Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Wake Forest

Truly an amazing experience! What a fantastic meal and great way to celebrate my wife’s birthday!

Irregardless is one of our favorite places to go before we attend a performance downtown. Tonight, we had exceptional service, interesting cocktails, and excellent food, and we were on our way in less than an hour. This delightful Raleigh landmark is always a good choice. My spanakopita was just right, and my husband's steak was beautifully cooked.

This is not our first visit to Mulino’s. We have never come to Raleigh and not eaten there. It is the best restaurants in Raleigh.

I have eaten here several times and the experience has always been great. That is, presentation, food, service, atmosphere, etc. This is one of my favorite go to restaurants in Raleigh. I highly recommend a visit, but be sure to make reservations.

An absolute gem. I'm quite surprised to find this in Wake Forest. As I am from the midwest, I somewhat expected an independent place like this to claim 'authentic Italian food' but only serve Olive Garden style fare. I was a bit skeptical. Not the case at all - the place had the real feel of Italy to it. Very authentic dishes and care and attention to the craft. We were served by Gaetano, the owner. He was very enthusiastic about his food. We enjoyed the special Grenache made by his family in Sardinia, the Pappardelle Cinghale, Lamb Chops, and the veal chop. Amazing. And the owner brought us some of his special limoncello - delightful. Would absolutely dine here again. Great place, food, and service.
