Right in the heart of Durham, North Carolina, there's a little restaurant with big heart.
Located in Durham's historic Brightleaf district, Rose's Noodles, Dumplings & Sweets stands surrounded by industrial buildings and tobacco warehouses that speak to Durham's earliest days. Our space is small, but it's full of life. Originally built in the 1940's, our restaurant was once the service garage for a car dealership. Neighboring businesses now take up the rest of the car dealership.
If you join us in our dining room, you'll find a fully-open kitchen where customers can actually see their food come together from their seats. Natural light fills the bustling little space, creating a bright, bold setting to enjoy cuisine that is just as full of personality.
