Absolutely a disgrace to Italian food.

Update: I attended their soft opening of their dining room! It was a beautiful setting with a warm rustic feel. The food I tried was excellent. Stuffed mushrooms and Sauerbraten. You can definitely tell that a lot of time and effort were put into these authentic dishes. The wait staff was very well prepared for an opening night. I’m really looking forward to coming back here regularly!

The food here is delicious and for our appetites, perfectly portioned. We liked everything we ordered, the eggplant lasagna and the shrimp pesto pasta but felt the tiramisu could do much better. Overall it was a lovely dining experience.

Everything was delicious, from the tapenade to the bee sting cake. I ordered the chicken piccata for my main course, which was tender and perfectly seasoned. I usually don’t like pasta, but, I ate every bite of the penne because it was seasoned perfectly with lemon and herbs! It was an enjoyable anniversary meal! We will definitely be coming back.

Love trying new places on date night and this was a success! I had the porc parisien with penne pasta that also came with 4 toasted baguette pieces. I thought the portion was very good and even had some to take home. My husband had the meatball sandwich and while good for $9 it only comes with the sandwich, no sides, which didn’t fill my husband up. The staff was very attentive though bringing us water as we needed it and friendly. The tiramisu was delicious! Served in a stemless type wine glass with your choice of cocoa powder or Cinnamon on top.

The quality of the food, from the ingredients to the exquisite preparation, made this meal an experience that I wish to repeat. The layers of flavor were deep and complex. This restaurant is truly a culinary gem in the Spruce Pine food scene. Worth the drive from Johnson City, Boone, or Asheville.

My wife and I recently had the opportunity to experience the fantastic fabulousness of their delightfully delicious delicacies. I had considered the chicken piccata, but I chose the bolognese, instead, which was absolutely DIVINE. Fortunately, though, my wife chose the piccata, so I was still able to taste it and it was also… . The meats of the dishes are cooked to tender perfection, as well as the noodles being the perfect softness. There is not a dull, lack of flavor to be found in anything. I think next time I may continue to be adventurous and try something new again, perhaps off the pesto section …now I want some Gustoso, darn it lol.

I seldom give 5 stars, but they earned it. The shrimp and scallops over penne pasta with spicy marinara was off the charts, the service perfect, portions great, and prices reasonable. Awesome.

Since they opened this has become the place my husband and I go to for date night. We’ve tried several dishes including the pasta with meatballs, chicken parm, and the jaegerachnitzel. My top two favorites are the beef bourguignon which is like a beef stew and the beouf parisien with is pictured below. The prices are very affordable and you can tell everything is homemade including the desserts. I highly recommend giving them a try.
