"Over at Ever Andalo, visitors will find a handful of al dente pasta dishes folded with red sauce, focaccia layered with burrata, and roasted oysters spooned with Parmesan and butter. Diving into chef Sam Sheehan’s ricotta gnocchi has the potential to shake off any biting chill from the outside. The cocktail menu here is quite notable, and has many boozy drinks, like a rum Negroni with a coffee vanilla foam or a boozy chai drink ready to keep customers warm. The window panes (while not quite frosted because we’re in Charlotte) do reveal passersby and a bustling little NoDa strip, especially during the shopping-heavy holiday months." - Kayleigh Ruller
"An upscale NoDa option reviewers choose when feeling fancy, offering a more elevated dining experience for special evenings out." - Eater Staff
"It had us at “cheese cloud,” a fluffy pile of fluffy Parmesan or pecorino that customers can add to pasta for $3. Restaurant power couple Jeff Tonidandel and Jamie Brown always pay attention to the details, and their foray into Italy is no different. The menu of six or so housemade pastas and sharing-size entrees like branzino is rounded out with small plates (toasted hazelnuts and the whole fried artichoke are standouts) that you can keep all to yourself." - Timothy DePeugh, Kathleen Purvis
In NoDa, house-made pastas, burrata, and an all-Italian wine list make for a lively, romantic evening. Celebrated by Southern Living and guided by a local team known for neighborhood hospitality, it brings Italian warmth to date night.
