Bombolo

Restaurant · Chapel Hill

"Perhaps one of the most intriguing restaurants to open in the Triangle in years (and Eater's North Carolina Restaurant of the Year for 2023), Bombolo breaks the mold in very, very good ways. Brother and sister owners chef Garrett Fleming and Eleanor Lacy took the idea of a cozy Italian bistro and turned it on its head. Sure, there are homemade pastas and handcrafted meatballs, but there’s also a halibut khao soi, Hokkaido-style Scallops, and poblano peppers stuffed with duck and cheese. The signature Bombolo dessert, invented by Lacy, is a crunchy chocolately gift that is not to be missed." - Matt Lardie
