Price: Very Expensive
• Italian • Wake Forest
Booked 4 times today
Amalia Fumelli is the inspiration behind Amalia’s Authentic Italian Restaurant. She was born in Italy in 1932, and grew up on a farm. As she grew up, she took an interest in cooking and learned everything about the Italian kitchen from her mother and grandmother. For countless hours each day, Amalia began making hand-made pasta with her rolling pin on an old, wooden table. After many years, she had mastered her pasta creations through her skilled handiwork, precise cutting skills, and the amount of love she put into her work. Over time, Amalia has passed all of her secrets and knowledge about food along to her children and grandchildren. One grandchild in particular, Filippo Fanfani, gained a passion for the art of cooking through her guidance. As a child, he spent all his days at his grandmother’s house preparing meals for his family. The two have a strong bond, that began with their conjoining love of creating meals that are enjoyable for everyone.

    The Valentine’s Day menu was fantastic. It was both fixed and flexible with enough choices for both of us. The service was excellent, and the staff was attentive to all the tables. It was a busy night, and we didn't feel rushed at all. Highly recommend ❤️

    Wow, one of my best experiences in the triangle in a long time, possibly ever! Service from Shannon was perfect, each dish was to die for and the beverages were thoughtful! My only complaint was that the music started out really good then they switched it half was through the night to a very bland and repetitive playlist. Picky I know but this was a 99% perfect experience. I will definitely be recommending everyone try out Amalias!

    Great place for a special event. Pricey but worth it with a special someone. Service was outstanding. My water glass never got close to being empty. Appetizers were well proportioned and nicely presented. Entrees were plenty with some leftovers for another night. Parking during a special event can be challenging as there are other restaurants nearby that share parking space. No booths that I could see as all seating was at tables.

    Have dined at Margaux’s several times, this dinner was one of the best. We both got the 3 course pre fixe dinner. The caesar salad hit the spot, the pork dish was delicious, and the scallops were so good! The end came with the oatmeal cream pie/key lime pie dessert that was so scrumptious! Nothing brings a great meal together though like the service. Our server did not disappoint. He helped guide us through the wine list, and made our meal even more of an outstanding experience.
