Food is fine for the price in Corolla. Not a fan of a company that says we don't do to-go orders early in the evening. Strange business plan for a company to turn away customers.

Food was very good. The rosemary bread appetizer was tasty. Chicken parm portion is large and very delicious. Crab & shrimp penne alla vodka was fantastic. Our waiter was friendly and very polite.

I called for carryout at 4 on 9/13/25. I placed an order for 3 gourmet pizzas, but asked if we could pick them up at 5 or 5:30. He said we’d have to call back. I called back at 5:30 and he said the cutoff was 5. Why didn’t he tell me this when I called originally? I really liked this restaurant in past summers. I’d focus the fault on the guy who picked up the carryout phone both times. Plus his attitude wasn’t pleasant. We ordered 3 pizzas from Bernie’s Brother across the street instead. They gladly took our order, charged less, and they were ready at their stated time.

Large serving sizes, great service, and my cocktail tasted strong! Seems like it's always busy so call before you go.

Great Italian restaurant in Corolla! Mozzarella sticks and salad for appetizers did not disappoint! For dinner, ordered the chicken Parm, zita with sausage, and chicken Alfredo. Portions so large was able to take over half home! The dishes were very classic Italian tasting meals . What would have made this perfect was a side starter salad and bread to be included with the meal. Spent about $225 for the four of us, including tip, but if you want delicious food with great service and atmosphere, it's worth the money. Suggest call ahead seating as the wait during the week was an hour.

This review is based solely on the fact that they say they don’t take reservations but are booked 2 1/2 hours before they close. Just make it make sense take reservations or don’t that’s all I ask

The food was to die for! Some of the best Italian I’ve ever eaten. Just make sure you make a reservation as the wait can be long but it’s sooo worth it!
This place is great. Service (both hostesses and waiters) was friendly, professional, and efficient and the food was not just good but had true depth and flavor. Whoever is running the kitchen / recipes is a true chef. Pizza was airy and crispy at the same time & the lobster ravioli was in a sauce that had such great sherry flavor. It really seemed like everyone worked as a team - when our waiter was busy for a minute, the bartender brought drinks over himself. The tiramisu we took home for dessert was wonderful as well and it was great experience.

When seeking Italian cuisine in the northern outer banks, this is the place to go! Modern elegant decor, decent service, satisfying meal.
Family of 4 had bread (the olive oil & basil dip was delightful, and cheese sticks (cheese pull over an arm’s length!) for appetizers, two glasses of wine and two sodas (standard) and four pasta based entrees (shrimp al limone, veal parmesan, and two chicken fettuccine alfredo) for just over $200
Pasta was fresh and perfectly cooked. Chicken with the Alfredo was over-seasoned and the al limone sauce was lackluster but shrimp were spot on (according to a teenager). Veal was perfect and the chunky marinara was spectacular!
Overall, would go again and everyone left happy & full!
Salads or sides do NOT come with the entree and must be ordered separately.

So extremely disappointed. We called around 315 and they told us they didn’t do reservations. Called again at five and they let us know their next table was at 7:15 PM. Really confused on how that works when they don’t do reservations. Would had our name added to the list when we called at 3:15 if we knew this was the case very very very disappointed. We left the beach early, we changed our whole entire day to make sure we would be calling and going to this place. Definitely do not recommend this place just based off of the unprofessionalism and miscommunication on their literal recording system when you call and when you speak to the person and you call.
Definitely needs to be better communicated because it sounds like they do do reservations. You just have to call and be put on a list in order for the reservations. Would’ve had our name added when we called at 3:15 like stated.

Did not eat here but website should be changed. It currently says:
First come, first served with 30-minute call ahead seating starting at 3pm. If there is no wait, we will hold your table for up to 30 minutes, otherwise you will be added to the waitlist & we’ll let you know the approximate time we can seat you.
When we called they said they are all booked for the night we called at 4:40 she said people start calling at 3pm for the table. So I would just call when they opened and don't pay attention to the website

Really top notch Italian in the OBX. They have call ahead seating, and were easily able to accommodate our party of 7. Service was fast and friendly. Great salad menu. I thoroughly enjoyed the lobster ravioli and the Italian Onion Soup.
