    Chicken Piccata

    Had a delicious chicken piccata on my first visit. With a choice of pasta or salad I chose angel hair. Large portion and piping hot! Hot bread roll was tasty and a nice touch. We will be back since a taste of the lasagna did also not disappoint! We had attentive service and were glad we gave this place a try.

    Delicious Italian food at this local spot in downtown Wake Forest. This pizza shop has changed hands a few times, but the quality of the food is still excellent. Pizza is excellent! NY Style, crisp crust, the perfect cheese-to-sauce ratio. Sauce is slightly sweet, just like it should be. Also tried mozzarella sticks. Doubtful that these are house-made, but they are beautifully deep fried golden brown and crispy. Cheese is gooey and moist. Plus a cup of that pizza sauce for dipping. Try the caprese sub! Thick slices of succulent mozzarella, slices of ripe, sweet tomato, some chopped red peppers, drizzled with olive oil and vinegar and torn basil. All on toasted Italian bread. It's simple, gorgeous and delicious! Great food! Try this spot next time you're in DWF.

    Steak and cheese

    It's rare that I ever say anything negative but I wouldn't recommend getting the steak and cheese here. I got it a few weeks ago and wanted to love it but had to spit most of it out for fear of choking on the meat. It was all connected together and very hard to eat, hopefully it was just an off night. I will say the cheese pizza was good and hope to try other things that I can love but it the steak and cheese sadly wasn't it.

    Great spot for NY/NJ style pizza pies. Very authentic taste and crust. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Inside is a bit dated and could use a little facelift but the food is great so it really isn't an issue. Service was good, all servers were great but again good food makes it all okay!

    George's Pizzeria is located in Downtown Wake Forest. It is at the end of the Cotton Company. When there are events upstairs at the Cotton Company you can order pizza or other food and take it to your event. I did that when they had the Comedy Nights. You do need to climb some stairs to get in the front door as it is on the second level. They do have curbside pickup if you cannot do the stairs. I went to George's for lunch and they had a lunch special of two slices and a drink for $5.99 so that is a really good deal. Service was friendly and made sure I had everything I needed. I ordered a whole cheese and the penne vodka with shrimp and fried zucchini. Everything was really good.

    Stopped in for a quick lunch bite. Located in the heart of Wake Forest. Small restaurant with outdoor seating. The bruschetta was my favorite item.

    This spot is definitely added to our list of favorites! I called our order in and it was ready when I arrived. The cashier was really nice. This is by far the NY style pizza we've had in NC. The zucchini fries were really good, too! I look forward to going back and dining in.

    If you are looking for no frill, no dress up type of place, this is a place for you. The food is hot and good. It's not "oh my gosh it is amazing!" But more of a comfort Italian food. The service was slow but understandable when you come in when it's the busiest time of the week. It's good for kids as they also have kids meal as well.

Located in a…read morecharming style Victorian home, Amalia's welcoming service with no reservations was tasteful. We got seated promptly and had the pleasure of being served by Shannon. Shannon was humorous, kind and explained the menu very thoroughly so that we understood. In addition, he asked us what brought us to Amalia's and catered to our occasion. While we were in town for a wedding, we also were celebrating some home wins as well which Shannon took note of and gave us complimentary drinks at the end of our evening which was so kind. We started our evening off with some NA mocktails made in house which resembled a mojito. There were fresh strawberries and a lime wedge on top of the cup. I appreciated that this drink wasn't overly sugary and was the perfect blend of refreshing we needed especially after a flight. From there, we got complimentary house bread which was outstanding as it contained oil and onions baked in. Delicious! Shannon explained the menu was tapas style or small plate. We lead with the zucchini appetizer which had pistachios on top and were given suggestions on how to eat it. We went with the sushi method and ended up rolling the thinly sliced zucchini with a fork and it was perfect!! A very fun experience and such a unique menu option. For our main dishes, my husband has the steak and mashed potato special while I had the truffle cavatelli with sausage. Both items were out of this word and the perfect portion size. Shannon knew we loved the bread and brought us more to our table even though I'm fairly certain that is supposed to be for the beginning of the coursing. While our bellies were too stuffed for dessert right then and there, we did get cannolis to go and they are currently up in our fridge. We look forward to trying! We were able to see the other patrons order dinner in house and the entire layout is a production. If you have the chance and room for dessert, I highly recommend because the staff prepares it for you at your table. In addition, there are lovely coffee pairings with each dessert as an option as well. **Note: Amalia's does not carry red sauce. Many of the pastas are white sauce by design. This was not a deal breaker for us but it might be for someone else. Thank you, Amalia's! You were exactly the Italian cuisine we craved!

We ordered our drinks and she returned with them. We told Chloe we were visiting from out of town and gave us complimentary garlic dots. Our table ordered a small specialty pizza called "The Stanley Cup" it had Canadian bacon, crispy bacon bits, chicken, and cheddar and mozzarella cheese and drizzled with a buffalo sauce, 10 piece bbq wings with ranch dip, I ordered the basil pesto tortellini with salmon and asked for the Kalamata olives on the side and it came with garlic bread and lastly one person ordered a 8 inch build your own pizza with pepperoni, chicken, olives, mushrooms, onions, garlic aioli sauce instead of red sauce, and Parmesan cheese. My salmon was cooked perfectly and the pasta and sauce was delicious. I did add a little salt but I don't like olives so since I gave them to another person in my party if they had been in my pasta that probably would have cured the salt issue. It was still amazing! The garlic bread that came with it was grilled just not buttered enough so I asked for extra. The wings I got one of were good and sauced and had a crispy exterior and juicy inside. I didn't taste the build your own pizza but he ate it all so that says it was good. I did taste a slice of the Stanley and it was good. The buffalo I could handle and I don't care for spicy but it wasn't too much for me. I would say it could have been cooked just a little longer. Still delicious and flavorful!! The garlic dots!!! I would make a trip just for those. Crispy exterior and soft cooked dough on the his inside and their garlic butter made with fresh garlic and the sauce!! Amazing!!! Definitely a keeper! Also got a slice of cheesecake to go! Yum!

For sides we did the roasted garlic potato purée, steakhouse mac & cheese, and the roasted wild mushroom. All of the sides were excellent and good portions.
