   Sadly, it was raining, so most seating was inside. We were seated at a table right next to the woman's restroom. The sound of the hand dryers was SO loud. We asked to be moved and our awesome waiter took care of that as soon as a table opened. The food was ok, but not like the first few times we were there.

   Our experience here was amazing!! From the arancini, to the drinks, to the gnocchi and spinach raviolis! Everything was delicious! Our waiter Brandon was wonderful! He was informative and so friendly! Oh! How could I forgot the creme brûlée!? I literally get it every time for desert and having it for the first time at Mulino’s, by far the BEST. I can’t wait to go back and enjoy the outside!

   This place was phenomenal. It was my husbands birthday and he loved the outside scenery, the environment and especially the delicious lasagna. The spinach ravioli was everything I expected. The calamari was very tasty and the bread was omg yummy! We could not leave without the cannoli’s which were rich, creamy and just perfect. You can def tell it was all authentic. It was a bit windy but overall a great experience. Looking forward to sitting in next time! 10/10!!

    It was a family member’s birthday and we made the reservation 2 weeks earlier. We were a party of 10 and were given a table outside that was very tight and in the corner next to the hostess station. The food was not as good as the last time we were there. Server was great. Over all i was disappointed

    We had not been to Mulino's in a while, and decided to go and celebrate a friends birthday. It was a beautiful evening and we sat outside, which was delightful! Our waiter was so helpful and accomodating. We all enjoyed our cocktails, meals and desserts. Could not have been better.

    We have been to this establishment several times and always had a positive experience. This night was not up to par. We were given a wobbly table facing a storage area. While the overall venue is pretty there was no need to give us an out of the way table with a poor view. We ordered a beet salad and it was primarily just greens with a couple small pieces of beets. Previously, it has been much more generous. The server offered to bring more beets but we had already finished and our entrees were on the way. We did convey we were disappointed with salad. She said she was sorry. Perhaps they could have taken off the bill. On the way out we expressed our displeasure of our table with the manager and she thanked us for our feedback. Perhaps she could have made us feel important and offer us something or at least an assurance she would take care of next time. We do think the restaurant is a beautiful venue but did not feel well treated on this night. One last thing when the specials were explained to us it sounded like they ran out of items due to the wedding they had just had. The specials were basically how they had no potatoes and no chicken breasts. We will be back but probably not soon.

    salmon was undercooked and carbonara was suuuper salty. Maybe I ordered the wrong thing, but this seems like a place to go just for the atmosphere.

    I went on a first date here and it was the perfect place for it. The weather was amazing so we sat outside and enjoyed the sunshine. We ordered drinks and some bread with oil and that set the mood for the main course. Our entrées were absolutely delicious. I ordered the gnocchi and she ordered the spinach ravioli. We shared with each other because they were both that good. Mulino is easily one of the best Italian restaurants in the area and one of the best I’ve ever had in my life. Next time I’m in the area I will be having dinner here for sure.

    This is the third time we've been to Mulinos. Service was excellent. Seated right way. Apps, the frito misto and the bread were good. There were four of us and we all thought our main dishes were just mediocre. My husband had the gnocchi and I had the risotto of the day which was a saffron and tomato sauce. The other two had the Bolognese pasta. The risotto was lacking flavor. The scallops I added (there were 3) were tasty. Everyone was a bit disappointed based on previous visits during which everything was excellent. It was NC State graduation weekend, which may have been the reason, but one would think they would be used to handling busy weekends.
