How locals rank it
In Raleigh–Durham
From the local food press
Editor’s picks from published local guides
Rue Cler has long given downtown Durham a direct, comfortable version of French bistro dining. Dinner may pair escargots or a crisp salad with steak frites, duck, or fish, while brunch brings beignets and eggs into the room. The atmosphere stays easygoing, allowing classic technique to come through without making the meal feel formal.
