Theo's Italian & Family Restaurant

Traveling from PA, choose this restaurant because it was close to hotel. Excellent food, Allison was our server, she was great. Kept checking on us to be sure everything was good.

Perfect service. Yummy food. Lovely atmosphere.

Been eating there for decades. Not the same vibe and quality of its hay-day, but still an awesome family-friendly Italian restaurant! Buffets are awesome. Menu items are a bit pricey, but are sizeable portions, well-made, with authentic taste - we've never eaten a bad dish there! Even the subs and sandwiches are good. Staff is pleasant and courteous, with small-town allure that me and my wife absolutely love. Highly recommended!

Pizza and fries where amazing service was pretty good too

Theos has an all you can eat salad and pizza bar for weekday lunch. My wife and I ate dinner here after a movie, I got a club sandwich and fries and she ordered a small pizza. Our waitress Pebbles was doing several jobs including helping out in the kitchen because the restaurant was busy and they were short handed. It took over thirty minutes to get our food because a large group sitting on the patio had just turned in their orders in front of us.

The food was really good and the service was excellent.

The most amazing wings ever! The special sauce is out of this world

The sauce tasted like basic jar sauce. The eggplant parm was soggy. The antipasta salad was serverly lacking.

Apparently Theo’s is a popular local restaurant. We were passing through and searched for a good restaurant and Theo’s seemed to fit the bill. The atmosphere was good for the type of restaurant it is, family oriented. It was not noisy and easy to hear one another. The server was attentive and nice. My only complaint was my dinner. I ordered the Veal Parmigiania. The sauce was a bit watery and difficult due to the large portion size not to spill the liquid off of the plate. The veal unfortunately was very tough. I couldn’t tell if it was overcooked and made it tough or if it was cooked very quickly from frozen. Unfortunately I could not eat it. My son ate the Shrimp Alfredo dish and he said it was good.
I would like to say I would definitely try Theo’s again. Just not the veal. We all have our ups and downs and down days and maybe this was just a down day for the veal.

My brother and I were visiting the area for the first time. First impressions: the interior design is beautiful and feels like something straight out of Italy. I love the murals on the wall and the Roman statues. However, the music was quite awful, mainly pop and what sounded like 80s tunes, not something I’d want to hear in an Italian restaurant. It kind of ruined the atmosphere.
I must give a shout out to our waitress who was probably the sweetest server I’ve ever encountered, but I can’t remember her name at this point. :( A young lady with long blonde hair in braids. She was trying so hard to make sure we were taken care and satisfied with everything. I would return just because of her exceptional service.
As for the food, my brother ordered vegetable lasagna and I the shrimp scampi. The lasagna was delicious. But my shrimp scampi had no lemon or garlic flavor whatsoever, it was just extremely greasy pasta with shrimp. I honestly felt sick after eating most of it. It tasted like the chef didn’t try. Shrimp scampi is usually my favorite dish, so for $18, this was a real let down. Even the garlic bread that came with our meals was gross. It tasted like a store bought cheap loaf of white bread with some butter and seasonings slapped on the outside. The excellent service made up for the food, and I am willing to go back and give Theo’s a second try. But as an Italian myself, it’s painfully obvious that this place is run by Carolinians and not Italians

Come for the delicious Italian food with great prices and portion sizes and if that isn’t enough to wow you, ask to be seated in Aiden’s section. This young man is a credit to this establishment and his parents. He is exceptionally polite, and takes pride in his job. It shows in his attitude and service. We will definitely be back and hopefully get seated in his section. Maybe that’s the owners and managers level of expectation for all the employees? I saw nothing but happy smiling diners!
