Dain's Place on 9th is pretty good. Elmo's Diner is also excellent. Alivia's and Devine's are across the street from Satisfaction and are also great choices — Devines is more student-heavy than Alivia's, though.
I did an article on Top Restaurants for Duke Fans. If I left out a good restaurant, please comment in the article or here. Thanks!

Tylers Taproom...watched the white raven return game against miami there (among others)...they toss it up on a projector in the back room...was nuts.

Don't eat out much in Durham, do you?
Elmo's, Rue Cler, Pop's, Toast, Nana's, Foster's, Piedmont, Vin Rouge, Four Square, Parizade, Parker and Otis, Q Shack (not for me, however) ,Six Plates, The Nasher, Watt's Grocery, etc. And, I'm sure that there are so many, many more that the posters here can tell you about.

Thanks for all the replies! Keep them coming!
We have tickets for the Nov 15 game and hopefully will make it to the bowl game. I went to Atlanta last year, and it was all great except for the final score. We would have made it to another home game except for all the problems we have been having around here that precluded our ability to go. See you on the 15th.

I must admit that the first time I saw the title of this thread I read OT as OL and wondered what fan friendly restaurants had to do with them!
Charlie's has terrible food and an even worse atmosphere. The Cosmic Cantina is the bottom of the barrel for Mexican food. In addition to what others have said, I would recommend Bull McCabe's, Dame's Chicken and Waffles, The Pit BBQ, Geer Street Garden, Pizzeria Toro, The Federal...there are also a couple of really good tapas places on Main St.
We're partial to Spartacus, over in the South Square area on the 15-501 Bus. service road in front of Target. Very pro Duke, good Greek food.
Most of the good Mexican food in Durham is on Roxboro Road (also, La Vaquita near the Hardee's on 15-501). I love you guys for defending the Cosmic, but it really does suck. GO DUKE!!!
