Maxwell’s Tavern Celebrates 16 Years With Family at the Heart of It All

Before Maxwell’s Tavern opened its doors for the first time in 2010, the staff gathered beside the bar for a photograph. They were ready to welcome their first customers, though no one could have known how much downtown Waxhaw – or the restaurant business – would change or that the original owners and several original team members would still shine there every day, sixteen years later.

Wilmington eatery named the best "traditional restaurant" in NC

For America's 250th anniversary, Reader's Digest set about compiling a list of the best traditional restaurants in each state. It's not about trendy experiences, they said, but more about those eateries that are all about community and serve dishes that reflect the locale. The list includes mom-and-pop eateries and those that serve comfort foods like meatloaf and mashed potatoes. For North Carolina's representative on the list, the family magazine selected Seabird restaurant at 1 S. Front St. in downtown Wilmington. More: 30 of the best restaurants and bars in the Wilmington area The magazine noted that the restaurant celebrates "the Atlantic’s bounty of fresh seafood." And chef/co-owner Dean Neff has also earned accolades for his hyperlocal approach as a James Beard Foundation "Outstanding Chef" Finalist. In fact, he recently hosted the second annual Out to Sea NC Fest with the purpose of educating and sharing the stories of local fishermen. Reader's Digest said they picked the selections for "The Best Traditional Restaurant in Every State" by looking for iconic establishments that locals love that are also well reviewed.

How a tiny sandwich shop by Charlotte got Michelin's attention, and why you should go

A snug sandwich shop near Charlotte with only 14 seats inside and almost as many picnic tables outside made this year’s Michelin Guide American South as a recommended restaurant, surprising foodie followers used to seeing avant garde tasting menus and fine dining steakhouses on the list. But probably no one in North Carolina was more caught off guard than the owners of Pump Social , Rachael and AJ Donner, who opened the restaurant in a former gas station in Concord just last August . She thought the September email sent by the French tire company’s little red travel guide was spam. At least she did until checking with friends whose Nashville restaurant was listed as a Bib Gourmand last year by “sheepishly” sending them a screenshot — and hearing they believed it was real. “I keep thinking, ‘How did we? Like, how would they even know?’ I don’t know. I have no idea,” Donner said of the whole experience. ”This was never something that was on our radar — ever,” she said. “And then being open a year, and we got that email. Even if it’s just a recommendation. I mean, I’m so happy to be even included,” she said.

10 North Carolina Italian Restaurants Where Your Money Goes Further

I love a fancy dinner as much as anyone. Still, my favorite Italian meals tend to come from family-run rooms with red sauce, garlic knots, and a takeout box for later. In one North Carolina pizzeria, a single slice gets compared to the size of a medium pie. I had to read that twice.
