Maybe if we dined in the food would be better but it definitely didn’t taste AUTHENTIC I know those meatballs were not homemade but it’s cool not worth 18 dollars

My fiancé and I ordered takeout for an at-home date night and we could not be more ecstatic about finding this place. As two transplants from Boston, this was the first time Italian food has made us this happy since we’ve moved to Charleston. We cannot wait to order again!

Just had dinner at Fabio's. Best Italian food in Charleston since we left New York!! Off menu special Osso Buco was fabulous (according to husband). I had the eggplant parmigiana. Wonderful. Delicious Home made focaccia with great olive oil and a tomato bruschetta with a melted cheese surprise started us off. Another hit---tiramisu dessert. All the right flavors and texture. Thank you Carlo for the history and what makes Fabio's work in Low Country. Congratulations and thank you Fabio for bringing an authentic Italian food experience to the area. Will spread the word and be back often!!

The texture of fresh housemade pasta is so different from factory made. If you appreciate homemade Italian food, this is a hidden gem!

Btw before you read this review if your planing on taking someone to this place for a date definitely do it, lil pricy but it gives off a romantic setting.So to start it off the food was great, I ordered the lasagna and my friend ordered the duck confit. The lasagna had lots of noodles sheets and the meat sauce was delicious it was cheesy and wasn't sure to meaty so you could taste all the flavors 8/10 not 10/10 since the portion size was small if I didn't eat the bread and get a appetizer I probably would of still been hungry. Now the reason it's 4 stars not 5, the food is great it's clean Inside the workers are nice and friendly and can even give you a good laugh, but the price...... I understand it's a small business and things will be more expensive but the food portion should match it, I think overall the main courses (pasta) should be 3-6 dollars cheaper or there could more noodles or sauce given. And the meatballs since it's just meatballs no pasta should be 3 dollars cheaper and the appetizer like a 2-4 dollars cheaper. Overall food was great friendly place would go again!!Parking: The parking is right outside the restaurant but not a lot of spots

Good menu at good prices! Good service and cozy. The place is worth the visit! Get the penne a la vodka. The red wine was tasty and affordable. I look forward to my next visit! Excellent food and service!

So I have been driving by this place for 5 years and always said to myself that I need to try it. Big mistake, I should have tried it years ago! We started off with the brushcetta app. I love when they have mozzarella cheese on them and this one did and it didn't disappoint (if you don't like cheese on it then I would skip it). I would go back and back again just for this. Wife had eggplant parm and absolutely loved it. I am not a fan of eggplant but the spaghetti that came with was awesome, loved their sauce. I had the ricotta gnocchi. I am not a fan of regular gnocchi and have always wanted to try the ricotta one. I have to say i am not a fan of thi stype of gnocchi either and I don't want to knock them just because i didn't like the gnocchi. Once again the sauce was awesome. We finished with the tiramisu. Very tasty but I wasn't blown away with it. Overall, it is now going to be on our restaurant rotation.

I'm very surprised. Good surprised. But this was good! We tried the tagliatelle with duck and mushrooms (barely any duck fyi) but the flavor was perfect! And so was the pasta. The rigatoni with beef was also excellent. Finally a casual Italian place that doesn't skimp on flavor! The food was better than most establishments downtown. Tiramisu was decent - nothing to rave about The arancini were also decent. I can appreciate that they were cooked all the way (my pet peeve is when people don't fry/ reheat something properly) Picky person approved. Stop by in your way back from magnolia gardens.

Fabio's is some of the best pasta I have had in a long time! It may not be fancy on the outside or in, but the food here is absolutely incredible and should not be missed out on. Both pasta dishes we got were delicious, and we also got the Bruschetta to start. Our server was very knowledgeable and attentive which added greatly to the experience. For the food, price, and portions Fabio's will become a regular spot f
