Arriving without a reservation, the bartend notified the owner, who came to meet us personally, asked for our name, invited us to the bar for 10-15 minutes (which turned out to be less than 5), and walked us personally to the table. Learning we were from out of town and first-timers, Alfredo stopped by 3 times to make sure we enjoyed our meal! The menu reports his aspirations were to create a family friend atmosphere--he has done so. The place was rocking with large tables, filled with laughter and joy. We live nearly 90 minutes away but so enjoyed ourselves we will likely return (and make a reservation!) for the sheer joy of visiting Alfredo again!

This is a small brightly lit exceptionally clean family owned business. The folks are so sweet and the food is so good. Portions are huge. I was unable to eat all mine. I failed to use the correct names on everything. I haven't had anything bad here. The purple corn drink is delicious. Not sure what all is in it but wow. I was unable to have their purple corn pudding. Just too full but it was delicious last trip. Really need someone to split it with or a nice afternoon nap to recover. She also makes some of the most beautiful cakes and baked goods I have ever seen. Gabriella's is such a great break from The traditional Tex/mex. Delicious food with large portions and great service served up in a bright and clean family owned restaurant. All plus's.

It was a perfect night to eat in the open air, unless you're downwind from a lady standing near the entrance smoking a cigarette , which we were, unfortunately. After we got our drinks, we waited at least 30 minutes to get our food, but we appreciated the update from one of the servers. We never did get the waters we asked for, but our pizza and chicken Gorgonzola were excellent...even on the wobbly table from which we ate! Our server was working her tail off, because according to another server, they were short three people. This place is a staple in Etown, and it will most likely be around for a long to come.

Make sure you make reservations because they're usually very busy. As for the food, I think that this is one of the better Italian restaurants I've tried in NC. The Parmagiano Crab Dip is absolutely to die for...especially when served with their freshly baked flat bread. The pasta all'Ortolana was very well seasoned and filled with veggies. I judge an Italian restaurant by their sauce & meatballs which honestly didn't disappoint. Portion sized are generous...everyone was leaving with takeout containers. The service we had was impeccable! Our server, Madison, was amazingly attentive and efficient! This will be one of our favorite haunts.

We decided to venture out for Christmas lunch and were grateful to find Ruby Tuesday open when most…read moreother restaurants were closed. Not surprisingly, they were absolutely packed - but we were seated relatively quickly and our server Micaela truly saved the day. She was attentive, efficient, and kept everything running smoothly despite the restaurant being slammed. Outstanding service under pressure! The building itself shows its age - it's definitely tired and could use some updating - but I'll give credit where it's due: it was clean and well-maintained. Now for the food - we were all pleasantly surprised! My wife ordered the tilapia and really enjoyed it. I went with the cajun chicken pasta, which had great flavor and was cooked perfectly. Our son got the triple meal (ribs, shrimp, and chicken tenders) and cleaned his plate, which is always the best endorsement from a kid. For a chain restaurant on one of the busiest dining days of the year, Ruby Tuesday delivered. Sometimes you just need a reliable meal and good service, and that's exactly what we got. We'll definitely be back, probably on a less hectic day to get the full experience. Shoutout to Micaela and the entire staff working on Christmas Day - you made our holiday look lunch a success!

This visit we took our daughter to celebrate her getting a new car. Dinner itself was fine, my wife ordered a cookie skillet for herself and my daughter and i ordered one to split ... well, my daughter found 2 hairs in our dessert and called our waitress who got the manager over and didn't look at what we had found and said she would not charge us for the dessert. I don't know if anyone else has found foreign objects in their food but it was actiually sickening to discover not one but 2 hairs in our food ... my daughter actually pulled the first hair she found from her spoon... completely ruined the evening for me and really angered my daughter. I don't plan to ever go back there. I left a tip for the waitress because it was not her fault ... but what an absolutely disgusting experience at this restaurant.

The host and attendants greeted guests with delight as they explained in detail the menu and the special of the day! The appetizers were plentiful and amazing! The cheese pull from the lasagna dip was definitely "Cheez'n" and deserved a solo spot on Instagram and TikTok! The mozzarella caprese salad was vibrant with the colors of the Italian Flag!

If you're thinking of a nice place to take someone to I definitely recommend this place and ordering a nice bottle of wine to enjoy with the meal! The service is always top tier also!

For our entrées, we tried the spaghetti with clams, which was flavorful and delicious, along with the lobster ravioli.

The restaurant also has plenty of space, making it a great option for larger gatherings. I can definitely see the outdoor seating being especially nice during the summer and fall. Overall, great food, a welcoming atmosphere, and a lovely dinner. We'll definitely be back!
