Such a beautiful spot for dinner. From the second we walked on the porch, we were greeted and taken care of the whole time. Lovely spot. Cocktails, appetizers and main courses were exquisite.

We've always loved this restaurant, and dinner is usually excellent. Unfortunately, this visit was a bit disappointing. I ordered the Frutti di Mare, which was just reintroduced to the fall menu, but it was overly salty—I couldn't even finish half of it. Hoping dessert would make up for it, I ordered a cannoli (because who doesn't love a good cannoli?), but that too missed the mark. The filling lacked flavor, and the shell was unfortunately one of the least enjoyable I've had. That said, our server Kelli was absolutely wonderful—warm, personable, and thoroughly professional. We truly love the staff here, and their consistent kindness and attentiveness are a big part of why we continue to return. I'm hopeful this was just an off night and look forward to coming back soon.

Lovely place for an upscale dinner. We went to celebrate an anniversary. The food was excellent. Very good service and the atmosphere was just right gor a special Occasion. Everyone was friendly and helpful. Highly recommend and can't wait to go back. Best veal Marsala I've ever had!

Having moved from Pinehurst, we had not been to Villagio since the Resort took it over. The investments they made to improve the entire Magnolia Inn, and the interior of the Villagio Restaurant are excellent. The quality of the food has not changed from our previous experience and was very good. Kelli, our server, was outstanding.

Service was exceptional. Very quiet for the size. Noise level depends on drunk golfers. Food was exceptional, very large portions.

The food was very good, the service was a bit slow as it was a full house. The drinks were also slow. But the food was worth going back. Lasagna was good, Ceasar salad, branzino, steak and veal were the dishes our table ordered and all very good.

Beautiful restaurant with the best welcoming staff and service! We ordered the chef's special, my husband had the meat cut, which was slightly overcooked, while I had the shrimp ravioli, I have to admit it was not my favorite. For desert we had the cheesecake, it was delicious! It was a pleasant first time experience, and we'll be back to try the traditional pasta dishes!

My wife and I ate here last year while visiting Pinehurst and on our return from Maine back to our home in South Carolina, we decided to spend the night in Pinehurst and visit this restaurant once again. We were not disappointed! I enjoyed their special ravioli with shrimp and a nice white sauce and my wife had lasagna which she said was excellent. It was a huge portion and we’re bringing some home. Our waitress Kelly could not have been nicer. When she heard we were going to soon be celebrating our 53rd anniversary she brought us a card from the management and staff and a nice mango sorbet. Great restaurant great staff. I’m happy to recommend.

I just moved back to Montgomery County after 38 years in South Florida with my wife. This was our 15th anniversary. There were many places to go in South Florida but nothing in Montgomery County. I searched Moore County and found Villaggio Ristorante. We arrived 30 minutes before our reservation and were seated immediately. It was a nice quiet atmosphere and the food was excellent. The waitress even brought us ice cream after our meal the celebrate our anniversary.

Best food ever and best service ever! I don't think I have ever experience such great service before in my life

Great restaurant, so good that the group of guys I came on my golf trip insisted we eat there two nights in a row. Food was amazing, great atmosphere, and Gary (F) made us feel like royalty. When I come back to the area, I will definitely be going for a 3rd maybe a 7th time, depending how long I stay. One last thing, you can go off menu (as long as it isn't too crazy) and they can make it very well, fresh, because it's all in house.

We were very excited bc the menu looked great. We started with the meatball and burrata starters. We are meatball snobs and have never found restaurant meatballs better than mine but we all agreed these were good. For entrees we had the branzino, the pesto pasta, and the lobster ravioli. First, all were served cold. The branzino was nothing like the menu described and after one bite I was done. It was awful. The pesto pasta was overly garlicky and the lobster ravioli may have been good if it wasn't so cold. After the fiasco of entrees we opted out of dessert. Also worth mentioning is that two of the bottles of wine we ordered they didn't even have. We would not go here again.

We truly enjoyed our date night at the Villaggio. We were seated at the best table for two and had the privacy and view from the window. The food was great, but the calamari were outstanding. Highly recommend 👍🏻.
