12 Best Italian Restaurants in Palo Alto

“Good food and great customer service. Do recommend“

“I had an amazing experience at Italico Restaurant! The food was fresh and flavorful, especially the truffle pasta and wood-fired pizza. The service was top-notch, and the atmosphere was cozy yet modern. I’ll definitely be back to enjoy more of their delicious dishes. Highly recommend!“

“In truth, I recommend Jessica --the front desk-- who makes sure that I receive extra marinara as well as extra sauce Anglaise... for takeout. Until, we talked, I stopped ordering from Terun on principle. I was a frequent client. Takeout customers must be honored for requests that are gladly honored when in the dining room. Takeout customers should be thanked for not causing dirty tablecloths and dishes -- and LOYALTY. Jessica reinstated that loyalty. I truly hope that the owners appreciate her. Without extra sauces the food is too dry. With it, delicious. The prices honor extra sauces and more!“

“Fantastic service and Delicious food. Our server ( didn’t catch her name ) was awesome. I do remember she had a beautiful accent. I believe when asked she said she was originally from Kenya! Kudos to her for taking such good care of us! We live in San Joaquin Valley but we will definitely make the trip back for dinner!“

“Most delicious desert ever!“

“Amazing Sicilian food, cozy patio and dining experience. Wait staff are welcoming❤️“

“Had a wonderful dining experience at Bistro Elan. The food was flavorful and beautifully presented, and the atmosphere was cozy and inviting. The staff were attentive without being intrusive, making the meal feel relaxed and enjoyable. A great place for a casual dinner or a special occasion. Looking forward to visiting again.“

“I tried the breakfast sandwich and it's on focaccia bread! Its soooo good it changed my idea of a sandwich. The staff is so helpful and kind and really pushed to make me feel welcomed which was great since I was dizzy from a blood draw. Being there definitely felt like a nice break in the day.“

“I wish you would open another location outside downtown Palo Alto. Your food is fabulous but too hard for parking!“
