36 Best Italian Restaurants near Fremont

“Great service. Great food“

“I visited this Olive Garden a while back with a friend. The first thing that hit me was the strong smell of cheese—it reminded me of the scent you get upon entering, which isn't necessarily the most inviting. We were starving, so we quickly ordered a glass of red blend wine each, along with minestrone soup, Caesar salad, and chicken pasta.
Our server was fantastic and very attentive. However, the food was just okay. We both agreed that it used to be better in the past. We were too full for dessert, so we ended up chatting for a while before heading out.
I'm not sure I'd rush back, but it's not a bad option if you're craving pasta and happen to be in the area.“

“First time going and glad I picked that spot. I ordered a Cajun chicken fettuccine pasta bowl. And they didn’t disappoint. I ordered an alcoholic beverage which came out great at made beautifully with fresh strawberries sliced in the drink. The bread was fresh. But would be better severed hot or warm for butter to melt, or toasted garlic bread. However that didn’t affect the pasta dish whatsoever. The ambience was relatively calm simple with a hint of elegance. Any attire can be worn. Formal or fresh from work for grub and a shot“

“I have been here many times, and each experience has been perfect. Even on Valentine's day, when you needed reservations, and they ended up being way more busy than they expected, the food was still superb and the staff respectful and professional. Do not miss out on this hidden gem in Fremont. Worth the drive from nearly any distance.“

“Hands down, absolutely incredibly delicious!“

“While basking under the golden glow of the twin arches I started to ponder on what my 1st and last meal of the day would be. In a final act of desperation to avoid a maybe it's made of a pink paste meat meal I threw my lot in with a rando food near me search. Lo and behold Simply pasta pops up. And it was super close. As I walked in, I was greeted promptly, the lady was very courteous and helpful. My expectations were not high, but WoW, I was pleasantly surprised. My pasta was cooked perfectly. The spinach in my pasta wasn't just an afterthought. The garlic bread was done right. The soup of the day was like a corn chicken Chowder. Something I was shocked to know that I liked. My green apple drink might be my new addiction. Overall this place is a definite 4.7- 4.8. The meatballs in the pasta were so-so. Other than that I enjoyed my meal.“

“Great food, nice staff and Chianti says it all! Oh they have pizza yet you should not hold the image of pizzeria / pizza parlor that leans to the slice o’pie on the east coast. This is nice dining!“

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.“

“First time patrons loved everything about our experience food was delicious generous portions did not go home hungry great customer service and definitely will go again, we want to try everything on the menu Bravissimo Gracias por la Norte“

“Have not been here since it was straw hat pizza. What an awesome change. Food and beer are very good. The service was impeccable thank you Ian and Collin for such a fun experience🍕“

“Was excited to try Tony Gemignani’s “Apricot Fields” slice (exclusive to Mountain View), and he did not disappoint. Chalk up another winner that went great with our Cal-Italia, and the Wise Guy. A little Hot Honey and extra fig preserve allowed us to add a custom touch as each desired. Can’t even complain about the wait for a closer Slice House, because I know Tony Respects the Craft too much to rush any location before they are up to the highest standards. Bravo!“

“I ordered an 18" Hawaiian pizza online, so I would have leftovers. It said the pizza would be delivered in about an hour and a half. Ok they are busy. Nope! I got a phone call asking if I wanted it now or later. Now! So it was delivered pretty quickly. The pizza was delicious, and I had pizza for breakfast all weekend 🍕“

