31 Best Italian Restaurants near Grove City

“Got family dinner deal with Fettuccine Alfredo, and upgraded the other entree to the Baked Spaghetti with Meatballs. And it came with bread sticks. Ordered it for take out. Food was ready when we arrived, hot, and tasted very good! Fast, friendly service.Parking: Large parking lot with plenty of spaces. Also has Drive-thru/drive up window.Kid-friendliness: (From previous observations) They bring food to the table, which is especially good for families or parents who have children with them. They have typical crayons and worksheets/coloring pages for kids to keep them occupied.“

“It seems like no one is ever here, but this place has the best pizza in Grove City. Try the super cheese thing, it's amazing. Huge slices, great toppings, fast service. Good salads too.Dietary restrictions: They offer gluten-free crust, which is nice.“

“i was here around 5pm Saturday with my boyfriend (he’s the one who asked for spaghetti with my avocado piada, ?). staff had a fantastic sense of humor, were warm and welcoming, well-mannered and kind. the food is $$$, but i’d return just for the employees.“

“A little disappointed with the food. My mom ordered a panini, and they brought her a folded and grilled piece of bread as a sandwich--their press was broken. Perhaps that should have been mentioned up front? My club sandwich was a little dry.“

“This was my first time trying olive garden. My cousin introduced me to the chicken Alfredo which I was skeptic about becuase I have an egg allergy. Many places use egg whites in the sauce or use egg noodles so we always have to ask ahead what the ingredient are. To my delighted surprise they are very allergen friendly, made sure there was no cross contamination and the best part is the sauce nor noodles had egg and it was seriously some of the best Alfredo I've tried from a restaurant. Not greesy or overcompensating for flavor. This was packed full of flavor. Idk what kind of cheese they use other than parmesan but damn it was really tasty and the chicken was soft. Been thinking about it since I tried it and will be getting again soon. 10/10“

“Beautiful restaurant, delicious food, and incredible service. Working in hospitality I pay close attention to service and rarely am I blown away, but this was an exception. My S/O and I always decide on a rating at the end of the meal and this was the first 10/10 experience (we are harsh critics lol). I can't wait to come back when the patio opens! Also... do yourself a favor and get the gelato.“

“Beautiful, cozy, romantic location. Service was personal, prompt, and our waitress easily explained dishes to us. Food quality and portions are excellent. Food is so fresh, flavors blend in very thoughtful and unique dishes. It started pouring rain while we were enjoying dessert. What a lovely experience, we will be back and highly recommend.“

“This place is very nice inside. They have a good gluten free selection. The waiter gave me a whole pitcher of tea, that was nice. The atmosphere was kind of like being in Italy and it was very clean and fancy. They definitely gave great service. It seems like a good place for a date or family time. The prices were not that high either. They made me a gluten free pizza and free GF bread.Dietary restrictions: They have a pretty extensive gluten free menu that is clearly marked on the main menu, a plus for me.“

“Parking: street parking or paid lots nearby Food: food was okay - my dish (sweet potato gnocchi) was pretty lukewarm when it came out and didn't have much flavor, but someone had the lasagna which came out piping hot & looked delicious, and another person ordered the short rib which was delicious. Service: was good! Seating: mostly indoor seating“

“Great experience. The food was delicious service was great and price was reasonable. Had the meatball sub just like mom use to make! Their homemade pasta sauce is outstanding. Highly recommend if your looking for a good Italian meal at a good price.“

“Ordered Pizza and Special Salad for my Birthday Lunch here at work, it was a short wait and pizza was still warm when it got here, the pepperoni is crisp and flavorful, the toppings were abundant and it tasted so good, I will jump on the band wagon and say that you have to try the Special Salad, OMG! It seems simple but so different and tasty! Definetly recommend this place!“

“Food and service were so great. We were so welcome and weren’t rushed at all.The mocktails were delicious and complex. The burrata was delicious. The sausage ragu pasta was incredibly flavorful (also the portion was generous).The bomboloni dessert was outstanding — orange dark chocolate with hazelnuts!!I would definitely come back here.“

“First time visiting and we had a great time. We sat at the bar with a few friends and Abbie did amazing job with us. She was very attentive to our group as well as working the full bar and restaurant drink orders. We had beverages, appetizers and dinner. The food was great and all our orders were correct. Look forward to next visit.“

“I went in with high expectations and left underwhelmed. Everything was good, but not great. I would eat here again... but I was not blown away and although Columbus is lacking when it comes to great Italian restaurants, I do think there are better options.“

“This was a great experience from start to finish. Alec took care of us and was well informed on the entire menu. My partner and I choose the four course option. Great selection with a wide selection of wine. My favorite dish being the gnocchi, and Bianco Vento Sant Eustachio for our wine selection. We were even greeted by the gm Liz, who made sure our time there was enjoyable.“

“Great little Italian restaurant. Family run for at least the past 35-40 years?❤️❤️Parking: Parking out front and on the side will fill up during peak hours. Behind the store is parking for a nearby shopping center. It’s a very small walk from restaurant to plenty of parking if you can’t find a spot up front.“

“Tony’s is like walking into a family party at your Nonna’s. The lounge has a couch and coffee table up against the bar and you feel like you’re home. The food is old school, solid, comfort Italian. The staff is fantastic. Each one is nicer and more attentive than the next. I’ve eaten here numerous times and the host is a quintessential gentleman. He pulls my chair out and waves my husband to his seat. The home made pastas are great. I have so many favorites that I just keep on coming back. It reminds me of the little restaurants in New York where you can just stay and eat and feel satiated. Delicious!“

“Super friendly associate. Made a beautiful salad and breadsticks. Spinach salad tasted incredible and was so colorful. Bread sticks were so artistic and fresh . Tiramisu was also very delicious and fresh. Plants are gorgeous, so healthy and welcoming.“

