It's tough to find yummy Italian food in Charlotte. They have awesome old school pizza ovens and their pizza is addictive. Their service is amazing and I love that their hot pastas come with salads. Their greek salad is one of my favorites- large enough for two meals.
Don't miss their homemade dressing. I've heard there are awesome lunch specials so I would check those out plus their discounts for UNCC students. If you are in the University area you know that top notch dining options can be (ahem) challenging and Giacomo's is consistent and high quality stuff made with good old fashioned love.
