"Solid" In the words of the famous Ashford and Simpson, "Solid like a rock" and I mean that in the best way possible. Solid crust, solid sauce, and solid toppings. Customer service is good not great, as I repeated my "to go" order three times only to still have it made wrong. Pizza reheats well and isn't super greasy. A win in my book!

We really enjoyed our experience at Assaggio's! It was packed and it seemed like there was only one waitress but she did a great job ensuring we didn't feel forgotten about in the rush. We arrived starving and left stuffed--the portions are gigantic (enough for tomorrow nights dinner too!) and we were pleasantly surprised to receive a side salad and garlic knots with our entrees. We'll definitely be back for the bogo entree deal we saw on the menu! read more

Assaggio's Italian Restaurant is located in Northwest Raleigh. The parking lot didn't have many parking spaces. It does appear to have a lot of take-out orders, so the available spots may open up often. We were a group of 8, but we were seated very tightly, so there wasn't enough room to be comfortable. After drink orders were taken, garlic knots were brought out. But we didn't have bread plates. I'm not sure whether they forgot or should have been at the table already. I ordered the shrimp scampi. The six little shrimp were cooked well, but I did not find the pasta very flavorful. It needed some garlic and spices. I ordered this dish at many restaurants, and this just did not compare in quality. The prices are higher than those of other Italian restaurants, too. The waiter seemed good at first, but one of the dishes was delivered to the wrong customer, so there was a delay in preparing a replacement meal. Then the kitchen never drained the water from the pasta so the sauce was watery. The waiter decided that he was sure the kitchen prepared it correctly, and this dish wasn't taken back to the kitchen to get the pasta replaced. Another at the table had an almost identical dish, and the pasta sauce was not watery. It was disappointing that the waiter did not handle the situation properly. When it was time to leave, we were told that to-go boxes were on a nearby table. The waitresses boxed up the leftovers for their tables, though. So I am not sure why the waiter didn't do that for us. Then he left the payment device with me, as I was the last to pay, and didn't wait to get it back after I completed the transaction. It was a very strange dining experience and not one I care to repeat. read more

We discovered this unassuming Italian restaurant on the way to an event last night. My teen and friend zeroed in on it noting there were gluten-free options on their website. I was pleasantly surprised to find out at the restaurant that they have a variety of gluten-free pastas including ravioli! I had this with a side salad and my teen had garlic knots (they smelled wonderful and came with a gravy boat of red sauce) and a Mona Lisa pizza with fresh mozzarella. Ashlin the server was attentive and helpful. We will definitely return. read more

Great food - slow service! I like the fact that they still include a free salad and garlic knots with your dinner. It did take over 20 minutes for us to receive our salads after we ordered. Just like most restaurants the portion sizes have decreased. The eggplant rollatini used to have 3 eggplant rolls - now you only get 2 - still plenty to eat. The Penne Santa Lucia was very flavorful. Spotty service dampened our dinner! read more

The food was mediocre. Garlic knots were rolls and not at all garlicky. Zuppe de pesce had pretty much chewy calamari and very little shrimp or clams. Best thing was blue cheese dressing and Malbec wine. I would not recommend this restaurant read more

Wow!!! It has been years since I have been in Assaggios. Not cause I haven't wanted to but because I forget about it at times. I am sure happy I went back today for a great Italian sub. One of the best I've had. Good bread makes a sub and their bread is excellent. Crusty on the outside and not too thick where all you feel like you're eating is bread. Only thing I would have liked is a little more veggies but overall very delicious. Great service, very attentive and the restaurant was clean and well put together. I'll certainly be back to try other dishes. Well done! read more

Easily one of my favorite Italian restaurants in Raleigh. I've been here around 4 or 5 times and have never had a bad experience. The servers are always super nice and attentive. The restaurant has a warm, welcoming, and rustic vibe to it. And the food is always amazing. Their classic pastas are probably some of the best dishes, but you definitely can't go wrong ordering anything else on the menu. Highly recommend trying the garlic knots here. read more

