50 Best Italian Restaurants near Campbell

“I will be back! Staff service and food are exceptional!“

“Celebrating my husband's 65th Birthday. Took a excursion today to cool off out of the valley heat and searched out an authentic Italian meal. I ordered the Linguini and fresh Clams with roasted peppers and light cream sauce. The results were delicious with excellent flavor and presentation. Hubby needed his Cavatelli with red gravy as a side dish since he hasn't found anything like this in our area. He also ordered Lasagna as the main course and we were surprised to see a very large portion! The bread, and I am not a bread eater, was heavenly. Hubby claims good Italian bread is like eating cake and I couldn't agree more with him more. I am now a convert! The pasta is homemade, the red gravy is delicious. We will be returning. Thank you for being here for all of us Italian food lovers ❤️“

“The best Italian food in San Jose! Service is always very personable, food comes out quickly, and bread, pizza, and pasta are to die for. I don’t know anyone who didn’t think it was one of the best places they’ve tried, and it’s near the movies. I had both of my daughters' birthday parties there.“

“BEsteak.A is an exceptional steakhouse that deserves every bit of its five-star rating. From the moment we stepped in, the service was impeccable—attentive, knowledgeable staff who made us feel welcomed throughout. The ambiance was enhanced by the soothing music playing in the background, setting a relaxed tone for the evening. I opted for the bone-in New York steak, and I must say, it was a masterpiece. The presentation was unlike any other steakhouse I've been to—the steak arrived perfectly cooked and beautifully plated. What surprised me pleasantly was their unique twist on the starter; instead of the usual bread, we were served a delightful plate of fresh vegetables with a decadent cheese dipping sauce—a refreshing change that set the tone for the meal ahead. The open kitchen concept added to the experience, allowing us to see the skill and dedication of the chefs firsthand. Overall, BEsteak.A not only delivered on taste but also on ambiance, service, and creativity. It's a place I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a top-notch dining experience.“

“It’s the jewel of the east side the food the beer the atmosphere family owned great place to enjoy ❤️“

“They have to best ravioli. My family has been getting them for over 60 years. I live in texas now, I haven't been there in years, I miss them so much! Most of my family is in Sacramento now and will go to La Villa just to get the ravioli!“

“The seating is wonderfully spacious with a campy charm that feels fun. The staff are welcoming and attentive. Once you park, someone from the restaurant steps in as an honorary crossing guard, helping you cross safely. The complimentary bread was soft, warm, and clearly fresh from the oven. The marinara sauce in the farfalle mafiusa stood out for its bright and fresh tomato flavor. The pansotti was very tasty. The tomato butter sauce in it was rich yet beautifully balanced. The coconut mousse martini was dessert in a glass, but without the heaviness. The chocolate fondant cake was dense, and unapologetically sweet. Would happily come back again!“

“Great place for corporate events! Our team attended IBASV's bocce ball tournament last week and the food/atmosphere were great!“

“We went tonight and had an amazing, affordable meal. I can’t say enough about the service! The staff is friendly, comes across like they genuinely want you there. The food was delicious. I will be back soon!“

“We had excellent service for our large party of 10. Our server, Westin, was wonderful. We were there to celebrate my daughter’s big 30! We all had a wonderful time, food was exceptional and so was the service.“

“100% recommend, comfort food and great service. Best cannolo I’ve had in San Jose ! The garlic knots are okay, their dough is really nice though. But the chicken with penne was delicious! My fiancé had the veal and he really liked it!“

“The food here is very good but even better is the service. The staff was very genuine, attentive and quick. Maybe the best service I've had in my life. I'm not in the area often but would definitely go again“

“A very memorable lovely dining experience!
First time at this lovely Italian Restaurant! We were celebrating our anniversary and were treated like family! Food was exceptional and you can tell the care put into the dishes with each plate served! Definitely will visit again soon! Owners put on romantic music when they heard we were celebrating our anniversary! If you are looking for a classy Italian dining experience Vasso Azzurro is the place! Thank you for an unforgettable dinner!❤️“

