Restaurants 

Durham provides cuisine to suit every palate -  One of Durham’s regionally and nationally noted restaurants will satisfy the most demanding taste palates. As a Zagat reviewer recently pointed out about Magnolia Grill in Durham:

"I've been eating here since the week it opened. I also have eaten at many of the best (highest rated) restaurants in the world. The Magnolia Grill is the best restaurant in the Triangle, and competes at the top level with restaurants in NYC, Chicago, Philadelphia, Italy, France, Japan, and elsewhere. Many dishes are sublime, while some are merely very good. It is noisy, though, and has a casual atmosphere. Service is always excellent." 

Durham’s ethnic diversity makes dining out as adventurous as you care to make it: chefs around town excel at dishes hailing from the Middle East, the Caribbean, India, Thailand, South and Central America and Europe.
