As the MICHELIN Guide is set to visit NC and we’re asking for your local expert opinion on where to dine in the City of Oaks.

We wouldn’t be surprised if MICHELIN Inspectors paid the 2025 James Bear Award semi-finalist Figulina a visit.

Have you heard? The MICHELIN Guide announced its expansion into the South, including North Carolina, as part of its upcoming MICHELIN Guide American South issue.

As a matter of fact, the MICHELIN Guide’s anonymous inspectors are already scouting restaurants, making dining reservations in search of unique + diverse culinary gems throughout the region. And if they’ve arrived in Raleigh, we know the options are plentiful.

The MICHELIN Guide has come a long way from its 1900s inception as a little red destination book. Today, the guide prioritizes fine dining restaurants, but this Southern tour marks an opportunity for the acknowledgment of prestigious culinary spots in a new setting.

Insert: Raleigh foodies with hearty opinions. Which local eateries would you nominate to be included in the MICHELIN guide? We want to know what Raleigh restaurants you think would be a shoe-in, so we created an online form to hear your thoughts + local expertise.