“We decided spontaneously after a visit to the Lick observatory to dine here. All the staff were super professional, friendly and quick. What I really enjoyed was that our waiter made an extra effort to help my parents (their English is a bit basic). The food was on the table in no time and was delicious and hot. I tried the pasta with steak and gorgonzola and didn’t regret it!“

“Mio Vicino is a Santa Clara institution. Consistently great food. Friendly atmosphere. It’s a Perry family go to place for sure! 😎👍🏼“

“..finally had a chance to try the new restaurant, wonderful!!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Incredible Experience! From the moment we walked in tonight, everything about this Italian restaurant was pure magic. The ambience was a great family friendly made even more special by the wonderful gentleman playing the accordion — such an authentic touch that transported us straight to Italy. The service was impeccable - attentive without being intrusive — and every detail was handled with care. And the food… perfection! The Sole was simply divine — light, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. Each bite was a reminder of why true Italian cuisine is all about quality and passion. A must-visit for anyone who loves great food, beautiful atmosphere, and genuine hospitality. I can’t wait to return! 🇮🇹🍷✨ Dreamgate Events Birmingham Alabama“

“Love the food and the atmosphere!“

“Amazing!! Yes, they are open on a Monday night! Awesome service! The vibe is both chill and upscale. I asked for a flight (not on the menu by the way) and they made it work! Lauren and Rachel are killing it!! I will so be back 😊 I had some cheese, wine and a shrimp Caesar salad“

“We were going to a movie next door so we stopped in to have a glass of wine and a Negroni. Decided to order the Fresh Onion Bread with marinara and to us it's very craveable! We met Geoff the manager who also served us and told him that we'd be back for dinner after the movie. We sat at the bar and it's the first time that I've ever seen an ice bar.
Ordered the Baked Eggplant Mostaccioli plus Spaghetti with Meatballs. Both dishes were really good! Geoff came over and greeted us. Our bartender Ainslee was really nice and attentive.“

“One of the best places to have a big party. The banquet rooms are spacious; you can seat up to 160 guests. I’ve hosted 2 events here already - my parents’ 50th anniversary in 2014 and my 50th birthday this year. Easy process to reserve the space & select menu. Great customer service from all staff.“

“The Doppio Zero Pizza will change your life!“

“Best Italian food and best steaks“

“We had a wonderful meal the evening before my husband ran the LA Marathon. The hostess was very busy, too busy to make eye contact or smile. Once sat, we waited several minutes before anyone addressed us. Looked to be only one server for the entire patio. Once the server came, she was attentive & courteous. We had the bread basket, octopus, beef cheeks, & gnocchi, all delicious, cooked perfectly. Would come back.“

“I went with my friend for lunch and it was so delicious I took my family back two days later. Everybody loved what they ordered, and Aldo’s is going to be our go-to Italian restaurant. The atmosphere is great, and the prices are very reasonable. Everyone was friendly.“

“I returned for more Italian food and wasn’t disappointed. I had the Locanda Spritz, which was tasty. We started with bruschetta, which had fresh basil and olives. For entrees, we shared the San Daniele pizza and vodka pasta. The vodka pasta was exceptional—definitely a must-try! Overall, another great experience!“

“Excellent vibe, nice folks classic cocktails.“

“Excellent take out place. Reasonable prices for the portions.

We ordered through food delivery service and the food came piping hot and nicely packed.

We ordered penne a la vodka with sausage, meat lasagna, caprese salad, and Ceasar salad. Everything was well cooked and tasted delicious. The portions are a good size for the price. The 4 dishes came out to just over $100 with tax, fees, & tip.

