Italian Restaurants near Newport

“Was there a few days ago, the counter girl destiny or desiray was so kind and was very helpful. She is a great addition to the restaurant. And the food is amazing“

“Whitney was great and very attentive.“

“Food was excellent. What’s a good Italian restaurant without good Italian bread? None was offered to enjoy the juices that remained on the bottom of our dish. It is also unfortunate that wine could not be enjoyed with our meal, a neighborhood thing we were told. If coming during a cold winter night don’t forget to dress extra warm, a warm cozy atmosphere wasn’t present…..but our food was the best I have had in Wilmington.“

“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.“

“The staff was so amazing. There ability to recall the menu and make suggestions for me was nice/helpful. We were celebrating my friends birthday and they brought out a nice cake and candle. Loved the atmosphere, the food was delicious, and desserts were out of this world tasty.“

“Went to Maria's by Di Paolo's for music and dinner show. The food and service were good. The venue is too small for a live band. The acoustics are terrible. It's wedding seating, large round tables, assigned by restaurant.“

“Always good always consistent! My favorite restaurant in the city 2024!“

“Tonight my husband and I celebrated our 2nd wedding anniversary by ordering catering from Italian Kitchen. They were our wedding caterers and we absolutely loved the food! Our favorite dish from our wedding was the mushroom ravioli and we thought it would be great to have that for dinner tonight to celebrate. When I went on the website, there wasn’t mushroom ravioli on the menu so I was worried they didn’t have it anymore. I called and the staff said they’d ask their boss if they could make it and turns out they could make it for us! We got a whole tray! My husband and I were so happy and it tasted just like it tasted two years ago! So good!!! Thank you, Italian Kitchen staff and owners for making my anniversary special and delicious!!!! 💕“

“I am Holly's husband we went to Pastabilities on Saturday night with our son and his fiancee. Everything we ate was on point! From the appetizers, entrees to desert! We found the service to be excellent, Otis was our waiter and he couldn't have been more friendly or professional. Everything we ordered was freshly made and delicious. We will definitely be back Luigi serves some of the best Italian food I ever ate since my Grandmothers cooking!“

“Great pizza with eggplant! As I was leaving I saw a display of arancini (rice balls filled with meat and cheese) which I added to my order. They were excellent, highly recommend them! I will ask Luigi to make a few more of these!!“

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

“just love the place my favorite restaurant love the food the atmosphere friendly staff can’t say enough about it“

“Nice neighborhood pizza joint. Definitely changed hands in the last few years (no updates to the interior, 90s throwback vibe). Pizza was hot and the crust was tasty. It’s a chill, seat yourself kinda place otherwise take out or delivery works too.

*The menu lists beer options however none is available.

Vegetarian options: Lots of Veggie-Friendly options in all sections.“

“Outstanding dining experience. Delicious food & wonderful atmosphere.“

“Had a retirement dinner party at Brio last night. My experience planning with Christine, the Regional Sales Manager and with Miranda, one of the Managers at Brio was beyond my expectations. They were both a pleasure to work with. Miranda did a great job preparing the room and was available with her charming smile everytime we needed her! Our servers; Lawrence, Sofia and Erin were just as wonderful! Shoutout to Erin for helping me connect Smartview with the TV when we had a technical glich!! If you need to plan a party and need a private room for 50 people or less, with delish food, drinks that are not watered down, and great customer service, I highly recommend Brio!!“

“Service and food were absolutely amazing! I can't wait to go back!“

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

“Very clean and very friendly. The owner is a really nice guy, he checked up on my son and I and you can tell that he loves what he does very passionate about his food. The cheesesteaks are really good will not disappoint. The sandwich is filled just right so you can eat it and not wear it. The chicken parm sandwich my son tore it up and said it was one of the best ones he has had. French fries are the way they are supposed to be not seasoned or curly just plain great fries. Buffalo wings damn good size not from a baby chicken full grown bird, got the mild sauce and it had a good flavor. Now the pizza! Great crust, thin on the deck and holds really well no saggy slice. True mozzarella not mixed with Provalone you will be able to tell when you taste it, the sauce on the pizza is perfect not sweet or to thick just right. Planning on going back to try more food. Very good menu to choose from and I can imagine it won't disappoint either. This family that runs this place I believe cares about quality to customers, good people, good food what else can you ask for? Next time I'll actually take pics of the food lost track after I bit into the cheesesteak.“

“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“

“Not only is the food delicious, but the customer service is truly top-notch. When it came to a minor confusion with an order, the staff, more specifically the owner, Susan, went absolutely above and beyond in resolving the matter. Rocco's continues to be our favorite restaurant when the Italian-cravings hit and would recommend anyone and everyone to experience this local gem for themselves.“

“Went on a Friday night! Did have children with us but would definitely recommend for adults as well lol!!Food was outstanding. Different n delicious was THE Romana alla Griglia which was Grilled Romaine hearts topped with caramelized onion, goat cheese, and crispy pancetta dressed with balsamic vinaigrette!! A must try for something different to start your meal!! Soups entrees just delicious!!“

