39 Best Italian Restaurants near Sylmar

“Ordered the 1/2 sandwich 1/2 salad and it was delicious! Second time here and I love it. The chicken Pesto sandwich is so good.“

“We went to grab some subs and wings and the lead waitress treated us like punished kindeegarteners, we decided to sit at the bar and she had so much to complain about how the ordering should be done , we were so hungry and she was not hospitable at all. So we decided to order 2 mix drinks they were 15$ each , I think the drinks were over priced. I have never paid 30$ for 2 mixed drinks plus a tip was like 37$. They have no happy hour. She was the most annoying person in the whole room with her comments towards her pals customers.“

“Delicious 😋Alfredo fetuchine“

“My first experience here was good. The submarine sandwich was very delicious, crazy big. More for a family to share. Ordered pizza slices and the pizza is very cheesesy and thick. The pepperoni is a bit on the oily side for me so I ordered the mushrooms and olives. The location is nice. Will definitely be coming back soon.“

“Such a great surprise to find homemade pasta and so local…just a few minutes away in Valley Village. Quaint setting with lively Italian music. Servers were delightful and attentive. Started with the most delicious Caeser salad and homemade garlic bread. Our entrees were all stellar—especially the lemon ricotta ravioli. Loved the reasonable portion sizes. Too full for dessert, sadly! Perfectly paired Italian wines, too. Will definitely return!“

“Great food-fresh and delicious Great owners“

“Really good classic Italian food in Burbank. We say didn't and ate. We got meatball sandwich which is really yummy. The meatballs are huge and the sauce is delicious. It's exactly what you want in a meatball sandwich Love the food here. There is also a little Italian market attached to the restaurant that has lots of good stuff and a little deli as well“

“Had the calamari, beef ravioli and bread pudding, it was very good.“

“Been going to this restaurant for years. The food has always been good, particularly the pizza.“

“This has ALWAYS been thee place to get a Delicious Pizza, scrumptious Bread, and yummy Lasagna! After 60 years, it is still Simply the Best! Outstanding service provided by Ricci which made our dining experience wonderful! Everyone cares about the customer all the way to the top! Joan listens to the customers to make sure that the food is the BEST and it IS! You MUST go to Chi-Chi's when you're in Northridge!“

“I wish I could give this place 100 stars! This is hands-down one of the best, most family-friendly spots in our community. We’ve been coming here for years, and every time, they deliver an amazing experience. The food is always fresh, flavorful, and consistent—and the warm, welcoming environment keeps us coming back.
Our most recent visit was just as wonderful. Our server was incredible—he took his time with our kids, was so patient, and made sure even our youngest felt included when placing his own order. That kind of kindness and attention to detail means a lot, especially to families with little ones.
The service is fast, the staff is always friendly and attentive, and the vibe of the place is just perfect for a casual night out or a weekend treat. You can tell this place truly values its customers and takes pride in everything they do.
We really hope they stay in this location for many years to come. It’s so important to have places like this in the neighborhood—where great food, great people, and great memories come together. Highly, highly recommend!“

“I’ve had to drive to Burbank frequently for work every so often over the last 2 years, and without fail, I always stop here for a pick me up!

Whether it’s a break to use the restroom and stretch while grabbing a delicious home style meal, or picking up some cookies or gelato before a long drive home. The team at Monte Carlo’s have the best attitude and never fail to brighten up any kind of day.

The perfect place for a comfort meal and good company.“

“Nice clean store and food was delicious. The girl at the front was so friendly and answered me questions about the menu. I ended up getting the lasagna garlic bread salad combo and it was so good and for less than $15! I ate the garlic bread first cuz it was so good that's why it's not in the picture LOL.“

“Fantastic service. All of the staff were delightful and cordial. Our server, Alexa, elevated our entire experience. She has a great sense of humor and is very quick witted! The atmosphere of this location has that indubitable je ne sais quoi that will make you drive an hour just to experience again. The cuisine was incredible - extremely pleasing on the palette, perfectly seasoned, and delivered with welcoming service.

Thanks again to our server, Alexa, for making our night!“

“I’m big fan of wood fire Pizza. Finally a halal spot. MashaAllah pizza is amazing. I love the crust. And the pizzas are light, so we got a couple options for me and my family.“

“Good food … we go there a lot … garlic bread, Italian food. I love the turkey and provolone salad.“

“So happy to have tried Sugo! I only dipped my toes into the flavor pool ordering only the French Fries and the Meatballs and sauce! Having had an Italian Chef for a Father, I grew up being able to tell good Italian flavors from a simple dish like Meatballs and Sauce (gravy)! Both were excellent from Sugo! Hot from heat, great texture and fine flavors and plenty of food! I'm looking forward to delving deeply into the menu next time! The rest of the family dinner was a hit with everyone too! Great food for the price! I highly recommend Sugo!“

“Good food. Not a huge menu but good choices. Kids like their food“

“I ordered delivery so I can't comment on anything but the food. The food was good but the alfredo sauce needs way more parmesan. Since I cook a lot I was easily able to fix it up and make it delicious but it technically should already come that way.
However, the prices are reasonable, and its difficult to hit that price point if you are spending tons of money on high quality parmesan.“

“Steph was absolutely wonderful! She was friendly, attentive, and made us feel so welcome from the moment we sat down. She checked in on us just the right amount and made sure everything was perfect. She truly made our Olive Garden experience enjoyable. Thank you, Steph!“

“Awesome food and the service was an 11 will be back soon thanks“

“It looks perfected, they are very generous with the amount of cheese and toppings. I look forward to seeing you again :)“

“While the dish was enjoyable, I noticed that the flavor profile could benefit from a bit more depth. The pizza, while not unpleasant, seemed to lack a certain richness that would enhance its overall taste. It's not that the current flavor is disagreeable; rather, I believe an added touch of seasoning or ingredient could elevate the taste to a more satisfying level.I understand that taste preferences can vary, and this is simply my personal observation. I appreciate the effort that goes into crafting your menu items and recognize the high quality of your offerings. I wanted to bring this to your attention in the spirit of constructive feedback, as I believe a slight adjustment could make an already great dish even more exceptional.“

“So I have been to taste Evo four times now and I'm never disappointed I knew immediately it was a family operated restaurant and the mother there is has become a mom to me also the family is really nice the food is always fresh and delicious and the wings are baked and not fried and that makes it like 1,000 times better and healthier and this is now my new favorite place😁💜“
