    Cafe Tiramisu has been our "go to" restaurant in Raleigh for many years. The food is always good, and the service is exceptional. Binh, a waitress, has been there for more than sixteen years - and is lots of fun. Don't miss out on the tiramisu for dessert. It is the best we've ever had.

    Our server was excellent; making great recommendations and even gifting the table with an app for the table to try, keeping in mind our food allergies and preferences. Everyone raved about their personal dishes, including the pork belly soup, chicken curry, and a papaya salad with trout. Prices are fair and there is something on the menu for everyone, even if you think you’re not a fan of Asian food. Lovely atmosphere as well. Will definitely go again!

    You need to define or let people know where the parking is and have availability for handicap parking without walking a city block away The doctors parking across the street I am sure people are being towed from there as they thought that it was parking for your location