The veal francese was disappointing. It was a hunk of meat with very little sauce for the pasta. Usually the food here is much better than this. I am very sad about the quality of this pricey dish. read more

My boyfriend and I order from here at least once every two weeks. The last three times, there has been quality issues with our order. After getting served this sloppy mess pictured below, we can no longer support this business. I tried to push through and eat a slice but when I picked it up, all the toppings slid off the pizza. $30 and they gave us pizza soup. My boyfriend showed them it before he left the store and the person at the front said it was fine. We called and asked for a refund from the manager since it's not edible. read more

I thought the food here was decent but way overpriced for the mid quality. My daughter hated her calzone . Service was fantastic

Consistently yummy. My fave is the chicken piccata. Includes salad. Prices still reasonable considering the amount of food.

Good food and service. I would recommend this place . Definitely worth a visit. I typically go with the chicken Alfredo but will try other dishes read more

Assaggio's still reigns as my favorite pizza restaurant on this side of Raleigh. As a New Yorker, I'm considered a pizza snob. Assaggio's never disappoints. They also sell delicious Italian bakery items here. The garlic knots, tuxedo cake and pepperoni pie are my favorite menu items. Make this your first stop for pizza in the area. There is ample indoor dining space and they prepare your slices fresh. read more

Delicious Italian food - the garlic knots are amazing! Great local place - it's our go to

Our family was in town for a soccer tournament, and after the first game, our son asked for pizza. I found Assaggio's after doing a quick search on Yelp, and we were all very happy with my selection. I started off with a wonderful glass of Riesling, which was a generous pour. Then, for a starter, we shared the Bruschetta, which had a nice mix of flavors. For our entrees, my son ordered a pepperoni pizza, my husband had the veal parmesan with penne pasta, while I enjoyed the lobster ravioli. It took a while for me to make a decision, though, because there were so many yummy choices on the menu. I was quite happy, though, with my selection. The ravioli is served with a thick and tasty tomato cream sauce. Each bite was a treat! The garlic knots also deserve a shout-out. They were so quite delicious and a really nice change from traditional garlic bread. Then there's the large selection of desserts, which greet you as you walk in the door. We were too full to have anyone after our meal, but we couldn't resist taking something back to the hotel to enjoy later. I highly recommended you give Assaggio's a try the next time you're in the neighborhood. The friendly staff is eager to serve you. read more

Took us long enough to try this (take out, but we have to go in person sometime) and the calzones were AMAZING. I was not expecting that. I ordered a spinach calzone add sausage, then we got a plain sausage calzone, pepperoni calzone add sausage, and a meatball sub. The photo only shows half the sub. We also split a house salad and it was great! Assagios, thank you for finally satisfying my Italian craving in Raleigh! read more

Been looking for a solid Italian place near me and I think I found it! We started with the calamari and garlic knots. The calamari was a little chewy but ok otherwise. I also feel the garlic knots didn't have a ton of garlic on them but I also just love garlic. I got the chicken piccata. It was delicious and the portion was huge! It came with a salad and garlic knots as well. The dish was delightful and filling. My husband got the pizza and it was delicious, thin crust, cheesey, and greasy. Just delicious. My brother got the pepperoni calzone and my mom the Philly cheesesteak. They also liked their meals. Overall, I really enjoyed the food and thought the portions were very generous. Service was ok, nothing spectacular and the ambiance is also just fine. Nothing to write home about but nothing to complain about. read more

Great Italian menu, and wonderful Italian Food. I really like this place - the service is very good, and the food tastes like home made Italian cooking.

