Italian Cuisine
The immense popularity of Italian cuisine globally isn't unknown. You can find an Italian Pizzeria around every corner of almost every city in the United States. Not to forget that in every house, people enjoy mac and cheese as comfort food. But it would be wrong to believe that Italian food starts with pizza and ends with good pasta as this Mediterranean country has much more to offer other than these two dishes. In Italian Cuisine, there is a high use of fresh tomatoes, all kinds of herbs, great quality of cheese, all types of meat, seafood and fresh handmade pasta. Many find it hard to believe that Italians have been making noodles long back.
Italian and Greek cuisines are always mistaken to be same, but they are poles apart. The primary difference between the two cuisines is the use of cheese in most of the Italian dishes. Italians love to cultivate their own cheese and process them as per their food requirement. It is believed that some cheese is so expensive that cheese producers secure them in lockers.
If you are bored eating the same old pasta or pizza, you can try some of the authentic Italian dishes like Risotto, Polenta, Ribollita, Lasagna, Fiorentina Steak, Bottarga, Ossobuco, Carbonara, Focaccia, Arancini and Supplì. Another item which Italians love to relish every morning is a good cup of Italian Coffee. Once you taste a freshly brewed cup of Italian Coffee, you might not visit Starbucks ever again. Authentic Italian food is made with heart and soul, so go find a restaurant where you can relish Italian cuisine in your city.

Tradewinds food is fantastic. Defiitely heed the warning about making a reservation. You can get in sometimes without one if you go at 5pm, but otherwise you'd better call ahead. The Al Quatro Formaggio pizza is to die for!

Tradewinds is the local's secret restaurant around here. Italian food is the main cuisine here, but there are a few non-Italian dishes. The building is very interesting because it is a mobile home (although you can't really tell from the inside or out). First, if you want to get a table, then you MUST call and get a reservation. I have once gotten in with no reservation, but I wouldn't suggest it. Save yourself the trouble and call. What I like about the place: - Atmosphere. It is small and cozy. Reminiscent of some hole-in-the-wall Italian restaurants when I lived in Italy. - Beer selection. Awesome. - Service was quick and pleasant. The staff and management were very nice and even suggested different dishes when I let it slip that I didn't like my meal. What I didn't like about the place: - Food. It wasn't that impressive. I have had three different dishes there, and I was underwhelmed (especially considering every one of my friends raves about it). It isn't authentic Italian (I should know because I lived in Italy), but it is passable and pleasant. I will continue to go back because I like the people there, the beer selection, and my friends like it a lot. The food is better than decent, but not enough for me to get ecstatic over.

Ok a few years back a good friend of ours who lives here in town took us there. It was great, a lotta cramp and slow service and loud and a little warm but the food was awesome. Hence forth we went and went and then one night over a year ago our service was awful, terrible, took us almost 2.5 hours to get finished and we always always ordered the same thing. NOW tonight we are staying here for a couple of months and after our friend quit going and he was out of town we thought lets give it another try We went in or out should I say to our waiting table on the porch. The oil dipping bowl was there and was cold so waited about 10min for her to bring it back with the bread to be direct we started playing a game together on our phones.She showed back up with oil and ask what we wanted to drink, we stated sweet tea for both, and again ten min or more got unsweet tea which we just grabbed packets of sugar off table and added that. As I stated we knew what we wanted and it was as before, so this time we got our order placed and she showed back up about 12-15min later and brought salads to tell us our order was delayed. When the original lady seated us she stated they were not busy on this night because we knew her from before. i CANNOT BELIEVE HOW LONG IT TOOK FOR THE MAIN DINNER TO SHOW UP. We ate and mine was good. Mine was $15.95 and my husbands veal picatta was 17.95. I got 2 chicken breast and mine was cheaper. He got one piece of veal for $18~~~..... ok... refills of tea, more sugar, and then the bill finally came after people that came in AFTER us had left and probably shopped and was home in bed. I was disqusted... My husband was about to walk in and ask and she comes out with another excuse that Tom had to help her with computer! Ok how did the other folks leave then because like i said we were there way before them.When we got in the car I ask my husband how much the bill was he said 43. I said why? I mean 34 was our total. I looked and for 2$ each tea and $3 was charged xtra. I find out because they offer kalamata olives ( i got 3 chopped) $2 and my husband ask the girl if could have xtra capers because all the times before there were few. Oh ok i buy capers and kalamatas and i can get 5 times what i got on my salad. The salad is so small it shouldnt break even McDonalds bank for 3 olives. No problem . From 34 to 44 (43.36 to be fair) ill make dinner at home and not take a chance on getting out of this washed away dirt yard you should only drive a big truck lifted thru. If you can dodge the holes in it. Needless to say im sad for such good food to have such SUCKY service, the worst service and the amount of excuses possibly known from a waiter. Too many great places to eat and there is always that here in this area.

Tradewinds is generally only open for dinner - but if you are planning a lunch of some sort with less than maybe 50 people they accomadate those. I've eaten here for several of these lunches but never for dinner - I probably should. The food is delicious and well priced and the atmosphere is neat! Tradewinds does little advertising and sits back off the road because they can -- they're that good that people come to them. I would definitely reccomend this for a lunch party and definitely look forward to dinner. Try the ravioli.. mmmmm

The Italian food there is incredible. The setting is interesting since it used to be a house from what I can tell. Unfortunately that doesn't leave room for many tables so seating is cramped. I'm giving it five stars because you just can't go wrong with the menu.

We ate here 10/14/2011 after it was highly recommended by many foodies. I have never been so disappointed. The atmosphere could be nice if the cooks weren't slamming pans and yelling at each other the entire time. Unfortunately when a restaurant has an open kitchen noises that the chefs make will resonate throughout the entire restaurant. And when chefs are basically throwing temper-tantrums in the kitchen it will render one's restaurant experience jarring, and uncomfortable. However, knowing how good the food was supposed to be allowed me to overlook this while I was anxiously waiting for my food. The service was slow. 2 hours after getting seated we were finally eating. The service was horrible. There were 4 servers for 10-15 tables (at most, so having waited tables I see that as a very small number per server), and ours forgot we had appetizers and drink orders. But all of this was fine and our party waited patiently in expectation of a great meal. While we waited we noticed the cooks were drinking more and more beer in the kitchen and getting louder and louder. At one point one cook burned someone's dinner cussed about it and had to start over. When our food came it was like slop. I had crabcakes, which were ungodly awful (I have had better frozen crabcakes). To start they were stone cold. Almost burned on the outside and completely cold on the inside. Yum. Had they been cooked they still would have been awful b/c the seasoning that was used made the crab taste old. The pasta was awful as well. Another member in my party had the chicken piccata. Let's face it -that's a pretty hard dish to mess up. First, the chicken looked like it was boiled. It was not breaded or even sauteed -so gross. Second the sauce was like straight lemon (what happened to the butter) and was the consistency of water. Usually chicken piccata comes with an angel hair but this came with some corkscrew strange textured macaroni pasta (ew). The last member of our party had the mussels pasta. I thought this sounded amazing! However, the mussels were completely cold, and the white wine sauce was literally WHITE WINE poured over the mussels and the pasta. Um.. WHO cooked this? A 5 year old? I don't know if this was just a bizarre circumstance and the cooks were completely shitfaced, and thus messed up the food. Which if it is the case I will still not return b/c that shows a complete lack of professionalism. The owner sat there drinking beer and socializing with the staff all the while slop was being put out. On a good note we had TONS of food left over.. which would be a good thing if the food wasn't the worst thing I have ever eaten.
