50 Best Italian Restaurants near Alhambra

“the pizza is ausome been going to Angelo's pizza many years ago and it still the same“

“Delicious!!! Best Pizza in LA. Mimosas are super yummy I recommend the guava mimosa and brunch on a Sunday is a must!! Dog friendly and Morty also loves the pepperoni.“

“love the service here. been coming here for over 22 years“

“The pork chop dish was delicious and so tender. Generous portions and reasonable prices.“

“I love the food my favorite is the linguine clams which is made with a white wine sauce but you can ask for red if you desire. Everywhere you go now a days is expensive but at least portions are large and shareable. It surprises me to read the reviews and see that people enjoyed the Tyson frozen wings they use to serve at Vittoria’s for years. I also would like to note that I love the antipasto salad and it doesn’t have only one meat as I read on one of the reviews.Also everywhere that has delivery service charges more when ordered on the app. Update: they are no longer charging for water. I can say that yes they are short staffed sometimes as well as many other restaurants have been ever since COVID. I really love the service and I will continue to be a customer for many years!! It always amazes me that people can’t see when it’s busy and aren’t understanding.“

“The food was very tasty, will be back next time“

“Are you kidding me it’s always good“

“I had a wonderful time at Propaganda Wine Bar. The food was excellent and well made. I forgot my waiters name but he was so sweet and attentive to me and my friend. The music was good, and overall great experience. Thank you to all the staff!“

“Stopped by here without a reservation on a Thursday night and waited about 25 mins to get a seat. This place is so nice and the bartender was very friendly and helpful . The ambiance is really cozy. I Ordered the shrimp scampi and really enjoyed it. So much flavor!! The bathroom was also super cute and clean. Will definitely be coming back to this little gem of a place“

“Family atmosphere and the most authentic Italian food!! Always delicious and always a good time!“

“Had artichoke as a starter and filet mignon as a main course. The food was really delicious, and the service was excellent - but the seating was rough on the bum. Also the music was kind of loud, so it was hard to hear my friends at the table.
Revisited this week. (Brought my own seat cushion-made it a lot more enjoyable.) Still was loud, but the food was worth it! Had a great server and an enjoyable evening. Started with delicious brussel sprouts and cheese board - once again had filet mignon which was medium rare and perfection!“

“Truly a hidden gem. The quality is bar none at this price point. The salmon is cooked to perfection, and the tangy basil sauce perfectly balances the flavor. I’ve had the grilled chicken with mushroom sauce twice, and I love the consistency. You can park at the public parking lot behind the restaurant. You're welcome.“

“One of the best hidden gems in LA. I stumbled into this wine bar out of curiosity, and it quickly became one of my favorite places in the city—and now I’m a regular.
The wine selection is outstanding: an ever-changing, thoughtful assortment that goes beyond the usual bottles you’ll find elsewhere. Whether you’re a wine nerd or just getting into it, this is a place where you can discover something new every time.
What really makes it special is the staff. They’re not just knowledgeable—they genuinely care about sharing that knowledge in a welcoming, down-to-earth way. Ian, the owner, is incredible. He’s the reason I know anything about neutral wine now. His passion is contagious, and he’s always happy to break things down or suggest something based on your taste.
Whether you're looking to expand your palate or just enjoy a glass in a great atmosphere, this place delivers every time.“

“100% recommend. thank you“

“Amazing delicious food and love the ambiance. The servers were awesome!!“

“I would describe De La Nonna as an elevated pizza restaurant. As with most pizza joints, they serve up beer, salad and pizza, but this not your standard fare.

Start off with a craft beer, wine, or a fancy cocktail (or mocktail). Lots of choices to be had.

For starters, we ordered the market salad which had a fantastically light tangerine(?) dressing. The dressing on the ceaser salad was a bit heavy, but it was still tasty.

The eggplant caponata appeared to have been lightly fried and coated in a sweet and savory sauce. Very good.

As for the pizzas, all were insanely good. Each was like a pillowy soft deep dish pizza and they all came with the best crispy edges.

IMO the roasted mushroom pizza was the best — and I'm not a fan of mushrooms.

Prices are a bit higher than you would find at a typical pizza place, but again, these are not your typical pizzas. The staff was friendly and the atmosphere, chill.

Dietary restrictions: They were able to accommodate customers with celiacs.“

“Try to stop by every time we stay in Glendale. Good food and very reasonable prices. Service is beyond excellent.“

“Great Food, Great Service...“

“It's delicious. The price is also right.“

“My Daughter & I had dinner here tonight… the food was PHENOMENAL!!! Great Friendly Service too!!

