18 Best Italian Restaurants in Bakersfield

“I’ve always enjoyed the food and the Luigi’s experience and last night just added to that! I hosted a surprise party in their warehouse and it was phenomenal! Their staff is amazing! From start to finish, they delivered! From their detailed-oriented event coordinator, Lis Clarke, to their friendly, attentive, and fun staff—I am thoroughly impressed! All of my large events will be held at Luigi’s from now on!“

“Stopped in for lunch, and was amazing as always. We’re a Frequent Foodie at Frugatti’s, because of the great service, food, and atmosphere. Don’t skip the dessert, you definitely need that. We met the owner, Ralph, today. It was fun to discuss his future plans and his passion for perfection. Best lace to eat in Bakersfield, hands down.“

“Love the food and atmosphere- Live Music occasionally ;)“

“Is this authentic Italian food? No, but I do like the food here. My usual is spaghetti with meat sauce and I also get meatballs and a side of alfredo sauce to pour on top of my meat sauce. I really love their meatballs. They're delicious to me. I have had other entrees like eggplant parmesan, fettuccine alfredo, tour of Italy, and chicken parmesan to name a few, but I always go back to ordering my usual. I'm not a big fan of their breadsticks. The only time I like them is when they are hot and fresh, but usually they don't come to us that way. Their salad is OK. It's not the best I have had. I do really like their soup. My 2 favorites are Chicken Gnocchi and Zuppa Toscana. I like these 2 soups so much that I have copycat recipes for them and make them throughout the fall and winter when temperatures drop. Their customer service is usually pretty good. One issue at this location that is not appealing is when we get our salad/soup, within 2 minutes, we get our food. We don't have enough time to eat our salad/soup and our food gets cold in the meantime. Someone really needs to figure this out. This has happened to us several times we have been here. I also have noticed that hosts and hostesses leave a slip of paper taped to each table which is to make sure the manager visits every table before the customers leave. As much as I appreciate the idea and sentiment of this, it needs to be utilized better. The manager comes around to each table with her iPad in hand and without any personality asking how our food is or visit is going. To me, it doesn't even seem like she cares. It seems more like she's just checking a box. This isn't a restaurant that we normally go to, but it's nice to come to occasionally.“

“Tired of all the general chain pizzas. Domino’s, Pizza Hut, Little Ceasars and papa John’s. Pizza guys is more expensive of course but definitely worth the price in my opinion. If bang for your buck is what you’re looking for though then this probably won’t be the best option. I usually get an XL with 16 wings for 50 bucks. Plus they throw in a free 2 liter so that’s cool.“

“very simple the food is amazing atmosphere is just laid back you can take your family there or you can take a date there again the food is just perfect everything is clean the bathrooms are clean it's good to have a place like this in Bakersfield my son just came back he's a Marine and the first thing he said let's go to a slice of Italy 🙏🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸“

“Cool vibe and good service“

“My husband and I tried this spot for lunch yesterday. Very friendly service and food was fresh. We both got a giant slice, and I added a side salad to mine. We both wish the pizza had more sauce on it. Very, very lightly sauced. In our opinion, that is what’s keeping this place from being a 10 out of 10 for us.“

“I went to Pasta Bowls for the first time today! It will not be my last time! ❤️ Not only is the pesto cream fettuccine and bread delicious but the staff are so great! I absolutely enjoyed my experience and will recommend Pasta Bowls to everyone! P.S. I was able to try the new spicy spinach dip and it was delicious 😋😁 Keep up the good work!“

“The best sandwich shop in Bakersfield hands down 😋🥪“

“I love this store and pizza they make here. The people are super friendly and very helpful. When I went there I had no clue what to order and only had so much to work with. A guy named Thomas was super patient with me and helped me get exactly what I wanted. The ranch they make is amazing and even when I don’t buy food from them I stop in and get some.“

“Tried this place out for the first time a few weeks back, actually saw someone wearing a tee shirt at the post office with their name on it, lol. Glad we tried them out. I got a hot pastrami and added onion, and it was really good. Forgot what the wife got but she loved it, and said the potato salad was good too. Staff was friendly, and the place was clean and organized. Few indoor tables and also some outdoor tables. Seen some stuff in the cooler gonna have to come back and get to try, ravioli and spumoni, im looking at you, lol. I would definitely recommend this place, and hope to be back again soon.“
