Now open everyday for Summer 2026!North Carolina native, award-winning chef, and New York Times best-selling author Vivian Howard opened her latest culinary concept, Theodosia, at The Sanderling Resort! Every element of this new dining destination will reflect the culture and history of the Outer Banks, creating a connection to a distinctive place and time.Named for Theodosia Burr—daughter of the infamous Aaron Burr, wife of South Carolina Governor Joseph Alston, and the subject of centuries-old folklore about a ship lost at sea near the Outer Banks—Theodosia will evoke mystery and intrigue. The waterfront setting invites guests to ponder her fate as she journeyed from SC to NY in the early 19th century.The dining room features rich, feminine textures, soft lighting, and views of the Currituck Sound’s endless horizon. The menu celebrates the region’s salt marshes and fishing heritage, blending tradition with Howard’s signature innovative Southern cuisine.

Welcome to Proof AKA Paradiso, where we fulfill our promise to serve unforgettable food—dishes unlike what you can make at home or find elsewhere in Elizabeth City. Our culinary journey began with a simple focus on homemade pasta and crafting all our own pizza and bread dough from scratch. Today, that commitment remains: all our doughs are made fresh daily, and every entree is made to order, guaranteeing the highest quality and flavor in every dish.For us, food is an artistic medium. We thoughtfully blend textures, flavors, and colors, with our menu constantly evolving with the seasons. We take pride in supporting our community by ensuring most of our offerings are locally-sourced, featuring the freshest ingredients from local farmers. This creative approach has led to unique touches, such as infusing our homemade doughs with seasonal vegetables like beet, pumpkin, and spinach.

    An absolutely stunning meal! Truly one of those dining experiences that stays with you long after you've left. The food was superb from start to finish. Every dish was beautifully prepared, thoughtfully composed, and perfectly seasoned. You can really feel the care and intention behind the food, and there wasn't a single thing on our table that we didn't love. My mom had reached out ahead of our reservation to request a table by the windows, and the team was so gracious in accommodating us. We ended up with one of those gorgeous sound-side seats, perfectly timed to watch the sunset over the water, making an already wonderful evening feel downright magical. And the service was every bit as wonderful as the food. Our server was warm, knowledgeable, and genuinely attentive, steering us toward all the best dishes without ever being pushy. Just that lovely, effortless kind of hospitality that makes you feel completely at ease. It was our last evening in the Outer Banks, and what a beautiful way to end the trip. Just a really special experience all around. Thank you to everyone at Theodosia for such a memorable evening. We're already looking forward to coming back next season!
