Excellent freshly prepared food with on point seasoning. Enjoy their clean and polite dog friendly patio, with friendly and quick servers.

This is best Italian spot in the county. Been going for years and my husband and I come for every special occasion. The pasta is insanely fresh, and the prices are fair for the quality of product delivered. Hoping they are here for countless years to come.

The homemade Italian cuisine was exceptional. Generous portions were thoughtfully presented and accompanied by warm, house-made sourdough bread with a wonderfully delicate, melt-in-your-mouth texture. An experience that is truly worth both your time and will make your family/friends happy.

Overall very high quality food. Fried meatballs tasted good a touch on the dry and firm side texture wise. Possibly too much breading in the mix or slightly overcooked. Arugula salad was fresh and the dressing was nice. A touch on the sweet side. Pizza Pappa had some real heat in the peppers so it was great. My veal Milanese is well prepared and a bit different than traditional. They didn’t pound the fillet and the coating is slightly less crispy. Still very enjoyable. The arugula again was very fresh. I would suggest they serve some lemon slices with it. A drizzle of fresh lemon juice really brings out the flavors. The waiter Brandon did oblige us with a few slices so all is well. Coffee chocolate chip gelato is excellent. Surprisingly notable is their private label Chianti. $12/glass but tasted superb. The walls were decorated with artwork by the proprietor’s wife and added quite a bit of ambiance. Well done

The food was absolutely outstanding—truly the highlight of our evening. Every dish was flavorful, well-prepared, and clearly made with care. You can tell the kitchen takes pride in what they do.
The atmosphere was nice overall, though a bit cramped for us since we were seated in a small corner nook. That aside, we were still enjoying ourselves.
Unfortunately, our experience with our waiter fell short. We often felt like an inconvenience to him when asking for basic items, and being tucked away in the corner seemed to result in us being forgotten more than once. It took away from what could have been an otherwise excellent evening.

Great food, great service (ask for Brandon!).
We had the Porcini Ravioli (amazing sauce) and the Shrimp Scampi, and both were amazing. The bread is great, and so was the wine that Brandon recommended with our food.
Tiramisu was good - a very cream-cheesy top to it - as was the espresso.

My Husband and I ate there last evening. We both had the Veal Parm. It was delicious! You got a ton of food. My Husband's only wish was the veal would have been pounded thinner. Would definitely have this again! Plenty of leftovers for tonight. My only complaint is; the music was WAY too loud. It was hard to have a conversation with the music blasting. Also, as an Italian myself, would love to hear Italian music, it would make the mood much nicer and calmer than the rock music that was being played. Thank you!

Lisi is a surprisingly good Italian restaurant in Pinehurst, an area not traditional known for this type of food. Lisi features good menu selections, well-curated wine list and a cozy atmosphere. The food here would not be out of place in a NY area Italian eatery.

Lisi Italiano is great place for a delicious Italian meal and the service is excellent. The atmosphere is lively so, for a quiet dinner you may need to take advantage of their outside seating.
