50 Best Italian Restaurants near New Castle

“AWESOME EVERYTHING GUYS!!KEEP UP THE OUTSTANDING WORK!“

“The pizza here is genuinely amazing. Like, it’s not greasy or over seasoned to the point that it’s sticking all over my fingers. It wasn’t burning my mouth. The pepperoni was spread nicely. And I got my slice pretty fast. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able try other things in the menu, though I usually go to pizzerias for their pizza.“

“I love your pizza! So good! First time having the torta de pollo and I wish it had the Oaxaca cheese as put in the site, and a salsa picante to go with it. I have never seen a torta without frijoles and iceberg lettuce but it was okay. I will stick with my pizza order going forward.“

“We had an extra large cheese pizza with fresh mushrooms. It was absolutely delicious. Best pizza. It was on special for 1299. You can’t beat that Price.!!! We also had a cheesesteak wrap without sauce so we could eat and drive. It was very easy to eat and it was delicious.“

“Evelyn was very pleasant and got everything we needed. Would recommend bertcci’s and our lovely server to everyone! 5 stars“

“Scalessa's gave me 2 great things. The first was the happy flashback of eating at Priori's at home. The secons was that Scalessa's food was out of this world. I had the Four Cheese Gnocchi which bards would write poems about. I cannot say enough about the awesomeness of this fine establishment! I will definitely come back when I visit my sister again.👍“

“Our stay here has been absolutely fantastic. The front desk attendant and valets guys are amazing. The staff has gone above and beyond to meet all of our needs.“

“Our 1st time there. always heard good things about DiPaolo's. It was all true. Great atmosphere the food was delicious and the staff were very nice and helpful. The prices are a bit high. Be prepared to spend a bit. Average dinner was $39. Appetizers about $20 - $35. However their specials were priced very good. Four of us with drinks, appetizers & Tip was $400.00. It was worth the trip for us. I totally recommend.“

They were able to accommodate me and worked like crazy to get it done. The cake I ordered was superb!!! If it had not been for the kindness of this store today, I don’t know what I would have done. The cashier, God Bless you. You went above and beyond to fix my mistake. Love you all!!!“

“The best pizza in Delaware. Veal marsala and eggplant parm are delious along with all their other dishes like tortellini and mussels. the friendly wait staff that remembers your name and what you drink. Just simply the best Italian place to eat and don't forget to get a cannoli or tiramusu“

“The owners are really nice and serve all of the food themselves.

The bread is great and the sauce was really flavorful. The arrancini balls were good.

The pasta was a bit dense and the gnocchi had a slightly weird taste to it.

The carpet makes the restaurant feel very mildewey and has a smell to it.“

“As always a traditional delicious Italian meal.“

“Just had a client dinner here and everything was AMAZING! Service, food, wine….. can’t wait to go back!“

“Tonight’s visit was very nice. Our server made our meal enjoyable. Prompt, professional and she enjoyed our cheese jokes. Thank you for a wonderful dinner“

“Excellent service and delicious food at reasonable price for the quality.“

“Love a place that doesn’t close at 10 and serves food late, AND good food at that! I ordered the Philly Steak and enjoyed it a lot. The roll was amazingly soft and fresh. The meat was chopped good and flavored well and it all came together deliciously. I would have enjoyed a tad more meat but there was enough that I’d didn’t make me put it all into one half. 8/10. Id surely go back. Only thing I’d suggest is a better IPA on tap such as Fiddlehead.“

“Been coming here for years. Delaware's hidden Italian secret!“

“Gnocchi were delicious. Next time there I'm getting something with meatballs. Friend gave me a bite of her's and it was perfect.“

“I went here when I first moved and the food was great! Been my go to spot since“

“Mike B. was our waiter and we enjoyed his service. He was down to earth and he opened up to my table about some of his personal experiences. Mike also recommended some great places to see while we were in the region, since we were visiting for a double relative’s funeral. The sites he recommended really lifted everyone’s down disposition from our funerals. It was just what we needed. Thanks Mike, your service made our whole trip all the better. Because of you, when we think of our Delaware trip, we will have happy memories along with the sad ones. Your thoughtfulness and kindness touched us all, signed your table out of Virginia and Detroit, MI“

“Love the pizza and wings, and the meatballs are delicious“

“Five of us had lunch at Cafe Verdi today. I only wish we had discovered it sooner! Between us we had four different pasta dishes and 1 salmon burger. Everything was excellent- fresh, nicely presented, and delicious! The family restaurant feel, the lovely music, and the people on staff made for a most enjoyable and memorable afternoon! We will definitely return- thank you, Sylvio!“

“We have loved enjoying the delicious food at Cafe Valentina. We have been coming here for more 15 years. We feel like we are dining at one of the finest restaurants in Italy. We were missing Fortuna and Giuseppe for the past six months but finally tonight we had the pleasure to see them at the restaurant. Everyone should come here and enjoy their delicious food. It is real Italian food and they have good prices.“

“I really enjoyed the grilled chicken salad because it had a lot of veggies and wasn't just lettuce. I also really enjoy getting the penne with meatballs in blush sauce because the dish is so full of flavor.“

“The morning/afternoon crew is the greatest! They make the best pizza around. But if you order after 6pm not so good! Whoever makes the pizza then is afraid to use cheese!! Can you have the morning guy (probably the owner) teach the late day guy how to make pizza?!“

“Love Roman pantry so much. We order regularly and once or twice a year I do a large (16ish) breakfast sandwich order for my teacher coworkers. It is phenomenal every time and everyone always loves it. Thank you guys!“

“being a transplant from nj 25 years i finally found authentic pizza and to my surprise a panzerotti..5 star“

“Recommended 100 % Professional Chef“

“Love this place go all the time get all the spaghetti dishes the staff great friendly people love it“

“I ordered online. My food was delivered 30 minutes faster than original time. I ordered the Mexican cheesesteak and was not disappointed! It was so good and lots of meat. The large fries are huge. We just moved to the area and can’t wait to try more items on the menu! ❤️“

“Yatz's is the BEST. Definitely in the top 3 of Delaware. The Ladies who create those delicious mouth watering subs are tremendously nice and very kind. The best part for me are the Tomatoes that Yatz's uses. I do not know where they get it from but when its laid on that turkey sub with a bag of chips and a cold one from their great juice selection....food ambiance at its finest. I usually pay for extra tomatoes!! Oh and the water ice in summertime, salud...“

“Primo is hoagies. Only thing is, if you don't like seeded rolls, this is not for you. Most places around northern Delaware use liscio rolls, which are the Mercedes of rolls. I love liscio rolls but the primo roll feels like a Rolls Royce transporting their premium ingredients to your stomach. Everything is top notch starting with the rolls, the meats and cheeses, down to the sides and staff at this location! Eat it now, and get a Whole size. Feed a family of 4 or have lunch for the better part of a week.“

“We ordered a cheese pizza with half roasted peppers . We also ordered fries . The food came out hot . The pizza was delicious and the peppers were cooked very nicely . The waitress was kind and very down to earth . We will eat there again“

“love them best hot wings ❤️“
