Update: I attended their soft opening of their dining room! It was a beautiful setting with a warm rustic feel. The food I tried was excellent. Stuffed mushrooms and Sauerbraten. You can definitely tell that a lot of time and effort were put into these authentic dishes. The wait staff was very well prepared for an opening night. I’m really looking forward to coming back here regularly!
Very delicious and authentic food! So glad to see a restaurant like this come to Spruce Pine! We ordered take out because their dining room wasn’t quite ready. The Chicken Parmigiano was excellent along with the homemade marinara. We got a very healthy portion of antipasto for an appetizer. The best of all was the German Beesting Cake and Chocolate mousse! Can’t wait to eat here again! I chatted with the chef for a long while out on the sidewalk and he was very knowledgeable and kind. Keep in mind this restaurant is on the second floor and the entrance was a bit difficult to find but it adds to the charm and gives it the “hole in the wall” feel. But it is quite spacious upstairs and they even have handicap entrance. Definitely go here if you’re visiting town or if you’re a local. I can’t wait to go back and try some of the German dishes!

Love trying new places on date night and this was a success! I had the porc parisien with penne pasta that also came with 4 toasted baguette pieces. I thought the portion was very good and even had some to take home. My husband had the meatball sandwich and while good for $9 it only comes with the sandwich, no sides, which didn’t fill my husband up. The staff was very attentive though bringing us water as we needed it and friendly. The tiramisu was delicious! Served in a stemless type wine glass with your choice of cocoa powder or Cinnamon on top.

Everything was delicious, from the tapenade to the bee sting cake. I ordered the chicken piccata for my main course, which was tender and perfectly seasoned. I usually don’t like pasta, but, I ate every bite of the penne because it was seasoned perfectly with lemon and herbs! It was an enjoyable anniversary meal! We will definitely be coming back.

The quality of the food, from the ingredients to the exquisite preparation, made this meal an experience that I wish to repeat. The layers of flavor were deep and complex. This restaurant is truly a culinary gem in the Spruce Pine food scene. Worth the drive from Johnson City, Boone, or Asheville.

The food here is delicious and for our appetites, perfectly portioned. We liked everything we ordered, the eggplant lasagna and the shrimp pesto pasta but felt the tiramisu could do much better. Overall it was a lovely dining experience.

Absolutely a disgrace to Italian food.
It took over an hour to get our food despite a half empty restaurant and fully staffed staff. We asked for some bread because I’m pregnant and literally gave us some Walmart buns that were toasted. Tasted like cardboard. Even this took 15 mins.
6 adults on our table and not a single one of us had a good meal. Pasta marinara was tasteless and watery with pasta undercooked – health hazard especially when you’re pregnant.
Stuffed mushroom were gross! You only get one mushroom for $9!!!!
All of us left our food uneaten aside from a few bites.
When we approached the manager to let her know of our experience she was extremely rude and nonchalant about the entire thing showing that this happens frequently. She kept repeating how her other reviews prove that they have good food (which you can see her reply to all one star posts with the same comment over and over and she will do the same with this)
Terrible place. Save yourself money and time and just eat at a fast food chain.
As a person who travels to Europe annually, this food is not even close to Italian! More like microwavable frozen food from Walmart!

Since they opened this has become the place my husband and I go to for date night. We’ve tried several dishes including the pasta with meatballs, chicken parm, and the jaegerachnitzel. My top two favorites are the beef bourguignon which is like a beef stew and the beouf parisien with is pictured below. The prices are very affordable and you can tell everything is homemade including the desserts. I highly recommend giving them a try.

My wife and I recently had the opportunity to experience the fantastic fabulousness of their delightfully delicious delicacies. I had considered the chicken piccata, but I chose the bolognese, instead, which was absolutely DIVINE. Fortunately, though, my wife chose the piccata, so I was still able to taste it and it was also… . The meats of the dishes are cooked to tender perfection, as well as the noodles being the perfect softness. There is not a dull, lack of flavor to be found in anything. I think next time I may continue to be adventurous and try something new again, perhaps off the pesto section …now I want some Gustoso, darn it lol.

I seldom give 5 stars, but they earned it. The shrimp and scallops over penne pasta with spicy marinara was off the charts, the service perfect, portions great, and prices reasonable. Awesome.
