This is a hidden gem that you will just drive past and not think about it…read more I had the Fettuccini Alfredo with shrimp and the sauce was so creamy and rich, the noodles were super tender (not over cooked) just perfect and the shrimp were done right too. The food was packed in a hit tin, with an aluminum/ cardboard lid and a plastic cover. Well cooked, and well packed and hot! I added the Greek salad and it was fresh, crisp lettuce with big cucumber slices and lots of feta cheese. Banana peppers, black olives, red onion slices and a cold vinegar and olive oil mixture on the side. I know people joke about gas station sushi, and that is probably good advice. This Italian food stop is attached to the gas station, but is far from it when you look at quality, quantity, flavor and great value this is a worthy stop any day or for a special day. I did not go inside, and used the drive through, it was very convenient. I could see people inside in what looked like a comfortable and welcoming place to sit and dine. I was passing through from NOVA, but would drive a bit to get here if I lived in the area. Give yourself a treat on the road, just pull off and have some delicious Italian food.

Nothing stands out as dirty or in disrepair or loud. Wood trim, normal restaurant look and feel. We were waited on my Leslie, nice lady. She did a fine job. I ordered the Creamy Lemon chicken with fettuccini. It was so flavorful and tasty and rich, and the chicken was perfectly cooked. I could eat that all day. The plate was huge and so I could only eat about half, but no worries, I love left overs. With that came the side salad and bread. The house dressing is decent - the menu says they make over 90% of their dressings in house. The bread was really good and they had olive oil and a spice blend to dip it in. My wife had a small calzone which came with a side of marinara. That was pretty good too. The marinara tasted fresh. We had no room for dessert. Maybe next time!

We ordered a white pizza so we expected a ricotta base, which it did not have. The owner was present and knew the locals, walking around and chatting and spoke to us to make sure we were helped already. Great vibe here! We look forward to trying other menu items soon.

What a great guy, typical Italian invites you into his family showed us a picture of his mother and father. Talked about his mom with such love. We ordered spaghetti and meatballs. Ok so perfectly done and the right size of plate. So tasty, sauce was light and herbaceous meatballs were perfectly done. Garlic bread just enough to make it great for sopping up the sauce. Tiramisu was perfect dessert for the evening. Nice coffee finish to a cold and creamy dessert. Highly recommend this place you can't go wrong and we felt like we have a new family in Floyd. Thanks Geraldi.

Overall, the experience was just okay -- not bad, but not something I'd drive out of the way for again. If I lived closer, I'd definitely give it another try. We started with sweet tea and bread. The bread with dipping sauce was tasty and a nice start. I ordered the Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo, and my friend had the Spaghetti and Meatballs. Unfortunately, both entrées were pretty bland. My chicken lacked flavor, and I ended up leaving most of it along with half the noodles. My friend only ate one meatball and passed on the rest. The highlight of the entire meal was the Crème Brûlée -- absolutely amazing! If you go, I highly recommend ordering dessert and maybe trying a different entrée than we did. A friend had suggested the lasagna, and I wish I had taken that advice. The restaurant itself is in a beautiful country setting, and the interior feels warm and inviting. With a few tweaks to the entrées, I think this place could really shine.
