Pinocchio's Italian Restaurant.

The service, atmosphere, and food were just perfection. I could not recommend this place more. I would recommend the gnocchi because it was the best that I’ve ever had! The seating is limited so please make a reservation to ensure you have a table. It looked a little empty in the photo because it was near closing.

Authentic Italian cuisine with an extensive menu and seasonal specials weekly. Small and intimate so be sure and get a reservation during peak times. We've been on a Tuesday and a Thursday when it was not crowded. Service was impeccable and the good delicious. Came highly recommended by friends and it didn't disappoint. The chicken or veal is great (marsala, piccata, cordillo, Parmigiana). Desserts are tasty especially the tiramisu.

A lovely place for real authentic Italian food. Great family restaurant. The staff are very friendly and well knowledgeable on the food items. They also have great wine selections. The food is AAAAAWWWWEEEESSSOOOMMME. Cooked fresh on the spots for. No frozen microwave food. And no processed stuff, just plain REAL FOOD.. We really enjoyed the place. WARNING: You must call ahead to make sure their is seating for you. Or just make a reservation.. The place is always packed.. The best times for walk ins are Tuesday’s and Wednesday.. It is worth the wait. You will not be disappointed.. We LOVE THE PLACE.

Excellent food, service was great without being intrusive. Very quaint setting,. My grandmother was full blooded Italian, so I was raised on very good authentic Italian food. I am from up North, and there are a lot of mom and pop restaurants that are phenomenal. My point being, I have lived in NC for upwards of 10 years and this is the best little Italian restaurant that reminds me of home. Everything was homemade and authentic. From the bread and oil, the lasagna, the cannoli, everything, home made and phenomenal. I am so glad we found this little gem! Definitely will go again and again, make sure to make reservations, very small location, but that makes it that more special.

My mom came to visit this weekend and I did not want to take her to a chain restaurant. I asked a friend if she had any suggestions and she suggested taking her to Pinocchio’s. We had a wonderful experience. I loved the atmosphere and the food was excellent! I ordered the crab and shrimp ravioli and tiramisu for dessert. I will definitely be back!
