50 Best Italian Restaurants near Rowland Heights

“Monday 5/12/25 Dinner with my son. Enjoying a wonderful meal; father & son night out. The foods were good. There are a large selection of dishes on the menu. It would take a person to visit numerous times to try all the dishes they offered; it’s good if you are a local.

You get unlimited pasta and soup and your choice of protein if you pay extra.

Overall, it was nice to try the different type of pasta they had. Take advantage of this deal for it's gone.“

“Wednesday 1/21/26 Dinner at Bambino Felice. Ordered the La Supreme Pizza. The restaurant use fresh ingredients and cheese that comes out piping hot! So good, I almost finished the whole pizza by myself but need to hold back as it is only January and I don’t want to break my new year resolution of losing some weight so early; Maybe next month as statistically most people break their new year resolution. lol

I got the pleasure of meeting Ivan, restaurant owner, who took my order and go over their numerous specialty dishes. Thank you Ivan for your hospitality.

I will bring my friends and colleagues back to try other dishes. The restaurant’s service staffs worked hard and quickly to serve their customers.

I recommend trying out this restaurant.

“Great food and great service! What more can you ask for!“

“We have been coming to Luigi’s for about 20 years and it never disappoints. My husband always gets chicken parm and I get the Tortillini D’ Angelo and it is amazing. The pizza is also great. You won’t be disappointed. Great food, good service and prices.“

“It’s just a fun place to meet friends and have a good meal.“

“Had a rehearsal dinner for our sons wedding here. The food was great and service was awesome. This was the first time for Angie and O to eat at a Buck di Beppo and glad we had such a great experience.“

“I'm not the biggest fan of Olive Garden, but this time I went with my family and we were a party of 8. We all had the lunch special and a lot of soup. If anything, that's what makes Olive Garden great. Anyways, two managers came by to ask how we were, and one of them congratulated me for graduating. It made us all laugh. I graduated years ago. I was just wearing a Harry Potter robe LOL! But it was a funny time that day receiving so many congratulations.

Anyhow, I ordered the fettuccine Alfredo. Not anything wowing but definitely not Spaghetti Factory bad. It was good.“

“Spicy Red Pesto Vodka Linguine with shrimp 🤤“

“love the food and service is great“

“This is our second restaurant in La Vern we visited. A very cozy and friendly atmosphere. The area is semi residential and commercial. A perfect suburban setting. Inside the restaurant doesn't have many seating. Mostly are outside. We thought it'd be cold, but surprisingly it was not. Those heaters worked very well. We ordered some appetizers and a plate of salmon with angel pasta.
Food was delicious. Service was superb.
Parking was a little challenging. We found some parking around the 2nd block on the street.
No complain though. It is suburban!“

“Neat appearance and delicious food“

“Absolutely delicious! This local pizza spot is my family’s favorites. The crust is perfectly crispy on the outside and soft inside, and the toppings taste super fresh. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, and the place has a cozy home vibe. My family has been coming here for many years, quality has been always great. I have been making group orders for school events, the owner is very accommodating, the pizzas we got are all hot and taste amazing! If you’re looking for best pizza and great service, I definitely recommend stopping by!“

“First time here. We saw a review on facebook and decided to try it out. Very small place but cute. We walked in and was left standing not knowing if we sit ourself and there were several tables that needed to be cleaned off. An elderly lady looked at us and did not acknowledge us so I said, shall we seat ourselfs? The lady was the owner Angela, which seemed like she was taking orders, serving and making food. We sat down with no menus and my husband had to get up and go to the counter and Angela just said can I help you? Wow. We never even got our water until 1/2 hour later. We sat at a table next to the womens bathroom and the area smelled a little of sewer which was not enjoyable. Finally she took our order. We ordered a small pepperoni pizza and shared a antipasta salad which was very good and the pizza was good. My hubby ordered to go an sausage & pepper sandwich. The sandwich not so good. It was very salty and the sausage tasted old. Service was extremely slow. We are not sure if we will give it another try or not based on our experience.“

“I recently came here with my friends and I had a great experience. I got unlimited pasta and each was just as good as the last. My waitress was amazing and attentive. Even the staff who weren’t my waitress were helpful and willing to attend to us. I recommend this location.“

“Had the “Aloha” for dinner… Delicious! We’ll be back. ❤️❤️“

“Fun location with delicious entrees, salads, drinks and so much more!“

“Ordered via uber eats and picked up at the La Habra location. I usually go to the Whittier location on Lambert, but they were not on uber eats and had some credit to use up. Anyway, was easy to order and pick up but noticed the options were a little different at this location, like the lack of Mac salad as an option. No big deal. The potato salad was just fine. The sandwich seemed a little thinner than I’m used to as well, or at least the bread was. The amount of meat seemed equivalent though, so maybe just a fluke. Anyway, satisfied the craving well enough and the sandwich is still more than enough for one meal for me. Service was pleasant enough for a pick up order and had a nice note on the bag waiting for me :)“

“All menu items are really good. garlic knots n pasta are favs“

“Best pizza in town! Excellent service and the place is really well run. Very reasonable prices too. Keep it up guys.“

“I enjoyed a wonderful time at this cozy pizza spot. Our party of eight was served with warm smiles, quick help, and truly tasty dishes. The setting felt artistic and inviting, adding charm to the meal. I’ll happily return for another visit.“
