The perfect one-two punch for dinner and drinks isn’t always easy to find, but Garland manages to pull off the best - and possibly only - one-two-three punch in Raleigh. You could spend an entire night here between the restaurant, club downstairs, and music venue on top. Focus on the dishes with both Indian and Southern touches like fried chicken thighs with turmeric-yogurt sauce, coconut-poached shrimp with fried tapioca, and spiced lamb shank osso bucco with channa dal, while staring at the gallery wall of mostly bright red paintings that you’ll want to recreate at home. Dinner here is the perfect start, middle, or end to your (incredibly convenient) night.
