on Fork. The building has been through several hands in the last few years. The ambiance is quite lovely and it was a 60 degree day (in Feb - I love NC weather!) - had it been a few degrees warmer it would have been nice to sit on the veranda.
Today we went in for brunch. The food looked very yummy, but was maybe just slightly above average.
I had the french toast. The baked apples on top were by far the best part of the dish. The brioche was very mealy. It was strange, tasted almost cornbread-ish. The bacon was on point, but only two slices for $3 bucks. The hashbrowns were good, but nothing special. I was with a party of 6 and I didn't hear anyone raving about their food. No one was complaining either so in my book that puts this place solidly in the 3 star category. I've had a handful of brunch places with better food, but by far I've had way more places that are worse.
Interestingly enough I found the prices to be OK to slightly high - but my bill was really really low. I don't know why.
