Caruso's

"It has been awhile since we have gone to Caruso’s but let me tell you it is still great. We decided to start with the burrata. The tomato was perfectly ripe and the cheese very tender and creamy. We then ordered the figs marinated in Grand Marnier with whipped ricotta. They were so flavorful, tender, and savory not too sweet. I asked for them to add some prosciutto which commented it perfectly. I always appreciate a restaurant open to customer desires! We then had the veal chop special with sausage and peppers. Again very tender and cooked perfectly. We ended with affogato. One of my favorite deserts and Caruso’s always nails it."

"Oh my Goodness... We can't believe we've been living in Mooresville and not knowing about this place!! It's our new favorite place... italien at its best. Fresh, tasty, and exceptional customer service. 10/10... You need to live this experience!! Worth the drive if you're not from the area. We went again. Consistency in the overall experience, quality of food, and service. The Server was super nice and helped choose a good bottle of wine. We love the coziness of the place. We added desserts this time, delicious!"

"This was our first visit to Caruso’s. We wanted to have a romantic fine dining experience for a pre-Valentine’s dinner (we wanted to avoid the crowds). We were skeptical when we drove up and it was in a strip mall, but boy were we surprised when we went inside! It was pretty busy (thank goodness we had a reservation—I would highly recommend it), so it was a little loud and we had difficulty hearing our waitress. Our waitress was Lisa—she was very knowledgeable and efficient. We loved everything that we ordered with one exception: the Caesar salad. It hardly had any dressing on it and it was mostly just lettuce. Everything else was amazing! We started with the crab cakes, House red Cabernet, and fresh bread—which was delicious. Next, I had lobster ravioli with a huge shrimp on top (this was a special) and my fiancé had Pappardelle alla vodka (handmade egg noodles with scallops and shrimp in a vodka sauce). We were impressed that the pasta and the desserts are all made in-house. Definitely save room for dessert! I had the mascarpone cheesecake which is unlike anything I’ve ever had!! The crème brûlée was also delicious! We will definitely return. Just know that it’s a little pricier than your average restaurant With tip our dinner for two was about $200."
