Reviews for Castucci's Italian Restaurant in Southport, NC

I can't say enough amazing things about this restaurant! It is the Best Italian Restaurant in the Oak Island/Southport NC area!... If you're looking for an Authentic Italian restaurant, look no further! Make a reservation days ahead because it's a localfavorite and they stay packed! Our favorite dishes are the Rice Balls, Meatballs, Fried Mozzarella, Lasagna, SpaghettiBolognese, Chicken Alfredo, Tiramisu, Limoncello Cake, and Creme Brulee! ???? The staff is wonderful and have become likefamily! We will forever be grateful for their love and friendship of our parents before they passed since we live out of stateand could only visit a few times a year. They even bought my father-in-law his own coffee cup with his name on it for him to useevery time he ate there. ???? Read more

I cannot give this restaurant enough praise. The food is fantastic, the portions are HUGE, the staff are friendly, and the... aesthetic is super cozy and laid back. The worst part about the nature experience is not being able to decide what to orderbecause everything always tastes wonderful! Our personal favorites are the Veal Parmesan and the Gnocchi Napoli. The gnocchiespecially has so much flavor that will give your taste buds a wake up call. Do yourself a favor and make a reservation???? Read more

Absolutely incredible food and service! I do not remember the name of our server but she was the best server I?ve ever had! All... around an amazing experience, just call when they open to get a reservation as there is no walk in seating. Cannot recommendthis place enough. Will absolutely be back Read more

Exceptionally good food. I loved that the bread was served with a balsamic reduction instead of regular vinegar giving at a... milder and sweeter taste. Every single thing we had was great! Only complaint is that our bellies couldn't hold more! Iwill return very soon! Read more

Excellent pasta particularly the gnocchi sorrentino - divine! I ate 1/3 of my sister's dish. The red sauce is excellent on the... spaghetti and meatballs. My niece's linguini with calamari was the best she has ever had. Our waitress, Gracie, was attentiveand very friendly. The portion sizes are very generous. I highly recommend. Read more

We drove all the way from Monkey Junction in Wilmington because we had heard such amazing things about this restaurant. This... place does not disappoint! Everything was amazing; the food, the atmosphere, the staff, everything! We ordered the rice ballsappetizer special that was to die for, the Cesar salad has the best garlic bread crouton on it, and then got the Chicken Piccataand Lasagna as our entrees that will last us 3 meals and is some of the best Italian we have had in a long time!! Their hostess,Rhonda, is so kind and accommodating and came to check and chat with us throughout our meal which made it all the more special;along with Chef Mose in the back who made sure we were taken care of well! We will 100% make the trip back to dine here again. Read more
