Zeko's Italian Restaurant - Spaghetti with all beef and chicken Alfredo - Italian Near Me - Whiteville, North Carolina

2 stars only because their marinara sauce is good. Everything else is not. Makes me sad because this place use to be decent-ish. But like everywhere else is Columbus county they end up loosing pride in their business and start to suck. Wings are good though if they get cooked all the way actually read more

Great food and service are always good. If you are looking for great Italian, make sure to give them a try. You won't be disappointed.

Food was medicore, I didn't even feel the need to take a picture considering I couldve gotten the same result with frozen pizza. Waitress spilt ranch all over my mom, had these ridiculous long nails which are beyond unsanitary in the restaurant. She lowkey kept flirting with my dad which was pretty funny despite my mom sitting between them. Wait time was also dreadful, drinks took 30 minutes every refill. Apps took about 40, and we didnt even get our real food until after an hour and a half. Take out got their food in less than 10 minutes. Do take out so you dont EVER have to deal with these people again. read more

Should be renamed ZEROS. Located in a former Pizza Hut building. I was there soon after they opened at 11 for lunch, only one other customer in there. Had to wait for the waitress to finish talking on the phone and finish giving instructions to someone on how to care for her grandkids before she finally decided she ought to take my order. Worn carpet, old booths, a Seko Daytona 500 video game for entertainment, several old and fading fast tv sets, and no music in the background. Your only sounds are the waitresses discussing their dating while deciding who has custody of the kids. I order the fried chicken w Alfredo sauce pasta, which came with bread - two little mini rolls slightly larger than a half dollar coin. It was ok in taste, but most of us could make this at home with little effort. Think next time in this town I'll find a fast food chain. read more

Don't call in orders, I was double charged 3 times, using my debit card. I called the establishment 3 times, no success in resolving issue.

Great food and wonderful customer service. I always get the small Stromboli and it never disappoints

Terrible customer service. 1st time trying delivery to find out Zeko's has zero issues delivering burnt food along with wrong orders.

Me and my sister went here to eat yesterday she order the chicken parmesan and spaghetti she found a big shard of glass in her food about the size of a thumb nail that cut her gum and the inside of her cheek . She brought it to the managers attention immediately and they tried to blame her for the incident as if she brought the glass in with her ..and intentionally put it in her food she had only taken a few bites of her food before the incident I also had had only ate 3 bites of my food they only discounted her plate of food and took no responsibility for the incident ..stating they had no glass products in their kitchen read more

A family favorite. Love their Stromboli and their cheese steak sandwiches.The chicken broccoli pasta is also great. I don't know their secret, but their ranch dressing is the best I've ever tasted. Open on Sundays after church also. Give them a try. read more

I came to this restaurant because it seemed like it was the only one open on a Sunday evening. I ordered a 14" cheese pizza while my friend ordered a spaghetti. We had to wait 40 minutes for our food because apparently they completely over burnt the first cheese pizza they made for me. When they served the spaghetti for my friend they forgot to bring out the garlic bread with it. We had to get the waitress and specifically ask for it. On a positive note, the pizza tasted good and the waitress made sure I never ran out of diet coke. read more

their food is great. Whiteville is a very small town and it's very hard to find open places all day long.They are always open and their pizza and stromboli are GREATTTTTTTTTT.... read more

Service was great.... food was flavorless...you would think for an Italian restaurant they would use some oregano or basil in their sauces. I had the small meat pizza...sorry Charlie, the crust was dull the sauce was flavorless, the cheese was melted and had about the only taste in the entire meal. Chicken wings-hot sauce tasted like watered down Texas Pete. Wings where large and cooked just right. My father in law had the spaghetti and meatballs...he said he had better tasting sauce from a can...very bland Salad bar - limited selection of items. Again...service excellent...food very boring and bland. read more

Ordered pizza, salad and wings. Nothing was good! Lettuce was wilted with brown edges and tomatoes were borderline spoiled. Called for manager and left several messages and Never got a call back. Don't go there. read more

My sister, who is 8 months pregnant with twins, and I both ordered chicken alfredo. It tasted like a frozen dinner meal from the grocery store. It was digusting and neither of us could stomach it. Our two toddlers wouldn't even eat it and kept making faces. When we complained to the waitress she sent out the owner who proceeded to yell and make a scene in the restaurant, yelling at my pregnant sister. Rude, unprofessional, bad customer service, and disgusting food. read more

