50 Best Italian Restaurants near Pike Creek

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

“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.“

“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.“

“Excellent food and wine!! Kind to identify which items could be made GF. Nice atmosphere. Best Chicken Marsala I’ve had in a long time. Quiet booth in the back. An enjoyable evening with my favorite person! Thank you @Cafe Napoli! All the best! —just passing through, but pleased“

“It's Olive Garden. Food is usually quite consistent. I got the all you can eat soup, salad, and bread sticks. Had the Minestrone and Chicken Gnocchi soups with the regular salad and the bread sticks. All good. Larry is a professional server, been at it a long time. He's quick, friendly, and thorough. Always a pleasure when he waits on my table.

Vegetarian options: I say much of the menu is vegetarian or can be made vegetarian, but cheese is on many dishes, so that may dissuade some.“

“😀We went there last night and it was AMAZING , food ,service ,selection , . Outstanding . Dan Is on firer & paying great attention to his food & guest . Once again one of the best in Wilmington .“

“Guiseppe great to see you serving your very tasty and freshly made Italian food at the Saint Anthony’s festival in Wilmington. Delicious pappardelle with braciole and an excellent sausage with broccoli rabe over risotto! Very well done! And when I miss it I can come to your restaurant too!! All the best!! Alfredo“

“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!!“

“The manager was extremely kind and helpful. We arrived very late and the kitchen was closed but he offered us a few pizza options and we were more than grateful!! Pizza was delicious and the wait staff was very friendly and attentive. We can’t wait to go back and try the rest of the menu and really appreciate how customer friendly everyone was.“

“Was not our first visit. We started with the olive app and the beet salad. Both were very nice. Entrees were the veal roll up and spinach/barata risotto. Perfectly delicious. Our server was knowledgeable and attentive. We'll keep returning to this lovely gem.“

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

“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.“

“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!!“

“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.“

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

“We heard about this place via Facebook and had to come try it out for ourselves. We tried their cheesesteaks. I have to say they were really good. They really pack a lot of steak! The owner interacted with us and was super cool and so nice. He was confident we’d come back and I think he’s right lol. We must try the cold subs next. Can’t go wrong with a nice Italian hoagie. Thank you Sonny for your generosity. Praying your establishment will last for many years to come.“

“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.“

“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!“

“Am from Illinois. I am not a thick crust type o guy but it seems as if this location enjoys such. Having tried 3 different pizza joints, Nick and Joe's is by far the best. From crust to sauce to cheese and ingredients, this establishment knows how to bake a pizza. Everytime I visit this area, I will come back here to enjoy this delicious menu. Thankyou for servicing a heartland worker.“

“We have not been herein a while and we are so glad we came back. We sat at the bar and the bartender was very attentive with a full bar. We had apps and drinks and it was all delicious. Definitely coming back. It’s a beautiful upscale restaurant.“

“a couple months ago, we passed through the developing dining and drinking district of Elkton and I made a mental to return and see what the downtown area had to offer… we parked on Main Street and immediately felt the hospitality of the town…being a Vegan/modified, I’m sometimes not the easiest diner to please… the first place we stopped was friendly, but their limited menu just didn’t cut it, so we walked a little further and entered the Elk River Brewing Company… when I announced our desire to eat, it almost became a group project around the bar to find us a satisfactory restaurant from which to order… Chaz, a customer at the brewery highly recommended Enzo’s and offered to pick it up for us…Enzo’s has a very full menu and I finally decided on the Pescatore over angel hair… Chaz picked it up and brought it back to the bar: it was SUPER-delicious…it was a very generous portion, and it was the kind of meal to “write home about…” on our next visit to Elkton, we will surely go directly to Enzo’s…based on my experience, they get a solid Five Big Stars…Vinny and Jackie, we look forward to meeting you personally and dining again at your fantastic restaurant!“

“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!“

“A rare gem with a farm to table feel. This venue gave a perfect balance of modern and rustic decor with a staff of old school American hospitality and excellence. The owners at the Sovana must have taken great care in hiring, training, and maintaining their staff. Brendan, the manager, and Even, our server, took every available measure to ensure that our two person party was given a dining experience that would become one of our greatest. We came for the charcuterie boards and nothing was left to chance. Each component was fresh, proportionate, and expertly paired with just the right additions. The pickled carrots quickly my favorite. The number of cheese options was unmatched! I have had boards in and out of the country, but I’ve never come across a menu with so many options, cheese variations, and or customizable side boards. By the time we left, Brendan had welcomed us into the Sovana Family, Even had filled our bellies with a meal to cry over, and on the drive home my husband and I planned our next visit. This experience will become a recurring part of our self care.“

“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.“

“Took grandkids to 896 Pie today after a swim in the pool. Great service and amazing pizza. Brent is the owner and he was so friendly and engaged with his customers. All the grandkids and two adults enjoyed the perfectly cooked pizza. Thanks for a great visit“

“It was really good thanks!“

“Great place! Site of our first date, were back last night. Great experience at the bar, capped off by Patrick buying us dinner as an engagement gift. Thanks all, but especially Patrick!!“

“A nice little pizza shop, I’m happy to have found today at work. They serve a crisp thin crust pizza that isn’t too heavy on the sauce or cheese, and therefore not overly greasy as well. (I know pizza is subjective but that’s exactly how I like it). I thought it was delicious and will likely try a sandwich next time. I’d love to see a chicken ceasar wrap on the menu someday, but there’s plenty of options there now. Very friendly people, and fair prices too. It appears to be take-out only, but there’s a few outdoor tables for nice weather. Ample parking, order from the kiosk inside, credit accepted/cash appreciated. Highly recommended.“

“The gluten free pizza is delicious and safe for those with even the most gluten sensitivity! Highly recommend!“

“Dom's NY Pizzeria is an amazing place to eat and incredibly kid friendly! We brought the majority of our 10U Hockey Team from NC to dinner at Dom's after our night game this past weekend. Dom, his management team, and the servers were able to accommodate 40 plus people beautifully. The kids and parents had great food and a great time! Our food was timely and hot. The service was amazing. The owner and manager were incredibly friendly and easy to work with. Our whole team would highly recommend Dom's NY Style Pizzeria. Our whole team wanted to go back again! Hope to visit Dom's again when we come back in October.

Kid-friendliness: Dom's NY Pizzeria is incredibly kid friendly. We brought our whole 10U Hockey Team from NC to dinner at Dom's after our night game. Dom, his management team, and the servers were able to accommodate 40 plus people beautifully. The kids and parents had great food and a great time! Dom's had a large room that was able to accommodate our large party. The kids were well behaved but were able to socialize and celebrate after the game in a space that was perfect for a large party and perfect for not disrupting other customers. Big shout out to Dom's NY Style Pizzeria! We will definitely be back if we are in the area!“

“Always been a fan for years, but only eat from here every so often cause of their prices compared to the many regular pizza shops around. I'm glad they became available thru GrubHub recently out here in Elkton! Sometimes the sizing of the Large size pizzas can be debatable which shouldn't be an issue at the pricing. Love Anthony's!“

“Delicious food! Enjoyable atmosphere and the staff were great!“

“Can't believe I've never reviewed one of my favorite restaurants.

Pizza is outstanding here, but my favorite thing is the smiley chicken sandwich. It's the greatest chicken sandwich in all of the land. The chips absolutely rule too.“
