Really good but too far from where I live to go there often. I was in the area. Many, many choices so I asked the servers to surprise me and they did great.

I'm a musician (Keyboardist and Pianist) and play in one of the main churches in the Raleigh-Durham area. We bought a Yamaha T118 Upright piano. We coordinated an appointment and Heritage Piano (Randy Ines) came just in time. He was very professional, he demonstrated a lot of knowledge and experience. He is and awesome pianist. He used to correct tools to perform the job. He performed an assessment of the whole piano and he made some recommendations but he didn't make pressure to do it.
He performed an awesome tune of my piano. I highly recommend Heritage Piano for all your acoustic piano needs. I will continue use Heritage Piano for my Yamaha! God Bless You Randy and Heritage Piano and God Bless You All!
