Raleigh, NC - Breathing new life into Suite 10 at 510 Glenwood Avenue in Downtown Raleigh, the partners behind Raleigh Roadhouse have set April 1-2, 2016 as their new concept’s grand opening weekend.

Partners Bobby Glass, Emil LaCivita, and Schaefer O'Neill have made quick work of renovating the ground level suite that was formerly occupied by Hi 5, Draft, and most recently, The Oakz, after taking over the vacant space in late February. The new BBQ restaurant and live music venue will feature a menu that is prepared fresh daily from never-frozen ingredients. Eastern and western pulled pork BBQ, ribs, brisket, homemade pecan pie, and other house-made southern staples round out the menu that can be previewed at http://www.raleighroadhouse.com/menu/ - with more coming under the direction of Chef Thomas Cullipher.

For the grand opening weekend, regional favorite party bands Love Tribe and The Switch will perform on Friday, April 1 and Saturday, April 2, respectively. Shows begin at 10 p.m. nightly with no cover! Live music will be a key feature of the venture, with top acoustic acts performing on Wednesday nights, and the region’s best live bands on Thursday and Saturday nights.

Raleigh Roadhouse will be open Monday through Wednesday from 5:00 p.m. until 11:00 p.m., Thursday and Friday from 5:00 p.m. until 2 a.m., and weekends from 12:00 p.m. until 2:00 a.m. (serving lunch on weekends).