“I have been wanting to try Josie's Pizza Hilltop for a long time and finally got to have it. Ordered the Garlic Bread with Cheese and Sauce with a Garden Salad with Marzetti's Dijon Honey Mustard dressing. The salad was great with the dressing. The Garlic Bread with Cheese was the cheesiest garlic they have ever seen along with the most pepperoni on the Old Fashion Pepperoni pizza. I had the Combination pizza with Pepperoni, Sausage, Green Peppers, mushrooms, and onions; but did not see the Pepperoni and Sausage. Overall the Pizzas were delicious and worth going back to Josie's again soon. The service was great and talked with 1-2 employees about couples coming to Josie's Pizza Hilltop as a Sunday night tradition. It is a small place but with some seats, but there is a table that can accommodate 12 people to a table that can be used for a birthday party or family gathering. I will go back to Josie's Pizza Hilltop soon for the Old Fashion Pepperoni pizza.“

“LOVED the focaccia bread they brought out before dinner, the oil they brought to dip it in had rosemary and other fresh herbs in it. Dinner was yummy! Good Italian, nothing out of this world but a safe bet if you’re wanting something tasty.“

“Minelli's is a Westside icon. The one on Sullivant Ave closed a few years back, but the owner still makes the wonderful homemade noodles for the Wilson Road Minelli's. Yes, the decor could be updated, and the plastic tableclothes replaced before the red checkers totally disappear, but you can't beat the food. From subs to hamburgers, lasagna to pizza...and even fish, it's all tasty. It's best to go for lunch, though, where the waitress is superb. She can waitress solo for a full house and still have the drinks and food out quickly. Actually, I'm amazed at her talent. Evenings are hit and miss for dine in, and it's likely that service will be slow.“

“I've reviewed several Dicarlos outside the Valley. Most people from there say Elm Grove and Wellsburg are the gold standard for Dicarlos locations, and I agree.This pizza from the Columbus location is just as good, especially for one outside the Valley. All of them have been good, but Columbus is perfection.It's tough to get parking nearby, so plan for that. But if you love Dicarlos, the Columbus location will satisfy. I live 2 hours away and will go back.“

“I highly recommend Grandma's Pizza on Parsons. The staff is great and friendly. The pizza is delicious and reasonably priced. I usually order between 16-20 large pizzas, and they have always had them fresh and ready to go on time. Yesterday, I called them at 3:45pm and asked them if they could do 20 larges ready for pick-up at 5:45pm and they had it done. They are my go-to place for pizza on the south end of Columbus.“

“My husband and I visited Trattoria Roma this past Sunday and had a wonderful server. We made a reservation for 4:00 (when they opened) but arrived a little earlier, and she was nice enough to let us in to get seated. Seems like a fairly small, family-owned restaurant as her daughter was friendly and also attended to us. Decor is nice, dim lighting, semi-romantic. Food was decent but I'll admit, bland for Italian. My favorite course was probably my Caesar salad with anchovies added for an upcharge. We also got the bruschetta and arancini (no herbs at all in the marinara sauce) as appetizers. For the entrees, he ordered the Taste of Italy trio with lasagna, chicken Parmesan and angel hair Alfredo. I got a full order of lasagna. Both of us said the same, it wasn't bad but lacked a real depth of flavor mainly because they don't seem to use any fresh herbs in their marinara. Overall ok dinner, but too many other Italian places on my list to try for me to return any time soon.“

“The food is amazing! Authentic Italian and my favorite dish is arrabbiata over penne with fresh mozzarella and a Sanpellegrino as my drink! The owner is so kind- I have been eating here since 2010. Love you guys!Kid-friendliness: Absolutely amazing customer service!“

“Took my children for dinner last evening. The staff were EXTREMELY nice, and the gentleman who checked me/us out at register was very helpful with adding a gift card that was too old for their system to utilize, and he still gave me credit... came out to our table to check on us after we sat down... and the food: 3 o/o 3 of us enjoyed our pasta bowls. Nice work, Hilliard Piada!“

“Hands down my favorite Pizza shop. Family members from out of town always request a pizza from Mama Mimi's when visiting. Tiffany is always wonderful and very helpful with ordering. I've never had a pizza from here I didn't like, but my favorites are the Rajun Cajun and the Marmelletta Amore. The Lasagna is also amazing.“

“Great Pizza! Hidden gem really. Small town dairy corner with an owner that's gotta have some Italian in him, because his pizza is simply great! Drive past the pizza spots in my hometown to get Lombardi's, I'd recommend you do the same.“

“Bistrolino is a hidden gem IMO. I’m also amazed by the quality of the food and service given that the prices are very reasonable. It was 14-18 for most entrees. They weren’t giant sized but didn’t leave me wanting more and were delicious! The eggplant Parmesan was awesome. I met the owner Sam who seemed like a really nice guy who was very appreciative that we were at his restaurant. The vibe of the restaurant is cool too, and there’s a bar attached to it. It looks like a repurposed old home in German Village in the best way. This one is an easy sell, come here and try it out!“

“I've actually ordered from this establishment through Uber eats. I've also visited in person. I ordered the all meat pizza and it was delicious. I also appreciate how late they are open, especially on Fridays and Saturdays, yummy yummy yummy.“

“stopped by the north market to look for something to eat. I saw the pizza and I was somewhat skeptical because the pizza looked cold. I ordered anyway. The workers actually reheated each slice in the oven and It ended up being some of the best pizza I have had. it was hot and cheesy and the crust was very crispy. Sat down and ate it and talked to the lady that owns it and she is very passionate about her business. 10/10 definitely would recommend. Looking forward to eating here again.“
