My favorite restaurant in NC is Josephines in Kitty Hawk, NC. We go there at least once per year when duck hunting. Amazing Italian food, and the best Tiramisu ive ever had.
Went back a couple weeks ago for my birthday. Tried the brisket sandwich this time. Yum!Anybody here tried Cowboy in Cornelius? Opened in March I think. Owned by the guy that owns 131 Main (and Tenders, which became PDQ).
Beef brisket (lean, fatty, or mixed), chicken, steaks...as baskets, platters or even some tacos. Fries, Mac & cheese, baked beans, Brunswick stew, collard greens, and some other options as sides.
We went recently for my birthday. I got a filet (served with horseradish) and wife got brisket (at my request) so we could share. Son got a 1/2 chicken. Dad got brisket tacos and his wife got a salad of some kind. Also grabbed a slice of apple pie and some banana pudding to share.
Place advertises as no freezers, always fresh. Weird part was you ordered at the counter and then chose a table. Not weird for most food...but it was the first time I've had a filet that way. Everything we tried was pretty dang good. Wasn't a big fan of the beans, but that was about it. Snagged one pic of my plate:

@Crazy Carl mentioned a former Mexican buddy (not sure if he's a former Mexican or former buddy) talking about authentic eats. I had the same experience with a coworker from one of our factories in Irapuato.
He mentioned as far as being as close to what he would eat in Mexico, Taco Loko in Rockingham, NC was it, for our small area.
As far as Full Moon is concerned, I do like their potato appetizers, but they really have been hit or miss on the entrees. I'm speaking of the one in southern pines.
I went there last year and loved it.View attachment 129932 Shrimp and grits at Black Pelican in Kitty Hawk.
Shrimp and grits there are great.Thanks for mentioning Full Moon. Everybody raves about it and it’s not far from me at all. Gonna have’ta give it a try.
Sure it wasn't called quadruple?Forgot about this one until I was going through and deleting pics. Morgan Street Food Hall in Raleigh. Evidently the name of the place was Cowbar. I think it was called a quad-something. Yum!

I’d never been to the Foodhall. I’m in Charlotte but my brother is in Raleigh. When I saw it on the menu I had to give it a shot. The seating arrangement is like a food court, but big picnic style tables. So the random group of four sitting next to me just kind of looked over in awe (or maybe disgust) and asked if I actually thought I could eat it.I had 2 arteries close up just looking at the pic, but man it sure looks good!
Wishing you more rough days.
I was there on a Sat night a couple months ago when school was in, the food was great, the sights were even better.Forgot about this one until I was going through and deleting pics.
