This is our new go-to place for Italian. This makes me so happy because I really wanted to like the previous restaurant that was in this spot, but we really weren't fans. We love supporting local business and to not have to drive out of Waxhaw is an added bonus.
We have tried several items on the menu, but we have our favorites. I am in love with their Eggplant Parm, my husband's go-to is the Rigatoni with Sausage, and we both love the Arancini appetizer. The chicken parm is also delicious. I have to give a special shout-out for the side pasta that comes with the eggplant and chicken parm dishes. Typically, the side pasta is just a toss-away item for me. I eat a few bites of it because it comes with it, but I don't really give it much thought. That is NOT the case here. I don't know what type of magic they sprinkle in it, but it is absolutely delicious!
The service is always very friendly and the menu has something for everyone. The decor is very nice and they have a full bar, too.
The only reasons why I can't give them 5 stars is because the layout of the entrance is a bit odd so a couple of times were have stood there waiting for someone to notice us and it was a bit awkward. We also find the service to be pretty slow most of the time. Super friendly, but nonetheless....slow.
