Jun 22, 2009Good Food
The amount of food for your dollar is amazing - not to mention the taste will knock your taste buds for a loop! Everything I have tried has been amazing. The staff was friendly and it was nice to sit down have bread brought to my table along with my food. Overall I was very happy with the restaurant and the menu.

PERFECT DELIVERY SERVICE!!!!!
This is the best pasta delivery service I've ever seen in my life! Who else can make a homemade lasagna and have it in your home in 25 minutes.

Thank You
Used the restaurant for end of year basketball team eventfor about 40 folks. Wow - did they go out of their way. They offered our group a buffet style meal which included lasagna, chicken calabrese, baked ziti, all kinds of pizza, calzones and salads. We were impressed and to a person we left very pleased. We'll be back next year. Thanks again.

Dec 29, 2008Thank You!
We used the restaurant for a dinner event for 40 people for an end of year basketball event. They gave us an amazing deal. They offered a buffet that included lasagna, chicken calabrese, baked ziti, pizza, calzones, and salads. The food was first class. They went overboard in every way. Thank you and we'll definitely be back next year!

Great Experience
I took my family of 5 and had a great experience. I had the Ravioli sorrento and it was tremendous. The staff let the kids play with dough and they had a great time. Everyone enjoyed their meal, the quality was better than I imagined, the prices were reasonable and the portions excessive. To top it off when the staff found out I was a veteran they gave me a discount. Highly recommend this place

DO NOT EAT HERE !! WARNING YOU NOW !!
What a disappointing experience this was...I should have known the moment I placed my order and the kid whom answered relayed the entire order to a third party... including my credit card number. After an hour-and-a-half of waiting, along with a couple of calls, the driver finally showed up. To my surprise, he was expecting cash and had no info on my paying over the phone. Upon contacting the store, my credit card info had vanished and that process had to be repeated. What really got under my skin more than anything was the manager on duty didn't think anything was their fault despite their poor communication skills and lack of scheduling of employees during peak hours and offered no assistance what so ever. Consequently, had the food even been remotely enjoyable, I would have left this alone, but shelling out over $48 bucks, waiting 2 hours to eat, and then presented with that awful pizza and soup, I pledge to stay away forever and offer this warning to those within their delivery area.

Oct 11, 2006Carry out
Carry out is the way to go in my opinion. I swing by Stromboli's on my way home from work, pick up huge family style portion meals and my wife doesnt have to cook. The food is wonderful. We are Italian and this food comes really close to our home cooked meals. We have been regulars since Stromboli's opened and have never had a bad experience. My favorite is the Chicken marsala and my kids love the pizza. Sometimes when we dine in, the love watching the pizza maker twirl the dough and put on a show for them. It is the total package in terms of restaurant price, food quality, service and atmosphere. Check it out!

Delivery
I ordered delivery from Stromboli's. I am new to the area and was very impressed with the service and the food. I ordered the fried calamari, ceasar salad and pepperoni pizza. Everything was so fresh, including the homemade croutons on the salad. The pizza was warm when it got to my door and it tasted homemade. It was awesome and the prices were reasonable. Defintely going to be my number choice for pizza and dinner!

Business
I took a few co-workers to lunch at Stromboli's. The menu had so many options and the prices were great. The portions were also very generous. I tried the venetian chicken and I loved it. I think maybe the other guy who didnt like it, was just having one of those nights. My co-workers had the pasta fra diablo, which they really liked. It was just a little too spicy for them. The other one had a seafood dish. He finished the whole thing and a side of pasta and wanted more. He thought it tasted so homecooked and fresh. The atmosphere was perfect for a quick bite to eat and I even had a nice glass of wine in between my work shift! Not bad! I will definitely be back for more!

Good Italian
I have lived in the Raleigh area for a few years and my family and I enjoy going out occasionally for a nice/fun dinner that is reasonably priced. Stromboli's is the place for that. The portions are huge and the prices are very reasonable. My kids loved the italian music in the background,and my wife and I loved the welcoming atmosphere. The food was great. We ordered two large pizzas, one was called a "Daniele" pizza and the other is a combination we made on our own. It was wonderful. The chef uses a wood burning oven, like they do in Italy, so the pizza is just right...not like a typical chain. The staff was also very friendly. Overall, I am very pleased and I am looking forward to using Stromboli's for a business catering.

Bravo!
I think the atmosphere of Stromboli's was very welcoming. I ordered the chicken calabrese and a traditional white margarita pizza. They were both wonderful!! The chef even came up to our table after the meal to get our opinion! You could tell he cared about the service and the quality. For dessert I had the chocolate calzone... the only word I have for that is WOW!! I am a huge chocolate lover and this hit the spot. The chef even put a design on the plate with chocolate syrup. For a quick service, italian rest. I was very impressed. I went in on Wednesday night and the place was jamming. Overall the experience was wonderful and the chef/manager was fabulous!

Need a new cook?
I ordered Venitian Chicken. The chicken was undercooked and the sun-dried tomatoes were tough and chewie. Both of these prolems would not happen if more care were taken in preparing the meal. I think the cook was also heavy-handed with the garlic. I love garlic, but I was still tasting it the next morning. That is a bit much.
