Authentic Nepali, Pakistani, and Indian food. The family that owns this restaurant is from Nepal, and also own an import store that is amazing as well. The ambiance is authentic Nepal, with hand carved wood furniture and prayer flags and fountains. Having been to Nepal, this brings me back home every time. *Melissa's Favorite Brunch available, dinner by menu. Wine bar next door with live music as well!

Drinks & Nightlife

Our favorite winery. Pets welcome. Try some of NC's best wines. We got married here last September. Come visit Jennifer for a tour of the vines and stay for some farm to table food on weekends. Live music schedule on most weekends as well! Pack a blanket for a picnic, or use a table. Wander through the vines and have a wonderful time! Red wine drinkers, rose drinkers, and chardonnay drinkers are in luck here!
