Finding The Best Restaurants in the Triangle Area
These are some of the best restaurants that Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill have to offer.
The Triangle Area has so much to offer in terms of culture as there is a diverse population. The colleges in the area are some of the best in the country with Duke University, UNC-Chapel Hill, and North Carolina State University. A number of graduates decide to start their careers or businesses in this area. With all of this also comes great food which is something that is always growing in the Triangle Area.
Seafood
A seafood restaurant is going to differ greatly from a sushi restaurant that only serves this. Raleigh and the surrounding area are far from the coast where seafood is caught. NC Seafood at the Farmer’s Market makes it a priority to serve Triangle residents the freshest seafood possible. There are even a number of customers that state that this seafood is better than they find at coastal restaurants. A dedication to fresh seafood makes a difference when it comes to taste.
