50 Best Italian Restaurants near Orangevale

“Great food & beer. Friendly staff. Great vibe. Seasonal specials will keep us coming back but the pasta and pizza today were perfect!“

“❤⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We ordered the Family Meal from O’Connor’s to sample a bit of everything—1/2 lb Tri-Tip and Brisket, two half chickens, garlic mashed potatoes, tri-tip chili, garlic bread, and BBQ sauce—and everything was fantastic! The chicken had a flavorful dry rub, and the skin was perfectly crispy while the meat stayed incredibly juicy. The tri-tip was tender and packed with flavor, and the brisket had a rich, smoky taste that hit all the right notes. But the surprise standout? The tri-tip chili—absolutely outstanding! The garlic mashed potatoes were creamy and comforting, and that loaf of garlic bread didn’t stand a chance once we got started. Add in friendly, helpful service, and you've got a 5-star experience. We’ll definitely be back!“

“The old-fashioned are so good and the brunch menu never disappoints❤“

“First time here and will definitely be back. Friendly staff and good food. Great environment.“

“Our server, Jeffrey was excellent and very informative! The busboy was very attentive. And cleared plates and refilled water often! Always patrolling and on the lookout! My pasta campagnia & my husbands veal,parmigiana were excellent! We also ordered a small pizza (to go) but had to have one slice! Great pizza! Then pumpkin gelato to share & finish our meal! Brought leftovers of each one home! So much food, so much goodness!“

“Recently my wife and I stopped by Petali Italian Restaurant. We were delighted to find this gem of Italian cuisine! The owners Mike and Vic, were gracious and friendly. The food was superb! The decor is inviting and creates a relaxing atmosphere. We will make this restaurant our go to spot for amazing Italian food. 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️RATING“

“Very nice young man served us. The Margherita pizza was very good and the green salad was delicious. The whole menu looked inviting, have to try the Sunday brunch.“

“Great service and the food was great. Highly recommend.“

“This place has amazing customer service, and the staff are very professional. The prices are also quite affordable, especially since they include a free salad and a breadstick. That said, I found the spaghetti lacking in flavor and a bit tasteless, though the salad was quite good. I’m giving it 4 stars mainly because of the excellent customer service—otherwise, the taste doesn’t really suit me.“

“Just dropped off my Slaphapper Wallyhoot to Briskit Öndagrïll over at his place, ..the Strike Three bowling ball factory so he can adjust the gyroscope for me. When I passed by Tony Baloney's I knew right then and there were I was going to eat. I've heard about Tony Baloney's but I've never been, so today I'm going to see if the urban legend is true!
Well, I don't know if they make the best sandwiches in the world..but Sactown for sure is in the top 3!
5 stars all day long. ☆☆☆☆☆“

“Spaghetti Factory never disappoints!“

“Amazing pizza!! They have some great paninis as well. Happy Hour from 3-6 Monday through Friday... Check it out!!“

“The food here is wonderful! Dessert too!!! We came for lunch. Beware: Shopping was great too! We went home with a new fountain ?

Parking: The parking is limited, and this is a quite popular lunch spot, so prepare to possibly need to wait. Plus the spots are close together.“

“As always, Olive Garden provided good food and lots of it for fair prices. Marissa, our server, was attentive and pleasant. The calamari appetizer, although a bit overdone, was plentiful with enough to take home. The seafood Alfredo was creamy and loaded with tender shrimp and scallops. The carbonara was delicious with shrimp and chicken. And the black tie mousse cake was luscious. We had enough left over for 2 more meals at home.“

“The chicken breast with mushrooms sauce with the butter brown sauce pasta was to freaking die for...WOW!!!“

“Went out for a relaxing dinner and found Skipolinis and were very pleased with all aspects of this welcoming restaurant. Service was great and dishes very good and plentiful. We plan to return with our family soon. TRY THEM!!!!“

“Our go-to restaurant for wonderful Italian food, great cocktails & wine and friendly staff. A true gem, Classy and comfortably elegant.“

“The food was excellent and our server was awesome!

However, the gentleman who works at the front counter and the woman who sat us didn't seem like they were having a good evening. No, hello or how are you even after I asked them how they were doing. It almost made you feel as if you were a nuisance/annoyed they had to deal with speaking to you therefore it didn't feel welcoming at all. We were seated quickly as it was around 7pm on a Saturday and not overly busy.

