50 Best Italian Restaurants near Saratoga

“Very good Italian restaurant“

“We had great experience at Florentine Trattoria. I had Crab and Shrimp pasta and it was the most delicious seafood pasta, I have ever had. I asked Alexandro: how your shrimps are so fresh. He smiled and said: Because they are fresh. Also pasta and bread were outstanding! Friendly fast service, good prices, elegant ambiance, delectable food make Florentine Trattoria one of the best restaurants in Bay Area!“

“Outstanding food and service. Highly recommend as the best Italian Restuarant in the Bay Area“

“I will be back! Staff service and food are exceptional!“

“Great place for corporate events! Our team attended IBASV's bocce ball tournament last week and the food/atmosphere were great!“

“Celebrating my husband's 65th Birthday. Took a excursion today to cool off out of the valley heat and searched out an authentic Italian meal. I ordered the Linguini and fresh Clams with roasted peppers and light cream sauce. The results were delicious with excellent flavor and presentation. Hubby needed his Cavatelli with red gravy as a side dish since he hasn't found anything like this in our area. He also ordered Lasagna as the main course and we were surprised to see a very large portion! The bread, and I am not a bread eater, was heavenly. Hubby claims good Italian bread is like eating cake and I couldn't agree more with him more. I am now a convert! The pasta is homemade, the red gravy is delicious. We will be returning. Thank you for being here for all of us Italian food lovers ❤️“

“They have to best ravioli. My family has been getting them for over 60 years. I live in texas now, I haven't been there in years, I miss them so much! Most of my family is in Sacramento now and will go to La Villa just to get the ravioli!“

“Delicious and delightful! It was the authentic Italian cuisine and experience I was hoping for and craving. It was a gorgeous day so I dined on the front patio in the sunshine and ordered Fettuccine con Pollo with sun-dried tomatoes and mushrooms. My favorite pasta dish! This restaurant is popular and a local favorite, so I recommend dining in the late afternoon after the lunch rush. The experience was worth every penny.“

“BEsteak.A is an exceptional steakhouse that deserves every bit of its five-star rating. From the moment we stepped in, the service was impeccable—attentive, knowledgeable staff who made us feel welcomed throughout. The ambiance was enhanced by the soothing music playing in the background, setting a relaxed tone for the evening. I opted for the bone-in New York steak, and I must say, it was a masterpiece. The presentation was unlike any other steakhouse I've been to—the steak arrived perfectly cooked and beautifully plated. What surprised me pleasantly was their unique twist on the starter; instead of the usual bread, we were served a delightful plate of fresh vegetables with a decadent cheese dipping sauce—a refreshing change that set the tone for the meal ahead. The open kitchen concept added to the experience, allowing us to see the skill and dedication of the chefs firsthand. Overall, BEsteak.A not only delivered on taste but also on ambiance, service, and creativity. It's a place I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a top-notch dining experience.“

“100% recommend, comfort food and great service. Best cannolo I’ve had in San Jose ! The garlic knots are okay, their dough is really nice though. But the chicken with penne was delicious! My fiancé had the veal and he really liked it!“

“We had excellent service for our large party of 10. Our server, Westin, was wonderful. We were there to celebrate my daughter’s big 30! We all had a wonderful time, food was exceptional and so was the service.“

“The food here is very good but even better is the service. The staff was very genuine, attentive and quick. Maybe the best service I've had in my life. I'm not in the area often but would definitely go again“

“Exceptional and very charismatic service, with the slight caveat that the atmosphere becomes a touch less intimate date vibes and a touch more “you're dining in Italy with family” vibes. As long as you understand that you will love it!“

“What a pleasant dining experience. Was greeted at the door by the owner, staff were very attentive and the foods amazing!“

“The best Italian food in San Jose! Service is always very personable, food comes out quickly, and bread, pizza, and pasta are to die for. I don’t know anyone who didn’t think it was one of the best places they’ve tried, and it’s near the movies. I had both of my daughters' birthday parties there.“

“Been going here my whole life. We know the family and are very close. Amazing food, amazing service, amazing atmosphere.“

“..finally had a chance to try the new restaurant, wonderful!!“

“Mio Vicino is a Santa Clara institution. Consistently great food. Friendly atmosphere. It’s a Perry family go to place for sure! 😎👍🏼“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Incredible Experience! From the moment we walked in tonight, everything about this Italian restaurant was pure magic. The ambience was a great family friendly made even more special by the wonderful gentleman playing the accordion — such an authentic touch that transported us straight to Italy. The service was impeccable - attentive without being intrusive — and every detail was handled with care. And the food… perfection! The Sole was simply divine — light, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. Each bite was a reminder of why true Italian cuisine is all about quality and passion. A must-visit for anyone who loves great food, beautiful atmosphere, and genuine hospitality. I can’t wait to return! 🇮🇹🍷✨ Dreamgate Events Birmingham Alabama“

“Love the food and the atmosphere!“

“Scopazzi’s has long since been a favorite venue for the BCBA to host events. From dinner/auction fundraisers to roundtable meetings to lunch meetings and now our 1st annual community planning event. They knocked it out of the park today for the CPE! Thank you to Talal and all of the staff!“

“Pompeii is a wonderful family-owned gem in Los Altos. The service is always friendly and attentive, and the food absolutely delicious. The chicken parmesan, lasagna, and linguine are some of our favs, paired with their fresh homemade bread. You can really taste the care that goes into everything!“

“Best deep dish pizza its not the first time i m highly satisfied with the food and service time and time they keep on impressing me. Though i had vegetarian deep dish it was so delicious i had to order 2 more. Must try for the vegetarian and also fast and great service“

