Raleigh's culinary scene is buzzing with excitement as three highly anticipated dining spots have opened their doors this year, offering incredible food, views and decor. These new restaurants, located in different Raleigh neighborhoods, are perfect for group events, corporate meetings or special celebrations.

Planning tip: Due to their popularity, reservations are highly recommended. It's best to book several weeks in advance, especially if you and/or your group plans to visit more than one of these restaurants during your stay.

 

Tamasha Modern Indian Kitchen

Opened in the Park District of North Hills in February, Tamasha Modern Indian Kitchen offers an unforgettable culinary experience. Founded by entrepreneurs Mike Kathrani and Tina Vora, Tamasha, meaning "a great performance" in Hindi, provides a chic, high-energy ambiance with modern Indian cuisine and a touch of "gastronomic illusion."

Chef Bhavin Chhatwani, with experience at San Francisco's Taj Campton Place and Adaa in Hyderabad, India, brings high-end culinary expertise to Tamasha. The restaurant, designed by owner Tina Vora, was recently named among the most beautiful restaurants in America by OpenTable.

 

Brodeto

Chef Scott Crawford, a six-time James Beard Award nominee, opened Brodeto in the Raleigh Iron Works district in late March. Inspired by the Adriatic coast, Brodeto serves its namesake dish—a brothy mix of monkfish, prawns, octopus and more—alongside lighter, shareable dishes like crudos, salads and hand-crafted breads.

House-made pasta options, such as the spaghetti al nero with sea urchin butter, are standout features. Desserts, including hazelnut gelato and olive oil cake, are must-tries. Brodeto is the third Raleigh restaurant by Chef Crawford, following the success of Crawford and Son and Jolie.

 

La Terrazza Raleigh

Samad Hachby, owner of Mulino in downtown Raleigh, brings a new rooftop dining experience with La Terrazza. Located on the ninth floor, this restaurant offers stunning views and a fusion of Italian and Mediterranean cuisines.

The crudo, pizza, house-made pastas and two large bars (one inside and one on the patio) make it perfect for group events. La Terrazza, in the Warehouse District, sets a new standard for dining experiences in Raleigh.

 

These new dining spots are not just about the food—they offer unique experiences that can enhance any group event or meeting in Raleigh!
