This is a great family run restaurant with a very unique concept in Greenville. When you first enter the restaurant you're greeted by Lauren who will show you to your table. A few minutes before service begins, she'll do a brief introduction and explain the 14 course concept and how the courses will be delivered and present you with the option to purchase soft drinks (tea and water are included and you can bring your own wine). She will also explain how you can enter the 14 course club.
The first course is on the table when you are seated and then you can order your drinks. There is a menu board is at the front of the restaurant and each course is recorded after it comes out.
We thoroughly enjoyed all of the courses, especially the cucumber salad, bruschetta, pork and filet. All of the food was fresh, well seasoned and decently portioned. The servers were very professional and always told us the name of the dish that was being served. The chef even comes out at the end of the meal to chat with the patrons.
I would recommend giving the place a try at least once, you will not be disappointed! The total cost is $45 per person.

The best in adventure dining. It was so much fun, getting a new surprise all 14 courses. If you do attend the 14 course dinner nobody leaves hungry.
Our favorites were the bruschetta, the mafioso meatballs, and Uncle Gino's pasta.
The bruschetta made the top 3 because it is unlike any other bruschetta I have had. They caramelized the bread somehow. My personal standard for good bruschetta, means that you can bite through the bread and the toppings don't fall off when you bite through the bread. It was divine, I could eat that anytime of day at every meal.
The atmosphere they've created really feels Italian American. The light, the music, the photos on the walls. We had to get up and move around because we ate so much, and they were completely fine with us roaming around their space.
It was our anniversary and we had a wonderful time. The price is a steal at 45 each for so much food and the fun exsperience.
The only things I would like to change or add to this exsperience would be better flatware, and more comfortable chairs, with cushions because the dinner is so long. I'm likely to bring my own cushion next time.
We loved the service, the chef came to meet us after the dinner service. The younger male waiters were so nice, easy going and funny, and just familiar with us in a good way. They said, see you tomorrow night.. lolz
I can't wait to go back with some close friends and family.

Authentic Sicilian food of the highest quality, the 14 courses are served freshly prepared one at a time in a relaxing atmosphere with each course explained as it is served. A great one of a kind 3 hour experience that I never thought I would encounter in Eastern North Carolina. BYOB and be prepared for a great time.

Always such an amazing experience from lunch to the 14 course dinner.
Lauren and Charlie are amazing and always treat you like family. The Panelle and Bruschetta are like heaven.
If you're looking for something completely unique, you need to try Cucina!
