The 220 Café
$$$$•American•5(499)The 220 Café is a Contemporary American Cuisine restaurant, located in the historic district of downtown Statesville, NC.
The 220 Café provides a fine dining experience and atmosphere for all of our guests. With a combination of class and elegance, the 220 Café also exudes a “stop by anytime” welcome to the restaurant.Seaboy
$$$$•Seafood•5(1,049)Seaboy is the first solo venture from chef and owner Jonathan Cox, built from a simple idea: create the kind of place we’d want to eat at ourselves. We love great seafood, interesting ingredients, good wine, and hospitality that feels genuine rather than rehearsed. Our menu moves with the seasons and gives our kitchen room to cook what’s fresh and exciting.
Seaboy was always meant to be small and personal—a cozy neighborhood restaurant where we can pay attention to the little things and really care about what leaves the kitchen. Nothing too complicated. Just really good food, a comfortable room, and a team that loves what we do.
