    Carbonara pizza  (bottom left) and chicken  parmesan pizza.
    John J.

    The homemade, handmade pasta is the star, but the Roman-style pizza is quite good as well. Our server was new, but he was very accommodating with our questions about the menu. It's a smaller place with a casual, modern feel that has full-service on Thursdays through Saturday and take out Monday through Wednesday, but closed on Sunday. Highly recommend this Italian restaurant when in Blacksburg.

    Pomodoro, chicken parm, and carbonara pizza slices
    Noah L.

    We went on Thursday night where all pizza slices and beer/wine is $3 each. This was my first time there, and the food was absolutely amazing. I got the chicken parm, pomodoro, and carbonara pizza pieces and was not disappointed, especially with the carbonara. The server was very nice but they seemed a little short-staffed given the volume of customers. I can't wait to go back and try out their pasta next time!

The restaurant is in a strip mall area near VT campus, with an outdoor/parking lot patio and two wings of seating on either side of the entrance. The graduation menu was a limited, but good selection of fixed price entrees, apps, salads and desserts. They also had cocktails and a nice selection of wine. The restaurant also doubles as a wine shop. A couple of us had beef cannelloni and one had a sausage and pasta dish, along with a calamari starter and Caesar salads. Calamari was hot fresh and very tender, with a good dipping sauce. Salads were crisp and tangy, with the addition of delicious bread. The baked Cannelloni was superb with a ton of flavor and served piping hot. Tasted like some real love went into it; same with the pasta/sausage dish. Large portions and prices were reasonable were quite reasonable. Finished with some light and airy chocolate mousse. Overall, outstanding service and food, especially when considering the limited options for finer dining in Blacksburg. Only drawback IMO is the quality of the food and service is miles above the ambiance and decor. Could still be rustic, but with some interior color and server dress coordination, would make for a classier dining experience.

I was just hoping to be awed. I had the grilled salmon was looking, for medium but it was definitely well done. It was will seasoned and I was hungry, so none went to waste, lol. I was just hoping for something special. The veggie side was small and basic but well seasoned and the potatoes were also well seasoned but missing the Chicago butter sauce advertised. Instead it had a tiny smear of what I'm assuming was cocktail sauce. I tried the cheesecake bread pudding which was their bread pudding of the day. Overall it was good. I wouldn't have minded more cream cheese and was kind of disappointed the strawberries came out with the leaves still attached. At this price point, I don't want to have to remove things on my own. My server was great, she was training someone new but still managed to be perfectly attentive without being over bearing. With Sidecar and Stock so close by, it takes a peak performance to get me to repeat a restaurant stop when I'm in town for work. This was a solid 4 today but there are 5 star worthy places that have my attention.

On a Monday night, Table 50 is packed with patrons, it is quite loud in here is my only complaint. I will be back to try their southern fried buttermilk chicken breast.
