Raleigh, NC is a long way from Reading, PA, yet Amedeo "Dick" DeAngelis made the trek to play football for the mighty NC State Wolfpack in 1954. Playing on a scholarship, he was a long way from home and he greatly missed "home cooking". The idea of opening a small Italian restaurant seemed the most effective way to alleviate the longing. He utilized homemade recipes from his mother and grandmother and in 1963, a 12-seat restaurant opened on Western Boulevard in Raleigh. Since that time Dick, along with his mother, wife Betty, children, and grandchildren and many loyal employees have expanded "Amedeo's" into a premier eating establishment with a seating capacity now of over 200!

This restaurant lacks everything! Good management, cooks, service, cleanliness, EVERYTHING! There were roaches on the floor and its not the 1st time I have heard of that. Someone needs to shut that place down! We were rudely treated and will not be visiting again.
This restaurant is well worth the drive. The atmosphere was relaxing and the servers were most accommodating. The amount of food was above the expected and the taste was amazing! I would recommend this dining experience to everyone!
Was a great place, now declining....prices went up, portions went down. I mean $6.00 for a meatball (kids meal w/1, adult portion has 2 & is 6.00 more)...worst part was owner (Anthony) not taking any care about the service or lack thereof, he's just
...
Love it here. Karaoke on Tuesday's is awesome, and there's always something going on. Food's pricey for not getting sides but drink's are usually fair priced.
