50 Best Italian Restaurants near St. Albert

“Outstanding Italian restaurant. It was recommended by our daughter and her husband. Can't believe we hadn't heard about it before. Huge portions served piping out and very reasonably priced. Service and atmosphere superb. We will definitely be going again and soon. 64 years old and first time we've ever put in a review. It's that good!!“

“We highly recommend Sidi for his impeccable service. He was attentive, friendly, professional, and ensured everything was perfect throughout our dinner. His exceptional customer service truly elevated our Father's Day celebration and made our dining experience even more memorable.
This wasn't our first time dining at Sorrentino's St. Albert, but with Sidi taking care of us, we had an outstanding experience. Thank you, Sidi, for making us feel so welcomed and valued. We will definitely be back! ❤🙏✨“

“Great food and great service. A really good experience,“

“Real food made with love. We just enjoyed a wonderful dinner with friends. The appetizers, bruschetta, and calamari, were excellenet. A simple but delicious broccoli salad was a wonderful surprise. A very generous portion of a traditional and tasty Pollo parmigiana was my main and it was delicious. The creme brulee and tiramisu for dessert were prepared perfectly. Such a great meal, we will be back soon. Thank you Tony, Danielle, and your team for such a great dining experience.“

“What a fantastic dining experience! Not only was the food amazing, my wife and I really enjoyed the overall atmosphere of this beautifully decorated restaurant. Both the owner and server were very attentive, and came around to ensure we were enjoying the food. I definitely recommend this gem in St.Albert“

“Pretty much the go-to place for meeting people downtown, as it's local, central, and pretty good quality. Nothing really blows my mind, but it's just as good as any corporate place in terms of coffee. A bit noisy when busy, but overall, good vibe.“

“Buco absolutely deserves 5 stars! The food was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with high-quality ingredients. Every bite was delicious! Twice in a row I was lucky enough to have Rose as my server. I cannot praise her enough! She was warm, welcoming, and attentive throughout the meal. Service was fast, and she made sure everything was perfect. The ambiance was clean and comfortable making it a great spot for both quick bites and relaxed meals. Prices were reasonable considering the quality of the food and experience. I appreciate that they have gluten & dairy free options for appetizers, main courses and desserts. I’m hope they start offering vegan cheeses for their pizzas (and bring back their smoked salmon pizza that was to die for) I'll definitely be coming back and recommending it to others.“

“I want to thank Boston Pizza for what they did for my friend. My friend went out to eat with her mother in law and they both live in Drayton Valley when the staff found out where they were from the meal was on the house. They went above and beyond my friend and her mother in law have been through so much so thank you Boston Pizza.“

““This Pizza Hut never disappoints – the crust is always fresh and perfectly baked. 🍕
Toppings are generous, flavors are spot on, and service is quick and friendly.
Definitely my go-to place for delicious, reliable pizza every time!“

“My son celebrated his engagement here, and from start to finish, the owner Cristo and his team were exceptional. They were accommodating, kind, supportive, and provided outstanding service. The food was phenomenal—full of flavor and truly authentic Italian. It was a wonderful evening, and having the singer added a special touch that made the night even more memorable and enjoyable. Thank you to everyone at Amore Cafe for creating such a beautiful and unforgettable celebration for my son, his fiancée, and all of our guests! :)“

“The hosts are very friendly and accommodating. I have chosen to go to Bravo Pizza as it is very close to my work, I am able to eat in under an hour. I have tried a number of different dishes and have liked them all. When I enter the restaurant I am greeted right away by the hosts ( who call me boss, which I like very much).. The alfredo tortellini is my favourite along with the chicken soup. Also the pepperoni pizza Lawrence - Edmonton“

“Well I wasn’t expecting such an amazing experience! A great lunch, such caring staff and a happy pleasant visit. The value is fantastic quite honestly, and although they had lunch specials, we all opted for meals. No pictures this time, the pasta was good. The basil balsamic salad dressing was excellent and the Mithizra cheese pasta (I did the pot-pourri), reminded me of coming here when I was much younger. Thank you all for the great experience!“