Our server changed that non welcoming feeling. She immediately greeted us with a smile and was very friendly and helpful. I really wish I remembered her name but I hadn't planned on leaving a review until I got a yelp notification asking me to do so.

We will definitely be back because of the service she provided and all 3 of us in our party enjoyed our food. If the food hadn't been good and our server had been like the first two employees, we wouldn't be open to dining here again, so both of those things saved our experience.

I forgot how large the portions and the leftovers were nice to take home and enjoy the next day.“

“This food is authentic and amazing!!! 10 stars!“

“Not sure exactly where to start but this restaurant has some serious customer service issues and that's just one category we were very disappointed in. We ordered online last night to try it out as we saw so many great reviews for the food so we broke from tradition and on my birthday we decided to eat here. All we ordered was a Helen, Cheese Fondue, and the Meatball rigatoni. I received an email stating the food would be ready in about 45 minutes. We left 35 minutes later as it's only up the street from where we live. As we arrive we noticed it's a little corner spot with patrons and appears to be more of a quaint little sit down restaurant and my wife and I thought maybe next time we just come in instead of take out. We stood there for about 2-3 minutes and then guy yells from across the room that he will be with us in a minute. He didn't seem to have anything he was really doing but ok. So finally an older guy comes over and asks us if we have been helped. We told him we were there to pick up our order, and he says he will go check on it. After a few minutes he comes back and says he tried to call us (no record of any missed calls on my phone) and that the rigatoni with meatballs was not available and he wasn't sure how it let us order that online. We don't know either and we definitely know you didn't try calling us to tell us that. Anyways he provided the option for a refund or to make my wife another dish. He mentioned shrimp scampi as the alternative, now the rigatoni was $25 a plate and they didn't even have shrimp scampi on the menu so I was skeptical since usually if they make something good it would be on their menu. So we waited for another 10 minutes for this SCAMpi. I capitalize scam because that's exactly how we felt when they tried to give us this alternative dish and we looked at it. I wish I had taken a picture of what they brought out for $25.... It was literally a small portion of large macaroni noodles, and no more than maybe 6-7 small chunks of shrimp in some greasy sauce that looked totally unseasoned... Gross. I wouldn't feed anything that dish and they should have never tried to replace a main dish like that with something as disappointing as what we received. So I took the container back into the restaurant as we hadn't left the parking lot as I wanted to see first just what they felt was comparable to the $25 we just spent. I found the guy who helped us and just explained that we wanted the refund and the scampi was not acceptable. He said ok and said right after that the refund was already processed. Now to the other food. The pizza was $23 and the cheese fondue was $13. Normally $23 for a pizza isn't crazy, but this was literally the size of a medium if that, and was extremely bare of ingredients. It taste pretty good, but wasnt worth the money at all. I don't eat a lot, and I was able to eat half of this pizza alone without even blinking. The cheese fondue was ok but not memorable. So now today I get up and take a look at my bank account to see if the refund was actually processed, and what do I see? Instead of a refund, I was charged again for that SCAMpi and not actually refunded! I wouldn't dine here again with the lack of customer service, value, and lack of integrity. I will be going back in again to get this straightened out and am not happy about it.“

“Steve is a great bartender. Always pleasant and attentive. Our wait person Brenda was wonderful. The food is always delicious and spot on. I highly recommend the food there. Enjoy.“

“The Place in Roseville is hands down one of my favorite spots to eat! The vibe is cozy yet trendy, perfect for date night or dinner with friends. The service is always friendly and attentive without being overbearing.

Now let’s talk food—absolutely incredible. The pasta is fresh and flavorful, the pizzas are perfectly wood-fired, and the wine selection is top-notch. You can tell they put thought and heart into every dish.