“I love everything I ordered. I highly recommend Cafe Sitaly. Even when I have to wait, it's worth my time. It's Delicious 😋🤤“

“We have been to La Fia multiple times and the food and service never disappoint. Main dishes, gnocchi and branzino were excellent. Service was superb and we had no problem making it to our show even they were extremely busy. Food is a great value given the quality and portion sizes.“

“Sabatina's knocked it out of the park for my husband's birthday. we ordered a couple of sandwich trays and chicken tenders and everything was fresh and outstanding! the ladies in the shop even helped my daughter and I carry our food down the street since it was DE City Day and Clinton Street was blocked off. We can't wait to order again!“

“First and foremost yes it’s inside of what seems to be a dieing mall. But to get to the point there is basically more food spots in the mall then actual interesting stores in my opinion so I went there to eat because I hadn’t had food yet. With that being said I kept walking almost to the end of the mall by where sears was and there it was. I have to say the place is great from service to food everything was amazing! If I was more local I would definitely stop in often. Our server was super friendly and outgoing she had no issue getting us anything that was needed she even took a soup back that I didn’t like without any hesitation or attitude that most other places would not do. The food was great the place was clean bar options were great like I said I have not 1 complaint . Picture was from the complimentary bread they give , and a special of the lobster/crab and shrimp ravioli . We also got the chicken parm sandwich so cheesy and the special steak which was pretty loaded! Crinkle cut fries with cheese were also great! Unfortunately didn’t take pics of the other stuff but if you like Italian food do not hesistate to stop by!!!“

“La-la the bartender and waitress is so friendly and committed to you getting a great meal. The menu has a lot of great options, food was nicely prepared and it was convenient to take out for our room at attached hotel (Sturbridge suites and Ramada are both attached). Dining room is dated but laid back would be easy for a family. Super value.“

“We visited last night. We were greeted right away. The service was so good. I had Shells Aurora. Simply amazing. Pasta and chicken was cooked perfectly. My boyfriend didn't see chicken marsala on the menu. only chicken parmesan.He asked and they made him the chicken marsala. So good too. We ordered wine. I had the Cabernet and he had the Pino Noir .Both wines were rich and savory. Very tasty. The floor manager even came up to make sure we were happy. That was very nice. we received the check and the server boxed up our food for us. The check really was not expensive. I paid and gave a 25% tip. I normally don't care either way with itailian resteraunts but this place was so nice. Rustic and warm atmosphere, pleasant staff, and amazing food. Will visit again for sure.“

“First time back since last months fiasco. Today was a 100% improvement. We had Will today and he made it an enjoyable experience. Salad was fresh and entrees were great. Thank you Will for restoring our faith. Even had dessert.“

“Your food was excellent when we got married 6/9/10 and we had a wonderful lunch there today as well for our ten year anniversary. Everything was great!“

“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!“

“Friendly staff, timely arrival of food to the table, and clean facilities! Nicole ensured we never had empty cups and was punctual throughout our dining experience. If these things are important to you, then you will absolutely have a great experience as well.“

“Hidden Gem indeed! Great meal for take out. The lobster ravioli is fantastic!“

“HIGHLY RECOMMEND: 2 large pizzas for $23.99. That is an astronomically good deal. They offer that everyday. I would NOT recommend the “specialty” pizzas that come out to $22.99 a pop. With these kinds of pizza places it’s always about the calories per dollar. The staff here is fun and is down to chat when they have time. Kevin, Paul, Rob, and Mickey are all really cool staff and are when they have down-time they love to crack jokes to make your day. This place is split into a takeout spot and a dine-in spot. I went with the takeout although the dine-in looks like a chill Italian restaurant to bring your grandparents.“

“I don't come here enough! The food was exceptional, and the specials list is always kept fresh! The wine list has something for everyone, even the most discerning oenophile! Formal setting is great for dates or business meeting, and service is always above part! Great experience all around!“

“I’ve heard good thing about the brick oven pizza so I wanted to give it a try. I ordered the brick oven plain pizza and buffalo wings. The pizza was very good cooked perfect. It was crispy a little chard on the crust gave it a nice little charcoal flavor. The wings were cooked crispy. I never had the wings here do I settled for the medium sauce. It was tasty and not overly hot. Fast and friendly service at a fair price. Will definitely be back.“

“They have the freshest mozzarella and prosciutto I have had from a restaurant in awhile. The service was fast and friendly. The garlic bread is TO DIE FOR! You won’t be disappointed!“

“I order frequently from Ciao. I have never been disappointed. The food is always good and leaves everyone satisfied. I highly recommend.“

“Going to Tony's is always a wonderful experience. The owners and staff are amazingly warm and friendly. And of course, the food is mouth watering delicious; the very best around.“
