“I wanted to really love this place but it fell a bit short. I'm not giving up on it just yet as there may still be hope for some dishes, maybe I just didn't order the right things. I must admit the octopus carpaccio was pretty good, after adding some much needed acid to peak the flavor. The lobster ravioli left a bit to be desired. I had hoped for pieces of lobster in the sauce, as they serve in a few other fine dining Italian restaurants, but that was not the case. The ravioli were filled with something that I suppose was ground seafood of some type, but there was no way of confirming just what it was. It could be any type of ground seafood, but certainly did not taste like lobster. Also, I'm a tiramisu fanatic, and this one was just ok. I did enjoy the bread service with really unique oil and vinegar bottles of various types. This was really the highlight of my meal. Service was reasonably good. I'll give it another chance before casting final judgment.Vegetarian options: Several vegetarian options and some vegan.Dietary restrictions: They will accommodate special dietary needsParking: Limited street parking. Additional parking in small lots a block or two away.“

“They have a wide selection of pasta dishes with different sauces to choose from. Always satisfied with the taste, presentation, and quantity. The bruschetta could have used a bit more pizzazz. And the lights could have been dimmer for the evening dinner crowd.“

“This has been my favorite local (Mooresville) restaurant for some time now and just had another great meal on St. Patrick's Day with the family! Wanted to thank the staff for such great service once again. Angelica was great! We asked Hanna if she could make a Black & Tan for this special day and she gave it a try. Not easy to do but she didn't give up and came through! Thanks Hanna! You're the best. Looking for great food, awesome service, and a great place with friends or family? Mi Amiche is the place!“

“If you have had dinner at an authentic Italian restaurant in the Northeast, all professional wait staff, real Italian cuisine - Caruso's is that place here in Mooresville. Hands down, best Italian food and service outside NY/NJ. Fuggetaboutit! And the best kept little secret, children are not allowed! Brilliant!“

“I’ve eaten here twice! The pizza is off the charts delicious! Best in town, by far! Took my son tonight and he loved it. Great wings! I saw some post complaint about paying 40 bucks for a large pep pizza, a salad, and two drinks. Come on people, this restaurant uses fresh ingredients, not garbage. It’s gonna cost a bit more than lil ceasars. His prices are in line with other independent pizza shops that have fresh ingredients. Let’s support this place Statesville!“

“In my three visits so far, I have had excellent food and service. The staff provides excellent customer service and they are always welcoming. My family has dietary restrictions and they informed me that we could bring our own cheese for a gluten free/dairy free pizza. It was very good and my family really enjoyed it. Their red sauce is very good. They offer more than just pizza too. I have eaten in the dining room twice and had take out once. I highly recommend this restaurant and it will become a staple for our family.Dietary restrictions: They offer gluten free and dairy free options.Kid-friendliness: It's a family friendly environment. I brought my young kids and they loved it.“

“The food was great, service outstanding. The only problem was the man at te table behind my wife and myself talked so loud I had to take out my hearing ausid and still was loud. Told my wife we are going to leave I could not take his is rudeness his loudness & no concideration for other people trying to enjoy a great meal.“

“They've impressed me a couple of times. I didn't think I would like this place. It turned out to be not bad at all. Could use a bigger parking lot tho, I guess you could park at Food Lion. The service wasn't bad, either. All in all the three times I've been, I get it.“

“The food was good, staff was nice. The paper menu insert inside the covered menus was pretty gross. I didn't even want to touch it. They got our order wrong. Not the best ambiance but it was an okay dinner. The sauce was fresh.Dietary restrictions: They had gluten-free pasta which is awesome“

“Love going here for the atmosphere and food but I don't understand the wait times, when they seem to be staffed, and the table placement of not such a great spot especially when other nicer table locations are available.Parking: Often have to park in an overflow dirt area.“

