Maximillions in Cary off of exit 290. I am stubborn when it comes to restaurants because I am an Executive Chef and I can say that this guy comes up with entrees full of flavor. My wife and I will get an appetizer, salad, entree, wine and maybe a dessert to carry home. We usually spend around 120.00 with tip. Might seem costly but the food and trip is worth it.
Oh, here's another upscale restaurant. Herons at the Umstead hotel in Cary. It's a 4 star restaurant. I've never been, but I've heard good things. http://theumstead-px.trvlclick.com/dining/
