Editorial Review for Trio – by Susan McDevitt

The Scene
Light, soaring walls accented by tiny lights and huge trees make Trio feel much larger than it appears from the outside. Good thing, because huge crowds flock here at lunch and on weekend nights. Inside, tables and booths in jewel tones add a warm playfulness. Meals are artfully presented (and reasonably priced) combinations of colors and textures.

The Food
The menu is varied with worldwide influences, making this a great place for groups of people with varying tastes. Brick-oven pizzas, pastas, salads and sandwiches are offered, and entrees include favorites such as pork tenderloin, grilled lamb sirloin and blackened grouper. You won't go wrong with the filet mignon (served in two five-ounce portions), and the roasted corn jalapeno crab cakes. Trio's signature soup, mulligatawny, proved to be perfectly curried, but too much of it won't leave room for the delightful North Carolina sweet potato chips topped with melted Stilton cheese, so pace yourself.

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

We have gone many times and never been disappointed. We especially love the brick oven trio appetiser. Both fish and beef dishes are fantastic. The atmosphere is also very casual but elegant.

1 Star Rating: Not Recommended

Just tried Trio out for the first time. It's terrible. The food is bland, improperly prepared, and low quality. I couldn't even finish my meal.

Pros: Nice looking restaurant

Cons: Terrible food!
