Hands down the best restaurant I've been to in NC. Everything was so good. It's hard to pick my favorite thing! They print their menu daily too.
The milkbread (thankfully, they took it off the menu and is now complimentary) came out when we sat down, and we were immediately blown away. Despite the generous portion, we easily devoured the croissant-like bread within a few minutes.
We ordered the squid ink cochiglie, the trout, the crispy oysters, and the potato and green garlic soup.
The crispy oysters were seasoned to perfection, not too greasy and just the right amount of crisp. The potato and green garlic had a nice peppered spice. The pasta was flavorful; the sea urchin butter gave it a nice seafood fragrance. The NC shrimp was so good and added to the flavor.
Four dishes were plenty for 2.
No complaints here, they did everything perfectly, and I will definitely be coming back!
