"Cute little gem. The food was good and our waitress was nice. I wish the food was hotter but other than that, the vibes were great, the food and drinks were great."

"They say you should never meet your idols; maybe the same can be said for your favorite restaurants from decades ago. 411 West was one of my favorite restaurants during my undergrad and dental school days in Chapel Hill from 1990 -1998. I thought it was really fine dining (and maybe it was). When we arrived at the Carolina Inn for our daughter’s orientation, I was pleasantly surprised to learn it’s still open and suggested it for dinner. We were moderately disappointed by the food, although I thoroughly enjoyed their Peach & Prosciutto Pizza. That was by far the best entree, and the Crème Brûlée was very good as well. The Wood-Grilled Tenderloin was perfectly cooked but over-charred on one side and quite under-seasoned. It needed a fair amount of salt & pepper. My wife’s Wood-Grilled Salmon was similarly under-seasoned, even though it was also cooked to the perfect tenderness. She did enjoy the mashed potatoes. Service, location, and atmosphere were great, but most of the food didn’t have much flavor."

"Chapel Hill classic 💓 this place has been here my whole life, and it’s been good the whole time. Really delicious desserts, too."

"We enjoyed another terrific evening at 411 West. We like the cheerful environment. The interior is tastefully appointed and spacious. It is filled with guests every time we dine and is quiet enough for conversation. Tonight, we were served by Caroline, who was warm and genuine. She patiently assisted us in selecting our three course dinners. I also had the pleasure of meeting legendary bartender Trae on the advice of a mutual friend. 411 West has good vibes and is one of my favorite places to dine."

"An absolute gem — 411 West is out of this world! This restaurant delivers everything you could dream of in an Italian dining experience — gourmet, homemade pastas, fresh and beautiful salads, and a warm, cozy atmosphere that makes you want to stay for hours. Every dish is crafted with such care and flavor that you can taste the passion behind it. I’m especially proud that my cousin is the manager and lead chef here — his dedication to quality and creativity shines through every plate that comes out of the kitchen. Truly one of the best Italian restaurants I’ve ever been to. A must-visit if you’re anywhere near the area! 🍝✨"
