Garibaldi Trattoria

Great first visit. Nice live music — family friendly. Started with wine/​beer and onion soup/​coconut shrimp. Husband enjoyed veal piccata with artichokes. I had no pasta — shrimp, chicken and veggies ala vodka. Ending with cappuccino.

Authentic Italian food and amazing service! Great wine selection and huge menu full. Lovely outdoor dining space where you can see their fresh herbs. Everyone at my table loved their dishes, which ranged from lobster ravioli to chicken piccata.

We are at Garabaldi’s for the first time. Loved the vibe and the menu was extensive! Good Italian food in FV. Nice little bar as well if you just want a drink. Cool outside seating as well. The bruschetta was awesome!

very good, homestyle Italian cooking. Waiter was great, very attentive. Very good wine selection and not too far from home. Will most likely visit again, adults only this time.

Samantha was excellent!
The food was amazing!!!

Sit outdoors when there’s good weather!

We went tonight for dinner and was pleasantly surprised being from NY so Italian food has to be good to impress. We sat outside they had a great patio and our waitress was awesome. We had the meatball appetizer which was delish and for entrees the baked ziti and ravioli which were also delish. We would definitely return if ever in the area again!

I took some friends as a thank you dinner. We started with the meatball appetizer. It was fantastic. They bring out bread and oil as well, which was delicious. (The bread is very thick FYI but yummy!) We all had the scallops as our entrée. It is a special that includes scallops and garlic cream sauce tipped with capers, au gratin potatoes in between layers of smoked Gouda cheese, and green beans. It was outstanding. For dessert I had the crème brûlée along with one of my friends, and the other had cannolis. It is one of the most memorable meals I have had since I can remember. Absolutely fantastic. Joe, our server, was amazing. The owner came by and checked on us after we received apps and entrees to make sure everything was well. Let me just say, perfection. I cannot wait to go again.

Totally disappointed. We have eaten several times at this restaurant, but our experience was in the lady who orchestrated the seating. After patiently waiting for 45 minutes, we were told we would be next, then all these people came in and got seated. We approached the lady and she very rudely told us we would be another 20 minutes. Needless to say we left. Very disappointed, but the lady needs to check her attitude. We were not the only ones that left without a dinner.

If I could give this place more stars I would!!!
The owners are so involved and are always at the restaurant when I go. We loved this place so much we had our rehearsal dinner here and they made sure it was perfect! The espresso and crème brûlée is out of this world, but so is everything else! This is just plain good authentic Italian food and again so much flavor in every dish!

The food is great and every single time I go, the service is AMAZING! Everyone is so nice, attentive and helpful. I am so happy this is a place close to home. Italian food is usually NOT my go to type of meal but this place is always wonderful. The food is fantastic, the drinks are great and the food is made to order every single time. Fantastic.

Really good Italian food. Their pizzas are out of sight delicious. Keep in mind there is no lunch menu on the weekends. (Wish there was).

We went for my birthday. A party of 6 and I love this place! Their lasagna is amazing with egg noodles and fresh cheese. The atmosphere is very nice for a date night. I love the outside seating. The restaurant has live music which is very nice-​just a bit too loud for my taste.
The servers are always very friendly and informative. The servers know the menu and have great recommendations. One of the best restaurants in the area.
On the house dessert for birthday dinner is always a plus!

My wife, two friends and I went in for dinner lastnight. The outside was full, as was the inside but we were promptly seated. The atmosphere was wonderful with live music, dim lights and candles on every table.
Our waiter, Joseph, paired each of our dishes with wines and drinks after asking us questions about our tastes compared to the type of food we were looking to eat that evening. He made us feel very special even though there were a lot of other people in the restaurant. He recommended the steak for myself, scallops for my wife, a chicken and sausage dish for my buddy and lobster ravioli for his wife. We all thoroughly enjoyed the food, the drinks and the hospitality.
The owners walked around to all the tables checking in on everyone and created this wonderful family atmosphere. This is truly a gem in Fuquay! We just moved to the area and highly recommend checking this place out!