Thank you for such a great Saturday night treat for an out of town Momma visiting her daughter!! I’ll beg her to come everytime I’m in town, and be very Jealous that she gets to come whenever she wants!!! EVERYTHING was BEYOND DELICIOUS!! Bravo!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻“

“Food was amazing, spot on. Great comfortable service. Really nice experience!“

“One of the best I’ve had “out” in a very long time.“

“Had to stop by my favorite Italian grubbin in the heart of Old Town Pasadena all the way from Boise. This was my 3rd time and each time just keeps getting better; definitely the bigger the party, the better. We paid $225 for 4 pasta entrees, 3 appetizers, & 2 glasses of wine for a party of 6. I’ve learned to like my pastas al dente after having them here. The meatballs are banging, the wine-pairing was delightful. Our service was attentive and pleasant; the vibe is always vibrant and homey. Highly recommended.“

“ABSOLUTELY THE MOST AMAZING CUISINE I HAVE HAD IN LOS ANGELES .. or anywhere I been lately for that matter COMPLIMENTS TO THE CHEFS … . I’m
SOOOO IN LOVE with this place I am mad I don’t live in LA ..I’m from Vancouver CANADA .. visiting LA for the first time , Let me tell you .

“Absolutely stunning place. Came here for my birthday for drinks and dancing. Be aware they charge a $25 cover fee per person even if you’re not having dinner. The live music is such a vibe and dancing here is so much fun. Just be prepared to spend some money if you’re staying for drinks as they are not cheap. The whole place feels like you’ve been transported back in time and it’s amazing that everyone dresses to the nines. Would love to come back and have dinner here sometime“

“Great food at good prices“

“Amazing smoothies and bowls! Yummmmy! Cute shop with food and gift items as well!“

“Was super happy with our dinner at Hippo. Every dish was delicious. The brussel sprouts and cauliflower starters had excellent flavors. All the pastas we tried had incredible depth of flavor without being overly heavy or greasy. The hippo rolls and table focaccia were excellent and the chicken thighs were to die for. Only thing that was lackluster was the passion fruit gelato. Fun vibe, lots of seating, and great service!“

“They treat you like family. The food is incredibly great.“

“All around great experience! Good food, great service, good music! If only I lived closer…“

“Our server was awesome... her recommendations were spot on! the food surpassed our expectations! exceptional...The ambiance was relaxing for a Friday night and perfect for our friend's birthday celebration. thank you for making it so special. Very happy party of 4 enjoyed dinner at Marina!“

“Excellent restaurant italien authentique au cœur de LA downtown. Délicieux !!!“

“Best Italian food I’ve ever had!“

“Great food Great service will visit again“

“The food was great had the Chicken Parmesano, the chicken was tender and the sauce that was on it was delicious and light. Came with mashed potatoes, sautéed carrots, and broccoli. The vegetables were tender but needed more flavor. The mashed potatoes were done well and had a lot of flavor. Dont know if we were there too early but there was only one server, don't get me wrong he was great but he did need help. Overall I would dine here again.“

“Wish I had taken photos of our food but it wouldn't have done it much justice. Pizza is delicious - every single bite. Had wings and Ceaser Salad. Service is hit and miss. I've dined here several times and two nights ago the bouncer was giving hella odd vibes. Food is worth it though lol.“

“Muy buen servicio Comida deliciosa…“

“My wife and I celebrated our 22nd wedding anniversary at Barrio in City Terrace last night, and it was nothing short of amazing! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, setting the perfect mood for a special evening.

The food was absolutely incredible—each dish was crafted with care, full of rich flavors, and beautifully presented. Every bite was a delight, and you could truly taste the passion behind the cooking.

The service was outstanding—attentive, friendly, and made us feel like valued guests. The staff went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable experience.

We will definitely be back and highly recommend Barrio to anyone looking for top-notch Italian cuisine in a cozy, welcoming setting. Thank you for making our anniversary so special!“

“Very welcoming family owned restaurant, offering great quality authentic Italian food.“

“My husband and I went to San Antonio Winery to celebrate our 25th Anniversary, having served their wine at our wedding, so long ago. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was fun, and we ended-up taking home a couple of wine bottles to enjoy at a later date. One of the owners was working in the winery store and was most hospitable, chatting with us about his family's history and asking about our own family and what tastes we enjoy. He set us up with some wonderful tastings that really opened-up our palates.“

“Best broasted chicken and large portions. Delicious Italian food“

“It’s a very friendly place. The The people who work here are very polite nice and very pleasing. It’s 100+ service. I really love it. It was our first time and we were celebrating my wife’s birthday. They give us a court encourage to visit this place. I’m pretty sure you’re gonna be amazed with the food and service“
