Food scene
The BEST sushi in Durham. Shipments of fish from Japan come in every day. Be sure to get a reservation in advance. I recommend sitting at the sushi bar and watching the chef's make their art! Check out the other M Restaurants while you're here: M Pocha, M Kokko, and M Tempura.

Great for dinner or just cocktails and appetizers. Their version of a manhattan is one of my favorites. This is a great spot to grab a drink before a show at the DPAC as it's about a 5 minute walk away from the theater.

Outdoor picnic tables, pizza, dogs, and beers- what's not to love? I love their IPA. You can purchase their canned beers as well. This is a great spot to enjoy a beer outside on a nice day.

There are many vendors to choose from inside this downtown food hall! Vendors range from coffee and desserts to fresh fish and Italian food. My personal favorite is to get a pizza and salad from Napoli and eat it at the center bar while sipping on a delicious cocktail or glass of wine.

The best Italian food in Durham! Their brother restaurant, Mateo's, is right next door and is a tapas menu. I would recommend going with someone who wants to share plates, so you can try multiple things!
