Cary’s destination dining room pairs refined Southern ideas with produce from its own farm, guided by executive chef Steven Devereaux Greene. Frequently praised by Food & Wine and Condé Nast Traveler and featured by Eater Carolinas, it holds a Forbes Five-Star distinction and, in 2025, broadened beyond tasting menus with elegant à la carte options. If you want to taste the region at its most polished, this is the benchmark.
