You can also choose soup as a side to a full sandwich. Sides are a bit weak 'choice' wise - the sandwiches here are the 'chock full of goodies' star of the meal. Which is ok 'cause they're the Bomb. Just eat chips and be done with it for sides. Outdoor seating. Reasonable pricing. Friendly service. Great food. LOTS of parking - front and back.

I still haven't tried the one in Sylva (heard good things), and I think I'll pass on the one in Bryson City. As for this joint, the outdoor dining area is supreme. Well, maybe it was just supreme on that day thanks to the weather. I was on my way to poker (it went well again thanks to me designing and applying TNP a year ago), and I wanted to get some good calories under my belt since tourney poker players don't eat much for 7-10 days when WSOPC is in town. I definitely got the calories! The Chicken Parm and pasta portion here is HUGE! The salad is also the best salad of the four Italian restaurants I have tried in the area. For bread, the garlic knots were very high quality, and if you like garlic knots, you will love it. But in the bread category for me, Frankie's wins with ease, simply because it's a large portion of traditional Italian bread with butter. I love butter. In fact, it's one of my favorite things in life. Sometimes when I'm driving and I glance at my rearview mirror, it looks like a stick of butter, especially during sunrise. For Chicken Parm, I have Frankie's and Bizzaro's tied for the lead over Vale and Bocelli's. But all four are good! For pasta, Bocelli's is in last. For some reason, that sauce works well with the Chicken Parm but not with the linguine. I give Bizarro's the nod for best pasta of the four. For service, all four are amazing. For value, Bizarro's. For atmosphere, Frankie's. For outdoor dining, Bocelli's. For quality red wine, Vale by a mile. Best red wine I have ever tasted! For storytelling, Vale! He will feel like a good friend within a 15 minutes. So ... for Bocelli's, solid Chicken Parm, best salad, great garlic knots, didn't love the pasta, and excellent service and outdoor dining. Definitely recommended! I need to try the pizza at all these places next round.

We just had our last meal at Bocelli's. I have been a loyal and faithful customer since they…read moreopened. We spent over $80 for three of us to have supper. Through the course of our two hour ordeal, our server went from being pleasant to inattentive and eventually downright rude. My appetite was light so I ordered only a cup of tomato soup, which is always delicious and did not disappoint. I ordered a side of two meatballs, and when they finally arrived an hour after we had placed our order they were cold and without flavor. My wife's dish of trout was noticeably smaller than the servings and portions they once gave and the dish was over salted. It was a struggle to get our glasses refilled. We watched three different tables, two couples and one four top get seated after we ordered, these three parties ordered, ate, paid, and left before our food ever arrived. Our server never asked how our meal was and was never at the table long enough for us to express our concerns. No host ever checked on us. After our meal, I was unable to locate our server, and I was unable to locate a hostess to express my concern. This is so disappointing because this does not reflect how this restaurant began.

I don't know what was wrong with that guy, but as a writer and a human, I can assure you that no matter what you do, you can never make everyone happy all the time. That's why it's best to just be authentically you. I got a little off-topic there. What I saying was ... the only negative reviews are for long wait times for takeout or if the dining-in crowd thinks the takeout orders have taken priority over their food. It has nothing to do with the quality of the food. I dined-in and sat outside. The wait times for food were right on the money. I didn't feel rushed and it didn't take too long. I could enjoy my meal and the experience. I have been to Frankie's across the street and had two meals there: Chicken Parm and the Spaghetti & Meatballs. The Chicken Parm was much stronger than the Spaghetti & Meatballs. So when comparing the two Chicken Parm dishes, they are equal but polar opposites. Frankie's is a fancier place with all the bells and whistles. It's a great vibe but also a little expensive. The Chicken Parm is thicker and you get a side of pasta but have to pay for the salad. At Bizzarro, the Chicken Parm is a much thinner cut but still a large portion, you can get angel hair pasta (a rare treat), and you don't have to pay for the salad. For bread, you get traditional at Frankie's and garlic knots at Bizzaro's. I'm not a huge fan of garlic but during this meal, I realized I like garlic knots if I eat them upside down. As for vibe/atmosphere, at Bizzaro, I walked through the little service area to get to the outdoor tables. As I ate, there were parked cars right there, someone mowing a lawn in the distance, and the TV was on from the service area. I would usually not like these things, but I loved it here. It completely fit the vibe of feeling at home and just chilling on the deck. Add the friendly staff and you will feel very welcomed. While the Chicken Parms are different yet equal, Bizzaro's definitely wins for value as you get similar portions plus a salad at a much lower price. I'm glad I found Bizzaro's and I have added it as a go-to when in town. I'll still hit Frankie's too, but maybe Bizarro more often. It always depends on the second visit. I didn't try the pizza yet but I'm sure it's good. The only negative here is the awkward and small parking lot but no big deal. Highly recommended!

The roadside-style motel is defunct with boarded up doors and broken windows but don't let that deter you. Just go to the back of the parking lot to the building with red shutters. There is a decent amount of parking with one handicapped space by the door. There are steps going up to the door, so bear this in mind if you are mobility-challenged. On entering, there is a small counter to the left with the cash register. We were greeted as we entered and told to sit anywhere. Seating is all tables, either two or four tops. While it is definitely an older building it is clean and bright inside. Our server came as soon as we sat down and took our drink order. She returned in maybe a minute with the drinks and took the food order. She was very pleasant and an obvious professional. The menu is fairly large but simple to understand. You can select one egg and then add whatever other protein you want. The eggs come with biscuit or toast, and grits or gravy, so it's easy to assemble the meal just for you. They also have omelets, pancakes, and French toast so you can easily find something you like. The food arrived in no more than five minutes. This was unexpectedly quick but everything was cooked as ordered and hot off the grill. The eggs were cooked perfectly and the sausage ordered with the eggs was hand patted. I would have preferred two sausage patties but the one provided was very tasty. The biscuits are obviously homemade. The sausage gravy had some sausage bits evident and I did add pepper (a personal preference) and it was very good. The Western omelet had all ingredients cooked in with the eggs. The hash browns were more like home fries and crispy on the outside and soft inside. There were not many people here when we were, but they did have several take out orders. Service was very good as was the food. This is certainly an instance of not judging a book by its cover and may be the most accurate description of a hidden gem.