“Excellent vibe, nice folks classic cocktails.“

“Even though they only had 1 cook the food came out fast.“

“My niece and I stopped here by chance. We were driving home to AZ around dinnertime. We were going to go to a BBQ place but had to turn around as we were going in the wrong direction, when my niece spotted this place. I'm always open to pizza, so we decided to give it a try.
For starters, there is very little parking, but we are able to snag a spot. We went in and couldn't agree on one kind of pizza. We noticed that they had mini ten inch pizzas. So that's what we decided to do, and we each ordered our own. I customized the supreme as I don't care for bacon bits or olives. My niece ordered the barbecue chicken. There's just one small table with four chairs to sit at, so we hung out there while our pizzas were being made.
When they informed us the pizza was ready, we went up to the counter. The pizza box was extremely hot and heavy! When we got out into the car and looked at them, they were huge! It's a very generous ten inch pizza!
Due to the lack of space and parking, we tooled across the street to trader, joe's and ate in their parking lot! The pizza was so loaded and so filling that we each could barely finish three pieces from our respective pizza. I'm very glad we had an ice chest in the car! I just enjoyed leftovers heated up in my air fryer.
I would one hundred percent recommend this place! They have a pizza that is about twenty-eight inches around. I noticed the to go boxes, and one was really big! I think that pizza size is the granddaddy! They also have a Mac daddy!
Don't let the location and appearance fool you. Get a pizza from here asap!“

“Staff was very friendly and I enjoyed the format for a simple and fast ordering.
Prices were reasonable with proper sized portions and the bread bar was simple option if you need a little more food with a simple meal.
The meat ravioli was amazing and the best I have had in Hayward and was perfectly complemented by the Cesar salad.“

“Really good food and good ole stories from back in the old days.“

“the best chicken Caesar salad and garlic toast - love this Newark location and vibe!“

“This place is under new ownership and reopened today so we went to check it out!

Being from the bay, the pizza reminded me of Bronco Billy’s pizza in Union City. So fresh, not greasy and worth the money!

I was concerned reading about the pricing but I didn’t see this as an issue as the quality and number of people a pizza can feed matter! I’ve easily spent $50-60 on a round table pizza when you get an L specialty. Here a family size runs at a similar price and feeds more people (5-7). I think it’s a great option for parties and team events. I also went to breakfast at a local brunch spot and paid $50 for 2 people so I guess it’s all relative!

Definitely check it out! Everything inside is brand new, that’s a perk! Inviting interior and not cheesy looking

Vegetarian options: They have vegetarian and vegan options!

Dietary restrictions: They had a gluten free crust which was huge for me! I have an allergy

Parking: There’s lots of parking and some are shaded

Kid-friendliness: Lots of games for kids to play including a racing game, slot machines, etc. Great kids food options too!

Wheelchair accessibility: Lots of open areas and not only booth seating! There’s tables inside and outside“

“I had the chicken parmesan. Sauce was a little thin but tasted pretty good. It was served with some penne pasta and vegetables that were both cooked just right. It seemed a little overpriced, but what isn't these days? Dinner and a glass of wine were just under 40 per person.“

“Great place and good food for watching Sporting events, UFC, and Boxing 👍🏿“

“My partner and I were out on a bicycle ride on the bay trail and in search of a good lunch spot where we could sit outside. We came across this place and decided to give it a go. We were very pleased all around! We chose the “Veggie Gourmet pizza” and it was just what we’d were looking for! It was made with tons of fresh cut veggies (saw them cut fresh for our pizza) and a delicious mix of cheeses cooked just right. The pizza was super delicious!! Best pizza I’ve had in a while. The 14” was more than enough for the two of us and it’s very affordable. The service was extremely friendly and attentive. We enjoyed our pizza and a couple cold Modelos at a cute little table outside beneath the shade of a large umbrella. We loved this place!

Parking: We were on bicycles but there was a parking lot with plenty of spaces.“

“The best deep dish ever! This restaurant has moved around in recent years, and its current iteration concentrates on the pizza: excellent pizza. There are a total of 4-5 tables (including the two outside). Takeout is the way to go. Our favorite flavor: Sears Tower.

Dietary restrictions: Gluten free crusts available.“

“Came in today with the fam bam and the lady that helped us out her name is Linda.She had show us our seats and took our order, made sure we were well taken care of while dinning in. I recommend this place to anyone“

“I always come here whenever I'm at the Livermore Outlets. I can't believe how much this place has changed, it's so much better than before. I love the chicken parmesan, makes me feel like I'm back in Brooklyn. It's quick, easy, and more affordable in this area, plus the quality of the food is amazing. Love coming here with my wife and daughter because we get to walk around downtown after we eat.“

“Very good! Thank you! 😊👍👍👍“
