After several years of not patronizing them, we decided to give them a second try.My niece and I decided to each order something different and share, with one of us ordering Italian sausage stromboli and the other the steak calzone. Sadly, we could not distinguish the difference (other then the breading shape). They both tasted the same (my guess is they were over-drenched in sauce). The garlic knots were meh....Just not enough to make us give them a third try.

We ordered our food for take out and it was very good. The pizza there is good but the Calzone's are amazing. If you want a great calzone, this is the place to get it!

My father is from Philadelphia and I recently stopped by Giovanni's for a cheesesteak sub. This sub was enormous and could easily satisfy 2 people. IlOr 1 with a very healthy appetite. It was the best I've had. Everyone is extremely friendly and courteous. This restaurant is also very children friendly. I've also heard their pizza is awesome and that will be my next order.

My wife and I stopped by Olive Garden across from Concord Mills for dinner. The whole meal was excellent. Our waitress right from the start was helpful and attentive. Our food came extremely fast and fresh. We split the spahgetti with marinara (which was vegan for my wife's sake). We tried the limonatas for the first time which were delicious and superior to most alcoholic beverages (and much cheaper). We enjoyed the meal immensely!

We came in town to Great Wolf lodge and wanted some good pizza. The reviews were very high so we decided to try. Pizza was fresh and delicious, huge slices and we are all nice and full and have a bunch left.. price was comparable to other pizza places weâve eaten at. If in the area again we will definitely stop by

My son and I dined at this Carrabba's on a recent Saturday evening and it was excellent. We arrived after the Infinity race around 6 p.m. and were seated right away. Our server was right there and took our drink order and brought some fresh bread with olive oil pesto for dipping. My son ordered the rigatoni campagnolo for his entree and really liked it. It came with a house salad which was very good. It was a generous portion and he got a to go box for the remainder. I had the 9 0z. filet with garlic mashed potatoes. It was cooked a perfect medium and I polished off the whole thing. It was very good and also came with a caesar salad. We shared a very nice bottle of Chianti at a reasonable price of $34. The restaurant was very clean. Will (if I remember correctly) was our server and did a great job. The restaurant is tucked in behind Bruton Smith boulevard on Lyle way. Plenty of parking. Highly Recommended.

Every time we visit my brother and sister in law, we HAVE to eat here at least once! Thin crunchy crust, lightly kissed with fresh marinara, chunks of savory, perfectly seasoned sausage, and a shower of mozzarella completes this dynamo. Unbelievably delicious, yet so simple. My mouth is watering as I write this. We have to be here again in 2 weeks and I canât wait to go to Alinos again! They have several different types and styles of pizza but sausage is my favorite. You need to check this out!

My daughter and son in law took my husband and I to celebrate my birthday and Father's Day. It was crowded on a Friday night, but my daughter had made reservations. The service was great and food was delicious. The owner stopped by our table for a long chat. He was very friendly and we enjoyed speaking with him. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and will definitely be back! Can't wait to go back and try the pizza.
