We opened Rise in Durham, NC in 2012 with a simple vision…serve great food made with premium quality ingredients by people who care. We serve Southern Biscuits, Righteous Chicken Sandwiches & Donuts. Our fluffy, buttermilk and Cheddar biscuits are made from scratch and filled with savory ingredients ranging from crispy bacon and country sausage to fried green tomatoes and our famous Righteous Chicken. What makes our chicken Righteous? It’s tenderized, brined in buttermilk, fried to golden-brown perfection and then served on a biscuit, bun or as strips with your choice of toppings and sauces.