“One of the best places to have a big party. The banquet rooms are spacious; you can seat up to 160 guests. I’ve hosted 2 events here already - my parents’ 50th anniversary in 2014 and my 50th birthday this year. Easy process to reserve the space & select menu. Great customer service from all staff.“

“The Doppio Zero Pizza will change your life!“

“Excellent food and service!“

“Best Italian food in South San jose ca, their cannolli is number 1 in the he south bay, they make their own shells (very crispy) and the filling is perfection. The menu has variety, and the service is top notch. The prices are reasonable.“

“Good daily special. Friendly staff good food.“

“Love this place! Gets better every time! Excellent service. Excellent food! Authentic Italian. 🇮🇹🍕☕️“

“I returned for more Italian food and wasn’t disappointed. I had the Locanda Spritz, which was tasty. We started with bruschetta, which had fresh basil and olives. For entrees, we shared the San Daniele pizza and vodka pasta. The vodka pasta was exceptional—definitely a must-try! Overall, another great experience!“

“Some of the best pizza we’ve had in California. And our server was friendly, engaging, and effective! Great experience we’ll be back!!“

“Pinsa (Flatbread) and the Mushroom Ravioli were exceptional dishes. Our favorite plates out of the 3 we ordered. We also had the carbonara but there was an after taste that did not sit well. Most likely from the cheese? Service was slightly slow however only the bartender was on shift.“

“I discovered the place by accident. I was next door inside Michaels having some art pieces custom framed when I decided to look for a place to stop by to eat. I was starving. I was craving for pasta. And thats how I got to discover this place. I ordered the chicken fettucine alfredo. Love the dish with its chunky chicken pieces and al dente pasta. The complimentary cheese sticks with that cheese pimiento cheese spread was a delightful surprise. Next time Ill check their lasagna and clam chowder. I heard their clam chowder is as good as Boulins in San Francisco. I dont have to make a drive to the city to enjoy a good bowl of chowder. The lasagna looks so rich as well as their chopino. Im definitely comjng back.“

“Easily one of the best pizzas in Los Altos - perfectly cooked with tons of flavor (and it’s consistently good). For families, they have a kids’ menu with good-sized pasta portions and kid-sized cheese pizzas if you have picky eaters, like one of ours is!“

“Excellent take out place. Reasonable prices for the portions.

We ordered through food delivery service and the food came piping hot and nicely packed.

We ordered penne a la vodka with sausage, meat lasagna, caprese salad, and Ceasar salad. Everything was well cooked and tasted delicious. The portions are a good size for the price. The 4 dishes came out to just over $100 with tax, fees, & tip.

Would absolutely order from here again.“

“Holy mercy... This place popped up twice today, once when my wife was browsing TikTok (😒) but again in The Downtowner newsletter I receive, so we went for a late lunch. We didn't realize that it was a shared space, so we also got to try a slice of pizza and some fries, both of which came out quickly and very fresh, and I had an Old Fashioned, just because. By the time we finished the pizza and the fries, we didn't even get a chance to try the sandwich, so we took it to-go, a bit disappointed that we didn't try it hot and fresh.

Well. I just tried a bite a bit ago, and even cold and a bit soggy, it. Was. Incredible. My only real reference to an Italian beef sandwich is the few times I've tried Portillo's in the Midwest, and this was head and shoulders above their offerings. My bite turned into me finishing half of the sandwich without even realizing it. Their herb/spice blend is amazing, and I am now counting down the days until we have an excuse to get back out to Little Italy--we don't live far, so hopefully it won't be too long!“

“The best Italian restaurant in the Bay Area! Fresh outstanding delicious food! Never disappointed with whatever I order! The staff are very professional and so kind and enjoyable atmosphere! Love the pear salad!“

“authentic Calabrese food - molto bene!“

“Great happy hour ! Nothing beats SF Restaurant HH“

“Had open availability for Valentine's Day through this app for reservations. Had a Valentine's Day menu along with their regular menu. I really liked the pesto pistachio shrimp pasta (so sorry I don't remember the name). We were seated in a nice spacious booth. I really liked the privacy and intimacy of it. The total price for our meals were cheaper than a more popular restaurant I would say & the food and atmosphere was way more nicer than other places.“

“Very good quality of foods and very friendly personel. I'm often ordering foods from there. One of my favorite take-out kitchens! Recommended

Parking: There is many food delivery restorants and half of parking lots during day were busy by doordashers, but, still many free spots to park.“

“Best Italian food and best steaks“

“Excellent food, atmosphere and staff! Happy hour menu a PLUS!“

“I've eaten here many times, both onsite and takeout. For this recent visit, we got takeout. I had Linguine Leonardo, one of my favorites. My husband had Chicken Marsala and my dad had Linguine Portofino. The Leonardo has chicken, spinach, and sundried tomatoes sautéed in olive oil and garlic. It's a nice variety of flavors and the tomatoes are a great burst of flavor. The pasta is homemade and delicious. My husband enjoyed his Marsala. It had a lot of sauce, with mushrooms and onions. The chicken was pounded thin. My dad enjoyed the Portofino and ate every bite. All of our dishes came with a side salad, breadsticks, and their delicious cheese spread.“

“Great meal as usual. Friendly service“

“Me and my family ended up choosing this place due to its close proximity. The guy who took our order was humbled and nice.

The pizza itself has a nice and flavorful pizza sauce which is sweet, the crust also has a nice crunch to it. The veggies were also delightful.“

“Definitely get the garlic shrimp fettuccini Alfredo. It’s the best thing I’ve eaten there!“
