The food that we ate was delicious, and our server was outstanding. We have eaten Sunday Brunch a few times and have always enjoyed it immensely. However, this time, we had a reservation and went for my birthday and for Easter Brunch after church. It was insanely crowded, tables and chairs were crowding the walk ways and many of the food items were picked over or you had to wait for them to bring a fresh batch. I think that the price ($26.95) was high for how crowded it was. The normal price is $16.95 and the only items I saw added to the available choices were prime rib and lamb. The crepes Grand Marnier were outstanding as usual. I felt as though I had to fight to get food and I finally gave up and didn't eat everything I wanted to because I simply couldn't get to it.

Four of us went for Easter Sunday brunch. This is our second year doing so. The food was excellent and plentiful. The service was excellent in spite of the crowd. Check in a little slow but it was extremely busy at noon.

This is the last time I'll visit the Monkey Junction location. We love the original at Mayfair and despite living close to Carolina Beach, we will drive all the way across town rather than eating at the Monkey Junction location. This is about the third time in a row we've been let down. My wife ordered the mushroom ravioli. The pasta was near raw and stretchy like cheese. Considering that she's pregnant and raw pasta means raw egg, that's not great. It was recooked but came out the same way, so I shared my lasagna. Barely an apology and the waitress clearly saw that she was not eating it and was sharing my lasagna but didn't say a word.

Another good meal at OC. Ariel was our waitress and she was excellent. He had veal picatta and said it was excellent. I had a side salad with the pesto vinagarette - delish- and of course the mussels. Red sauce tonite, very good.

We were looking for a place relatively close to where we were staying in Wilmington to have dinner with friends at short notice on a Saturday. The menu was, of course, Italian, with a reasonable wine list. The service was okay, the food was good, the ambiance decent. It wasn't great but it wasn't disappointing. If you are in Wilmington and hungry for Italian, give Osteria Cicchetti a try.