“Having wanted to try this restaurant for quite some time so we decided to plan a tip into Edmonton (from out of town). It was above and beyond what we had expected. Our sever was very personable and cared about making our dining experience great! (All the “spicy” sauces separately on the side LOL). Sorry we didn’t catch your name but thank you so much!! The food was incredible! Every appetizer, main course, and dessert did not disappoint! The schnitzel was definitely our favourite. We are already looking forward to our next visit!“

“Beautiful, cozy, laid back atmosphere. The Ricotta hazelnut pancakes are absolutely addictive!! Staff are super welcoming and rather wonderful! You have to try at least one of their concoctions if you're in the city!!“

“So love this place. If you are ever looking to cater a dinner or just pick up lunch it is completely worth it! Highly recommended!!! #bucasandpastas #localgem #shoplical #supportlocal #eatlocal #yegeats #yegrestaurant #yeglocal #yegbusiness“

“Me and my family were in Edmonton, picked Sorrentino’s because it had good reviews and it was a short walk from our hotel. We were blown away. The food is amazing. Our server, Derek, did such a great job. We asked him for menu recommendations and nothing disappointed. Prices were reasonable especially for that calibre of food and service. We will be back!“

“We had a great evening, with great food and great service! Thanks Bianco!“

“The food was very good. Large portions. Service was phenomenal, except we were a table of 10 and weren't told until after everyone had already ordered that they couldn't split the bills. Their POS system is not 'capable' of doing that. I've never heard of that before. Very frustrating when you have 5 couples that just want to pay for their own food that they ordered.“

“A huge thank you to the chefs and staff at Rigolettos for making our daughter’s First Holy Communion such a memorable occasion. The food, wine, and service were all flawless—and delicious, truly beyond our expectations. We are incredibly grateful for everything & for being so accommodating. Thank you all so much! Tina Sestito-Dragon & Family“

Everything was absolutely amazing - the food was incredibly delicious, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. The atmosphere was warm and cozy, perfect for a lovely evening together.

A special thank you to our server Bella for being so kind, attentive, and professional. She truly made us feel welcome and taken care of. We also appreciate manager Vasilisa for her hospitality and attention to detail, and bartender Myko for the fantastic drinks - everything was top-notch.

We truly enjoyed our evening and will definitely be coming back. Thank you to the whole team for such a perfect experience!“

“I ordered take out and arrived a few minutes before it said it would be ready. Everyone was attentive, kind and kept assuring me that my food would be out soon. No big deal, but I was starting to get tired from waiting. 25 minutes later my food was brought out by a manager apologizing non stop adding that he threw in an addition dessert! Was not needed but so appreciate and delicious. In the end the wait was long but the kindness of staff made the wait worth it.
Most Importantly my meal was so delicious I had the ravioli carbonara and it was amazing. Breadsticks and salad never disappoint. And the desserts, you bet I tried both! So good!“

“The service here was impeccable. Right from the start it was amazing! I asked about my reservation and requested a table and the gentleman who was doing the front came out and found me when ours was ready to go. Josephine was also one of the best servers I’ve ever had. She was super friendly, accommodating and very personable. The food was also DELICIOUS. Everyone really enjoyed their meals and the price was unbeatable. I 1000% would recommend this place to everyone.“

“We organized a set full meal with Matteo. The meal was fantastic, i really cannot complain about any of it. We had appetizers, pasta, salad and a main - of Chicken parmigiana and the sides. We were more than happy with ALL the food. The service was fantastic. It was a great time, with great food. Thank you“

“I absolutely love the pasta but unfortunately I would have to say that I would have like to have seen them change there gloves between touching the money from the previous customer and portioning out my vegetables for my create my own pasta dish and then again after I paid and moving to the next person after me. Especially right now during the pandemic but I do have to say great pasta“

“Lasagna with extra cheese“

“Very nice romantic atmosphere, fine dining, great food. Except the Aragosta Risotto. The risotto is delicious, but be aware, the "whole lobster tail" is not lobster at all. It's a very small, 2 inches long tail of a langostino, size of a prawn. For the price of the dish there should be at least 3 of them, or just serve a real whole lobster tail.“

“One of Edmonton’s best Italian restaurants.“

“Excellent food, fantastic staff... this will definitely be a new go-to spot for us!“

“Nice restaurant friendly staff. Pasta was cooked Al dente, perfectly. Surprisingly they don't have risottos on the menu. Server garnished Parmesan cheese. I had ordered the penne alla gigi, the sausage was ok in flavor. Pasta tasted decent but nothing special along with the tomato sauce.“

