I love watching the Food Network. I watch so many shows that inspire me to make ridiculously complicated meals, but I also watch the classics like “Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives” and my new favorite, “Food Paradise”. These shows inspire me to not only travel but try out new places to eat in North Carolina.
You can find plenty of good restaurants in North Carolina, and thanks to the Food Network, everyone knows about them. A team at TVfoodmaps.com has created a list of every restaurant that has appeared on a popular show on the network. As we looked at the top TV North Carolina restaurant choices, we grabbed a plate and sharpened our fork and knife.
You will find a variety of North Carolina restaurants serving everything from barbecue to seafood, and everything in between. Restaurants can be found from Wilmington to Charlotte, from fancy spots in Raleigh to hidden gems in Hickory. Sadly though, some of these favorite spots have permanently closed. We removed those from our list. However, with over 100 different restaurants to choose from, you might want to save room for dessert.
So let’s take a look at ALL the North Carolina restaurants that made the list from being on Food Network shows. Be sure to send us a message if you try out one of these spots. Enjoy!
