Talk Of The Town Italian Restaurant
Talk of The Town is your neighborhood Italian Restaurant. We wanted to bring good food to the Sunset Beach and Ocean Isle Beach area and have a place that you would feel comfortable dining at any night of the week. We source some of the best ingredients you can find and deliver those ingredients with an authentic New York Experience.

We hosted a Valentines Day event for our neighborhood and Dawn and the entire team at Talk of the Town did an amazing job. Their attention to detail and making sure all our needs were met, along with fabulous service, and plentiful and delicious food made our event a memorable one. Thanks for a fantastic evening.

New Year's Eve dinner was phenomenal! Chicken Marsala for the better half, and Eggplant Parmesan for me. Some nice Chianti to wrap it up. Our server ( Corrine ) was top shelf and the owner/hostess constantly checked on us. The meal was complete with live music. Truly a memorable meal. Looking forward to many more in 2022. Happy New Year!

Coming from the Northeast we were told we would not enjoy Italian food like home, well, they were wrong! The food was delicious and the bread was just as good as New Jersey. We will be back and make this our regular spot as new residents.

We tried talk of the town for the first time with our neighbors. We went early. 530 and enjoyed a wonderful dinner. The big crowds were not there yet. All four of us enjoyed our meals immensely. The wine choice was perfect. The service was perfect as well. Since then, we have also ordered takeout and the food has been consistently delicious. We moved here last year from New Jersey and so we are quite spoiled when it comes to Italian food! Very satisfied with talk of the town!!!

Best lasagna I have had in 15+ years! It was incredible! The ingredients were so fresh! Fresh made ricotta, homemade marinara that had just the right balance of acidity & garlic, tender fresh meat that just melted in my mouth & mozzarella that could not have been melted more perfectly!
It was fantastic!

I went to this place about a week ago to celebrate a special occasion with a group of friends.We got placed in the bar section of the restaurant where there was poor lighting and poor ambiance. For a top rated Italian restaurant, the food served to us was far from good. The manicotti had way too much cheese, and the chicken picotta tasted like lemon juice. The vodka in the penne vodka was not reduced, and I could taste the alcohol very strongly. This is a very expensive restaurant for poor quality food and small portions. Additionally, splitting a meal between you and a friend costs $5. I would

Based upon a neighbors recommendation, we visited this restaurant and found the food and service to be very good. Excellent Veal Saltimbocca and an excellent shrimp, clam, mussel over linguine dish that was a special. Great prices as well. We will return.

Heard great things. Greeted by Dawn, the owner, who was very friendly. Quick to table we reserved. I noticed large space between seats and tables for those Covid concerned.

Sue, the server, was very friendly. Answered every question and even checked on some items since we don't eat pork. We had veal and chicken. Nice portions and freshly made. Fresh tomato sauce, basil and herbs. Menu was reasonably priced for portions and quality. Would return again.

People in from out of town. We picked up dinner for five of us. The chicken parm along with the angel hair pasta was great. Homemade marinara very good. The Lasagna was fabulous and so was the Eggplant parm. Meatballs good as well. We will be back to Talk Of The Town. liked the Frank Sinatra music playing in there too.

We have been wanting to try this place for a while. I highly suggest it, we had a great meal. Service was wonderful. Staff was friendly. Portions were large. I wish they would up their advertising on social media. I did not know until we went that they have happy hour specials and they also could post their daily specials as well.

First visit and we really enjoyed it. Arrived a little early so waited at the bar listening to a little music. Very relaxing. Dinner was wonderful. Lasagna was delicious. Linguine and clams great. The hostess wasn't very welcoming and the dining room decor a little stark. But still giving 5 stars because the meal, the waitress the music all deserve 5 stars.

We dined here on Valentine's Day, 2021. First disappointment was that the ladies didn't receive a red rose! Every restaurant we've been to in this area has ALWAYS given a red rose to the ladies. COVID measures were taken with masks. Restaurant was nicely appointed in Valentine's Day decorations. Menu was limited & full menu was not available. Waitress wasn't aware of what we ordered exactly. There were requests for items that were omitted. As for the entree, which was veal parmigiana, the "'marinara/ sauce" was way too sweet! Not very appealing! A member

Just finished an awesome eggplant parm dinner with a Mediterranean Salad from Talk of the Town and it was faboulous.
Moved out of the NYC area in 1989 and dinner felt like I ordered from our local Bronx Italian Restaurant!
"Thank you Talk of the Town! "

Finally had the opportunity to try this place literally down the road from our house. Nice, cozy joint in a strip mall. Unpretentious decor, Dean and Frank playing on the sound system. Husband had the veal saltimbocca, which he declared delicious. I had the linguine and clam sauce. The dish was good, but the sauce could have been a bit more robust. Not sure what was missing -- definitely some salt, but something else a little bit more. But, not complaining, all in all it was quite good. We started with an order of the calamari, which was breaded nicely but could have been fried just a tad bit more

We decided to try this restaurant tonight for take-out and were very pleased with the quality and portion. I stepped away from my usual favorite Italian dishes and ended up living the pasta dish I tried with penne, Italian sausage and broccoli.The staff was nice and food was ready quickly. They are open at 50% capacity right now, so give them a try! I will definitely be going back.
