50 Best Italian Restaurants near Paramount

“The restaurant has authentic Italian cuisine and atmosphere!“

“If you go to Giuliano's, go prepared to eat Italian food for a couple of days. Get a sandwich- I discovered, and enjoyed- the Grab-n-go yesterday- grab some pre-made meals and salads (the penne with sausage was awesome for dinner yesterday), get some deli meats and salads and some bread for the deli items. Oh- and they have desserts. I've not tried the pizza, but a bunch of folks had them, so I'm sure they are good too. It's a classic Italian deli. If you like that type of store, you will not be disappointed. Only issue- not enough help at the deli counter at 3 pm on a Saturday. But the wait wasn't too bad. Go and enjoy!“

“Came here on a whim for a solo date. My server, Logan - was incredibly knowledgeable about wine and helped me choose an amazing seafood pasta off the menu. At first I wasn’t sure about the squid ink, but it was probably one of the best pastas I have ever eaten. The affogato for dessert was delicious as well.

Side note: They were playing cool music, early Black Sabbath off Vol. 4 🤘🏼

I will definitely be back!“

Our server was helpful with appetizers (calamari and shared salads) and wine recommendations - including suggested half portions for some of the larger pasta entrees. A truly great dinner experience in a convenient Long Beach location!“

“Unbelievable experience! The entire time we felt like family and your can truly tell that the chef pours his heart and soul into his food. Tried the swordfish, pork chop, chicken and dumplings, and pasta… every dish was worthy of a Michelin star! Will definitely be back for more! Highly recommend Bar Becky!“

“We ordered the pesto, sausage and mushroom risotto, arancini and the cannolis. Everything was absolutely delicious and made with care. The main dishes were made fresh while we waited. The canollis were filled when we ordered them which kept the shells crispy. The details matter which makes their food amazing. And the owner and son are so nice. Great place. We will be back.“

“Came by on a whim through a recommendation from chatGPT lol. I was craving pasta. I ordered the one that starts with a T and my daughter ordered the one that starts with a P hehe. I can't remember the names! The pasta tasted fresh and the sauce was obviously cooked for a long time and tasty. I would come back and try another dish.“

“Fabulous restaurant in an elegant old style European decor. really miss it now that I no longer live in Long Beach“

“Tarantella on 4th in Long Beach is an absolute gem! From the moment you walk in, it feels less like a restaurant and more like stepping into a vibrant art gallery—every corner is full of personality and creative energy. The food is on another level—freshly made daily, and you can truly taste the difference in every bite. It’s the kind of place where quality and care shine through in every dish. If you're looking to unwind, the outdoor patio is a hidden oasis—intimate, relaxing, and perfect for enjoying a great meal with friends or family. Owners Carlos & Megan have created something really special here: a warm, family-friendly spot with amazing food and genuinely excellent service that makes you feel right at home. Yes, parking in the area can be a bit of a challenge—but trust me, it’s absolutely worth the effort. Tarantula on 4th is one of those places you’ll keep coming back to!those places you’ll keep coming back to!“

I came in worried about eating out cause I can’t have gluten, and as it turns out I did not get sick because you guys were extremely careful with my order. Thank you so much. I will be coming back to order again some day when I am in town.“

“We came as a party of 18. Sadly we were seated in a crammed space, spoke to management and they helped us move into a more comfortable table. Henry was our server, he was very nice, very patient and over all a great server. Managed to get everyone’s food and drinks out as ordered in a timely manner. Food was as expected. Again thanks for the experience.“

“Worst Alfredo Sauce ever! Extremely disappointed. I'm not sure what happened to them, but I'm guessing they ran out. And someone tried to put some together quickly with milk and water. Because that's exactly what it tasted like. And so expensive too. Huge let down....“

“I was craving some Za this weekend and found this spot across the street from Little Cesar's. I decided to give them a shot and was not let down.

I ordered Calzones one Pepperoni one Italian Sausage. Both of them were great very cheesy with thick crust and a good balance of sauce, dough, and meat.

I placed a pickup order over the phone and the girl that took my order was very helpful and said it would be ready in 15 minutes. When I scooped up my order they packed it generously with napkins, utensils, and two sauces (one Ranch and one Marinara)

Overall very satisfied and will definitely be coming back here!“

“The manager was extremely accommodating. I had a big group of teenagers that needed to practice and learn how to split a bill. The hostess and wait staff were extremely patient and welcoming towards them but also the parents that were staying to observe. This is a great place to have a get-together and enjoy a good meal in good company.“
