Best Lunch Restaurants in Pineville

Very good bbq and service. Nicely decorated for holiday.

Very hard to get a rez but good was excellent. Lasagna was fantastic and very different, using white sauce and rib meat. Pizza very good along with bouillabaisse. Fresh pasta. Make sure to ask which sauce is spicy though.

“I had a fantastic dining experience! The food was delicious and expertly prepared, and the service was attentive and welcoming. The lounge and bar area provided a relaxing and comfortable atmosphere, perfect for unwinding. Overall, a great combination of quality cuisine and a calming ambiance. Highly recommend!”

We made a reservation 2 days before, and were promptly seated on arrival. At 9:30 am the place was already pretty busy. We had to wait on our server to get to us but nothing offensively long. I ordered shrimp and grits, and my husband ordered the shrimp and crab omelette. We got garlic bread and smoked salmon tostini’s to share. The bread and tostini’s and my entree were great! My husband’s omelette was little dry (the pesto in the omelette isn’t enough for him, he’s a saucy guy). We requested hollandaise sauce to go with it, and it was better but overall a 6.5/10 for that dish. I ordered a caramel iced cappuccino, but didn’t get any caramel in it. Overall we really enjoyed the experience, and we’re definitely coming back to try some more options out, a lot of things on the menu looked promising!

Made last minute reservations and they were able to get us in. We were seated right away in a busy area but we still were able to have normal conversation and enjoy the time together. We had Mussels in Red Sauce that were nice and garlicky. Mussels cooked perfectly. Side Ceasar salad which was just enough and didn’t fill me up. Then the main dishes of Seafood over Squid Ink pasta for my wife and Short rib Ravioli for me. Both dishes were wonderful. On to the Canoli and Cappucinio for dessert. Spot on again! Our server was attentive, very pleasant but not hovering. We asked for our food to served slowly so we could enjoy conversation. Boom. Done. We have been to Zinicola multiple times now and it never dissapoints.