If you’re from up north, this place is just okay Italian food. BUT, considering the other food in the area, this place is a good choice. Food was good, pasta was good, good salads… YES it doesn’t compare to Italian restaurants up north but for Fuquay, it’s good. We only got take-​out but will probably be back for dinner. Note, there is a separate spot for picking up take-​out orders.

Great atmosphere and Italian food!

Joined the Southern Wake Republican Club for great food, thoughtful service and some socializing. Looking forward to my birthday Halloween for a nice dinner
1÷28÷2016 Had lunch with all my in-​laws from High Point & Greensboro. Meredith was our server she was very attentive, our food was prepared very well and our desserts were outstanding. We’ll be back again soon

Went here for dinner the other night with my extended family while visiting the area. Been here a few times in the past and I have to say this place never disappoints. Our waitress was Samantha and she was very friendly and knowledgable. I had the lasagna which was very good. My mother-​in-​law who is a retired professional chef had the lamb shank and she said that it was superb. My husband who is an attorney but loves to cook for a hobby ordered and loved the New York Strip with a brandy peppercorn sauce. He said it was cooked to perfection. My sister-​in-​law had the salmon which was on the special and she said that it was very good also. If I didn’t know any better I would have thought that she licked the plate clean. We also had the calamari fritti for an appetizer and it was delicious. Again, this place never disappoints which is why we always end up here when we are in the area for a visit. Oh and the owner was there and again like in the past greeted us in a very friendly and warm demeanor. Keep up the good job Garibaldi’s!

Went here tonight for my mom’s birthday dinner. The atmosphere was nice and intimate, with dim lights and candles on the tables. There was live music, which was good but a bit too loud for my taste. There was a gentleman playing a keyboard and singing covers of various blues and r&b type songs… everything from Otis Redding to Eric Clapton. He was pretty good.
Our waitress (Kim) was super friendly and attentive. We ordered fried calamari, which was one of the better versions of calamari I’ve had. The bread was nice and fluffy with a golden crust, and was accompanied by olive oil with herbs and fresh garlic. I ordered a special martini, limoncello. It tasted great-​basically like a liquified Skittle.
For dinner I ordered the lobster ravioli special. It came with sauteed shrimp cooked to perfection and a tomato cream sauce that complimented the dish quite nicely. I would definitely order it again and suggest it to friends.
We ordered a piece of pumpkin cheesecake for dessert to share. It was so light and fluffy with just the right amount of spice and served with caramel sauce.

Pleasantly surprised by this delicious find!
We were in the area and had never really been in Fuquay so of course I had to look up a restaurant on Unilocal!This place had great reviews and we were in the mood for Italian so win win. Unilocal reviews commented on how good the Caesar salad was so of course I got it. It was very good!
For an app we got the fried calamari and to my surprise it included fried jalapeño slices! Soooo delicious and a great way to break up the richness of all the fried food. For my entrée I got the pasta carbonara which was so delicious with the pancetta and peas! Yummy! My husband had the veal Milanese with an arugula salad on top and loved it as well. Our other dinner mates were equally pleased with their food. We are actually going back tomorrow night! Great place and great prices!
Also, our waitress was fantastic! Very sweet and funny and had a beautiful operatic voice when she sang Happy Birthday in Italian to a near by table. Overall a GREAT place!

Flavors Better than 3 Unilocal stars (a little better), though I’m NOT a fan, in ANY way! ! ! Usually I do not complain, NOR even mention Prices! This time I will! OVERPRICED for the kind of «Italian» Food we got!!!
Pasta with Meat Sauce and Lasagna were the Dishes we ordered and BOTH were Good (good as in 3 Unilocal stars good) which may deserve some Credit since Italian Food used to be a Favorite of mine when Great Italian was not such a rarity!
Nice Looking Place! Better looking than most Italian places and more unique than most, though neither Beautiful nor particularly Charming!
Service was Top Notch! Everyone was Very Polite!
