6 Best Italian Restaurants near Shallotte

“After waiting 20-25 minutes for someone to come to our table to ask if we needed drinks my wife just went and got a pitcher and poured us water. Our waitress (who was great) told us she was double book with tables. When our food finally came my wife's salad was with the rest of her food. By the time she finished her salad her chicken parm was cold. She took a couple bites and couldn't eat it. We took it home and she heated it up and ate it. I got pizza which was fine. The pizza crust at luccas is very good. This was our first time there. Not really sure we will return. I actually felt bad for my wife. She doesn't work there. Lol Also felt bad for our waitress. that is my wife not our waitress“

“My colleague and I ate at Roberto’s 10ish years ago. Not good. So we avoided it and went everywhere else. Tried it again last night. We both could have licked our plates. It was crazy good. Even the olive oil for dipping the bread was insanely delicious. The chef came out to see if our food was ok. Nice vibe.“

“Great classic Italian dishes at reasonable prices and in just-right portions. Pleasant wait-staff and good service also in a reasonable amount of time. It's been a long time since we've found such a great spot and hesitated to write a review since they might not be able to fit us in any more! The music is a bit smarmy ("When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie" and "Dream the impossible dream") but not so loud you can't talk.“

“Excellent service, very cordial staff. Food is unpretentious good solid Italian food. A go to restaurant!“

“Delicious food. We all enjoyed our dishes. We will be back on our next visit to Holden Beach“

“We were delighted with the food (ooh, edamame!) and the service (thanks, Jacob), and the comfortable atmosphere. The menu is broad, everything from the appetizers to the main courses is wonderful, and we felt welcomed. We’ll be back.“