This is my favorite lunch spot. The food is sooooo good. I could eat their house chips everyday. I try something new every time I go. And I must say, I have not been disappointed yet! Oh and try the chicken bites, it's not on the menu but if you like a little kick you need to try it!! read more

ordered breadsticks and got charged $5.25, got 3 little knots of bread without marinara sauce and had no taste and bread was soggy and hard... definitely disappointed! read more

I love the new place. Service was great, food was delicious. Recommend it. I had eaten at the old place which was an old Pizza Hut I believe. New place is nice. Management seems to be on top of their stuff. read more

I began eating at Zeko's with my family a few years back and I fell in love with the strombolis and the pizza. In the small town of Whiteville, it is my favorite place to eat. The menu has a wide variety of items that can fit the wants and needs of everyone. The family that owns Zeko's is very friendly and make you feel right at home. I visit Zeko's every chance I get! read more

Horrible experience. Called restaurant to place a to-go order. First call, waitress answered phone said "HOLD ON " placed me on hold without any other communication. Held on for approx. 2 minutes. Hung up. Called back. line busy. called third time phone was answered and immediately hung up on. Called fourth time, finally got through. Are you wondering why I would go to this trouble to eat at Zeko's. I was picking up dinner for my daughter and her family. Zekos's was the choice they had made for dinner. If it was me I wouldn't have called back the second time. I placed my order and Zeko's employee told me it would be ready in 25 - 30 minutes. The order was placed at 6:35 pm. I arrived at Zeko's @ 7:10 pm. I was told my order wasn't ready - waiting on the wings. 10 minutes later ( 45 min total ) food still not ready. I told employee if the food wasn't ready in 2 minutes I was leaving. Miracles do happen, food was ready as I was ready to walk out the door. Employee brought out the food, set it on the counter and rang me up $47.00 Finally left Zeko's with food 50 minutes after the order was placed. Drove 10 minutes to daughter's home. Placed food on table and cell phone rang, it was Zeko's. They told me I had FORGOT part on my order. Even though they handed me my food after paying and absolutely no other food was brought from the back and no other food was in sight I was the one that FORGOT part of my order. We checked the order and It was totally screwed up. Got the manager on the phone. I thought he understood all of the mistakes in the order and he agreed to delivery the remaining portion of my order. Agreed to meet driver at a church down the road. My daughter rode with me and she checked the order when the driver met us at the church. Order was still screwed up, 2 Cheesebreads instead of 2 cheese sticks. Remember the wings, well the wings are not right either. However, the manager was thoughtful enough to send ONE SLICE OF CHEESECAKE TO FEED 6 PEOPLE AT NO CHARGE. We finally sat down to eat at 9:00 pm NEVER AGAIN read more

Despite the previous negative reviews decided to try it out while in town for work. Came here early evening, only one other table of customers. Building does have an old musty smell and wood paneling. Food was pretty good and reasonably priced Special was a 16" 1 topping pizza for $5.99. I had the shrimp cacciatore which was pretty tasty and $8.99. Side salad is pretty standard iceberg, tomatoes, and cucumbers but was really fresh. Waitress was friendly and attentive . read more

Today was the third consecutive time I have been to this restaurant where he service has been. All three times it has taken at least 10-15 minutes for somenone to get our drink orders and a tota time of an hour or more for us to get our food. Today was the first time I walked out because of thee air time. No one seems to know who is waiting on what table. As a former waitress I know this is bad management and lack of assigned tables for the servers. No one should be waiting an hour to get food. If you don't want to wait an hour for food, this is not the place to go. I don't usually write reviews, but today will be my last day going here unless I go with a large group or my husband just wants to go do kicks. I believe this establishment's service and food were much better before they moved to a "fancier" building. It's not about the bells and whistles. That doesn't make your restaurant. read more

ordered lasagna dinner and appetizer called pizza rolls. Pizza rolls tasted like barbecue chicken wrapped in pizza dough lasagna was pasty and tasteless. I wasn't happy last time I ate there and thought I would try again. Don't waste your money the place only seems to get worse. read more

Decor was horrible. Too dark. The place was nasty. Food was bad. The manicotti was luke warm, too sweet and no meat in the meat sauce. The filling was a watery mess of "idon't know what". The garlic bread was a joke....three mini rolls, no garlic. No offer of Parma cheese. Server never came back to ask how it was or offer more tea. NEVER again! read more
