10 Best Italian Restaurants near Spencer

“We had Togo the other night. The food was fabulous. It was the best Chicken Marsala I’ve ever had. We all enjoyed everything very much and will be back to dine in. Not to mention the wonderful owners who give back to the community and great staff. Overall a fantastic restaurant.“

“They have great food and great service. I love the pictures on the wall. They also have travia cards on a shelf that runs along the wall. The food proportions are very good and you get your money's worth. I went early before the crowds, but it got busy as I finished my meal.“

“2 thumbs up. A very warm, friendly atmosphere. Beautiful restaurant. Good service, Original food.“

“Located in the heart of Tyro, NC.

Their Greek Salad with grilled chicken and their Chicken Caesar Salad are great. The chicken is marinated, seasoned, and grilled, making it savory and juicy.

Their traditional bone-in Buffalo Wings are excellent. The largest wings I've had so far.

Their Strombolis and Calzones are great. Stuffed with your choice of options and baked golden brown. And a large is large. I can eat two to three meals from each.

Update 23Jun2024: If I get a stromboli from here, it is usually the Steak Special Stromboli. But today, I tried the New York Stromboli with ham, pepperoni, cheese, and other stuff with oregano and other spices on the crust. I can mumble, "WOW!" and "YUM!" But I can't say anymore because my mouth is full.“

“Friendly service, nice environment, variety choice and great good.“

“Had lunch there today - great service and food as always! Best Stromboli in town…Brought desserts home and gotta say, the Strawberry Shortcake Cheesecake …. Best Thing EVER !!!“

“We really enjoyed ourselves. We went during rush hour. We had a 35 min wait for a table of 6. The waitress was sweet and very attentive. The food was hot.. The Zuppa soup had plenty of potatoes. This is what makes the soup. Not the flavored water.It was perfect.“

“Love Chef Santos, great environment and good food.“

“$10!!! $10!!! $10!!! For the lunch buffet, not including drink (their unsweetened tea is so good). When you walk in, the atmosphere is nothing to brag about... its just three little tables and the buffet space. Off to one side is a doorway that leads to another room full of tables and chairs. They have plenty of space. Decent, older (60's/70's) music was playing in the background. The bathrooms are clean and smell ok. The restaurant is clean overall, but could seriously use an update.
The service was good. Two ladies were running the place and they kept my tea glass full. If you order a soft drink, it comes in a can and they are off-brand. When you're finished with one plate, they remove it quickly so the table stays clear. They were really on point and very friendly.
The food. Well. We came late to the party and that's apparently not the thing to do. They open at 11 (close at 3). We got there at 1:45 and a lot of things had been picked over and were already drying out. The two pizza choices (pepperoni and cheese) were so dried out that I would not even try them. The salad bar still looked fresh and the lasagne was out of this world. The spaghetti and meat sauce was delicious. Their meatballs, while small and a little squishy (definitely not homemade) were also pretty tasty. There was a chicken dish that I dove to the bottom to find a piece still covered in sauce and that was decent. They had another meat dish that I tried to find a piece that wasn't dried out and couldn't so I didn't. They also have mixed veggies on the hot bar that were not over cooked. Again, the salad var, while not very expansive, was fresh and very good. There was also a minestrone soup which we did not try.
For the $10, go early! We're definitely going back! They also have a dinner menu, but I'm not sure they're operating that atthe moment. Would definitely recommend this spot if you can eat earlier sorat least by noonish.“

“Ordered from here tonight (called in order) the lady that answered didn't understand me, she handed the phone off to a gentleman and he sounded like ge didn't want to be there. I ordered the Philly cheese steak sub and an Italian sub. Well my Philly sub was plain, but still good. Next time imma ask for it all the “
