8 Best Restaurants in Cary, North Carolina | Eater Carolinas

"The restaurant inside the Mayton transformed a few years ago when local developers joined forces to save the boutique hotel from bankruptcy. The investment resulted in a restaurant that would draw diners on its own, but it happens to be adjacent to the new downtown Cary Park, with a covered patio serving the views. The renovation included overhauling the aesthetics, like adding colorful custom wallpaper that ties back to the park. It’s a solid all-day dining option for Southern-inspired favorites like fried green tomatoes and peel-and-eat shrimp with a dynamic modern American menu for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, plus a weekend brunch (don’t miss the indulgent smoked salmon scrambled eggs with brie in a pastry shell)." - Sarah Day Owen Wiskirchen
