Talk about atmosphere. This gem of a restaurant is located IN Five County Baseball Stadium just off highways 64 and 264 in Zebulon. Being a baseball fan, I went to check out a game and was told I could watch the game in AC and have a great meal. The restaurant is situated just over the first base line with a great view of the field. During the season you're given the option of stadium seating with a game/bar menu or table seating with a full dinner menu. Menu items range from lamb to shrimp and grits to mahi mahi - not your typical Zebulon fare. It's definitely worth a trip from the Triangle. Make reservations on game days. Cattails is also open during the offseason and the experience is just as good. Because it's still relatively undiscovered, you can almost always be seated immediately when there isn't a game, even on the weekends. Chef Chris is a genius and the staff is friendly and attentive. I'm there at least twice a week.
Pros: preferred free parking on game days, service
Cons: have to purchase a game ticket to enter the restaurant during home games