If you haven’t been yet, do yourself a favor and go. You’ll leave full, happy, and already planning your next visit.“

“The food was delicious, service was perfect and the ambiance was lovely. This place is always a great choice. 😊“

“We always order meals from Prepped Eats during our rush hours, and they never disappoint! The food is always fresh, flavorful, and consistent. The owner and staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming. If you’re in the area, don’t miss out on this amazing meal prep service!“

“Very Delish pizza! We ordered the Maui, bbq chicken and Spartan. There was a mistake in our delivery. I called and they quickly took care of it. Their prompt and kind service was very appreciated. I will definitely order from here again. Great customer service and great pizza.“

“Move sitting on the patio near the palm trees. Italian combo is the best! Cheesesteak sub superb. So much in the deli you will be amazed!! Clean, comfortable seating and delicious food. Being a Jersey Girl I know a great sandwich and Italian food!!“

“A great spot, really loved their spaghetti and of course the lamb chops were fantastic. And how can I forget the live music.“

“this place need help cooking the pizza and offering refunds for poorly cooked food. having a manager on duty, not charging absorbent prices, not having kids run the store.“

“Ordered some pizza for take out, it was delicious. We had to try the wings and it comes with some homemade ranch which was great, and we also tried some salad and pasta. My kids loved the chicken alfredo pasta...it was basic to me but still good. They have many other options for you to try...next time I will get a few different dishes to try out!“

“I received a surprise birthday certificate in the mail for one pizza - and it was really good and to my taste - garlic sauce, chicken, mushrooms, green onions - very balanced and tasty, also I loved how everything was cut into smaller uniform pieces, not like huge chunks of meat here and there, thank you!

They got a nice new sofa :)“

“I hadn’t been here in a while so I didn’t know it was under new management. I booked our end of season soccer party here. It was so good! The food was great and the party room worked out so well. Max and Russell were super helpful and so efficient for our big group. This will be my go to for pizza nights from now on“

“Great pizza. Worth the money!“

“Wonderful pizza, the crust was perfect.“

“My all time favorite pizza place. Unfortunately I moved to the Bay Area when I was a teenager so I can only get it when I come over to Sacramento or driving through to auburn or Reno. The family meal is my jam, garlic chips, (also my all time favorite) Caesar salad, and pepperoni pizza. Every time. Been coming here for 36 years. Wish you guys would come over to the sf peninsula area!“

“"Joey doesn't share food." "pivot"“

“Wonderful team making delicious pastas in generous portions. Pick one of their great combinations or design your own! Pesto mushroom was my favorite. Still have a great attitude in spite of a recent accident that damaged their front entrance. Go check them out!“

“First time ever! Had some kind of pizza with spicy honey and pepperoni. Very good pizza. It was my wife's idea to go check out that specific pizza. Wow!
You need to go try that pizza! Come on now... Spicy Honey Pizza? Unbelievable!“

“I can say this much, I know great service when I see it & feel it. But let me tell you how much I felt it through the phone! My goodness, I’ve been in the customer service field for more than a decade, and I can say that yessihr? And Victoria and most of all my delivery driver JACKIE! Customer service to the fullest is an understatement, to others the service you guys provided me tonight will be very light to them, but to me, it meant the world, I felt like we were all old friends that caught up on the phone. Literally especially the vibe I had with Jackie by just normal communication! Thank you so much. We are about to tear this pizza down and you guys just made our night on top of that by just being you guys! Please take those spirits around the world! We need you. Thank you pizza guys! For hiring these wonderful employees!“

“The last 4 times I've ordered pizza for the kids have been from Pizza Twist. This is a new favorite and my new go to for a quick pizza. The place is welcoming and the staff is pleasant. The pizza itself is amazing. Personally, I think this pizza is much better than Round Table Pizza or Mt. Mike's, for a more reasonable price.

Vegetarian options: You can have them build a pizza the way you like.

Kid-friendliness: What kid doesn't like a good pizza“

“My husband and I often stopped to eat at Romano's Macaroni Grill when we're in the area. The food is always great and the staff is very friendly and thoughtful. Macaroni Grill is very kid friendly we see families often when we dine here. We recommend trying Macaroni Grill. I'm sure you will love it as we do.“

“Customer service was awesome!“

“Great Indian fusion pizza. Save yourself some money and call in your order rather then using their website since it adds a bit more to the cost due to third party processing. This tip was given to us by them when we picked up our pizzas. Very friendly staff, quick service, great food. Highly recommended.“

“It was a nice process, got my pizza fast and the pizza was good. The price is $8.69 with the $5 coupon they give if you put your email address on the website, so the price was quite cheap. However the doors were locked when I first went (at about 5-6am) so I don’t think it’s available 24/7.“

“This place is the bomb 💣 !“