“We were going to go to the Mexican restaurant right across the plaza but it was slam full on a Tuesday around 6 at night. Surprised, we saw Vesuvio's and decided to give it a chance instead of wait.We had some bread with balsamic, olive oil and spices which was delicious according to the wife. I ate none of it so I'll take her word for it, and she loves her crusty but soft inside bread. She got a child's portion of the Chicken Alfredo, which was as good as any we've had before.I had a bowl of Chicken Spinach Soup and decided to roll the dice on the Chicken Marsala, and it all hit the spot. Soup delivered for what it said it was. The Marsala though, was sweet and savory with the provolone and parmesan adding a slight saltiness. It was served with spaghetti, which was well cooked, but I can't help but think it would have been better with mashed potatoes. I'd still order it again because it was some of the best I've had.Restaurant is quaint and cozy with very nice servers who are for the most part attentive. We had no complaints on the whole.“

“Love love live this place. Wish I knew it was here before I found it accidentally. The staff is amazing. The food more amazing. The only area I would improve would be a smart TV so we could stream sports. We would be here all the time. Scottie at the bar made the best sangria I ever had and Vicky was the most pleasant person and so friendly, making us not want to leave.“

“I could tell immediately when i walked in there was experience here.We did a to go order for two pizzas and they were not quite done yet, over the phone they said it would be ready at 5:30pm and i was handed two pizzas at literally 5:30. Bang on.I love that they opened the oven and knew how much longer to the tee. Its worth the money here, its good pizza.“

“It's strange to say but this was the best experience I've had at an olive garden. The service was so friendly, the manager was friendly, and the food was good. It's a chain so you know what food you're getting. The only difference is the service and cleanliness and this location was the best. I think our waitress was named Whitney and she was great!“

“New to mooresville. Tried for first time. Tried pizza and 2 subs for family. Was not ready when i got there but done in 2 minutes. Staff was friendly. Food well liked by all. Small dinning room so be prepared to take home. Will eat here again.“

“Love that Pie in the Sky found a new permanent home! And absolutely love what they did with - wait for it... an old dry cleaners place! I love being able to order on ChowNow & it be ready when I arrive. I was told they have their own app coming soon, so I'm excited about that! Their single slices or regular sized pizzas always turn out great! My favorite order is ground beef & mushroom, thin crust. You can do make your own or they have specialized pizzas. Also, you can get salads & subs, here. Prices are reasonable. Friendly employees.“

“My son and I tried the specials of the day, spinach and shrimp with penne Alfredo and salmon with mustard and dill sauce. Both were delishous.Brushetta appetizer had a good flavor just missing the mozzarella.Wheelchair accessibility: Easy to access. Plenty of room for wheelchairs.“

“Johnny Brusco's in Mooresville is a slice of New York right in North Carolina. Their **hand-tossed pizzas** are a crowd-pleaser, topped with **fresh, quality ingredients** and a perfect golden crust. The **housemade dinners** and **craft beers** add to the authentic experience. With **friendly service** and a cozy atmosphere, it's a local favorite for Italian cuisine. Whether it's for a family dinner or a quick bite, Johnny Brusco's delivers satisfaction.??“

“When I first when to Rocco’s it was a new experience for me. When I enter to Rocco’s I was met with the most happy environment and most friendly environment I ever seen, the boss over there is one of the most friendly guys in there. About food wise I like their dessert, their cheesecake is like no other soo creamy. I love their salad most importantly the one with brochute. I gotta say drink wise I love the way they do the shots. I like their margaritas pizza. They have a variety of pizza toppings and I like that. If you guys ever past thru Rocco’s you will not disappoint.“

“This was/is my go to place when I lived in/near Statesville. We went today to visit family to eat here. The food, still like I remember it. Still very good and about the best Italian place around. The wait staff, very few if any good things to say about them. Our waitress did not even want a table for one ( I know this because on the way to the restroom the one that sat us told them she had a table. She promptly said NO I DON'T WANT A TABLE) we were the only ones there at the moment (3pm Saturday afternoon) The waiter that took us was very short with us about everything. It was like he was not wanting to be there either. The service felt very rushed every time they came it was all you could do to get his attention to get drinks or silverware or even the check and Togo boxes. The bread brought out looked/ tasted old. Just not very good service at all. The food makes it worth the trip but the service is the reason for the review. All the staff looked miserable or they just flat out, didn't want to be there.“
