Best Cozy Restaurants Around Raleigh, Durham, Cary | Eater Carolinas

"Try to snag one of the high-backed booths for dinner for the ultimate intimate cozy dining experience. This is definitely a special occasion spot — expect to pay over $100 a person — but for those looking for a high-quality steak and to feel like they’re in a swanky New York spot versus one in downtown Raleigh, the experience is unparalleled. Start with the roasted bone marrow with bacon mustard jam and the Something Blue cocktail, which is made with basil and lemongrass gin and topped with prosecco foam. Then, move on to an expertly seared steak and a glass of wine from the extensive wine list." - Elliott Harrell
