12 Best Italian Restaurants in Gainesville

“I went in and ate alone. I had Nonna's Spaghetti with a garden salad. The best Spaghetti I have eaten at a restaurant. The foccia bread was seasoned just right with rosemary. The honey balsamic glaze was delicious. I drank a glass of Moscato with my meal. I had flan inhouse and took home tiramisu. The waitress Sharmenda was absolutely wonderful. I will be back with my family. Thank you all so much for a fantastic experience.“

“Food is great. Service is very good. Totally recommend.“

“Minestone was different everytime I ordered it. There is no consistency with the food. I ordered the rigatoni w/creamy mushroom and it had very little sauce, some noodles were cold. The minestrone first bowl was exactly how it's supposed to be, the 2nd bowl was NOTHING but beans(no noodles, no tomatoes) they need to do better with the consistency...everytime I go, its ALWAYS different.“

“Ate at Leonardos last night and ordered a Big Leo. Thought something was missing in the toppings. Couldn’t determine at restaurant. Had a piece for lunch today and found out not a spec of sausage on the pizza. Come on guys, you’re not giving them away.“

“First visit tonight. Best pizza I have ever had! And the wings were amazing also! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“The food was absolutely fantastic.“

“I have been to Sandy’s place twice now, each time a a different but absolutely amazing experience. The food is great and staff is very friendly and welcoming. The new owner and chef is amazing too! I highly recommend.“

“One of the best spots in town. I think the reason I choose this over other places so often is because you simply get more bang for your buck, which is increasingly important. I Want to recommend the pasta in particular. Pasta at so many eateries is overpriced. You've got to pay over $20 a person to get something decent. But you can spend $15 here at I Love NY Pizza on something that tastes great and is big enough to feed multiple people. That's tough to beat!“

“The food here has always been pretty decent. The prices seem to stay the same for the most part. You can always find some good deals on their website, and we get great customer service when we go. One thing I will say is the inside definitely could use some work when it comes to cleanliness as the tables are always sticky and the floor is not very clean.“

“Good food good customer service“

“First time here and we loved it!! Sarah was awesome! All 4 of us loved our dinner! Great wine! A Must stop in Gainesville!!“

“I give them 5 stars even though there was a set back due to something that was out of their control and DoorDash took an 1 1/2 to deliver my food and my that time I just asked them to let me pick it up! Nicole was so willing to help and even took some things off due to the wait and was so kind to even remake the pizza for me great atmosphere!“