“Best soup and spot around!! Second to none.“

“My partner and I attended a pasta making class for our anniversary and it was PERFECT! Erika is warm, inviting, and patient. It's so fun to learn this skill (and gain a new appreciation for it) while also being spoiled with appetizers, salad, chicken, and wine... and then to eat the pasta that you made yourself with delicious sauces. We couldn't have asked for a better evening, and without a doubt, we will be back!“

“We ordered a pizza with a topping we could not have and they remade us one with no charge and delivered! Excellent customer service and the pizza was amazing!!! Thank you!!!“

“Walkin deal 3 topping pizza it was amazing and got same topping which i got in full pricy pizza“

“We had an absolutely fantastic time here. The atmosphere is cozy and elegant, with beautiful lighting that makes everything feel special.

Every dish we tried was plated with such care. The pasta was cooked perfectly, and I especially loved the small, delicate squares of ravioli that we shared. Everything was fresh and packed with flavor.

This was such a memorable evening. We will definitely be back soon to try more from the menu.“

“super friendly staff! cozy atmosphere! great pizza!!“

“Great spot for small bites and an intimate drink. The exceptional hospitality provided by Tristan during my visits is deeply missed, and I am saddened to learn of his departure. The weekly tradition of Tuesday evenings at Henry was truly a highlight of my week. I highly valued the warmth and attentiveness of his service, and I consistently felt well-cared for.“

“It was my first time to buy coffee to this place in the airport. Coffee is delicious, it had a wonderful flavour, good body , and the most important thing, it was not bitter, like coffee in other places such as Starbucks. The attention was great and very pleasant. I recommend this place“

“From the moment we walked in, we were treated like royalty. The service was beyond exceptional — attentive, warm, and truly made us feel special. Every detail was taken care of with such elegance and care. And the food? Absolutely out of this world. Every bite was a masterpiece — rich in flavour, beautifully presented, and unforgettable. This place is a hidden gem and an experience we’ll be talking about for a long time. Highly recommend to anyone looking for something truly special.“

“Excellent drinks, food, and service!!!!!“

“Came across this when visiting Canada Place. It's towards the back of the food court, so a little hidden. Was greeted by the owner as I walked by. He politely introduced all the pizzas that were on display. If a full individual size ($8.95) is too much for you, they do offer a half portion ($5.00), which I chose. It was hot , fresh , and delicious. The owner was very pleasant and friendly. Great price for downtown office building. Highly recommend.“

“I've only been eating here for over 30 years.Yeah.They've been servin lunch for the dntn crowd for decades!Always perfect pizza.Simple lasagna.No fuss delicious fast served food.Quit complaining just order and eat!Delicious Every Single Day Every Single Time.With a smile too.“

“This is not just a pizza place which is delicious. The crust was excellent & the toppings were great, but I have to recommend the Spaghetti. Me & my wife ate Spaghetti Alla Mare Monti & was excellent, makes us want to try the whole menu.“

“Pizza Hut offers a delicious variety of pizzas with a great selection of sides, perfect for casual take out“

“This has more than once now came to the location before at 930 they close at 10 the representative said only sides and pizza no donairs. I truly do believe if u run a restaurant and close at 10 u should be ae to offer the menu. Donairs is in the name it's like going to a burger place and no burgers. All good though 2 more donair places in callingwood to go to.

I changed the star rating because 1 day after I left the review the owner did call me personally and we had a conversation of the events written above. This shows the establishment does care about the business and does look at the reviews i will be giving the restaurant another chance moving forward.“

“I had a wonderful experience at Pizza Hut. The pizza was hot and full of flavor. The toppings were fresh and plentiful. The staff were friendly and efficient. My order was completed accurately. The restaurant looked clean and organized. Service was quick and professional. Everything exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend this location.“

“donair was just how I like it, never had one like that in a long time. Haven't really tried anything other than the pizza or donair, but I'm sure everything else is just as good. 4 Stars because they forgot my pop once for delivery, but the driver did run across the store to get me one so. favourite place to order from when I come to Edmonton.“

“Love this place! Awesome food and awesome staff, dreaming of their pizza! Will be returning!!!“
