I appreciate Amedeos for all the wolfpack stuff on the walls. especially some of the old skool signatures on the wallalways thought the food was meh
2/12/2010 5:51:31 PM
so...it will become a remington grille? or stay italianishdont know how the ownership change stuff works
2/12/2010 5:54:33 PM
briefly talked to the new management the other night, they are investing some money into the bar part and upgrading the tv's. that place has really needed some help for awhile, they've had pretty subpar food at not that cheap prices. i doubt they would get rid of the atmosphere, but it could really use some fixing up.
2/12/2010 5:57:59 PM
terrible service last time I went.
2/12/2010 5:58:18 PM
went once, and the food and service were deplorable.I knew better than to ever go back again.
2/12/2010 5:59:46 PM
the bar side is awesomeif you go, go straight to the bar and order your food there, youll get great service, especially from stephenglad to see theyre investing their money on that side, has great drink specials and a good atmospherethis must be what the "oh damn, shits going down" meeting was about a month ago[Edited on February 12, 2010 at 6:04 PM.

their pizza is good, but the lasagna is meh
2/12/2010 6:19:01 PM
whaaaaaaa?????i love the lasagna, its homemade and DELISHUSthe pizza is also great
2/12/2010 6:21:34 PM
the pizza is OK and their pasta is kind of blehremington grill is disgusting though so i'm not sure this is going to get any better
2/12/2010 6:26:06 PM
As far as I know it's going to be a Remington grill...could be worse I guess Their pizza was my favorite though...

2/12/2010 6:35:54 PM
lets hope that they improve the food instead of keeping the menu
2/12/2010 6:37:17 PM
fucking sellouts. I used to really like amedeos
2/12/2010 6:38:24 PM
it's been a couple of years since I've heard this/eaten there, but I had always heard whispers that one of their managers had a huge drug problem that's why things have kind of died down there for the past couple of years
2/12/2010 6:38:56 PM
eh, if youre talking about the brother, he ran off and opened amedeos in north raleigh, he hasnt been involved with the western blvd one for a long while
2/12/2010 7:03:30 PM
Like everyone else, I just get the pizza there. No complaints on it.Eat peanutsEat pizzaDrink sodaDrink beerIt's a pretty simple formula that works. Quit trying to be all high falootin' and order your special sausage party lasagna or whatever. They're going to fuck that stuff up.
2/12/2010 7:44:21 PM
me and my fiancee live a few blocks away on Marcom and so we've frequented the place enough- it's overpriced for what it is- the service is terrible (theyve forgotten something everytime we've gone)- there's sometimes a weird smell coming from the backbut it is always packed when we go so go figure, unlike gourmet factory which is amazing and always completely empty[Edited on February 12, 2010 at 8:54 PM. Reason : not melting pot]
2/12/2010 8:40:07 PM
Yes, there is a smell issue.And the food is absurdly priced considering it tastes like it's ninety percent Hunt's tomato paste.But it's cool. Order a bunch of food, get extra cheese on everything, and gorge yourself in a dark restaurant full of old people having their special date nights and families getting fat.I kinda dig the tradition with the pictures and stuff, but that was more of a Brother's thing for me. Like, I grew up going to The Rathskeller in Chapel Hill more than I did Amedeo's.

RIP Amadeo'sgoodnight sweet prince
2/12/2010 8:59:45 PM
I've never had a service or food issue there. I usually get manicotti which is great and their salad with home made dressing
2/12/2010 9:31:30 PM
I haven't been there in ~2 years, though I used to go quite a bit. The last time I went I wasn't too impressed, though maybe 5-7 years ago it was pretty damn good. Hopefully they'll make some changes to the recipes to improve them (and stop cooking the pasta to death) without completely redoing all of them, and they better keep the NC State decor intact.
2/13/2010 3:53:18 PM
I went once. Food was terrible. Never went back.Maybe it will actually be decent now. Though it will take some convincing for me to go back.

haven't been there since probably 2005i'll give it another try with the new management
2/13/2010 4:10:50 PM
i've never been. I drove by it every day on the way to work and just said fuck it.
2/13/2010 4:12:23 PM
they had a decent pizzaI honestly don't remember getting anything else from thereand I doubt the pizza was exceptional
2/13/2010 4:12:53 PM
The best pizza in the world is of course at Jonny B's in Gastonia, NC.
2/13/2010 4:13:50 PM
we have this restaurant here in Washington (NC) called Marabellaor Marabella's I forgotit's got one location in like New York somewhere, and one in fuckin miniature Washington hahait's probably the best pizza I've had lately
2/13/2010 4:15:31 PM
There's a place called Andolini's down here that is supposed to be amazing. I'll go there for dinner!
2/13/2010 4:17:22 PM
knew this was coming
2/13/2010 4:55:45 PM
^^ where are you? there's an andolini's in charlestonnnnn.
2/13/2010 4:59:43 PM
i haven't been there in years but i'm sad to see it go. maybe i should have given it more business?
2/13/2010 5:01:12 PM
I appreciate the Pack pride of that place, but in all seriousness..they had the absolute worst fucking italian food ive ever eaten.
2/13/2010 5:04:52 PM
2/13/2010 5:08:51 PM
what are you all getting that is so good there? i have had most items on the menu and i can't think of a single dish that is anything special. hell even their salad usually has old, brown lettuce in it.
2/13/2010 5:18:13 PM
agreed.
2/13/2010 5:43:03 PM
2/13/2010 6:30:18 PM
^On the corner of New Hope and Hoffman, near the Bi-Lo.It's pretty good--service is hit or miss though. [Edited on February 13, 2010 at 6:39 PM. Reason : guess it's actually Redbud at that point...stupid road names]
2/13/2010 6:34:16 PM
just looked at teh website, I'll have to check it out.
2/13/2010 6:38:09 PM
I liked hoffman better when it became bradford heights rd. Those curves were fun
2/13/2010 6:53:01 PM
holly shit, ive never eaten there and thats 5 minutes form my housewait just a second, is there another tww gastonian??
2/13/2010 6:55:18 PM
goodnight sweet prince
2/13/2010 7:06:48 PM
^ The woman that ran brothers into the ground was a terrible person. Brothers deserved to go under from her shitty management.