OK well I find this restaurant very interesting. Assaggios was a tucked away secret. The food was good the desserts taste great the wait staff was nice but did not listen/hear us well I'm not sure which it was. Food came out and some was cold some of it wasn't put in the computer. The boss/manager tried to make sure we were happy with appetizers Because our reservation was messed up. He was so kind. It would not have been a big deal if it wasn't my birthday. I hope you do go try the food here it's delicious. read more

Me and my family love Assaggio's- the pizza is truly one of the best in Raleigh, and the staff have always been kind and friendly to every customer. This time we got takeout, I personally had the fettuccine Alfredo with shrimp, and it's one of the best I've had. The shrimp were so flavorful and they gave me such a generous portion. I also had one of the garlic knots, also amazing, the perfect amount of garlic and butter. My family ordered a large pepperoni pizza and it was gone in an hour- it was that good. Not many restaurants have done what one server did for my family a few years back, the customer service and relations here really makes you feel welcomed! I had ordered a soup and (entirely my fault) I assumed it was a entirely different dish to what they actually serve (I mixed up the names). I was a bit disappointed at my own mistake, and the server took notice and repeatedly asked if everything was alright and if the soup was okay. It was good but obviously not what I was expecting, and when we got the check she removed the soup from the bill because she took notice of me and wanted to make things right. I don't remember who she was- but thank you! This is the type of service and welcoming Assaggio's always gives us, and it's why we always recommend family and friends to come here. Overall, a wonderful establishment with great food, drinks, desserts, and staff. Try it out!! read more

4.5 - ordered on Uber Eats, food took 1.5 hours to get here but was still warm and fresh. The garlic knots were amazing, soft and dripping in garlic. The marinara that came with it was great, I normally don't love red sauce but this paired perfectly with the bread. The pasta was good but the Alfredo sauce was okay. I had to season it a little and it was more butter than cheese. All together, the meal was great and with these portion sizes I was able to get 3 meals out of it. Would definitely return to eat in person! read more

Assagio's saved the day for us yesterday. My 14-year old wanted to celebrate his birthday at Olive Garden. They don't take reservations so we arrived at 5 pm on a Sunday thinking that was plenty early to get a table for a large party. There was a one and a half hour wait! My son also loves Assagio's so I called them. They said they would have a table set up for us by the time we arrived, and they did. All enjoyed their food. The kids were fans of the big pizzas. My husband loved his Penne Santa Lucia. Vegetarian daughter was thrilled that they kindly held the prosciutto from her Penne Alla Vodka. I am gluten free so there were not many options for me but I ordered the Italian tuna salad. It's not a tuna filet but a cold shredded tuna salad on top of a green salad. Great flavor and the house viniagrette was delicious, too. Thanks for saving the day, Assagio's!! read more

Great Italian food & pizza ! I am from NY & they are top notch Italian ! And... the service is always wonderful too !

The pizza was delicious, but service was mediocre. (Had to ask for soda and water refills, and she seemed bothered by having to do it) Their beer selection was minimal (was told none of their draft beers were available), and the 2 different bottles of beer that were ordered were not very cold. Restrooms could have been way cleaner and weren't a great first impression when we arrived. read more

We ordered delivery via Postmates on a Sunday evening. Our order was accurate and arrived on time. Ordered: -scallops pesto (delicious, lots of herbs, large portion, way too much butter) -fettuccine alfredo (tasty, large portion, too much butter/oil) Pros: -flavorful food -large portions (the pasta portion was large and it came with a decent salad and two rolls) -customizable menu items -reasonable prices -easy delivery via Postmates -still warm upon arrival Cons: -the dishes we ordered had way too much butter in them. The excess pools of butter really took away from the rest of the dish. We had to use numerous paper towels to remove as much butter as we could. Even after that there was still too much fat for our taste. Perhaps they could have an option where you could opt for reduced butter? -the salad was very wet. This was not a big issue but it was kind of unexpected and strange to eat a salad out of a pool of water. I am glad the veggies were washed though! Recommend: filling up on the salad and then having a small side of pasta. Also ask for a reduced butter option if they offer it. read more
