Where is the Best Family-Friendly Dining in Raleigh, North Carolina?
We’ve lived in Raleigh for four years and are now moving. We are SO sad to be leaving such a fantastic restaurant! It has been our favorite Italian restaurant. Make that our favorite restaurant of any kind here in Raleigh. We have yet to find better service, better quality of food, and better priced dishes. My father in law is Italian and says it’s as authentic as it gets! The staff always makes an effort to remember you when you return. They recognize special occasions with decorations and free desserts. Very pleasant and well kept. Decor is really neat…you definitely don’t feel you’re in Raleigh! But most important the food is outstanding. The timing of service is perfect. The quality and size of the dishes are impecable. We have eaten here for four years and have NEVER had a bad meal. I can’t imagine anyone saying a negative word about this restaurant. The owners put a lot of pride and care into this establishment and it shows.THIS IS A RALEIGH MUST! IT IS SIMPLY THE BEST!Pr
I thoroughly enjoy Philly Cheesesteak Sandwiches and from the very first time we went to the one at Brier Creek, I had another food that I knew this was one of the best places to get one. I can’t go long before I must have my Philly Cheesesteak. Just had one last night. Totally Awesome and the staff are all just great. Thanks Jonny for having a great place to eat at.Pros + Cheessteak SandwichesCons – Could be come habit forming

I’m glad I did, because the sandwich was mediocre, and wouldn’t you rather have a mediocre sandwich than a disappointing plateful of one of your favorite comfort foods?Especially disappointing was the bread. I had been planning on using this place as a bread source (Cuban bread is only good for a day), so that was a real bummer. In fact, the bread was so textureless and boring that it ruined the whole sandwich for me. Only by pulling at the edges of the crust could I get a morsel or two that had any character at all. The roast pork was grim, and worse, it was cut thick, so it was also leathery. The ham was nothing special. The sandwich maker was stingy with the pickles. There’s a sign inside t
