Review by Lizzie Koelpin

September 05, 2024

Bar Virgile is an absolute gem in Durham! 🍽️ We stopped by for dinner after a show at DPAC and couldn’t have been more thrilled.

The atmosphere is vibrant yet cozy, perfect for unwinding. I highly recommend the fried oysters - simply divine! Their rotating pasta dish with blackened shrimp was delightful, but the highlight was definitely the cocktails; our bartender nailed the recommendations!

Though it can get busy, the service remained friendly and attentive throughout. Just be prepared for a bit of a wait on the weekends! I can’t wait to return for more delicious small plates and excellent drinks. Cheers! 🍹
