Aziza's on Main Restaurant Review

Take two grape leaves and call me in the morning. That could be the motto at this hip, Lebanese-punctuated eatery, named for the family matriarch and ensconced in the clan’s McGuire Park Pharmacy. Co-chef Billy Fallen made his name in food service for his Billy's Bread. He’s since sold the business and teamed at Aziza’s with his mom, Rusty.

A great experience for all to share at the Wright Brothers National Memorial.
Absolutely make the time for the excellent presentation in the museum. Than walk the grounds of Kill Devil Hill. This is where the Ariel Age all began with two brothers who had a bike shop.