Would absolutely order from here again.“

“I discovered the place by accident. I was next door inside Michaels having some art pieces custom framed when I decided to look for a place to stop by to eat. I was starving. I was craving for pasta. And thats how I got to discover this place. I ordered the chicken fettucine alfredo. Love the dish with its chunky chicken pieces and al dente pasta. The complimentary cheese sticks with that cheese pimiento cheese spread was a delightful surprise. Next time Ill check their lasagna and clam chowder. I heard their clam chowder is as good as Boulins in San Francisco. I dont have to make a drive to the city to enjoy a good bowl of chowder. The lasagna looks so rich as well as their chopino. Im definitely comjng back.“

“Delicious! First time there and had a meal on the outside towards the back of restaurant. Had a few different appetizers but I'd say go with the calamari as it's lightly breaded yet had the crunch and the squid soft and easy to eat. Great wine selection. For my main meal was the Filet Mignon dinner special. It was supposed to come with veggies and the meat in truffle sauce. Everything in my order was correct except the sauce on the filet mignon didn't taste nor look like truffle sauce but it looked and tasted more like a balsamic vinegar glaze. It was unique, as it had a vinegar flavor profile which was ok, though I really wanted more of a meaty taste. Dessert was great, had a pistachio cake that was mild in sweetness and more of the nutty flavor. Overall, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ for me even with the little hiccup.

Parking: When you get to "Little Italy" one side has free parking but that gets full quickly, and the other side has parking meters that was active until 10PM (Yup, the meters are from 9am to 10pm in Little Italy, the rest of San Jose the meters stop operations at 6pm) which of course the parking space on the meters are available during the late afternoons but these spaces are full by 7/8pm.“

“Some of the best pizza we’ve had in California. And our server was friendly, engaging, and effective! Great experience we’ll be back!!“

“Holy mercy... This place popped up twice today, once when my wife was browsing TikTok (😒) but again in The Downtowner newsletter I receive, so we went for a late lunch. We didn't realize that it was a shared space, so we also got to try a slice of pizza and some fries, both of which came out quickly and very fresh, and I had an Old Fashioned, just because. By the time we finished the pizza and the fries, we didn't even get a chance to try the sandwich, so we took it to-go, a bit disappointed that we didn't try it hot and fresh.

Well. I just tried a bite a bit ago, and even cold and a bit soggy, it. Was. Incredible. My only real reference to an Italian beef sandwich is the few times I've tried Portillo's in the Midwest, and this was head and shoulders above their offerings. My bite turned into me finishing half of the sandwich without even realizing it. Their herb/spice blend is amazing, and I am now counting down the days until we have an excuse to get back out to Little Italy--we don't live far, so hopefully it won't be too long!“

“Good daily special. Friendly staff good food.“

“Definitely get the garlic shrimp fettuccini Alfredo. It’s the best thing I’ve eaten there!“

“We had the most amazing dinner at the restaurant. We were there all weekend. The staff is amazing. The food is out of this world. If you are in the area, you must stop there thank you. I’ve never eaten such an amazing pasta dish and I love Italian food and you guys nailed it and let’s not even start with the lamb chops. Omg. I need to come back again soon.“

“Me and my family ended up choosing this place due to its close proximity. The guy who took our order was humbled and nice.

The pizza itself has a nice and flavorful pizza sauce which is sweet, the crust also has a nice crunch to it. The veggies were also delightful.“

“Very good quality of foods and very friendly personel. I'm often ordering foods from there. One of my favorite take-out kitchens! Recommended

Parking: There is many food delivery restorants and half of parking lots during day were busy by doordashers, but, still many free spots to park.“

“I've eaten here many times, both onsite and takeout. For this recent visit, we got takeout. I had Linguine Leonardo, one of my favorites. My husband had Chicken Marsala and my dad had Linguine Portofino. The Leonardo has chicken, spinach, and sundried tomatoes sautéed in olive oil and garlic. It's a nice variety of flavors and the tomatoes are a great burst of flavor. The pasta is homemade and delicious. My husband enjoyed his Marsala. It had a lot of sauce, with mushrooms and onions. The chicken was pounded thin. My dad enjoyed the Portofino and ate every bite. All of our dishes came with a side salad, breadsticks, and their delicious cheese spread.“
