    Fettuccine Alfredo and Baked Manicotti
    Yara M.

    One of the best restaurants in Greenville. After trying aTavola I was surprised I had not heard more about it, has some of the best Italian in town. All their pasta dishes are great! I want to try more on their menu, but end up getting the same few things, because they are so good and comforting! It a simple little restaurant that is serving some great Italian dishes.

    Ordered food on a Wednesday night ,to go, only to receive the wrong order. The young lady says no problem come back in and I will fire up your order, Chicken Parm and an d Eggplant Parm. We get home and all they did was reheated the original orders. It was burnt, Dry and hard as a rock. We called back only to get the answer "what do you want me to do"? Absolutely surprised and unexpected.

    Cool spot for great Italian food in Greenville. After attending an event at ECU, decided to check this place out for dinner. It was unusually crowded on a Sunday; we were told a 1 hour wait at 6:30PM. After about 20 minutes, they added a few tables in an event room in the back, and we were seated promptly. Service super friendly. Thanks to bartender/server Mark. Service was quick despite how busy the restaurant was. Tried an Italian Trilogy - manicotti, ziti and lasagna. Added meatballs and sausage. This was enough to split - which we did. It's served split from the kitchen. THANK YOU! Pastas were prepared as you would expect, gooey cheese, slightly sweet sauce, just-right pasta. Meatball and sausage were excellent - simmered for quite a while until tender and flavorful. The only disappointment was that there's no cannoli on the menu. My go-to dessert when eating Italian. Other than that minor nit, this was a good meal.

    Excellent dinner and service. Lasagna and Shrimp Carbonera was very good. The ambiance in the restaurant is warm, peppered with paintings and inviting decor! If you're ever in the area you must try this Italian restaurant!

Food takes some time as each are made to order but worth it. Nice and helpful staff at the counter. The Deets: I had the chance recently to go tailgating before an ECU football game, and my friends that regularly do so recommended Pirate's Deli so we stopped on our way to the game. This deli is fairly good sized with a extended menu of offerings on a board around two of the walls near the ordering counter/pickup area. The staff was nice and helpful when ordering. I looked over all the great and plentiful choices, finding the NY Yankee Chicken Cutlet Sandwich (breaded chicken, bacon, melted Swiss, lettuce/tomato, with honey mustard) which looked just right for me. Orders do take a while to come up as each are made to order and there were a few people ahead of us already getting their game day selections. Our orders were out soon enough and we were off to tailgate. The sandwich was very good...just messy enough to be interesting but not chaos to eat and the components came together for a great tasting combination (see pic). I was pretty satisfied with this sandwich and would definitely get this one again. Everyone one else felt the same about their food selections as well. In all, a good stop into Pirate's Deli to secure some tailgating eats before the game.

    Now this was a whole vibe and very much so one hell of an experience that I won't soon forget!…read more Right in the middle of our coaster trip we stopped here on our way to the next adventure and instantly we felt the love from the local community as it was very apparent that they have a very dedicated local following here as there was a few people waiting in line to order with a few more coming in those that came in had a trophy with them celebrating their cousin for being the best and they totally let everyone know it with the staff here calling them by name and just being all for it, then this guy out of no where asks me for a sip of my drink I say it's not mine but my lady's he's like oh she makes the decisions I say yes you better believe it he just starts laughing then his wife tells him to behave as the staff hands him his drink. Those inline then started just talking to us and out of nowhere again one of the staff working says you know them and the lady he was talking to says yes they are friends of mine and we all just chilled in this counter area talking and having an awesome time waiting for our food to be done overall awesome vibes here all around! Now that pepper steak sandwich wow that's good like it was soo flavorful and yummy it had a ton of pepper steak on it that was mixed with some type of sauce that just soaked into it making each bite just that much better than the one before and not to mention it was packed with some veggies too as well as banana peppers to set the vibe even more! Seriously though don't count out that bread that was some delicious bread with a good crunch to it that totally held up to an already strong delicious sandwich! Overall this was an amazing stop with vibes and one of the best sandwich's I've ever had I really hope to get back here again at some point because that flavor was there in more than one way seriously just soo good!

    If you are in the area, absolutely stop in and grab a delicious sandwich! If you know, you know!…read moreThe vibes here are immaculate. Such a fun place to be. It's always a good time when you can tell the workers and customers are having fun. Even with a line out the door, everyone had a smile and was so nice. Everyone recommended the pepper steak and they were not wrong. This sandwich was so good. The seasoning was perfect and the meat was super tender. The bread was super soft and still crispy. I loved this place I will absolutely be back!

    I discovered Nino's when looking for places to dine over my stay in Greenville, NC. I read it was a…read morebusy place so I made sure to make a reservation. When I arrived, I thought I was going to a fine dining establishment with the decor outside and patio. Even the chandeliers and painted ceiling when entering set my expectations high. Then I was seated in the empty Rat Pack room. It was obvious that I was exiled to be hidden away from the other diners in the main dining area. A couple did join me over an hour later. I would have been fine dining in the room to myself if the staff standing around the hostess stand were not loudly complaining about their personal problems such as their high electric bills, rent payments or needing to complete homework. These conversations belong in the break room, and not for guests to need to listen to, so much for the fine dining atmosphere. My waitress was friendly but did not go over the specials, or seem that familiar with the menu. I started with the Sicily Sunset and some bread. Then I ordered the Pear and Cheese Sacchetti. The pasta pouches filled with cheese and pears in an Alfredo sauce. It was to come with the garnish of cracked pepper, Romano cheese and parsley but that was missing. Parmesan was added at the table. I was a little shocked when my dish arrived within minutes of ordering. It made me feel like I was being rushed as I was isolated and the food came out too quickly. I do wonder if it was freshly made. I could tell they were trying to turn the table quickly as then the dessert menu arrived while I was still eating my entree. The pasta dish was good with the textures and flavor. I would have had a better opinion of the food if I had just ordered that and skipped the dessert. The dessert menu wasn't very Italian so that was disappointing. I had to laugh that the assorted Italian cookies contained chocolate chip, sprinkles, and a chocolate dipped cookie. I did take a photo of the menu, so you can read it yourself. I went with the profiterole, not realizing their version was pre-made. So they took it out of the refrigerator and served it cold. The pasty's texture was changed by the temperature and was chewy. The chocolate ganache had hardened rather than flowing like lava. The dish was not good and I didn't finish. I did mention to the waitress that it was not good and she just said that they might make it different. They pre-prepare it so it isn't fresh. For the price, the service, atmosphere and pacing were below professional standards. I do not recommend Nino's if you are looking for an upscale environment. I would not return after my experience.
